The Vapelier recalls that the products of the vape are intended for an audience of adult smokers in the context of smoking cessation assistance. Any sale to a minor public, any purchase by a minor or by an adult on behalf of a minor are prohibited by law. We advise parents to discuss with their children the addiction to nicotine that vaping devices can cause and to warn them of the dangers involved. Similarly, the public authorities have sole responsibility for enforcing the law in this area. In a nutshell: if you don't smoke, don't vape!
From the outset, the event raises questions. When DotMod, giant of the vape, recognized worldwide for the quality of its achievements, invests the field of puffs, we suspect that it is not there to count the points but more prosaically to lay a solid stone for this new building.
Puffs are on the rise, often for better, sometimes for worse. Highly recommended objects to help a smoker switch to vaping without asking technical questions which, let's face it, only concern geeks, they are also the source of two controversies which are as many dangers for the practice of clouds .
Reputed to go against the necessary ecological action of our time, one could object that the green human who invented planned obsolescence, the electric car and the massive use of plastics, did much worse in the opposite excess . But would we be heard?
Similarly, the puff invades the courses of high schools and even colleges, or teenagers, as stupid as we could be in our time, test the limits of a system always less inclined to understand or hear them. One could object that it is better to see them vape fruit in zero nicotine than to see them smoke a blonde stolen from the parents' package. But would we even be listened to?
Doing is always better than talking and DotMod is coming, with a solution. Will it be enforced? Will it serve as an example to follow? No one knows, but the idea is there. An egg of Christopher Columbus, simple but which resonates as obvious.
FINALLY A LITTLE ECOLOGY!
The puff Dot E since it is its name has three major characteristics that make it fall into the camp of those who have chosen to target an adult audience of smokers and therefore to remain within the strict framework of smoking cessation.
First, it is not colored, borrows nothing from manga or other video games, does not flash. She's sober, adult, not fun. A simple object with a simple purpose.
Second, it is almost entirely recyclable. The body is made of cardboard, the tips, drip-tip and bottom cap are made of food-grade silicone, all of this can be recycled. The battery is easily removable because it is attached to the resistance by clips and can therefore be stored in the battery containers that are available in all supermarkets and elsewhere. We are far from the “stuff” that we use and throw away anywhere. Of course, this requires effort, at least 20 seconds, an eternity… But that's the time it takes to crush a cigarette in an ashtray.
Finally, it delivers 20 mg/ml in nicotine salts. An interesting rate to help a smoker quit and completely useless to show off with your 15-year-old friends after school.
The material itself is unstoppable. Mesh resistance. Automatic suction working perfectly. 2ml of liquid for TPD compliance. About 400/500 puffs guaranteed with sufficient energy autonomy (400 mAh) to provide them. What to see coming.
In MTL draw as it should be, the Dot E is very comfortable and responsive. The flavors will increase with the length of the puff, a very typical operation of the analog cigarette. Steam is important in the category and will meet everyone's expectations. A led lights up at the bottom of the device when it is requested but it is not the play of lights of the whole Eiffel, just a discreet point of light.
The object is small, almost harmless and holds well in hand. We feel that it is a tool and not a toy, not a hand spinner. But, at 8.90 € price generally noted, we know that we are not there (only) to laugh. Available in all good vape shops for individuals and at LCA for the pros!
When it comes to recycling, as a picture speaks louder than words:
10 FLAVORS FOR ALL TASTES!
Banana
The flavor is realistic, a banana not 100% ripe but not 100% green either. It's the happy medium for a good, fairly natural balance. The freshness is present but rather light and does not affect the quality of the main aroma.
The draw is really interesting. The MTL aspect is there but the flavor increases with the length of the puff.
We liked it! 4.4/5 
lemon-cola
The cola is believable, fragrant with a hint of bitterness as it should be. It doubles up with a welcome dash of lemon that adds astringency and a cloud of freshness that coats the puff without altering the flavors. A good choice. Not too sweet, just enough for realism.
The tasting is pleasant, the draw perfect. It swings for amateurs.
We liked it! 4.6/5 
Lush
The perfect watermelon instant for hot weather. An authentic taste, sweet without excess and natural. It's hard to ask for better. The fresh invites itself to the tasting but all in nuance, like a ripe fruit taken out an hour ago from the refrigerator.
We like the few notes of melon that we guess behind the star fruit. It's surprising but attractive.
We liked it a lot! 4.7/5 
Mango
A not quite ripe but recognizable mango which nevertheless suffers from a somewhat weak aromatic power. It lacks a bit of punch to impose itself in the mouth despite the very present freshness.
On the other hand, its wisdom in aroma makes it vapable over long sessions for lovers of the exotic drupe.
It's correct ! 3.7/5 
Mint
A peppermint, very powerful both in taste and in sensation. It's realistic, very fresh and perfectly suited to lovers of the plant. Undoubtedly one of the best surprises of the range. Simple, square and effective!
The manufacturer has even spared grassy notes that dot the tasting for even more realism. Nickel!
Top! 4.9/5 
Orange soda
As its name suggests, we have an orange-typed drink that begins with a Fan and ends with a Ta. It's realistic, light, sparkling, finely sweetened, pleasant to vape over long periods.
Accompanied by a cloud of freshness, a citrus moment of pleasure on the beach this summer!
We liked it! 4.6 / 5
Peach Mango
Rather successful, the peach wins against the mango but the result is convincing. Sweet and drawing towards an exotic confectionery, an ideal combo for vaping chill.
The freshness is well marked, without being cataclysmic either. For lovers of fruit and ice cubes.
We liked it! 4.5/5 
Pineapple Ice
Not the best of the lot. A pineapple rather fruity in syrup than realistic. If it is not frankly unpleasant, it is largely inferior to other fruits in the range. The freshness is also more marked than for the other references.
The pineapple is sweet but sorely lacking in liveliness and naturalness to be believable and addictive.
Bof! 3.5/5 
Velvet Tobacco
A blond tobacco, blend of Virginia and Burley. Rather powerful in aroma, it performs its task without having to blush for a single second. The ideal tool to easily get rid of years of bad habits!
No freshness here, fortunately, but a realism worth many useless palavers. To be reimbursed by the social security!
Top ! 4.8 / 5 
White Russian
It was daring to mix coffee, vanilla and a creamy texture in a puff. The result is strange, far from exceptional, and it is difficult to recognize the promised aromas.
The general flavor, indefinable, evokes gluttony but without totally adhering to it. Perhaps a simpler aroma would have been more appropriate for the only gourmand in the gang?
Boo boo boo! 3.3/5 
TO TRY IT IS TO ADOPT IT ?
DotMod didn't do things by halves and lays the foundations for a real reflection on the why of puffs, not to mention a more than convincing answer to the ecological problems posed by disposables.
The flavors convinced us for the majority of them and we salute a tobacco and a mint very well thought out and very useful for weaning ourselves off. The fruits are generally good, with an exception for pineapple and, to a lesser extent, mango. The drinks are both effective and serve their purpose well.
We liked:
- The recyclable concept that is revolutionizing the category.
- Tobacco and mint, very refined.
- The risk-taking of a brand that gets wet.
- Overall very satisfying flavors.
- The rate of nicotine suitable for beginners.
- The perfect draw.
We regret:
- The failed attempt of a gourmet worthy of the name.
- The price slightly above average.
- Some fruitiness that lacks presence.
