More About V2 Cigs
Widely considered the best (mini) e-cigarettes on the market, V2 Cigs has an outstanding reputation among the vaping community – and we happen to be big fans as well. Known for their excellent performance, superior quality and trouble-free operation, there’s very little
to complain about when it comes to V2.
V2 Cigs offers a wide range of color and style choices, including stainless steel, metallic blue or plain black and white batteries. They’ve won the support of thousands of customers with their stylish and unconventional look, but if you’re searching for the most realistic electronic cigarette design, you may need to search elsewhere.
Why V2 Is One of The Best
V2 excels in virtually every area that matters to former smokers. When it comes to performance, it’s safe to say that V2 provides the best vapor production and the strongest ‘throat hit’ out of every mini electronic cigarette in it’s class. A drag from a V2 feels just like the real thing, producing a thick cloud of vapor that accurately replicates the look and feel of real tobacco smoke. The smooth, yet powerful hits will satisfy both casual users and moderate to heavy smokers.
In addition to the excellent vaping qualities, V2 Cigs offers a variety of high-quality battery options as well. Choose from automatic or manual batteries, and pick from three different sizes – Shorty (100mm), Standard (110mm) and Long (140mm).
The standard battery provides about what you’d expect from a typical e-cigarette battery at close to 200 puffs, while the long battery will provide up to 300 puffs. But what really makes V2 batteries great is the fact that they’re regulated at 4.2 volts, rather than the normal 3.7 volts. Used with the same standard cartomizers, they produce hotter vapor, and more of it, further contributing to the excellent performance.
We’re very excited about the new V2 Cigs EX series! EX batteries come in several sleek and attractive designs, offer extended life and include other neat features such as power indicator lights and matching cartridge sleeves. In addition, V2 also released their new EX cartridges, providing twice as many puffs, more consistent vapor and visible e-liquid level. EX components can be purchase separately, or any standard kit can now be upgraded!
Numerous Nicotine Levels, Flavors and e-Liquids
V2 Cigs offers a full range of nicotine levels (from 0% to 2.4%) as well as ten different flavor options. Choose from three tobacco blends (Red, Sahara and Congress), three minty varieties (Menthol, Peppermint and Mint Tea), several sweeter selections (Vanilla, Chocolate, Cherry) and Coffee.
As with most flavor offerings there are some winners and some losers in the bunch, but we’ll leave the ratings to others since flavor preferences are a matter of personal taste.
Overall, V2’s selection is great and the flavor execution is accurate and robust. In addition to the typical 5 and 20-packs, V2 sells their cartridges in large 80-packs or customizable 100-packs to help you save. They also sell e-liquids so you can fill blank cartridges, another great money-saving option.
So Where Are They Lacking???
V2 Cigs is at the top of food chain when it comes to smaller, mini-style electronic cigarettes. There’s very little to complain about here, especially considering all the options you have to customize your experience and provide the excellent results you expect from an e-cig. If the vapor production isn’t quite strong enough, you can upgrade to a manual battery.
Not getting enough battery life? Upgrade to the longer 140mm version. There are ten different flavor options, so it’s likely you’ll find a choice that fits. If for whatever reason one of ten V2 flavor options doesn’t suffice, you can always purchase blank cartridges and buy your liquids elsewhere. How can you go wrong???
On top of that, V2 Cigs has excellent customer service, available by phone, live chat or email. V2 Cigs will provide a lifetime warranty (limited to a maximum of five replacements) and as long as you purchase cartridges or e-liquids every 90-days, you’re covered.
One area that may be a deal-breaker for some is the lack of a realistic-looking cigarette design. A white battery paired up with one of the various colored cartridges will provide a more natural appearance, but they still don’t have the fully authentic look of the faux designs offered by other companies. You also won’t find any mid-size or variable voltage models at V2, so if you decide to move beyond the mini cigarette-style products, you’ll have to search elsewhere.
With all other factors considered, if you’re looking for a small, lightweight setup and prefer an edgier, more custom look, V2 is probably your best choice. You’re unlikely to find the same performance and flexibility anywhere else, and if you do, it’s going to cost significantly more.

V2 is a great company and overall I’ve been satisfied with their products. For the first year they worked great and I have no major complaints, but eventually I had to move to a more powerful device because the standard cigarette-style products just weren’t cutting it anymore. If you’re looking for something to replace smoking and you’re a moderate to heavy smoker, these will work great to start out. But if you’re anything like me and you become serious about vaping, you’ll eventually want more powerful batteries, bigger tanks, etc…

I started out with V2 because I didn’t know any better. They’re not horrible, but there are so many better options out there that I wouldn’t recommend them unless you you want to start with something cheap. Yes, they’re small like a regular cigarette, but they won’t last very long and within a few months you’ll be craving something bigger and more powerful.

I tried a few cheap disposables before I finally decided to commit to v2. I read a lot of positive reviews and the price was right, so I made the jump.
Other than giving in one night after one too many drinks, I’m proud to say I haven’t smoked in about 3 months. My v2s have been great and I’ve had a relatively easy time staying away from cigarettes. I’ll be the first to admit that it’s not exactly the same as smoking, and it takes a few weeks to get used to the slightly different flavor, but the V2 gives me the sensation of smoking, along with the nicotine I need.
It’s definitely like night-and-day when comparing these to the cheap liquor store brands I’ve tried. I had a tough time getting a good, satisfying drag with the store brands, but not so with v2.
I will say that there was a little too much air flow through the mouth piece at first, which limited the vapor draw. But I read some suggestions on another website about covering the air ports with clear tape and it’s been excellent ever since. Would definitely recommend to anyone trying to quit smoking!

V2 provides a decent product if you’re in the market for a mini. I started out with a V2 and still use it from time to time, but I eventually moved on to a bigger, more powerful ego model. Overall the standard V2 performs well and I would recommend it to any first-time users. It provides a good amount of vapor and a decent throat hit and is an excellent introduction into vaping. Eventually you can move on to something bigger and better if you choose, but V2 is a good place to start if you’re not sure what you want or need.

Being new to the world of e-cigs, my wife and I did lots of research before our first purchase. We read reviews, visited blogs and combed over the pages of all major brands to make our choice, and in the end it was the positive feedback that lured us to V2.
Even before our purchase their customer service was really helpful and anwered all our questions in detail. We ended up purchasing the couples kit and have had them for almost 2 months. Although it took a few weeks to fully transition, I’m proud to say we’ve completely cutout the cigarettes and I’m confident that we’re done after 15+ years! The V2s have been really helpful and we’re both extremely satisfied. Will we move beyond V2 and try another product? Probably not… our intention is to quit altogether. I think we’re off to a good start… thanks V2!

Overall I’ve been pleased with my v2. This is my second electronic cigarette and it’s definitely better than the first one I tried. Kind of new to this, but I love my v2 so far…

Highly overrated. Average vapor production at best and very short battery life. If you don’t mind switching batteries or recharging every few hours, they might be OK, but I’d say for something bigger like an Ego and save yourself the hassle.

I Recently moved to e-cigs after smoking almost 20 years; I bought the EX Ultimate package and have been very happy with the quality and experience when I email with questions or need help. Overall, I’m very impressed, and when I run out in between buying new product at their website, I can purchase at many many stores (gas stations, mini-marts, etc. They even have a store locator, Love it! 5 stars
