In this article we are going to know about, “how to know when a disposable is empty?” and know about the cues without relying on e-liquid indicators.
Unlike traditional vapes, disposables often lack battery or e-juice indicators, leaving vapers to rely on subtle cues. In this comprehensive guide, we'll uncover the subtleties within identifying when a disposable vape pen is nearly empty, covering key indicators and providing tips to enhance your vaping experience.
Factors indicating empty disposable vape:
1. Flashing LED Light/ LED display levels
This is the easiest way forward. Most disposables have an indicator light. When the vape juice levels are low, we can see that the indicator blinks after each puff and mostly in the colour of red. Take this as a “time of action”.
2. Diminished Flavour
It is common that when at the e-liquid is at its end, the coil does not soak to its capacity and you will get less flavour than before. Do not confuse here with burnt taste. As the flavour becomes less intense and fails to provide a full flavour experience. This significant drop is an indication of less e-liquid.
3. Weak, Harsh, or Burnt Hits
When vape liquid reduces, it gives lesser throat hit, lower vapor quality, and a less harsher experience.
When the e-liquid is completely run out, you get a direct burnt taste due to burning of the wick.
4. Decrease vapor production
You can observe the decrease in standard vapor production and then followed by a continuous decrease in vapor production. Do not compare this with battery level. In many cases, the battery may still have some power left even when e-liquid has run out.
5. Dry Hits
This happens when you have very low e-liquid to flow through the coil. You get a complete dry hit with no flavour taste.
6. Less Airflow
The airflow becomes less smooth or feels different when inhaling. It could be because of the lack of e-liquid, making the airflow feel lighter or more restrictive. This you can only identify by assessing the draw sensation.
