You asked, and we delivered: A brand new, bigger device, with a huge tank and a long life battery.

Introducing, The Vibe. You can get it in both a starter kit and a deluxe starter kit.

If you're considering upgrading your hardware or buying your first kit, then the Vibe deluxe kit is perfect for you. It has everything you need to start your vaping journey.

The enhanced, curved lines produce an incredible hit, so we recommend selecting a lower nicotine strength when ordering nicotine e-liquid & with your new coils, allowing e-liquid to soak in for approximately 10 minutes.

CP left a review for the Vibe: "I received my Vaper Empire Vibe today and just wanted to say.. you guys got it right! It's awesome and I am one very happy customer. I have tried so many different appliances.. and all have been plagued with battery problems, leakage problems, coil issues, etc. I have been vaping for about 3 years now, and the Vibe is the best appliance I have used. "

A recent study that has come out of Georgetown University in the United States has found that the potential benefit of switching to vaping could mean a total of 86.7 million extra years to the lifespans of 6.6 million people.

The findings of the research will allegedly “ help the (United States) Surgeon General and the public health community develop a strategy to reach the ‘endgame’ for cigarette smoking,” the scientists said, according to reuters.com.

“Old policies need to be supplemented with policies that encourage substituting e-cigarettes for the far more deadly cigarettes,” said David Levy of Georgetown University Medical Center.

The research projected possible outcomes, and in the best case scenario, the study projected that 6.6 million cigarette smokers could avoid premature death by switching to vaping.  Additionally, even in the worst case scenario, a huge 1.6 million people could avoid premature death by quitting smoking and vaping instead.

“In addition (to lives saved), there would be tremendous health benefits including reduced disease disability to smokers, reduced pain and suffering, and reduced exposure to second hand smoke,” Levy said.

If you just started vaping, it may be tricky to get your head around all of the new terminology, the huge subculture and all of the unfamiliar products at your disposal. 

Or, if you've been vaping for a long time but just got a new vaporiser,  don't fear, we've made it as simple as possible for you to know when to change your coils and clearomisers for all of the Vaper Empire models.

Basically, coils and clearomiser wicks both degrade over time. And although they will still work, they will not produce vapour as effectively as if they're replaced as often as needed, and will produce a burning taste and can make it harder to inhale the vapour. Ideally, you should be changing your clearomiser wicks and coils regularly to avoid these.

Here is our guide on when you should be replacing your coils and clearomiser wicks for each Vaper Empire product:

Vantage Clearomisers

• CE4 Disposable Clearomiser - Change every 3 - 4 weeks for optimal use
• Vantage V5 Clearomiser Coils – Change every 3 - 4 weeks for optimal use

The Viva Titanium Clearomisers

• Change every 4 – 5 weeks for optimal use

V-Twist Clearomiser Coils

• Change every 3 - 4 weeks for optimal use

Venture Clearomiser Coils

• Change every 3 - 4 weeks

Vibe Clearomiser Coils

• Change every 2 - 3 weeks

Note – The V-Pack uses a cartomisers that contain 300 puffs and are then disposed of once they are exhausted.

E-cigarettes are "definitely" less harmful than smoking tobacco, health bodies in Scotland have stated for the first time, according to BBC.

NHS Health Scotland said it wanted to "clarify" confusion around the harms and benefits of vaping devices.

More than 20 organisations have signed up to the consensus, which was led by NHS Health Scotland.

But health chiefs said that using e-cigarettes while still smoking did not provide any health benefits.

The consensus statement, published by Scotland's national health education and promotion agency, was agreed by the Scottish government, health boards, academia and charities such as the British Lung Foundation and Cancer Research UK.

Dr Andrew Fraser, director of public health science at NHS Health Scotland, told BBC Scotland: "E-cigarettes have been around for a number of years now and we are learning more and more about them but I think it is safe to say that they are a lot safer than cigarettes.

"If we are trying to help people make a decision about giving up smoking tobacco then e-cigarettes are a good option to consider."

Dr Fraser said vaping was not available on NHS prescription, unlike some other treatments, but it was an option for those trying to give up smoking cigarettes.

"We would encourage people to consider them and we would encourage people providing smoking cessation serves to offer them as an option to people who are willing to pay for them," he said

Dr Fraser said he wanted to deliver a "positive" message for e-cigs, saying they "weren't anything like as dangerous as cigarettes".

He said there had been reports that likened the risk of vaping to smoking tobacco but this was not the case.

However, he added that e-cigarettes were not risk-free.

"They contain nicotine, which is addictive in itself, and they contain and a number of other combustible materials," Dr Fraser said.

"But if you take it all in the round and compare it with the alternative they are a lot less harmful than cigarettes."

He added that ideally vaping would be used a way to give up smoking entirely and he advised against "double running" - taking both tobacco and e-cigarettes.

Last year, Scotland's largest health board ruled that e-cigarettes could be used within the grounds of its hospitals.

NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde decided to allow restricted use of the devices after new evidence that they helped tackle tobacco smoking.

Tobacco smoking was banned across all health grounds in Scotland in April 2015, but health boards were given discretion over the use of vaping devices outside buildings.

Cancer chemicals

Sheila Duffy, chief executive of Ash Scotland, a charity aiming to reduce the harm caused by tobacco, said the joint statement on e-cigarettes brought "clarity" to the issue.

"There is now agreement that vaping e-cigarettes carries less risk than smoking tobacco," she said.

"Although we still don't know the long-term health effects of vaping, we can be confident that any smoker switching entirely to e-cigarettes will be taking in far fewer cancer-causing chemicals.

"Tobacco is lethal and I'd encourage anyone who smokes to find a way of quitting that works for them, which could include using e-cigarettes, and to make use of the free NHS stop-smoking support available to help."

You may or may not have heard of Vapers Tongue before. This recent Vaping phenomenon is the temporary dulling of the taste buds which can be a bit frustrating when you want to get the most out of your delicious E-liquids. If you’re experiencing your own little bout of ‘Vapers Tongue’ here are some tried and proven methods to get your taste buds brimming with flavour!

1. 1. Change the flavour of the e-liquid you're vaping
      Something as simple as changing out the e-liquid you're currently vaping can ease vapers tongue.

1. 1. Scrape your tongue
      Use a tongue scraper! You can buy them from supermarkets, chemists and online. Having a few of these handy may prove useful!

1. 1. Use a stronger, cleansing flavour
      Try a stronger flavour like Spearmint or Spring in Siberia! The strong menthol flavours can be very cleansing to the palette.

1. 1. Hydrate
      Drink your daily quota of water, this should help you to beat vapers tongue a lot faster.

1. 1. Smell some fresh coffee beans
      In perfume shops, there are often coffee beans to smell to cleanse the nostrils and similarly, when you have vapers tongue this can help to beat it and get your taste buds back in working order.

1. 1. Suck on a lemon wedge
      The shocking lemon wedge sourness may wake up your taste buds. Many vapers have said that this method works. If you don’t want to screw your face up this much try adding a good squeeze of lemon to your water for a more gradual solution.

1. 1. Chew some mint leaves
      Similar to lemon wedges, the strength of the flavour of mint leaves may help ease the effects of vapers tongue.

1. 1. Mouth wash
      This is one you are most likely to already have in your home. To beat vapers tongue, grab some mouthwash and use it as much as possible until the effects of vapers tongue wear off.

1. Allow time

It's no secret that vaping has helped countless people kick a lifelong cigarette addiction. Here are some of our favourite vaping success stories:

Adrian, a smoker for 50 years

Vaper Empire customer Adrian Coatman was a smoker for 50 years before trying vaping two years ago after watching a documentary on television. His documentary led him to google search vaping, and he stumbled upon Vaper Empire. Since making his first order, he's never looked back. He feels "100% better health-wise". Prior, he had tried endless marketing ploys to quit smoking, and nothing worked until he tried vaping.

Rick, saved a lot of money vaping

Rick Simmons was a smoker for 10 years before finding Vaper Empire online via a Google search. He decided to make an order and has since been vaping for three years. He's noticed a huge difference in his savings and feels a lot more healthy since he's been vaping. He also has a lot of positives to say about Vaper Empire products and customer service.

Richard, whose son got him into vaping

Richard Shillabeer's son found Vaper Empire online and convinced his dad to try it. Richard had smoked for almost all of his life before. Now, Richard rates Vaper Empire products and customer service as 100% and has been vaping for over 2 years.

Marian, who has smoked 50 of her 69 years

Marian was a long-time smoker before her daughter introduced her to Vaper Empire after finding the website online. After four years of using Vaper Empire E-liquids and E-cigarettes, Marian feels so much better in her physical health.

These personal stories were gathered by our customer service team. If you have a vaping success story you'd like to share, we'd love to hear it! If you have friends or family who you think could benefit from vaping as these people have, consider sharing Vaper Emire with them so they can perhaps realise a success story of their own.

The public health group, Action on Smoking and Health (ASH), in the U.K, have found that e-cigarettes have been a huge success in converting people from Tobacco to less harmful e-liquid. The study also found that a further 1.3 million people are currently dual users (vaping and smoking) but haven't completely quit (yet). These are astounding figures considering Vaping has only become popular in the last few years.

As the article explains, certain segments of the population are still confused about the benefits of Vaping and the huge harm reduction of e-cigarettes. This is mainly due to irresponsible media reporting. There is now overwhelming evidence that e-cigarettes are at least 95% less harmful than tobacco but some smokers are not aware of this fact. Despite these unbelievably encouraging figures, Australia still maintains its prohibition on the domestic sale of nicotine e-liquid which is a disastrous public health policy. Let's hope to see a change and easy access for Aussies who want to explore a less harmful alternative to tobacco.

A lot of people have been waiting for confirmation that making the switch from traditional cigarettes to electronic cigarettes is safe.

You have to watch this video from the ‘Good Morning Britain’ which examines new evidence on Vaping Vs Smoking and the results are amazing.

It’s yet another study that suggests Vaping is at least 95% less harmful than smoking.

The study found:

• Tobacco causes 103 GENE CHANGES in lung tissue
• Vaping causes 2 GENE CHANGES in lung tissue!

Gene changes are important because they have potential to cause cancer so Vaping reduces the risk of these changes by more than 95% and that’s something to smile about.

Happy vaping!
