100ml E-Liquid Bottle – What is it in Vaping?

Definition

A 100ml E-Liquid Bottle is a mid-size container designed to hold 100 millilitres of VapeJuice“>vape juice. It serves as a cost-effective and convenient way for Australian vapers to store larger quantities of nicotine-free (0mg) or nicotine-containing e-liquid, reducing the need for frequent re-purchases. The bottle is typically made of food-grade PET or HDPE plastic, featuring a child-resistant cap and a thin nozzle for mess-free refilling of tanks, pods, or rebuildable atomisers with Thread“>510 thread connections.

Technical Details

Most 100ml e-liquid bottles comply with TGO 110 Australian safety standards. The cylindrical vessel measures roughly 45 mm in diameter and 130 mm in height, offering a total volume of 100 ml ±5 %. Common variations include:

• Chubby Gorilla-style PET with an 18 mm wide cap and 2 mm bore tip for high-VG juices.
• Squeeze HDPE with a 28 mm flip-top and 3 mm nozzle ideal for thinner 50/50 blends.
• Glass dropper options for premium shortfills, though less common at this size.

Each bottle is rated to withstand temperatures from –20 °C to 60 °C and is compatible with both Nicotine“>freebase nicotine and nicotine salt concentrates when DIY mixing.

Usage & Tips

For best results, store your 100ml e-liquid bottle in a cool, dark cupboard away from devices powered by 18650, 21700, or 26650 batteries to prevent heat degradation. Shake vigorously before every refill to homogenise flavour and nicotine. If the nozzle clogs, rinse with warm water and dry thoroughly. Always keep the child-lock engaged and never decant into unlabelled containers—Australian poison centres report most incidents stem from unmarked bottles.

History & Context

The 100ml size gained popularity after the EU’s 2017 TPD capped nicotine-containing bottles at 10 ml. Australian retailers adopted the format for shortfill “doublers,” allowing users to add 20 ml nicotine shot to reach 120 ml at 3 mg strength, combining economy with legal compliance.
