Choosing The Best Vape to Quit Smoking

Are you a smoker looking to make the switch to vaping? With the vast range of options available, choosing the best vape to quit smoking with can be daunting. Don’t worry, we are here to guide you through choosing the best vape for your personal needs.

The best vape for quitting smoking is subjective and there's no 'one size fits all' option. Every smoker and vaper is different and you may prefer certain features and functionality. However, with a bit of reflection on your requirements, you can quickly narrow down your options.

Why Do You Want to Quit Smoking With a Vape?

The first thing to ask yourself is, why are you choosing a vape to quit smoking? The most common reason will be for the harm reduction compared with cigarettes. The NHS states that vaping "poses a small fraction of the risk of smoking cigarettes" and explains that "E-cigarettes do not produce tar or carbon monoxide, two of the most harmful elements in tobacco smoke." The NHS also actively encourages vapes to help smokers quit and the UK government has committed to a 'Swap to Stop' campaign whereby one million smokers will be offered a free vape kit.

Beyond the health reasons, there are also other benefits of vaping over smoking. If any of the following reasons apply to you, then they may have a bearing on your best vape to quit smoking with.

• Cost savings
• Enjoy strong flavours
• Convenience and Ease of use
• Reduce nicotine strength and become nicotine free

We'll work through the reasons and hand-pick some vapes which should help you on your quit smoking journey.
