Can You Refill Disposable Vapes?

Disposable vape pens (see our affordable disposable pods) can provide you with an exhilarating smoking experience. You get to inhale and taste the e-juice flavour of your choice, with or without the pleasant nicotine hit. Disposable e-cigs are convenient as well, and most of all, they are affordable.

When your vape runs out of e-juice, you will have to buy another cartridge to refill it. Then again, if you want to save extra money, you can refill the cartridge that is already on your device. It can be tricky, but the key to this is to refill this component without breaking it.

Before proceeding on to doing this task, however, there are some things that you have to know about e-cigs or vape pens and cartridges, along with the process of refilling them.

Typically, most vape pens and their cartridges look similar and work in the same way (See our Ice Lemon Pods, energy disposable vape, Apple Ice Vape, peach ice vape, blueberry disposable pen and orange ice vape). There are e-cigarettes that use a particular type of cartridge, too, and you might want to do your research about it. What does it take to refill the specific cartridge of your vape?

Likewise, cartridges are of different sorts, and some of them may not be able to be refilled. There are types of these vape components that simply break when you try to open them, or there are those wherein breaking is the only means of opening them. This means that their cartridges cannot be used anymore, so be aware of these specifications before proceeding on to doing the task.

Another thing that you have to consider when refilling a disposable vape pen is that you might not be able to perfect it on the first try. In this case, you would need more practice, so hang in there!

Refilling a disposable e-cigor mint disposable vape pen basically makes your vaping experience cheaper than it already is, and it is an easy process when you use a syringe. If you don’t have a syringe, an eye-dropper will do.

How To Refill Your Disposable E-Cigarette

Step One: Open The Vape Pen

You’ll need to unscrew the e-cig mouthpiece for this initial step by twisting it off. Fully rotate the mouthpiece counterclockwise for at least three times until the thread that keeps it in place is loosened. If you are unable to do this, then it means that you cannot refill the cartridge. Otherwise, remove the mouthpiece entirely and place it somewhere safe.

Step Two: Fill the Cartridge With Oil

Use a syringe, if possible, to fill the cartridge with oil. A syringe is a better option than an eye-dropper for preventing leaks. The cartridge should be kept attached to the battery to reduce the chances of accidents. Take note of how large the cartridge is to avoid overfilling, and usually, most of them hold 0.5 grams or 1 gram of e-juice.

Step Three: Screw The Mouthpiece Back In Place

Set the mouthpiece fully in place, and firmly screw it on. Be careful so as not to do it too tightly, or else, you might break the cartridge.

Voila! There goes your easy 1-2-3 steps for refilling a disposable vape pen. It is relatively cheaper to go by this way, but you have to learn to perfect the process and make sure that the cartridge is refillable (have you seen the voom vape pro?).

Disposable vapes are incredibly popular with adult vapers left in the lurch by the federal ban on flavored vape pods, but they are just one time use devices. Vapers love their form factor and convenience, lending itself to the big question – can you refill a disposable vape?

Can you refill a disposable vape with water?

Disposable Vapes

The number of puffs you can get from a disposable are contingent on three factors: eJuice capacity, coil resistance/power output and battery life. All brands offer a wide variety of disposable vape styles that range from massive 10ml disposable vapes all the way to small stick style disposables.

The similarities between disposable lines crosses over to flavors as well. The reason Mi-Pod carries so many different disposable types is because of this flavor overlap. Even if your favorite disposable eCig is sold out, you can probably find a comparable flavor from another product line.

Refilling a Disposable Vape

Depending on the quality of the disposable vape, it is nearly impossible to refill most disposable vape pens. However, there are certain disposable vapes that are easier to access for refilling than others. We do not recommend refilling a disposable vape because it really makes no sense and is not designed to be opened. You will probably need at least a paper clip and maybe a small screw driver to pop-open the mouthpiece to start the process.

If you have nic salt vape juice on hand, why not put it into a refillable device that is meant to be filled or obtain a new disposable. It can also be a bit messy and time consuming as the eJuice is typically stored in cotton polyfill and not a pod.

Higher quality disposable vapes are often more difficult to pry open than lower quality disposable vapes. The problem with this is that the lower quality disposable vapes often are made with lower quality batteries that will not hold a charge for another fill of vape juice.

In order to refill a disposable vape, you will need to pry open the top of the device and lift the silicone piece off of the top of the device with a paperclip or similar tool. Next, fill with a nic salt juice into the polyfill material found inside of the device. You will need to avoid dripping vape juice down the center tube. This is the airflow tube you will get spitback and leakage from anything that falls into this.

Why Refill a Disposable Vape?

There is really no reason to fill a disposable vape. Unlike a prefilled vape pod kit, a disposable vape usually cannot be recharged. Therefore, you are taking a risk of wasting your vape juice after filling the device with eJuice and having no way of extracting it.

Most of the rechargeable disposable vape devices on the market are nearly impossible to re-open, so it is not recommended.

We would never recommend refilling a disposable vape when it always makes more sense to simply purchase a refillable vape pod kit designed for that purpose. It will have better performance, flavor, and the ability to be recharged and the added bonus of actually being designed to be refilled. If you are planning on refilling a disposable vape, you clearly already have nic salt vape juice on hand and are willing to fill a device.
