Getting started

Vapoureyes NZ is the best place to get a vape starter kit and nicotine e-liquids.

What You Need to Get Started

Starting your vaping journey can feel overwhelming, but we're here to help. Here's what you'll need:

  1. A Good Quality Starter Kit

Choose from our selection of premium starter kits, including pod devices and mod devices. Below, we explain the differences to help you make the right choice.

What are Pod Devices?

Pod systems are simple and user-friendly, consisting of two parts: the battery and the pod. Here's a breakdown:

  • Battery: Provides power and typically includes a charge port, power button, and indicator lights.
  • Pod: Contains the coil and holds the e-liquid. Pods are refillable several times before needing replacement. You will know if it needs replacing as it will taste burnt.

What are Mod Devices?

Mods are more advanced and customisable than pod systems. Key components include:

  • Battery: Internal or removable, with USB charging or external battery chargers for removable options.
  • Mod: The device housing the battery, featuring adjustable settings for power, temperature, and more.
  • Atomiser: Contains the coil and e-liquid, with adjustable airflow for personalised vaping experiences.

What are Disposable Vapes?

Disposable vapes are pre-filled pod vapes, single-use devices that require no maintenance or refilling. They are ideal for beginners or those who want a hassle-free vaping experience. Once the e-liquid or battery is depleted, the device is discarded.

Are disposable vapes being banned??

From June 17, 2025, disposable vapes will no longer be available for distribution, manufacture, sale, or supply.

This ban applies to any vaping device that can’t be reused in any of the following ways:

  • If it can’t be refilled with e-liquid.
  • If it doesn’t use replaceable pods, cartridges, or similar containers.
  • If it can’t be recharged.

Pod-style devices that use replaceable, prefilled pods are not included in the ban—you’ll still be able to buy and use these.

This is a big shift, so make sure you’re prepared for the changes ahead! If you have any questions, we’re here to help.

What are Nicotine Salts?

Nicotine salts are a type of nicotine derived from natural tobacco leaves, designed for smoother and more satisfying vaping at higher nicotine strengths. They are ideal for low-powered pod systems and provide a quicker nicotine hit.

What is a Pod Mod Device?

A pod mod combines the portability of pod systems with the power and customisation of a mod. These devices often feature adjustable settings and use refillable pods for a versatile vaping experience.

What is a Coil?

The coil is the heating element inside your pod or tank. It vaporises the e-liquid into vapour. Over time, coils degrade and need to be replaced when the flavour diminishes or a burnt taste develops.

What is a Tank?

The tank is the component of a vape mod that holds the e-liquid and houses the coil. Tanks are often customisable, allowing users to adjust airflow and choose between different coil types for varied vaping experiences.

What is a Battery and Charger?

Batteries power your vaping device. It is essential to use high-quality, vape-specific batteries available on our website. Never use batteries from auto-shops or supermarkets, as they may not meet safety standards. Always charge your batteries using a compatible, high-quality charger to ensure safety and longevity.

A Few Bottles of E-Liquid

Explore our extensive range of flavours, all free from added sweeteners and colours, ensuring a clean vaping experience. For MTL (mouth to lung) devices, start with a 30ml bottle; DTL (direct to lung) devices may require a 60ml bottle for regular use.

  • Low strength products (direct to lung): 0mg - 6mg
  • High Strength products (mouth to lung): 12mg - 50mg

Tip: Stock up on at least 2-3 bottles to find your preferred flavours and avoid running out of e-liquid.

Replacement Coils or Pods

Coils are essential for maintaining vapour quality and flavour. Replace your coil or pod when you notice a burnt taste or diminished performance. Check compatibility before purchasing replacement parts. Let the liquid sit for up to 10 minutes before vaping. Even better, add the e-liquid directly to the cotton surrounding the coil to 'prime' the coil as the e-liquid needs to sink into the cotton, ensuring optimal performance.

Make sure not to add too much e-liquid or you will flood the coil; you need just enough to saturate it so it doesn’t burn when you fire it for the first time.

Important Regulatory Information

In compliance with New Zealand regulations, vaping devices will automatically time out after 10 minutes of inactivity. To reactivate your device, press the button or tap the USB port five times.
