Use our Nicotine Shot Calculator to work out exactly how many shots to add to your shortfill.
What Are Nic Shots?
Nic shots (nicotine shots) are 10ml bottles of nicotine designed to be mixed with larger shortfill e-liquids. Because shortfills contain no nicotine, adding nic shots lets you create your preferred strength while staying fully TPD compliant. Nic shots come in a range of VG/PG ratios and nicotine types, allowing you to tailor the vape experience to your device.
Which Nic Shot Should I Choose?
The right nic shot depends on your shortfill and your device. For most 70VG shortfills, a high VG nic shot is ideal. For 50/50 shortfills or longfills, a 50/50 nic shot blends more evenly. Nic salt shots offer a smoother inhale, while freebase shots provide a stronger throat hit.
- 50/50 Nic Shots — best for 50/50 shortfills and longfills.
- 70VG Nic Shots — perfect for 70/30 shortfills and sub-ohm vaping.
- 100% VG Nic Shots — ideal for max VG mixes and cloud chasers.
- 100% PG Nic Shots — used for DIY mixers who want a stronger throat hit.
- Nic Salt Shots — smoother inhale, great for higher strengths.
How to Mix Nic Shots Into Shortfills
Shortfills are designed with space in the bottle so you can add nic shots. A typical 50ml shortfill requires one 18mg nic shot to make 3mg. A 100ml shortfill requires two nic shots. For exact measurements, use our Nicotine Shot Calculator.
Steps:
- Remove the shortfill cap and nib.
- Add the correct number of nic shots.
- Replace the nib and cap.
- Shake well for 30–60 seconds.
- Let it settle for best flavour.
PG/VG Ratios Explained
PG (propylene glycol) carries flavour and provides throat hit. VG (vegetable glycerine) creates vapour and smoothness. Your nic shot should match your shortfill’s VG/PG ratio for the best consistency. If you’re unsure, use our VG/PG Calculator to check your final mix.

3. What strength are nic shots?
Most nic shots are 18mg or 20mg. These are designed to dilute down when mixed with shortfills.

Freebase shots give a stronger throat hit, while nic salt shots provide a smoother inhale even at higher strengths.
5. Which VG/PG ratio should I choose?

6. Can I use nic shots on their own?
