The difference between an MTL (Mouth To Lung) and a DTL (Direct To Lung) electronic cigarette relates to the type of inhalation. With MTL, the vapour is first held in the mouth before being inhaled, as with a traditional cigarette. With DTL, the vapour is inhaled directly into the lungs, producing a greater volume of vapour, like a shisha. MTL is often recommended for new vapers who wish to stop smoking, while DTL is aimed at more experienced vapers who have already successfully made their transition from tobacco to vaping.

For beginners, it is advisable to choose an electronic cigarette that is easy to use, with few settings, moderate power and a tight draw (MTL). "Pod" kits or starter kits are generally the most suitable for a successful first experience. However, some new vapers who are comfortable with settings and maintenance may prefer to opt for adjustable, upgradeable equipment. It all depends on each person's confidence level.

A heavy smoker will need a reliable electronic cigarette offering good battery life (between 1200 and 5000 mAh) and a tight draw to better absorb nicotine and avoid cravings. Versatile kits compatible with MTL and RDL (tight or slightly airy draw) are often an excellent compromise for an effective transition to vaping. This electronic cigarette should be paired with nicotine salt e-liquids to effectively satisfy cravings.

The lifespan of an electronic cigarette depends on its quality, maintenance and frequency of use. On average, a well-maintained kit can last several months or even several years, with only the wear parts such as coils or cartridges needing replacement. It is estimated that the lithium battery inside an electronic cigarette has an optimal lifespan of 300 charge/discharge cycles before gradually declining. To extend this lifespan, make sure to charge your electronic cigarette using mains sockets of a maximum of 1A (unless the manufacturer specifies otherwise) in order to minimise heat build-up in the electronics.

Good news! Electronic cigarettes are becoming increasingly accessible to all budgets, and you are in the right place at Le Vapoteur Discount to enjoy the best prices on the web. The average price of an electronic cigarette is estimated at 35 euros. You will find electronic cigarettes for as little as 10 euros for the smallest models, and up to 80 euros for the most advanced ones.

The electronic cigarette is considered significantly less harmful than traditional cigarettes, as it does not involve combustion. It is primarily used as an alternative to tobacco to reduce the risks associated with smoking. It is often described as "a healthier alternative" to tobacco or a "cessation aid" for traditional cigarettes. When used correctly (preferably in MTL mode), paired with good e-liquids (French-made and certified) and maintained regularly (cleaning and coil replacement every 2 weeks), it becomes a very effective smoking cessation tool — unlike tobacco, which is extremely harmful.

Many smokers use the electronic cigarette as a smoking cessation tool. By reproducing the gesture, the sensation, the inhalation and the nicotine intake, it facilitates a gradual transition away from tobacco. Success depends on using it in an appropriate way: the right inhalation (MTL), the right flavour, the right nicotine level, the right design and a level of maintenance that suits the vaper. Every smoker is unique and will require a strategy tailored to their needs, but the latest studies (such as the Cochrane study of 1 March 2025) show that: "Nicotine e-cigarettes can help people stop smoking for at least six months. Evidence suggests they work better than nicotine replacement therapies, and probably better than nicotine-free e-cigarettes.". The use of nicotine salt e-liquids may also be an advantage: "However, we still need evidence, particularly on the effects of newer types of e-cigarettes that deliver nicotine better than older ones, as better nicotine delivery could help more people stop smoking."

Most electronic cigarettes offer automatic power adjustment by detecting the coil resistance value (auto or smart mode). Other models offer the option of precise manual adjustment. To find the right power setting for your electronic cigarette, check the recommendations printed on the coil (or pod cartridge). There you will find the recommended power range for optimal use. Tip: if your coil is new, leave it submerged in the e-liquid for a few minutes so it does not burn on first use. Also set the power to the lowest end of the manufacturer's recommended range for the first few puffs.

Maintaining an electronic cigarette is straightforward. It mainly involves cleaning the tank or cartridge and replacing the coil when it is worn out. Regular maintenance ensures a healthier vape, better performance and a longer lifespan. On average, a coil should be changed every 2 to 3 weeks at most. Take the opportunity to thoroughly clean your clearomiser or cartridge. The drip tip alone can be cleaned with soapy water every day if you wish.

An electronic cigarette with a built-in battery charges directly via a USB cable and is simple to use. Models with removable batteries allow you to replace the battery, often offering greater autonomy, more power and better longevity, but require a little more initial cost, knowledge and equipment to safely charge and carry those batteries.

Yes, it is permitted to carry an electronic cigarette on a plane, but only in the cabin. It must be switched off and not used during the flight. Batteries are not allowed in the hold for safety reasons. As for your e-liquids, they must not exceed 100 ml to travel with you in the cabin. Remember to carry your e-liquid bottles and your clearomiser (or pod cartridge) in a sealed plastic bag. These can leak due to the change in pressure inside the aircraft.

If you are travelling abroad, remember to check the legislation regarding electronic cigarettes. Some countries prohibit their use and may expose you to fines (examples in 2026: Cambodia, India, Laos, Qatar, Singapore, Thailand). Others allow possession of an electronic cigarette, but you will not find vape shops to purchase your e-liquids.
