2. Optimal Puffing Technique
2.1 First-Time Setup
- Battery Activation
- Charge for two hours using a 5V/1A adapter (avoid fast charging).
- Prime the pod: Leave for two minutes to allow the e-liquid to saturate the ceramic coil.
- Pod Integrity Check
- Visually Inspect: The e-liquid level should cover the coil by 2 mm.
- Shake Test: There should be no sloshing sound, which indicates proper seal pressure of at least 5 kPa.

| Inhalation Style | Puff Duration | E-Liquid Vaporised | Use Case | Tips |
| Shallow (2s) | 2 seconds | 0.15 ml/puff | Morning relaxation | Wait 10 seconds between puffs |
| Deep (4s) | 4 seconds | 0.3 ml/puff | Social sharing | 3 deep puffs max before a 30-second cool-down |

4. FAQ: Answering Top User Queries
Q1: Are disposable rechargeable shisha pens tobacco-free?
Yes, as they use e-liquids or herbal extracts rather than combustible tobacco. The tobacco flavour comes from synthetic or natural extracts, not real tobacco leaves.
Q2: How to prevent pod leakage?
- Avoid squeezing the pod.
- Store upright at ≤25°C.
- Replace immediately if the seal is compromised (leakage rate of less than 0.5% in certified products).
Q3: Which nicotine strength is right for me?
| User Type | Recommended Strength | Puffs per Pod (3ml) | Health Tip |
| Non-smokers | 0 mg | 300+ puffs | Limit to 100 puffs per day |
| Cigarette switchers | 6 mg/ml | ~200 puffs | Gradually reduce over 3 months |
| Experienced users | 12 mg/ml | ~150 puffs | Stay hydrated and take breaks |
