Different Types Of Nicotine Vapes

So, the first thing about a vape is that it has 2 categories: Nicotine & Cannabis vapes.

• Nicotine vapes 'e-cigarettes': Handheld device. Has lithium-ion batteries to allow smoking without combustion. Has nicotine options like 0% up to 5%, with massive flavors from tobacco to desserts to even unflavored! Mostly used by someone who is looking to quit smoking for good.
• Cannabis/CBD vapes: Larger device. Has batteries or electrical power. People use this device with CBD, THC, or other dry herbs to concentrate.
