DTL (Direct to lung or sometimes DL Direct Lung) E-liquids are e-liquids designed to be used Sub-Ohm (Sub-Ohm E-liquids) - They tend to be a higher VG (Vegetable Glycerine) to PG(Propylene Glycol) Ratio - 70% VG and above, create a denser cloud and are inhaled directly to the lungs. Designed to be used with DTL Atomisers or Sub-ohm Kits such as the iTank 2 Sub-ohm Vape Tank by Vaporesso, The Falcon Legend Sub-ohm Tank by HorizonTech or the Vaporesso Luxe X Max Sub-ohm Pod Kit.
Some DTL Vape juices come in shortfill form at 60/40 VG/PG - these can be use either DTL (by adding a 100VG Nic Shot) or MTL (by adding a 50/50 VG/PG Nicshot), such as our own Base Zero Range of Shortfills. These are included in both out MTL and DTL Sections.
Adding Nic Shots to Manabush Shortfill E-liquids
Manabush Shortfill use "Torpedo" bottles. These bottles are 120ml and have space in the bottle for two nic shots - below is how to use them to add your nic shots. NOTE : these nibs unscrew - not flip up. On occasion - due to availabilty we may have to use other bottles - they will either Flip up or unscrew, but the process will be similar.
Step 1: Locate the screw top of the Bottle
Step 2: Unscrew the top!
Step 3: Fill up with your nic shots!
The Nib of the Bottle has a screw-in top to make it easier for you to add your nic shots. Unscrew the cap of the shortfill bottle and look for the Knurled edge on the base of the nib.
Once you have located the knurled section simply unscrew the top from the bottle - revealing an aperture for you to squeeze your nic shot e-liquid into.
Remove the screw top cap of your nic shot bottle and locate the nib of the nic shot into the aperture on the shortfill bottle, squeeze all that e-liquid into the big bottle, replace nib and cap and shake thoroughly.
What Are Shortfills
Shortfills are larger bottles of Zero mg (non nicotine containing) e-liquid supplied with enough space in the bottle to add a 10ml “Nic-shot” or your own DIY additions.
Typically they are 50ml of liquid in a 60ml bottle - but may also come in other forms - such as our own 20ml of liquid in a 30ml bottle (ideal for 6mg vapers) or 10ml of liquid in a 30ml bottle (ideal for 12mg vapers).
The short filling of the bottle is what gives the “Shortfill” its name.
Shortfills came about as a result of the TPD (Tobacco Products Directive) - which restricted Nicotine containing liquid bottles maximum size too 10ml.
This had the potential for large price rises on Nicotine containing liquids - as the customer would have to buy multiple 10ml bottles instead of their usual larger bottle.
The Shortfill bottles. themselves do not contain any nicotine and can therefore legally be sold in any size bottle - ready for the user to add their own nicotine via the use of various Nicshots.
