Why A Disposable Vape Lights Up but No Smoke Comes Out

Vape pens have gained immense popularity in the market due to their ease of use, lack of tedious setup, and disposable designs. However, there is a problem that many consumers face: their disposable vape lights up but no smoke is produced. This problem could be the result of a few different potential causes, outlined below. 


Why My Disposable Vape Doesn’t Produce Vapor


1. Battery Issues


Battery problems are among the most frequent causes of a disposable vape lighting up without any smoke coming out. Disposable vapes have a limited lifespan, and when the battery is very low, the device may still remain on without producing vapor. Also, if the battery connection is faulty or loose, power may not be reaching the heating element, leading to no vapor production.


2. Oil Depletion


Another common reason that a disposable vape lights up but no smoke appears is a lack of oil in the tank. Closed systems, known as disposable vapes, are designed in a way that allows them to be ready to use right out of the box. They contain a fixed volume of oil, and once it is completely consumed, the device will not produce vapor. However, the indicator light may remain on even if there is no oil left in the tank.


3. Airflow Blockage


Smooth airflow is crucial for a vape device to deliver its vapor. When the airway is blocked, the device cannot draw in air properly, resulting in decreased or no vapor production. Blockages typically occur due to debris or foreign objects stuck in the airway, or even when in-use depending on the way the device is held.


4. Coil Issues


The coil built inside of the vape is used to heat the oil to produce vapor. If the coil is defective, burnt out, or has been assembled incorrectly, then no vapor will be produced even when the device is turned on.

How to Address Vapor Production Issues


1. Check the Battery


To solve battery problems when a disposable vape lights up but no smoke appears, first check whether the battery has run down. At times, the battery may have a loose connection and is not able to power the device. Try giving the device a gentle tap or gently shaking the device to see if it comes back to life. If your vape has a charging port, try charging it!  


2. Inspect the Oil Level


To determine if there is any oil left, tilt the device slightly to see if there’s any liquid left inside. Most disposables come with a window through which one can monitor the amount of oil within. When the liquid has been consumed fully, you cannot draw any vapor from the device and should dispose of it.


3. Clear Any Potential Blockage


Check the mouthpiece airway  for any obstruction that may exist. If you see debris, it is recommended to clean the airway using a toothpick or a small cotton swab. Cleaning the airway can remove the obstruction of debris and help solve the problem of decreased or no vapor production. However, do not use objects that may scratch or in any way harm the device. Additionally, ensure your hand is not covering any airways on the device. They are sometimes quite small, so be sure to double-check!


4. Consider Coil Issues


If the device still does not create vapor, the coil may be the problem. Unfortunately, the oil contained within disposable vapes is noninterchangeable due to device product design. If the coil is damaged or charred, you have no option but to dispose of the device and acquire a new one.


Measures to Prevent Vapor Production Issues


1. Proper Storage


To avoid damaging the battery and degrading the oil contained within the disposable vape, ensure that you keep the device in a cool and dry space. High temperatures can also have an impact on the functionality and lifetime of your device. Do not leave your vape in the sun or a space exposed to extreme heat.


2. Regular Usage


Use your vape regularly to ensure the oil contained within remains the same level of viscosity, fluidity, and quality. If not used for a long time, the oil may become thicker, crystallize, leak, or even degrade due to heat, light, and/or air exposure.


3. Quality Products


Purchasing good disposable vapes can help to avoid problems such as no smoke production. Brands that are well-recognized in the market for their quality and consistency typically do not encounter the aforementioned problems.
