Is OB Vape the cheapest vape store in Ireland?

Yes! At OB Vape, we pride ourselves on offering the lowest prices in Ireland on disposables, e-liquids, vape kits, and nicotine pouches. If you find a better price, email us at info@obvape.ie — we’ll match it. We also offer next-day delivery across Ireland.

What are the strongest nicotine pouches in Ireland?

OB Vape is Ireland’s number one store for high-strength nicotine pouches. We stock popular brands like PABLO (50mg), ICEBERG (50mg), and Greatest Cold Dry. These pouches are 100% tobacco-free and perfect for discreet, smoke-free nicotine.

What nicotine strength should I choose when switching from disposables?

Most disposable vapes in Ireland contain 20mg nicotine salts, which is equivalent to strong 10ml nic salt e-liquids. If you’re switching to a refillable kit, choose a 10mg or 20mg nic salt for a similar hit. You’ll save money and get more flavour.

Our Guide To Switching From Disposable Vapes to Refillable Pod Vapes

If you’ve been using disposable vapes, you’ve probably noticed how convenient they are—but also how quickly they add up in cost. Switching to a refillable pod kit is one of the smartest upgrades you can make.

Quick Answer: To switch from disposables, choose a pod kit, fill it with nicotine salts, and enjoy better flavour, lower costs, and more control over your vape.

Why Switch From Disposable Vapes?

While disposable vapes are simple, they come with downsides:

Higher long-term cost
Limited flavour options
More waste

Switching to a pod kit solves all of these issues.

What Is a Refillable Pod Vape?

A refillable pod vape is a reusable device where you fill the pod with your own e-liquid.

Rechargeable battery
Replaceable pods or coils
Much more cost-effective

Step-by-Step: How to Switch

1. Choose the Right Pod Kit

Look for a simple, reliable device like the Vaporesso XROS range, Uwell Caliburn, or Aspire GoTek.

2. Pick Your E-Liquid

If you’re coming from disposables, start with nic salts for a similar smooth hit.

20mg if you were a heavy user
10mg for lighter use

3. Fill Your Pod

Open the pod, fill it with e-liquid, and let it sit for a few minutes.

4. Start Vaping

Most modern pod kits are draw-activated, just like disposables.

Cost Comparison: Disposable vs Pod Kit

Disposables: €7–€10 per device
Nic salts: €6–€8.50 per bottle

Over time, switching to a refillable system saves a significant amount of money.
