Pick from our range of naturally crafted botanical Cores. Crisp Mint, Juicy Mango, Fresh Strawberry, Coffee, Blueberry and Orange. Each blended from 100% plant compounds.

2

Load the Device

Pull open the barrel, click the cradle onto your Core, dial the internal airflow valve to your preferred resistance, and snap it closed. Ready in five seconds.

3

Breathe and Fidget

Inhale naturally the moment the urge hits. Spin the thumb wheel or twist the clicking barrel to keep your hands busy. Replace your Core every 5 to 7 days.

The Science

Designed to replace the hand-to-mouth ritual

Independent peer-reviewed research shows that combining flavour stimulation, hand fidgeting and the hand-to-mouth ritual addresses behavioural drivers that nicotine replacement alone cannot. Third-party toxicology reports confirm our botanical Cores produce no harmful byproducts on inhalation.

What the Science Says

Independent research on behavioural habit replacement, hand-to-mouth fixation, and sensory-based cessation tools.

PubMed / Preventive Medicine
“The hand-held flavoured inhaler significantly reduced carbon monoxide levels and enhanced smoking abstinence rates. Craving and negative affect were alleviated, effects that nicotine patches could not achieve in this subgroup.”

Clinical Evaluation of a Citric Acid Inhaler for Smoking Cessation

Westman et al., Preventive Medicine • 1995

PMC / Nicotine & Tobacco Research
“The hand-to-mouth ritual was identified as the core unaddressed driver of habit, one that patches and gum failed to replicate. Devices addressing this physical behaviour significantly improved cessation adherence.”

NRT Uptake, Consistent Use and Persistence: A Qualitative Analysis

Oncken et al., Nicotine & Tobacco Research • 2023

Read the study
PMC / BMC Public Health
“Devices replicating the hand-to-mouth movement were rated more acceptable and effective than alternatives lacking this action, because they addressed the physical behaviour, not just nicotine dependence.”

“This worked for me”

I tried the gum and two different apps. None of them worked. The fidget is actually really good, I like clicking it. Flavours are honestly good, I like the Minty one.

I don't reach for my vape first thing anymore. The fidget spinner is actually pretty satisfying and so are the flavours.

As someone who smoked for twelve years, the handle twisting keeps my fingers busy when i want to smoke. Found myself playing with it more than anything else.

“Took a few days to get used to”

First few days I wasn't sure but stuck with it. By day 10 I had no cravings. Four stars only because I wish there were more flavours.
