How to Refill Your E-Cigarettes with E-Liquid

E-cigarettes are becoming an increasing popular way to get a nicotine buzz without smoking. These convenient devices contain a special e-liquid that produces a smokeless vapor when inhaled. You can choose between electronic cigarettes that come with pre-filled e-liquid cartridges or a reusable e-cig where you can refill the e-liquid. Refilling your own e-cigarette can be tricky to a novice, but it helps save money and allows you to experiment with different flavors. Here is an easy how-to guide to refilling electronic cigarettes with e-liquid from the convenience of your home.

Tips for Refilling Your E-liquid

• The amount of e-cigarette liquid needed to fill a cartridge is completely up to your discretion; you will need to experiment to find the amount that gives you the most satisfying taste.
