Mistic: Bridging a Vaping Gap
The new Mistic Bridge is, as the name implies, an innovation
that offers a “bridge” between disposable vaping products
and personal vaporizers or vapors/tanks/mods (VPMs). It is
basically a refillable tank, similar to those used in personal
vaporizers, that fits onto cig-alike batteries like a cartridge,
enabling vapers to use any e-juice flavors available for
VTMs in the convenient size of an e-cig. What’s more, the
Bridge works with multiple brands, not only Mistic products.
For example, it will fit a blu eCig or MarkTen battery. Mistic,
