None of the ingredients are considered cancer-causing agents. We also have gas chromatography and mass spectrometry testing to analyze every ingredient in our product. Our third party independent lab results are available on our website or to any customer who contacts us and would like them emailed.
What is a cartridge?
The Liberty Stix cartridge looks like the filter of a traditional cigarette, yet it is much more. The cartridge contains the liquid nicotine and flavor that you get when you use a Liberty Stix Original Smokeless Nicotine Mist Electronic Cigarette. The cartridges come in different strengths of High (24mg), Medium (18mg), Low (11mg), and Zero. Additionally, there are also various flavors: Tobacco, Vanilla, Mint, Chocolate, Coffee, and Cherry.
How long does one cartridge last?
The Liberty Stix Eagle Cartridge is about the equivalent to a pack of cigarettes, depending on the user. This formula of equivalency is determined by the number of ‘puffs’ one would get from a Liberty Stix Eagle electronic cigarette cartridge (200+) and the number of nicotine ‘fixes’ one would consume from one cartridge. The first generation Liberty Stix Cartridge lasts approximately (60-80 puffs).
When do I replace my Liberty Stix Cartridge?
You should replace your cartridge when the vapor production has significantly reduced. This is usually an indication that the nicotine cartridge is almost empty.
I have a Liberty Stix Brand unit, but can I buy my cartridges through someone else?
Yes, you can, but you should not engage in this cost cutting practice. Our product manufacturing procedures upholds quality in the highest regard, and our product is very reliable in the field of Electronic Cigarettes and we produce a premium brand cartridge. We can’t vouch for the reliability or ingredients, and potential additives, which may be in cartridges of unknown origin or from unknown sources. You are already making a safer choice by switching to a smokeless nicotine delivery device. Is risking that safety by purchasing less expensive cartridges of unknown origin worth that risk? These cartridges may also damage your hardware, and buying other cartridges or liquid voids your warranty.
Do I need a lighter for Liberty Stix?
No you do not need a lighter. It is fully electronic.
How do I turn my Liberty Stix device on or off?
Liberty Stix does not have an on or off switch. When you inhale, the device turns on, and when you are done, simply put the device back in your pocket or purse and it will shut off automatically.
How long will the battery last before needing a recharge?
The battery will last for approximately one day with normal use. However, if you are a more intermittent smoker, which is one common trait of people who switch to Liberty Stix, the battery may last several days. You may also purchase another battery, as a back- up (only $22.50), so you can always have one battery fully charged while you charge the other. You will know your battery is low when the light on the end of your Liberty Stix flashes (the flashing light indicates your unit needs to be charged).How long does the battery take to charge?
The battery takes less than 3 hours to charge, but needs an initial full charge to prime the first time around. After a few charges, you will fully realize the potential of a fully charged battery.
Can I get nicotine poisoning if I continue to use Liberty Stix?
No, you will not get nicotine poisoning from using Liberty Stix. Our product has a built in electronic security system which shuts the unit down automatically if too many inhalations occur within a short time period, or if you take an inhalation over 8 seconds long.

What is the smoke that is exhaled after taking a ‘drag’ from a Liberty Stix device?
Actually it isn’t smoke that you are exhaling. It is a harmless mist/vapor that contains distilled water and propylene glycol. Propylene glycol is an ingredient that is generally recognized as safe by the FDA. It is an organic compound that is usually a faintly sweet, odorless, and colorless clear viscous liquid. It is used in many food products and other consumable goods that humans safely use. It leaves no residue in the air and will not harm anyone around you.
Do Liberty Stix have an odor?
No the mist/vapor has no odor, but may occasionally have a light essence from the nicotine cartridges. However, studies have shown this is almost never detectable unless a person is within a foot of exhaled mist/vapor.
Do Liberty Stix have a taste?
The taste of Liberty Stix resembles a cigarette, but feels much smoother and cleaner as there are none of the by-products associated with real tobacco and smoke. Additionally, there are several flavors to choose from such as: vanilla, mint, cherry, chocolate, and coffee.
Where can I use Liberty Stix?
You can use them almost ANYWHERE, ANYTIME, since it does not release real smoke just harmless mist/vapor. However, some people who are not familiar with the Liberty Stix may ask you not to smoke, until you explain that it’s not a traditional cigarette, and it’s not real smoke. We have found that it actually is a great social setting ice breaker. There is also some limited/restricted use around small areas of the country.
What does it mean when the indicator light flashes at the end of the battery?
The flashing light at the top of the device indicates that the battery is low and needs to be recharged or the security system has activated (indicating too long of an inhale).
Can anyone use Liberty Stix?
No, Liberty Stix is intended for use by adults only and it is not to be used by pregnant women, minors under the age of 18, and those that are sensitive to nicotine. This product is not meant for non-smokers, but only persons looking to switch to a safer alternative than traditional combustible tobacco cigarettes.
Have Liberty Stix been ‘approved’ by the FDA?
Like traditional cigarettes, electronic cigarettes are not approved by the FDA. Additionally, this product is not meant to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.
