How is CBD Vape Used
The simple answer is… you start off with a tasty CBD Vape juice, you pour it into your favorite vaping device, tank, or pod-style system, turn the power on, push the power button, and take a draw. Sit back and relax. If you’re new to vaping CBD in general, you probably want to get started with the device you’re going to use.
Let’s dive in and talk about the available vape devices you can use to start vaping CBD.
What Device Do I Need to Start Vaping CBD?
Most devices out there today are suitable to vape CBD so long as you can control the wattage, or are preset at a wattage that is favorable to vaping CBD (we’ll get to this shortly).
Here are the key components you want to take into consideration, the tank, pod, (which holds the oil), and the heating element (the coil that heats up to produce vapor), choosing a tank, pod-style, or disposable vape-style system.
Let’s break down the pros and cons of each one, as choosing the right device is for your best CBD vaping experience.
POD Style Vape Devices:
Pros:
POD systems are known for their user-friendly design, making them exceptionally easy to use for beginners. They offer a convenient, and portable solution for vaping CBD, often with a simple plug-and-play setup that requires minimal maintenance.
The compactness of POD devices ensures discretion and ease of use, with pre-filled or refillable options that cater to on-the-go lifestyles, allowing you to enjoy CBD virtually anywhere.
Another powerful pro to Pod devices is their easy-to-use, no-fuss pods, which can simply be swapped out once the coil burns out, eliminating the hassle of coil maintenance. This convenient design is perfect for those who prioritize efficiency and ease, allowing for a quick return to your vaping routine without having to mess with complicated coils from other vaping systems.
Cons:
They may offer less customization in terms of power settings and airflow adjustments, which can limit your ability to tailor your vaping experience to personal preferences. Recommended for: Beginner / Intermediate / Advanced Users Type: Battery and Pod style Disposable Tank (Pod): Yes / No (All depends on the system) Replaceable Coil: Yes / No (All depends on the system) Refillable: Yes / No (All depends on the system) Battery Life: Medium / High
Tank Style Vape Devices:
Pros:
Tank systems are known for their robust design, offering a larger e-juice capacity and longer battery life, which translates to extended vaping sessions and less frequent need for refills and recharges.
These devices provide greater control over your CBD vaping experience, with adjustable settings like temperature and airflow, allowing for a more personalized CBD vaping experience and the ability to fine-tune vapor production and flavor intensity.
Cons:
Tank systems tend to be bulkier, which may reduce the convenience factor and make them less discreet compared to POD systems.
They often require a higher level of vaping knowledge to operate and maintain, which might pose a challenge for those new to vaping or those who prefer a more straightforward experience. Recommended for: Intermediate / Advanced Users Type: Battery and Tank style Disposable Tank: No Replaceable Coil: Yes Refillable: Yes Battery Life: High
Disposable CBD Vape Pen Devices:
Pros:
Disposable CBD vape pens offer maximum convenience and simplicity, perfect for those new to vaping or seeking a hassle-free experience. There’s no need for refilling, powering on, or figuring out how to use them, simply open the box and take your first pull, this makes them ideal for on-the-go use or as an introduction to CBD vaping.
Formulations for disposable CBD vape pens have more CBD per ML compared to 30ml CBD Vape Juices available in the market.
They are incredibly discreet and portable, allowing users to enjoy CBD without the bulk or maintenance of more complex systems.
Cons:
While convenient, Disposables have a limited lifespan, and they offer limited options in terms of CBD strengths. Which can restrict a user’s ability to personalize their vaping experience.
They are more expensive per ML compared to a CBD Vape Juice bottle.
Recommended for: Beginners Type: Battery and Tank style Enclosed System Disposable Tank: Yes Replaceable Coil: No Refillable: Yes Battery Life: Low
So the question is, which one is best for you?
POD-style devices and Disposable Vape Pens offer simplicity and portability, ideal if you are new to vaping CBD or seeking convenience, while tank-style devices are suited for those who desire a more customizable vaping experience and longer vaping sessions.
The choice between the two will depend on your personal vaping preferences, how frequently you intend to use the device, and the level of customization you desire from your CBD vaping experience.
Now that leads us to the next question…

What wattage to vape CBD e-juice?
Some vape devices have an option to select how much wattage you want going to the coil.
The higher the wattage >, the hotter the coil gets >, the more vapor it produces.
However, with higher wattage, you run the risk of damaging and burning the coil (you’ll know when you get a burnt taste).
So stay low, 12 watts is a good starting point. If you’re not getting the vapor production you’re looking for, then bump it up 1 watt at a time. If you’re getting into the 20’s tread lightly, you could end up burning your coil, and you’ll know by the nasty taste.
Another effect of a hotter coil is coughing after you vape. This has to do with the temperature of the coil and the wattage settings on your vape pen. If the wattage is set too high, the coil heats up excessively, causing the vapor to become too hot and harsh on your throat, leading to coughing. A hotter coil can also burn the vape juice too quickly, creating a more intense hit that your throat may not be prepared for. Lowering the wattage will result in cooler vapor, making the experience smoother and less likely to cause irritation. Adjusting your settings can help create a more comfortable vaping experience and reduce the chances of coughing.
For vaping CBD, don’t go anywhere past 50 watts, you risk completely vaporizing the CBD molecules, and it won’t be effective, meaning you won’t feel anything.
The Vape oil in my tank is starting to taste funky! What do I do?
It’s time for a new coil. They don’t last forever, and you may even see yourself replacing the coil 2-3 times per bottle of CBD Vape. So just go ahead and replace the coil and start fresh. Trust us when we say, “Your taste buds will thank you”.
How does a CBD Vape work?
Let’s break down the components of a CBD Pen so you can get a better understanding of how these devices work in general.
Tip – You put your lips to the mouthpiece and inhale.
Tank / Pod – The tank or pod holds the oil that is poured into it. – The tank or pod contains a coil (heating element), an absorbent material (cotton or silica) that sits inside the coil and gets saturated with the CBD vape juice
Wick – The absorbent material that keeps saturated with CBD vape juice. The coil heats the wick and produces vapor.
Coil – The heating element that’s powered by the battery and vaporizes the e-juice that’s on the wick.
CBD Vape Juice – The good stuff.
Vent – When you’re taking a puff, the vent helps draw in the vapor to your mouth. No vent equals no draw.
Battery – Usually comprises the bulk of the device. The battery holds the energy to light up the coil.
Dosing CBD Vape Juice
Below you’ll find a chart showing how much CBD you’ll find in each of our CBD vape juices with their varying strengths. It will help guide you in how much CBD is in each dropper for easier dosing.
Here is our “CBD Vape Dosing Chart”, it will help break down how much CBD our CBD vape juices contain.
Everyone is unique, and a lot of variables come into play when picking the right CBD dosage. A person’s weight, height, metabolism, or even how much fat is stored in your body are all variables. These variables are important for you to feel the benefits of CBD, and there may be many.
We recommend starting low and slow to find the perfect CBD dosage that gives you the effects you’re looking for. Let’s jump into the steps to get you started.
Fill your tank or pod-style CBD vape device with one of our delicious CBD vape juices.
Now try 3 consecutive puffs spaced out by 30 seconds, sit back, and relax for an hour. Do you feel better? If you answered yes, then congrats you found a dose that’s perfect for you.
Didn’t feel anything?
Bump your puffs to 4 and so on until you feel the effects of CBD. Yes, it’s that simple. Use throughout your day as needed. Once you’ve gone through your entire tank or POD of CBD Vape juice, it’s time for a refill.
Can you mix CBD with Nicotine Vape?
The answer is yes, you can. We’ve crafted a flavorless CBD Vape Additive that you can simply add to your favorite nicotine vape juice.
Using a tank or pod-style system, you can add a blend of your favorite e-juice with our Flavorless CBD Vape additive. The chart above will help you understand how much CBD you are adding to your blend.
CBD Vape is an e-juice specifically formulated to be used in an electronic device known as a vape pen or a vape mod, or a pod system like our CBD Vape Starter Kit.
The most common CBD Vape Juices (as well as our very own), consist of the following ingredients.
CBD(Cannabidiol) Isolate – CBD isolate is the purest form of cannabidiol, a crystalline powder that strips away all other cannabinoids and plant matter, leaving behind nothing but pure CBD. It’s an ideal choice for individuals looking for the singular benefits of CBD without the influence of other hemp plant compounds.
Food-grade natural and artificial flavorings – Natural flavorings, derived from plant and fruit extracts, offer a cleaner and often more authentic taste profile that gives you an experience similar to vaping cannabis. Meanwhile, In the crafting of e-juices, artificial flavorings expand the palette of flavors available, providing a diverse range of taste sensations that enhance your pleasure of vaping.
VG (Vegetable Glycerin) – VG’s clear, odorless liquid is derived from plant oils and is known for its viscous texture and slightly sweet taste. VG is a popular choice in e-juice formulations for its ability to produce a less harsh throat hit compared to Propylene Glycol (PG). Additionally, it’s a humectant, which means it helps to retain moisture, contributing to the overall mouthfeel of the vapor. Its plant-based origin and non-toxic nature make VG a suitable option as part of a carrier for CBD vape juices.
PG (Propylene Glycol) – PG is a key ingredient commonly found alongside VG in the formulation of e-juices. At Avida CBD, we appreciate PG for its excellent carrier properties, which enhance the delivery of flavors and CBD in vaping products. This colorless, odorless liquid with a faintly sweet taste is known for producing a stronger throat hit, akin to the sensation one gets from smoking tobacco, which many vapers find satisfying. Its lower viscosity compared to VG allows for easier wicking in vape devices, preventing build-up and maintaining the integrity of the coils. PG’s hygroscopic nature also helps in keeping the e-juice moist, ensuring a consistent vape experience. Its widespread use in various industries attests to its recognized safety profile, making it a trusted component in the vaping community.
Can I vape CBD Oil?
NO! Vaping CBD oil drops made with MCT oil is not recommended. While MCT oil, a common ingredient in CBD tinctures, is safe to ingest, it’s not meant for vaping. When heated, MCT oil can produce harmful compounds that may irritate the lungs and lead to respiratory issues. CBD vape juice and CBD e-liquids are specifically formulated for vaping and don’t contain oils like MCT, making them a safer option. Always ensure that you’re using products designed for vaping to avoid any potential health risks.
What to Expect From Your First CBD Vaping Experience
Your first CBD vaping experience is likely to be smooth and relaxing, with the effects kicking in quickly. When you vape CBD, the compound is absorbed rapidly through your lungs, so you may start to feel its effects within a few minutes.
Vaping CBD can help you feel calm and centered, without the psychoactive effects associated with THC. You’ll want to start with a low dose to see how it affects you, and then gradually increase if needed. The vapor itself is typically mild, but if the vape device is set too hot, it can be harsh on the throat. Expect a fast-acting, subtle experience that is customizable depending on the type of CBD and vape juice you choose.
Top Tips for Using a CBD Vape Pen
When vaping CBD e-juice, it’s important to choose the right vape device based on your needs. If you’re looking for simplicity, disposable CBD vape pens and CBD pods are excellent for on-the-go use. For a more customizable vaping experience, consider refillable CBD vape pens, which allow you to select the type of CBD oil or CBD e-liquid that best suits you. These pens offer flexibility in adjusting your vape tank settings for a tailored experience.
If your absolutely new to vaping CBD, starting with a lower dose of CBD and gradually increasing is recommended. If you prefer a convenient option, CBD gummies are another way to take CBD without the need for a vape kit. Whether you’re using CBD tinctures, CBD e-liquids, or CBD vape oil, it’s important to choose high-quality CBD vape products for the best effects.
The potential health benefits of vaping CBD can vary based on the amount of CBD you use and the type of vape pens you prefer, making it important to learn how to use your CBD vape pen effectively for the best results.
