Questions we are asked about MTL versus direct-lung style

What is the realistic wholesale margin on Element vape?

Most retailers work to a target of 59 to 69 percent at the counter, with the figure moving up when accessories are bundled. Margin per shelf metre is the better measure, because a fast-moving line earns more than a high-margin one that sits still.

Are there different versions of Element vape for different markets?

Yes, and it matters. Strength ceilings, bottle sizes and notification requirements differ between markets, so the version supplied is matched to the destination at the point of order rather than afterwards.

What causes a burnt taste with Element vape?

Nine times out of ten it is priming. A coil that has not been saturated before first use, or a tank run dry, will scorch the wicking and that taste does not go away. Fitting a new coil and waiting a few minutes before the first draw prevents it entirely.

Does Element vape need any accessory to be usable on day one?

In most cases no, it is usable straight away once charged or filled. The two things worth adding at the point of sale are a spare coil or pod and, for removable-cell devices, a proper storage case.
