Lung Hit

Curious about lung hit vaping? Let's dive in to find out what it’s all about! This style of vaping offers a unique experience with deeper inhales, bigger clouds, and more intense flavours compared to other methods.

What Is a Lung Hit?

A lung hit, also known as DTL (direct-to-lung) vaping, is a style of vaping where you inhale the vapour directly into your lungs, similar to taking a deep breath of air. In comparison to a throat hit, where you feel the sensation more in your throat, during a lung hit, the sensation is more present in your lungs.

This method provides a more intense flavour and a larger cloud of vapour compared to other inhaling techniques. It’s particularly popular among vapers who use sub-ohm devices and high-wattage mods, as it requires more power to produce larger vapour clouds.

The intensity of the hit can vary depending on several factors, including the PG/VG concentration, power setting, and airflow setting. Using e-liquids with a higher VG concentration helps to create thicker clouds, and higher power settings increase the intensity of the hit.

However, we would recommend using vape juiced with lower nicotine levels, as the direct inhalation method can deliver nicotine more efficiently. This style of vaping can give you a more satisfying hit, especially if you’re looking for that robust and full-flavoured experience.

    Can You Vape without Inhaling Directly into Your Lungs?

    Yes. This method is called mouth-to-lung (MTL) vaping, where you draw the vapour into your mouth first and then into your lungs. It feels similar to smoking a traditional cigarette and is preferred by beginners and former smokers seeking a familiar experience.

    What Devices Are Best to Achieve a Lung Hit?

    Devices that are best for achieving a lung hit are typically sub-ohm tanks and high-wattage mods. These devices usually come with adjustable airflow settings and can handle lower resistance coils, allowing for larger vapour production and a more intense experience. Examples include advanced box mods and pod systems designed for direct-to-lung vaping.
