50/50 shortfills are thin, nicotine-free juice built for low-power MTL kits — add your own nic shots to taste. Here's how to pick.

50/50 Short fill E-Liquid, like regular shortfills, are nicotine-free and come in underfilled ("short filled") bottles, with space for for you to add your own nicotine via nic shots.

The '50/50' denotes the ratio of VG (vegetable glycerin) to PG (propylene glycol); it makes them compatible with starter vape kits and other low powered beginner MTL pod vapes.

A popular alternative to regular shortfills, 50/50 short fills are the only vape juices that can be used in MTL kits, making them far more accessible to a large portion of the vaping market.

Shortfills came about when the TPD (Tobacco Product Directive) was introduced, which limited nicotine-containing E-Liquids to 10ml bottles. Shortfills allow you to purchase more E-Liquid at once, since they have no nicotine.

Shortfills therefore provide a much more cost-effective and customizable vaping solution than other e-juice bottles or disposable vapes do.

Vapers can add nicotine shots of varying strengths to achieve their desired nicotine concentration, making 50/50 shortfills a versatile choice for both new and experienced users.

To add nicotine to your 50/50 shortfill, you'll first need to purchase nic shots. For a 100ml shortfill, you'll need two.

These large bottles of vape juice have a removable nib which can be popped off either by hand or with a bottle opener tool. You'll also need to remove the nib on your nic shot(s). Once you've removed the nibs, pour the nic shot(s) into your shortfill bottle and replace the nib. This will fill the bottle all the way to the top. You should hear or feel a "click" once the nib is back in place.

From here, place your finger over the nozzle on top and shake the bottle vigorously for at least 30 seconds to make sure the nicotine is fully mixed.

50/50 Shortfills are made with a formulation of 50% VG to 50% PG, which means that they're thinner than regular shortfills are for use in beginner vape devices and other starter kits. They are perfect for starter vapers looking to save money, and reduce their waste by using a refillable pod kit.

You can technically use a 50/50 shortfill with an advanced DTL kit, but we don't recommend this. You could end up consuming too much nicotine or your vape may begin to leak. Plus, its just not as nice.

Of course, this is a matter of preference, but Drifter Bar Juice is our top selling 50/50 shortfill E-Liquid. They have mastered many disposable flavours that starter vapers love, such as Watermelon Ice, Kiwi Passion Guava, and Blue Razz Lemonade.

The Seriously Pod Fill range is another 50/50 shortfill classic, with unique flavours catering to fruit lovers everywhere. If dessert flavours are more your thing, look no further than the JAKD range. The Jack Rabbit Custard Doughnut flavour is not to be missed!

And for vapers on a budget, we have a great selection of premium 100ml shortfills in our Mix & Match 2 for £20 offer!
