2019 was a very nerve-wracking year for ALL vapers in many countries. (Well, maybe not the United Kingdom.) The UK learned a few years ago just how effective e-cigarettes were as a smoking cessation device. They quickly set up rules and regulations that allowed any adult in the UK to vape, vape flavors, and vape thousands of choices of mods, tanks, and e-liquids.
In 2019 the USA lived through a nightmare around the harmless act of vaping. A nightmare that had, and still has, the non-vaping people believing that vaping is deadlier than smoking tobacco cigarettes. As crazy as that sounds, it is not an exaggeration.
We’re still writing about the continued fallout of what happens when ignorance meets corruption, every day, but today we are here to isolate the Best “Open’ Pod Kits to start off the new year right. Buying one of these excellent vape pod mod in January 2020, means that it will be available come December 2020, or perhaps an updated and improved model to boot. (closed pod mod systems will soon be banned. Not that it makes much legal sense, but closed pod systems are awfully expensive and the pre-filled e-juice is mostly terrible.)
In the next component we’ll spend a few minutes explaining the difference between an ‘open’ and ‘closed’ vape pod system.

The Open Vape Pod Mod
The Vape Community (referred to now as #vapeFam on Twitter) grew very quickly back in the day. During the early years companies tried to capture lightening in the bottle. Over and over. To no avail. Design and build a device, fill it with a flavored liquid, then go! Some worked. Some did not.
Years of battles. Millions in wasted dollars. More millions that proved a certain harmlessness in a simple mixture of propylene glycol, vegetable glycerin, pure flavoring, and relatively low levels of nicotine is all there is to it. With an open pod system the person has freedom to fill the pod with whatever juice the wanted.
The Closed Vape Pod Mod
We admit that when the Federal Level Rules came down and it was decided that the closed pod mod systems would no longer be allowed to sale flavored pods we didn’t exactly moan and groan about it. A closed pod means that the e-liquid is sealed inside the pod and the only way to get it out is to use it (or smash it open, I suppose).
If a Vaper decided to go that route, to buy a battery operated mod to use the pre-filled pods, then no matter what, the enduser was stuck using the pre-filled pods. And let us say, today’s pre-filled pods can’t hold a candle to the only pre-filled ‘cartomizer’ set up that actually delivered the goods (BluCigs with Johnson Creek filled cartomizers).
