Yeti Vape has been in business since 2013. The brand consists of an online store and seven locations spread out across upstate New York, Pennsylvania, and Ohio. Two partners started the company in Lackawanna, NY. The first store opened there, and the business has since grown to include many more locations.
Yeti Vape also maintains a website where customers can browse their selection of e-juices and vape mods. They do not carry any dry herb or concentrates vaporizers. The company also only sells branded e-liquids, so there are no other e-liquid brands. They do offer a wide selection of vape mods and tanks.

Yeti Vape builds on its roots in rural and small-town New York to present itself as a unique, local presence. The Yeti brand and logo are all over its website, and it also features heavily on the company’s e-juice line, which it carries to the exclusion of all others. The site is well-organized and makes navigation very straightforward.
The product selection leaves something to be desired, though. Although they have many product categories like Coils, Cotton and Wire, clicking on those links reveals bare pages more than anything else. The Hardware section features only one product that will be reviewing later. The site does feature a part for Disposables, which is the company’s most well-stocked page.
No word on whether the site’s pages are bare due to the company scaling back because of the flavor vape ban or if they simply need to re-stock. Maybe they have a better selection at their retail locations, and they are not showing it online. In any case, the site also features several Clearance items that make up the bulk of their inventory, it seems.
In the Clearance section, customers can find a wide array of mods, batteries, replacement coils, replacement pods, sub-ohm tanks, RDAs, RDTAs, and squonks. The selection features a good mix of classics like the Wismec Reuleaux while carrying some outdated Aspire items like the Revvo tank.
Yeti Vape Products
The following is just a small sampling of the products Yeti Vape has available on its website. The company could have a more excellent selection of different items in stock at its retail locations, so if you live anywhere near one of its stores, you can check its product line for yourself.
The Cartisan Ego 900 is an eGo-style battery with 510-threading for easy compatibility with many tanks and atomizers. The device comes as a single battery and has no accompanying tank or atomizer. The Cartisan features a soft, rubberized texture, and it has a single operating button.
Users can choose from three different power outputs installed onto the battery’s chip. The battery has an internal capacity of 900mAh, and users can select one of three outputs by clicking the center button three times. Power levels are indicated by color: green = 3.4V, blue = 3.7V, red = 4.2V.
The battery comes with a skirt USB charger. Users, to recharge the battery, can simply remove their atomizer, screw the battery into the charger’s opening and then plug it into any available USB port.
The VooPoo Vinci is a pod device with an internal battery capacity of 1500mAh. It has a power range of 5-40W and its features box mod functioning in a pod system. The device comes with a refillable pod that can hold up to 5.5ml of e-liquid. The pods are not self-contained, and they feature removable coils.
The kit features five different mesh-style coils that come with different ratings. The majority are sub-ohm coils, while one is a mouth-to-lung coil for mouth-to-lung vapers. Users can press fit the coils into the bottom of the pod when they need replacing.
The mod itself features a front-facing OLED so users can adjust their settings. The wattage range can go as high as 40W, but users can also make changes to the device’s settings. The device measures over 104mm (4.0”) with the pod installed at the top.
These Sigelei MS coils are supported by various Sigelei brand sub-ohm tanks and are ideal for users who enjoy vaping in temperature control mode. The coils use organic cotton wicks and stainless steel wire – hence their compatibility with temperature control mode. They have various resistance and ideal wattage range that users can follow for an optimal vaping experience.
The MS coil originally came out with the Sigelei Sobra kit, which is a high-wattage, dual-18650 device with a high wattage output of under 200W. The coils have an optimal range of between 40-80W for the 0.25ohm coils, while the 0.2ohm coil vapes best between 60-120W. Users can also select a mesh-style coil that is also rated at 0.2ohms but fires only between 40-80W.
Ripe Bars are disposable vape devices that feature a nicotine salt solution inside a self-contained unit. The battery inside the device has a capacity of close to 280mAh. The battery self-activates when a user takes a draw. This battery style means that the device has no buttons or any other controls on its simple, pocket-sized frame.
The Bar comes packaged individually, so users need only open it and start vaping to activate it. The nicotine salt solution inside contains 5% nicotine and comes in several flavors. Users can choose from over three different varieties ranging from Blue Razzleberry Pomegranate to Peachy Mango Pineapple.
Yeti Vape creates its proprietary vape juice and sells it exclusively on its website. It carries no other vape juice brand. This selection is from the brand’s Black Label of premium e-juices that consists of two other choices, Napoletano and Beastcake.
Crunchton Sinclair is a mix of a dessert, fruit, and breakfast vape as it features a rich, creamy flavor with blueberries mixed in throughout. Vapers will notice the taste of several characters on the inhales, first the comforting fluffiness of freshly-made pancakes. Then the sweet flavors of the blueberries begin to seep in the right up to the exhale. This e-liquid is available two bottle sizes, 30ml and 120ml. Users can choose from several nicotine strengths ranging from 0mg all the way to 24mg.
Delivery Options
The company currently only ships to addresses in the US, Canada, Great Britain, and US Army personnel throughout the world via APO delivery. Processing time for new orders takes between 2 and 7 days, while the delivery time takes between 2 or 3 days. The company uses the USPS for its deliveries, and delivery time is subject to product availability.
Discounts
Yeti Vape does not have any dedicated discount program for select groups like active-duty military or veterans, nor first responders. Nor does the company run a rewards or loyalty program. The discounts on the Clearance section of their website is the only place users can find deals on vape gear.
Customer Service
Yeti Vape has nothing but glowing reviews from its in-person customers. It makes sense given that the interior of their locations has the feel of a vape bar, where customers can enter and sit on a stool, while the vape-tender attends to them. Yelp is full of warm, positive reviews extolling the friendly and knowledgeable staff. People also compliment the company’s e-juice selection with former residents of the NY or PA area saying how they have to have Yeti e-juice shipped out to them because they are so good.
The Competition
Yeti Vape vs. Halo Cigs
Halo Cigs is one of the original vape companies as its G6 cig-a-like was a popular device for new vapers. The Florida-based vape manufacturer also makes its line of e-juices that are also very popular for its variety of flavors. The brand does not have a physical location, but many vape shops carry Halo-brand e-juices and devices, like the Triton tank. Although it is a classic vape label, the company has been quiet as of late and has not come out with any new devices or e-liquids.
Yeti Vape vs. Central Vapors
Central Vapors is a vape supply retailer based out of Texas. The company has a no-nonsense style, and a no-frills aesthetic as its website is dedicated to offering a great variety of vape gear, DIY supplies and, other vape accessories. The company offers same-day shipping on a lot of products, and it carries over 150 different brands of e-liquid. The company also sells several e-cigs and mods that appeal to both mouth-to-lung and direct-lung vapers. The product line at Central Vapors is much more extensive than Yeti Vape, and it also has a physical location where people can come to shop.
Final Impressions: Yeti Vape Review: A Monster of a Great Vape Company
Yeti Vape is a charming brand that stays close to its roots. What they lack in product selection they make up for in excellent customer service and a welcoming atmosphere at their physical locations. It does not have a massive amount of vape gear, but there is enough to satisfy most new or beginner vapers.
Its vape juice line is the crown jewel of the business. It has over 150 different e-liquids spanning many flavor profiles, nicotine contents, and bottle sizes. The e-juice is of such high-quality that customers in different parts of the country have it shipped to them from the company’s New York state headquarters.
The loyalty of its customers is well-earned, and Yeti Vape may have many more customers to win over with its quality e-liquids and pleasant demeanor.

I was a smoker for over 25 years. In this time I also earned my medical degree with a specialization in addiction treatment and counseling. That period has led me to vaping, my interest started around 2011. I’m fighting the tide of hysteria and dis-information around vaping that emanates from various fronts legislative, cultural and scientific. Having scientific councils support, I’m happy to contribute my thoughts, articles, and expertise.
