4% vs 5% Nicotine: The Lower-Strength End of Our Range and Who Each Suits
With a refillable setup you pick a strength off a shelf. With a sealed disposable you pick a device, and the strength arrives welded to it — unadjustable, and across our range essentially binary. Our IGET Moon listings state 4%; our other main lines state 5%. One percentage point apart, and for a good chunk of what we sell, no number is published at all.
Where these two numbers come from
Worth being precise, because plenty of sites are not. We rechecked IGET's own product pages on 14 August 2026: the spec blocks for the Bar, Bar Pro, ONE and Moon publish coil resistance, puff rating, dimensions and materials — and neither nicotine strength nor liquid volume. Not on one page, not on any of them.
So when we say 4% or 5%, that comes from our own listings and the supplier documentation behind them, not from a manufacturer spec sheet you could check yourself. You should know which kind of fact you are being handed; how to read a vape listing covers that field by field, and the conversion — 4% is 40mg/mL, 5% is 50mg/mL — is in nicotine strength explained.
What one percentage point actually feels like
What you are buying is the character of the grab at the back of the throat in the first second. More nicotine in the vapour makes that arrival sharper and drier; less makes it rounder and softer. That is the whole difference. A 4% device is not a weaker product, a thinner draw or less flavour — vapour volume, coil and flavour loading are unrelated to the figure. It is a different texture on the same cloud.
The knock-on effect is the interesting part. A sharp arrival is loud, and loud things mask quiet things. Customers moving to our Moon listings from a 5% line commonly tell us the flavour reads clearer rather than the device reads weaker. Strength is one of the knobs behind why the same flavour tastes different across brands.
Two things that move the hit more than the last percentage point
The coil, and how you inhale
Coil resistance is published, unlike strength. IGET states a 1.2Ω mesh coil in the Bar and Bar Pro, 1.35Ω mesh in the Moon and a 0.6Ω dual mesh in the ONE. Retailer technical guides agree: lower resistance runs hotter and pushes more vapour per puff, and warmer, denser vapour lands harder whatever is dissolved in it.
Then the free variable nobody adjusts. A tight mouth-to-lung pull delivers warm, concentrated vapour to a small area; a long open lung draw dilutes it with far more air and spreads the arrival out. Same device, same percentage, different hit — see our MTL vs DTL draw guide.
The form the nicotine is in
The axis most strength comparisons miss. Salt-based and freebase formulations feel materially different at an identical percentage, because the acid in a salt formulation lowers the liquid's pH, and pH drives throat sensation harder than milligrams do. A percentage alone is not a promise about feel — see nic salts vs freebase.
What our listings state, range by range
| Range | Strength our listing states | What that means for you |
| IGET Moon 5000 | 4% (40mg/mL) | The only 4% line we stock. Softer arrival, flavour more separated. Non-rechargeable. |
| IGET Bar 3500 | 5% | The reference point most Australian users know. No charging port. |
| IGET Bar Pro 10000 | 5% | Same 5%, same 1.2Ω coil, far longer run. No charging port. |
| Alibarbar Ingot | 5% (50mg/mL) | Stated on the multi-flavour box and every single but one, which prints no figure. |
| GROO MAX | Not published — we won't guess | Unknown to us. USB-C. |
| GODFATHER 9 | Not published — we won't guess | Unknown to us. Pod system. |
| IGET ONE 12000 | Not published — we won't guess | Unknown to us, but the 0.6Ω dual mesh feels big regardless. USB-C. |
| G.T. | Not published — we won't guess | Unknown to us. USB-C. |
Four blanks is not a gap we enjoy printing, but inventing figures to fill a column would be worse.
Who each end suits
The 4% end
IGET Moon is the entire answer here. It suits anyone who found a 5% device sharper than they wanted, anyone who draws long and open rather than tight, and anyone chasing flavour detail in multi-fruit blends. The head-to-head is in IGET Moon 5000 vs IGET Bar 3500.
One honest note: the Moon box listing is titled 17 Flavours, but at the time of writing only six can be ordered as singles — Dragon Fruit Lemon Ice, Green Grape Pomegranate Cherry, Passion Fruit Kiwi Guava Ice, Pomegranate Kiwi Ice, Strawberry Blackberry Cranberry and Strawberry Watermelon. The category page shows what is genuinely orderable today.

The 5% end
If your current device feels right, you are almost certainly already here. This end suits a tight mouth-to-lung draw, and anyone who finds a softer arrival disappearing into the background.

When the listing publishes nothing
Treat it as unknown, not as 5%. You can still read the hardware: a low-resistance dual mesh device lands bigger and warmer than a higher-resistance one. Beyond that the only honest method is empirical — buy one and note where it sits against a device you know. The same applies to the base liquid ratio, which nobody publishes either: see PG vs VG in sealed disposables.
Try one before you buy ten
Strength is the one variable you cannot undo after checkout, so if you have never used a 4% device, buy a single Moon before committing to a box. Everything we ship is 100% original stock, sent Australia-wide in plain discreet packaging, with free shipping on orders of 10 or more — by which point you want to know which end you want ten of. All products are for adults 21 and over.
