Questions we are asked about salt nic versus freebase

What causes a burnt taste with Element e-liquid?

Nine times out of ten it is priming. A coil that has not been saturated before first use, or a tank run dry, will scorch the wicking and that taste does not go away. Fitting a new coil and waiting a few minutes before the first draw prevents it entirely.

Is Element e-liquid suitable for someone switching from cigarettes?

It can be, and it is one of the more common routes. The deciding factors are the draw style and the strength: a tighter draw with a mid strength is what most switchers settle on, and staff who ask what the customer currently smokes tend to get the match right first time.

What is the minimum order for Element e-liquid?

Mixed cases start at 100 units, which is deliberately low enough for a single shop to test demand. The discount steps begin after that, and the tier table is available on request before you commit to anything.

How do I check that a batch of Element e-liquid is genuine?

Every retail unit carries a scratch code that can be checked against the production record. A code that fails twice, packaging with inconsistent print, or a price well below the normal floor are the three signals that should stop a purchase.
