I hate juul. I support traditional vape. Juul just seems like a horrible company with horrible intentions.

I'm not familiar with nicotine vaping. How is juul different from "traditional vape"? Not trying to degrade your post by use of quote marks, I'm just not sure what is meant by that term. Did people use to vape tobacco by by grinding leaves and using an oven vape - like vaping cannabis in, e.g. a PAX 3?

  As far as I can tell they have 10x or 20x the nicotine strength of normal vapes, and a much harder hit. Juul seem to be 59mg/ml, most regular juice I've come across has been 12, 6 or 3. Highest I ever saw, online, was 18. Highest I ever tried was 12, which was recommended to start when I switched from a 20 a day cigarette habit, in a simple pen vape. I couldn't tolerate it for longer than about a week before dropping down to the next juice down. Traditional vapes break into 2 types. Pen vapes don't produce much heat so liquids tend to be a bit stronger. They'd use mostly 6, 12 or 18 strength liquids. Vape mods (silly name as they're not modified, so I don't know what the mod is meant to mean) have a larger battery pack with separate tank and lower resistance coil. They're usually a fair bit larger than any pen or cigarette. These produce much more vapour so usual strengths are 3 and 6. I would expect Juul to be at the lower end of vapour amount as the cartridges are so tiny. I can't imagine the hit from Juul, and can't imagine ever trying one. It'd be like chain smoking 4 cigs. I quit vaping totally already anyway. :) They haven't yet launched in the UK, but I'm doubtful they'd be allowed at that strength. (Israel banned them, having set max strength at 20mg/ml). Juul seem around 10x the price too. I used to pay £1 - £2 for 10ml of juice that would last well over a week, often 2. Juul cartridges are tiny, $4 each but supposedly last about a day or two. Last, but not least, they're 40% owned by Philip Morris (Marlboro).

    Juul seems to have much smaller battery than vape "pens". It also does not produce nearly as much vapor. Their whole innovation is formaliting high concentration juice which would not make you barf (using a different nicotine-derived compound than the pure nicotine in the original e-juice) so it could be used in a low power device.

What's the difference between vape and juul? I thought they are the same thing - just a brand?
