Vapes have been the hot new thing for some time in the UK. Various smokers all around the country have tuned into this activity, purchasing various types of vape devices.

For smokers who usually enjoy their daily nicotine hit at home, the big rechargeable vape devices have been the obvious choice. However, others who prefer to satisfy their nicotine needs while on the go have had to contend between buying small and discrete disposable vapes or buying a larger rechargeable and refillable device.

Smokers who opt for disposable vape devices are usually concerned about the device's lifespan due to the sleek and small nature of the devices. This post will help answer the question "How long do disposable devices last" by considering all the factors that can affect the duration of a disposable vape.

So, without further ado, let's get started!

How long do disposable vapes last?

The question of how long disposable vapes last has plagued many new vapers, especially those that are yet to or are trying out a disposable vape for the first time. Most manufacturers usually state that their product can last for about 400 to 600 puffs depending on the brand.

However, brands like Vont produce premium disposable vapes that can last up to 600 puffs which is the equivalent of more than 3 packs of cigarettes. Regardless of the number of puffs quoted by a manufacturer, the actual number of puffs obtained from a disposable vape device hinges on a combination of various factors. Some of which include:

1. Battery:

The battery is the powerhouse of any battery-powered vape device. It supplies the current that the coil uses to vaporize the e-liquid contained in the device. Disposable devices usually have a battery capacity of about 250mah to 400mah.

However, the exact battery capacity of any disposable device will depend on the device's specification and the amount of e-liquid contained in the device. For example, most disposable devices with a 1ml e-juice capacity usually receive the lower end of the battery.

In contrast, high-end devices like the Vont-to-go device come with a battery large enough to vaporize the entire content of its 2ml e-juice tank. You can learn more about the battery capacity of disposable vape devices from our detailed guide on the best disposable vapes.

2. Tank capacity:

The tank capacity of a disposable vape device is one of the most critical factors that determine the lifespan of any disposable vape device. As we mentioned above, some devices come with a 1ml e-juice capacity while others come with a maximum of 2ml e-juice capacity.

This capacity coincides with UK laws prohibiting disposable vapes from containing more than 2ml of e-juice per device. That being said, a device with a smaller e-juice capacity would last for a shorter time than one with a larger e-juice capacity.

Therefore, if you're a heavy vaper, we recommend you go for a device with a larger e-juice capacity of about 2ml. Or alternatively, you can opt for a sleek rechargeable vape like the Vont one device that comes with a 3-pod system that allows you to vape for as long as you like by simply switching between pods.

On the other hand, if you're a light vape that uses their vape sparsely, a 1ml disposable vape device might just do the job for you.

3. Puff frequency:

Puff frequency refers to the rate at which you take puffs from your disposable device. When used normally, disposable devices last around 3 to 5 days. However, this figure can reduce if you take more frequent puffs throughout the day. As a result, your puff frequency can significantly impact the lifespan of your disposable vape.

4. Length of draw:

When inhaling from a vape device, it is usually advisable to take short intermittent draws. This gives the wick enough time to become saturated with e-juice while giving the coil some resting time.

On the other hand, when you take long slow draws:

All these factors can considerably shorten the lifespan of your disposable vape device and give you a less enjoyable vaping experience.

Now that we've answered the question of how long disposable vapes last, here are answers to some other FAQs that have been asked by new and old vapers alike.

How many cigarettes are equal to a disposable vape

A cigarette usually gives around 6.5 to 9 puffs depending on the brand of the cigarette. For disposable vapes with around 400 to 600 puffs per device, this figure equals about 2 packs of cigarettes per device. However, for brands like Vont that boast up to 800 puffs on their disposable device, the figure increases to about 3 plus packs of cigarettes, assuming a pack of cigarettes contains 20 cigarettes.

How much nicotine is in a disposable vape

According to UK laws, disposable devices have a maximum of about 20mg/ml of e-juice. However, this strength varies widely across manufacturers, with some brands providing an option of 0mg/ml of nicotine for users who prefer their e-juice without nicotine.

What to do if your disposable vape pen runs out of battery or juice unexpectedly

If your disposable vape runs out of battery or juice unexpectedly, the only thing to do is dispose of the device and switch to a more reliable brand. However, if you own a rechargeable device like the Vont one device, you can recharge the battery whenever it runs down or click in a new e-juice pod once the old one gets exhausted.

The Bottomline

The lifespan of a disposable vape is largely dependent on the battery, tank capacity, and usage of the user. However, most vapes can last for about 3 to 5 days with about 400 to 600 puffs depending on the brand.

If you've been using a subpar disposable vape device, or your disposable vape device has not been serving you properly, your best bet is to switch to a more reputable brand that can satisfy your nicotine needs!
