Questions we are asked about refilling and maintenance

Does Element pod system need any accessory to be usable on day one?

In most cases no, it is usable straight away once charged or filled. The two things worth adding at the point of sale are a spare coil or pod and, for removable-cell devices, a proper storage case.

What is the realistic wholesale margin on Element pod system?

Most retailers work to a target of 55 to 65 percent at the counter, with the figure moving up when accessories are bundled. Margin per shelf metre is the better measure, because a fast-moving line earns more than a high-margin one that sits still.

Is Element pod system suitable for someone switching from cigarettes?

It can be, and it is one of the more common routes. The deciding factors are the draw style and the strength: a tighter draw with a mid strength is what most switchers settle on, and staff who ask what the customer currently smokes tend to get the match right first time.

What causes a burnt taste with Element pod system?

Nine times out of ten it is priming. A coil that has not been saturated before first use, or a tank run dry, will scorch the wicking and that taste does not go away. Fitting a new coil and waiting a few minutes before the first draw prevents it entirely.
