MTL Shortfills

MTL Shortfills are nicotine-free e-liquids designed for mouth-to-lung vaping and pod systems. With higher PG, low sweetness, and a clean flavor profile, these shortfills provide a smooth and efficient vape with room for a nicotine shot.

What are MTL Shortfills?

MTL Shortfills are shortfills specifically made for mouth-to-lung (MTL) vaping – the technique where vapor is first held in the mouth before inhaling. This is the preferred style for most beginners and former smokers, typically used with pod systems or low-power MTL devices.

How do shortfills work?

A shortfill is a larger bottle, often 60 or 120 ml, filled partway with ready-made, nicotine-free e-liquid. The empty space allows you to add nicotine shots, letting you reach the desired strength – usually 3 mg or 6 mg.

What makes MTL Shortfills different?

MTL Shortfills are optimized for devices that use lower wattage and tighter airflow. Key differences include:

  • Higher PG ratio (e.g., 50/50 or 60/40) for better throat hit and thinner consistency
  • Lower sweetness to prevent coil gunking
  • Flavors formulated for clarity and balance over cloud production
  • Thinner liquid that flows easily in small pod coils

Benefits of MTL Shortfills

  • Discreet vaping: Less vapor, more subtle use
  • Effective nicotine delivery: Higher PG carries nicotine better
  • Cost-effective: More juice per bottle than pre-mixed 10 ml
  • Flavor-focused: Great performance at lower wattage

How to add nicotine

To reach 3 mg strength, add one 10 ml nicotine shot (18 mg/ml) to a 60 ml bottle containing 50 ml of liquid. For a 120 ml bottle with 100 ml of e-liquid, add two shots. Shake thoroughly and let the juice steep for 1–3 days for optimal flavor.

Who are MTL Shortfills for?

These shortfills are ideal for:

  • Users of pod systems and low-wattage MTL devices
  • Those looking for less sweetness and better balance
  • Vapers who prefer subtle, compact clouds
  • Anyone wanting control over nicotine level
