How to Save Money: Disposables vs Refillable Vapes, which is Cheaper?

How much do disposable e-cigarettes cost?

From Elf Bars to IVG’s, disposable e-cigarettes are popular for their small size and simplicity, like the 600-puff pack you can order for around $7 (£6). But if you want to puff 1,500 puffs or more, you’ll be looking at $14 per disposable vape minimum, and that’s where the money starts to pile up.

Fortunately, for most casual vapers, these smaller 600 puff sticks with 2ml of e-liquid will last about 2-3 days, with less than 1% of vapers being able to vape at 24 Finished one in an hour.

If you’re one of the recreational vapers we mentioned earlier, you’re still spending $855 to $1,280 a year on these seemingly low-cost devices.

How much does it cost to buy a vape starter kit?

Whether you are new to vaping or a disposable enthusiast looking for a more cost-effective way to vape, the vape starter kit is perfect.

There are plenty of good brands out there, and you can buy a quality starter kit like the award-winning VooPoo Drag Q pod kit for just $30, which comes in a complete package including a modular, reusable pod canister and replaceable coils.

For as little as $23.99, you can find pocket-sized pod kits like the Uwell Caliburn G2 and Vaporesso XROS 2 that include the disposable pods and the device itself.

Save money by using a refillable device?

When asking yourself this question, figuring out how much you spend on disposables each month is always a good place to start.

Once you’ve bought your shiny new starter kit and two 30ml sticks of delicious vape juice for about $30, you’re spending $50 for a month’s worth of e-cigarettes.

Sound like a lot?

Conversely, if we look at vapers who consume an average of 2ml of e-liquid every 2-3 days, a month of disposable vaping will cost you as much as $70-105.

In the world of vape kits, your first month will always be the most expensive due to the cost of the initial equipment and the cost of sourcing your favorite e-liquid.

After that, the expenses to keep in mind will be new coils ($5 every 1-2 weeks) and new vape juices, about $30 a month, which is significantly less than the total cost of disposables.

Refillable vape kits cost the average user around $380 (£310) a year. From this perspective, if you tend to buy 5 or more disposable e-cigarettes per month, you will benefit financially from switching to refillable e-cigarettes.
