alt. Starter Kits

The alt. starter kit is a compact, closed pod system that includes the alt. device and a prefilled replacement pod, giving you everything required to begin vaping in one package. The kit is designed to be simple to use with no buttons, settings, or coils to manage, making it a practical option for those transitioning from smoking. The alt. range is a VAPO house brand designed specifically for the New Zealand market.

alt. starter kits are available in Menthol, Menthol Mint, and Tobacco flavours. These profiles are intended to provide familiar taste references for adults who are accustomed to smoking. Additional flavour options are available through the wider alt. replacement pod range, which can be used with the alt. device once the starter kit pod has been exhausted.

alt. starter kits are available at 28.5mg/mL, which is the nicotine strength used across the VAPO house brand closed pod range. This concentration uses a nicotine salt formulation, which is designed to deliver a smoother throat sensation at higher nicotine levels compared to freebase nicotine. Nicotine is a highly addictive substance; this product is not suitable for non-smokers or people under 18.

The alt. device is compatible with alt. Nu Pods and Classic alt. pods, but is not cross-compatible with other pod systems such as solo, alt. X, or third-party brands. Pods are proprietary to each device range to ensure a consistent fit and performance. When shopping for replacement pods, always check compatibility with your specific alt. device before purchasing.

The alt. and alt. X are both closed pod systems from VAPO's house brand range, but they use different pods and are not cross-compatible. The alt. X features an expanded flavour range compared to the original alt., including fruit and specialty editions in addition to the classic Menthol and Tobacco profiles. If you are deciding between the two, consider the flavour options available for each range before purchasing.
