Best Cheap E-Liquid Concentrates Kits for 2022 (UK)

You’d have to be blind to miss the spiralling price rises of recent months. From cooking oil to the electricity powering the device you are reading this on right now, everything seems to be going up in price.

Fortunately, not only is vaping much cheaper than smoking, it is also one area that seems resistant to price rises (so far!) In fact, buying a good disposable vape kit costs less than it did a decade ago, and you can buy a reasonable device for less than a tenner. Sure, it won’t have all the bells and whistles of the fanciest devices – but at the end of the day, what’s important is it delivers the nicotine needed to keep you off cigarettes.

So in this post we’ve selected a range of vape kits to suit every budget, along with some handy tips to ensure costs are low in the long term, not just when you buy your first kit!

Two things not to compromise on when buying a cheap E-Liquid Concentrates kit

While saving money is important, there are some areas where it’s best not to compromise – as doing so can end up being more costly in the long term! These are:

Choose a reliable brand

When it comes to vaping, brands matter. Getting the details of vaping right – the coil, the anti-leaking mechanisms, that feeling on the back of your throat – is tricky. Some brands have spent years working on these details, and it’s worth sticking with the ones that (mostly!) get it right. Fortunately, most of these brands also produce very reasonably priced devices.

Make sure it’s legal

There’s another reason not to buy just any old thing from a market stall! Not all devices available in the UK are legal – some have been smuggled in. And that matters, because UK regulations require all devices to undergo testing before they can go on sale. This testing helps eliminate toxins, meaning legal vape devices are as safe as possible. In contrast, illegal devices could produce more toxins, and contain E-Liquid Concentrates that contain banned or harmful substances.

5 tips for saving money when you E-Liquid Concentrates

As you may have gathered from this post so far, if you really want to save money, you need to think about more than the cost of the initial purchase. The cheapest devices to buy are often some of the most expensive to maintain in the long run. Here’s five things to consider…

1. Avoid disposable vapes

Disposable vapes can appear cheap, but that’s not actually the case. In fact, 1ml of e-liquid in a disposable vape often costs more than 10ml of e-liquid for use in a refillable device. It’s well worth spending a little more on a reusable device – and reaping long term savings from doing so.

2. Use refillable devices

As we’ve touched on before, using refillable pods or tanks is the next step on your journey to becoming a savvy budget vaper. Pre-filled pods are better value than disposables, but buying e-liquid and refilling your device yourself represents better value again.

3. Choose replaceable coils

The final step is to choose devices with replaceable coils. Many vapers are worried this will be fiddly, but vaping technology has come a long way in recent years. With most devices, push-fit coil technology means you no longer need to unscrew the coil – so for a few seconds of your time, you no longer need to replace the whole tank, but can replace just one part of it instead.

4. Add e-liquid to get to the free shipping threshold

Many sites offer free shipping over a threshold. For example, at E-Cigarette Direct you can free 48 hour tracked shipping on orders over £15.00 and free 24 hour tracked shipping on orders over £20.00 – meaning you can often get a cheap bottle of e-liquid by increasing your order slightly.

5. Look for sales and clearance

Finally, it’s a great idea to keep an eye out on vape sales and clearance pages. The wonder device of last year is still a great device, but can often be picked up for a bargain price by the savvy shopper.
