Questions we are asked about salt nic versus freebase

How long does a unit of Element e-liquid last in normal use?

For a typical adult user the answer sits between 10 and 19 days, depending on draw length and power setting. Heavy users will be at the short end of that range, which is worth knowing when you plan reorder volumes.

How should Element e-liquid be stored to protect shelf life?

Cool, dark and sealed. Heat and direct sunlight degrade both nicotine and flavour well before the printed date, and a shop window is the worst place in the building to keep stock for any length of time.

What is the minimum order for Element e-liquid?

Mixed cases start at 30 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.

Are there different versions of Element e-liquid for different markets?

Yes, and it matters. Strength ceilings, bottle sizes and notification requirements differ between markets, so the version supplied is matched to the destination at the point of order rather than afterwards.
