GENERAL

What do the e-Liquids contain?

Each e-Liquid contains Propylene glycol (PG), glycerol (VG) and nicotine and carefully selected food grade flavourings formulated specifically to offer a satisfying vapour experience. All e-Liquids contain a proportion of water.

What happens if I use e-Liquids from other brands or mix Vuse e-Liquids with other brands?

Each Vuse e-Liquid is designed and tested specifically for a vaping experience you can trust. We do not know what other e-Liquids contain and therefore we decline any responsibility in case of mixing with other e-Liquids. However, our Vuse e-Liquids can be mixed together.

What is the difference between Vuse ePen and Vype ePen 3 device?

  • Faster charging; the Vuse ePen device will be fully charged in less than 60 minutes, when an appropriate charging input is used (5V at 1.5A)
  • Post puff LED indication; the Vuse ePen device shows the state of charge of the device after each puff (post puff afterglow)
  • Clearer pod; the Vuse ePen pod has increased visibility of the liquid level in the pod, allowing you to judge more easily when your pod is nearly empty

How do I clean the Vuse ePen device?

You can clean the Vuse ePen device with a dry cloth. You should always ensure you avoid getting any liquid near the battery. Additionally, you can use wet wipes such as anti-bacterial or baby wipes to clean off any dirt from the tip of the pod.

Where is the USB charging cable in my starter kit?

It is on the underside of the tray. Pull the tray out and you should see it.

How long does my battery last?

A fully charged Vuse ePen battery should last all day. But it will depend on how you use the product.

Can I change the wattage settings?

No, your Vuse ePen device is fixed at its optimal setting.

Why has my Vuse ePen turned itself off?

It could be one of several safety, or battery-related, reasons:

  • Vuse ePen device automatically shuts down after 10 minutes of inactivity
  • If you press the button for more than eight seconds, the Vuse ePen device will shut down. This is a safety feature in case it gets accidentally activated
  • Your Vuse ePen device needs charging

EPEN CAPS

Can I exchange a cap before it is empty?

Yes, the design of the Vuse ePen is designed to help you change flavors quickly and easily at any time. 

What are the ingredients of Vuse ePen Caps?

Propylene glycol (PG), glycerol (VG), water, nicotine and carefully selected flavourings formulated specifically for the Vuse ePen.

Can I refill the Vuse ePen Caps?

No, the Vuse ePen Caps are not designed for refilling.

How long does a Vuse ePen Cap last (in puffs)?

Each Vuse ePen Caps delivers over 200 puffs in laboratory testing. But the number of puffs depends upon your vaping behaviour.

Where is the e-Liquid inside the Vuse ePen Caps made?

Vuse ePen e-Liquid is made in the UK.

How many Vuse ePen Caps do you get in each refill pack?

Each Vuse ePen refill pack contains 2 Vuse ePen Caps.

Will the flavour deteriorate if I don’t use a Cap for some time, say 6-8 weeks?

If it’s still in its packaging, it should be fine. If it’s been removed from its packaging, after this time there may be a slight loss in the intensity of flavour.

Can I switch flavours without finishing the Cap?

Yes, the no-spill design of the Vuse ePen Caps means you can remove it very easily and quickly to change flavours.

Are Vuse ePen Caps "VG" vegetal glycerin or "PG" propylene glycol based?

The Vuse ePen Caps contains both. We have learned that there has to be a balance of VG to PG to produce a balanced vapour.

Do I have to keep the silicon cap on the Vuse ePen Caps once it has been removed from the blister packaging?

No, but if you think you will leave the Caps outside of its protective packaging for more than one day, we suggest that you refit the silicon Caps to help seal the Caps and keep the tip clean when not in use.

Does it affect the aroma if I do not use a cap for 6 to 8 weeks?

As long as the cap is still in its packaging - no problem. If you have already removed the cap from the pack, the taste intensity can be slightly affected. 

What does it mean when the white light comes on 10 times?

With 10 minutes of inactivity, the white light will flash 10 times and the Vuse ePen will turn off to conserve battery power. To turn it back on, press the button 3 times quickly.

Recycling of Vuse / Vype batteries in Switzerland

The disposal of used batteries in Switzerland is regulated and the Federal Office for the Environment (FOEN) has commissioned INOBAT to supervise the recycling process. Consumers are obliged to bring used batteries to a collection point. All sales outlets are obliged to take them back free of charge. British American Tobacco Switzerland (BAT) pays the “taxe d’élimination anticipée (TEA)” (advance disposal tax) on the batteries used in Vuse / Vype products sold in Switzerland and thus participates in the collection, transport and recycling of household batteries as well as in information campaigns for the trade and the population. BAT has set up its own collection and recycling system for the batteries used in Vuse / Vype products sold in Switzerland.

We strive to minimize our impact on the environment and comply with applicable Swiss laws and regulations (notably, the Ordinance on return, take-back and disposal of electrical and electronic equipment - “OREA”) on all our Vuse / Vype devices. As a manufacturer of electronic cigarettes, we are responsible for complying with the OREA and want to help relieve the landfills of waste equipment.

To ensure environmentally friendly disposal, BAT offers our consumers the possibility to return used Vuse / Vype devices (ePen and ePod) to us. These are then safely disposed of by us, ensuring that they do not end up in the landfill.

This is how you can do it:

1) Take your undamaged Vuse / Vype device (“Device”) you do not use anymore (please send only 1 or maximum 2 devices at the same time, per box).

2) Put the Device(s) in a cardboard box and pack the Device(s) safely (conditions apply; see below for more info)

3) Agree to the requirements for returning your Vuse / Vype Device(s) by ticking the below boxes.

4) Download and print the return label below - we will take care of shipping fees for you; and

5) Stick the return label on the box and leave it at a local post office.

REQUIREMENTS (*) FOR RETURNING YOUR VUSE / VYPE DEVICE(S):

- I understand and I agree:

not to ship more than 2 (two) Vuse / Vype devices per box with this return label;

not to ship a Vuse / Vype device if its battery or the device itself is visibly damaged or modified; and

to ship the Vuse / Vype device(s) in a cardboard box in a secure and safe way: it is recommended to use the original Vuse / Vype device box or, for instance, the PostPac N° 0. Please make sure that the content inside the box is wedged and padded.

- I acknowledge that I have read and will comply with the conditions of the offered recycling service for Vuse / Vype devices.

(*) Requirements applicable to all returns of Vuse / Vype devices in Switzerland initiated on this webpage. Separate terms and conditions apply to the purchase of the Vuse device.
