My E-Liquids 100ML ShortfillWhat Are Shortfills?
Shortfills are large bottles of vape liquids that are left partly empty so you can add your own nicotine shot if needed. It’s the best option for vapers who want big bottles and flexibility without breaking TPD rules in the UK. Here is a technical overview of shortfills:
- A shortfill vape juice is usually sold in a 60ml or 120ml bottle, but only filled with 50ml or 100ml (respectively) of nicotine-free e-liquid.
- This leaves space for adding nicotine shots, usually 10ml per 50ml of liquid.
- They’re completely legal under the Tobacco Products Directive (TPD), which limits the sale of nicotine-containing e-liquids to 10ml bottles.
- Shortfills come in high-VG ratios, with many now offering 50/50 shortfills for different setups.
- They’re ideal for vapers who want more liquid per bottle and don’t mind mixing in their own nicotine.
How to Use Shortfills?
Using a shortfill vape juice is easy. It doesn’t require any tools, and you don’t need to be an expert to get it right. Here’s how to do it step by step:
- Remove the cap and nozzle: Most shortfill bottles come with a childproof cap and a press-fit nozzle. Gently wiggle the nozzle out using your fingers or the edge of a flat tool.
- Add your nicotine shot: A 50ml shortfill e-liquid needs one 10ml nicotine shot (18mg) to make 3mg strength. A 100ml shortfill needs two nic shots of the same strength. If you prefer 6mg, you’ll need a higher-strength base.
- Refit the nozzle and cap: Once the nic shot is in, push the nozzle back in and close the cap tightly.
- Shake the bottle: Give it a solid shake for at least 30 seconds to mix the shortfill and nicotine shot properly.
- Let it steep (if needed): Some flavours (like desserts or custards) may need a few hours to settle and develop fully. Others are good to vape straight away.
- Fill your tank or pod: You’re now ready to vape. Just make sure your device is suited to the VG/PG ratio you’ve chosen.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are shortfills cheaper than buying 10ml bottles?
Yes, buying shortfill vape juice is often more economical in the long run. A 100ml shortfill with two nicotine shots gives you 120ml of juice. In comparison, buying twelve 10ml bottles with nicotine costs more and creates more plastic waste. If you vape regularly and know your flavours, shortfills save both money and hassle. They’re also easier to store and carry around than multiple small bottles, and the added flexibility lets you adjust the strength and mix your own way.
How to add Nic Shot to shortfill?
First, remove the nozzle from the bottle. Then pour in a 10ml nic shot (18mg); for a 50ml shortfill, this creates a 3mg nicotine level. After that, secure the lid and shake the bottle for at least 30 seconds. That’s it. If you’re using a 100ml shortfill, double up on the nic shots to get the same strength.
Can you mix flavours in a shortfill?
Yes, but it needs to be done carefully. You can combine different shortfill flavours or even add flavour shots if the liquid is unflavoured. Make sure the profiles are complementary; fruits tend to mix well, but blending a dessert with menthol might not suit all palates. Always test a small amount first before mixing entire bottles. Shaking thoroughly and allowing it to settle helps the flavours come together. Avoid mixing 50-50 vape juice with high VG unless your coil can handle it.
How long does a 100ml shortfill last?
It depends on how often you vape, your device type, and your power settings. A 100ml shortfill could last a moderate vaper between one to two weeks. For heavy vapers using sub-ohm tanks at high wattages, it might only last a few days.
Can you use shortfill without nicotine?
Yes, you can vape a shortfill just as it is, without adding any nicotine. Shortfills are designed to be nicotine-free until you decide to mix in a nicotine shot. If you prefer zero nicotine, simply skip the nic shot and shake the bottle before use. Make sure your device is suited to the VG/PG ratio of the liquid you’re using, especially if it’s a 50 50 vape juice.
What is the VG/PG ratio in a shortfill?
The VG/PG ratio in a shortfill is the mix of vegetable glycerine (VG) and propylene glycol (PG) used as the base of the e-liquid. Most shortfills are made with higher VG content, which produces thicker vapour and works best with sub-ohm devices. This thicker consistency delivers more vapour on each inhale and is ideal for direct-to-lung vaping. The ratio can vary depending on the flavour and intended use, so it’s always best to check the label on the bottle before use.
What devices work best with 50/50 shortfill?
50/50 shortfills have an even VG/PG ratio, making them ideal for lower-powered devices. Mouth-to-lung kits, such as vape pens, pod systems, and starter kits, work best with these liquids. If your device uses higher-resistance coils (typically above 1.0 ohm), 50/50 vape juice delivers a good balance of flavour and vapour.
Do shortfill e-liquids need steeping?
Some shortfill vape juice flavours are ready to vape immediately after mixing. Like tobacco, dessert, and custard flavours usually improve with time. Steeping allows the flavour molecules to settle and blend with the nicotine shot. If your e-liquid tastes a little off or chemically after mixing, let it sit in a cool, dark place for a few hours. Fruity 50/50 e liquid blends often don’t need steeping and can be vaped straight away.
What is the difference between shortfills and nic salts?
Shortfills are large, nicotine-free bottles of vape juice that let you add your own nicotine shots. Nic salts, on the other hand, are ready-made liquids with salt-based nicotine, usually sold in 10ml bottles. While shortfill e liquid gives you more volume and flexibility with strength, nic salts are often used for quicker nicotine satisfaction and a satisfying throat hit. If you prefer MTL vaping with lower wattage, nic salts work better. For volume and cloud-chasing, go for shortfills.
