MTL, RDL, and DTL Disposable Vape: What’s the Difference?

DTL, MTL, and RDL are three different vaping styles. The main difference between them is the way the vapor is inhaled.

DTL (direct to lung) vaping is similar to taking a deep breath of air. You draw the vapor directly into your lungs without first holding it in your mouth. DTL devices typically have a more open airflow and higher power output, which produces a larger volume of vapor. DTL e-liquids typically have a lower nicotine strength, as more vapor is inhaled per puff.

MTL (mouth to lung) vaping is similar to smoking a cigarette. You take a small puff of vapor into your mouth and then hold it for a second before inhaling it into your lungs. MTL devices typically have a tighter airflow and lower power output, which produces a less dense vapor. MTL e-liquids typically have a higher nicotine strength, as less vapor is inhaled per puff.

RDL (restricted direct to lung) vaping is somewhere between MTL and DTL vaping. You take a longer, more open draw of vapor directly into your lungs. RDL devices typically have a more open airflow and higher power output than MTL devices, but not as high as DTL devices. RDL e-liquids typically have a lower nicotine strength than MTL e-liquids, as more vapor is inhaled per puff.

Is mouth to lung vaping bad?

Mouth to lung (MTL) vaping is not inherently bad, but it is important to be aware of the potential risks.

MTL vaping involves drawing vapor into your mouth and then inhaling it into your lungs. This is similar to the way you smoke a cigarette. MTL devices typically have a tighter airflow and lower power output, which produces a less dense vapor. MTL e-liquids typically have a higher nicotine strength, as less vapor is inhaled per puff.

The main risks associated with MTL vaping are:

• Nicotine addiction: Nicotine is a highly addictive substance. Even if you are only vaping to quit smoking, you can still become addicted to nicotine.
• Lung damage: Vaping can irritate your lungs and damage your airways. This is especially true if you vape frequently or at high temperatures.
• Other health risks: Vaping has been linked to other health risks, such as heart disease, stroke, and cancer. However, more research is needed to fully understand the long-term health effects of vaping.

It is important to note that the risks of vaping are lower than the risks of smoking cigarettes. However, vaping is not risk-free. If you are concerned about the risks of vaping, you should talk to your doctor.

Here are some tips for reducing the risks of MTL vaping:

• Use a device with a lower power output.
• Avoid vaping at high temperatures.
• Choose e-liquids with a lower nicotine strength.
• Take breaks from vaping regularly.
• See your doctor for regular checkups.

If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, you should not vape.

What are the Advantages to DLT Vaping

DL Tvaping has plenty of advantages. Here are some reasons to try it: –

• Huge clouds

Because DLT vaping favors juices higher in VG, paired with bigger coils, more airflow, and higher power, you will be able to blow huge clouds. There are even competitions where people do tricks with the vapor! Watch this...

• Better flavor

Do you like to take a sip of something or a gulp? Because there is more Ejuice being vaporized on the coil, combined with higher airflow, you’ll find that juices taste stronger and more intense.

• DL is kinder to your throat

A major complaint of new vapers is that they suffer from a sore throat. Because DL vaping tends to use juices with a higher VG concentration, this is less of an issue. It is a smoother vaping experience.

• Less nicotine

There is more vapor produced and inhaled with direct lung vaping. Because of this (if you’ve read our guidance above), you will find that juices designed to be DL friendly have a much lower nicotine level. So, if you are looking to reduce your nicotine intake, it’s a great solution.

• It can be cheaper

The initial outlay for a great DL setup might be slightly more expensive than buying a simple disposable e-shisha vape. (That said, you can pick up a starter kit pretty cheap). However, if you decide to get into the world of building your own coils, you can make hundreds for a few dollars.
