Fuzion Flavor – Frequently Asked Questions

About Fuzion Flavor

Who is Fuzion Flavor?

Fuzion Flavor (also known as Fuzion Vapor) is an independent premium e-liquid manufacturer founded in 2011 by Shane Johnson in St. Augustine, Florida. What started on a kitchen table has become one of the most recognized names in vaping, known for legendary flavors like Unicorn Blood and Krankberry. Unlike many brands, Fuzion has remained independently owned and has never sold to Big Tobacco.

How did Fuzion Flavor start?

Fuzion’s origin story began in 2011 when Shane’s 8-year-old daughter came home from school and said, “Daddy, I don’t want you to die.” After learning about smoking dangers at school, this moment prompted Shane to quit smoking immediately. He bought a cigalike at the mall, which worked but tasted terrible. Determined to find better flavors, Shane started mixing his own e-liquids on his kitchen table. Friends and family loved the flavors and were able to quit smoking using them. With a $500 loan from his father, Fuzion Flavor was born.

Why is it called “Fuzion”?

Initially, Shane mixed vitamins (B12, valerian, melatonin) into the e-liquid, creating a “fusion” of vaping and vitamins—hence the name “Fuzion.” After a few months, he discovered that heating the e-liquid removed the medicinal qualities of vitamins, but the name stuck. It represents our commitment to fusing innovation with quality.

How long has Fuzion Flavor been in business?

Fuzion was founded in 2011 and has been serving the vaping community for over 13 years. We’re one of the original pioneers who helped build the modern vaping industry from the ground up.

What makes Fuzion Flavor different from other vape brands?

Independent ownership: Never sold to Big Tobacco
Industry pioneers: Helped establish industry standards for bottle sizes, nicotine levels, and pricing (2012-2014)
Legendary flavors: Created iconic flavors like Unicorn Blood and Krankberry that are still top sellers today
First movers: One of the first companies in the US (and possibly the world) to create fruit-flavored e-liquids when everything was tobacco or mint
Community-driven: Many flavors originated from customer contests and feedback
Methylnicotine (Nixodine-S): Uses synthetic nicotine that’s FDA-recognized as a supplement, not tobacco-derived
Rewards program: Automatic points with every purchase that can be redeemed for free products

Is Fuzion Flavor a legitimate company with history?

Absolutely. Fuzion has been operating since 2011 and was instrumental in building the vaping industry. Between 2012-2014, Shane and a few other company founders would get on weekly phone calls to establish industry standards—the pricing, bottle sizes, and nicotine levels they created are still used today. We’re proud to say we helped create an entire industry.

Why did the website change from fuzionvapor.com to fuzionflavor.com?

In September 2025, we launched our completely redesigned website at fuzionflavor.com. After 13 years on our original platform, it was time for a major upgrade to better serve our customers. Here’s what changed:

Why we rebuilt from the ground up:
– Outdated technology: Our old Magento 2 system was slow, clunky, and held together with digital duct tape
– Poor mobile experience: The old site wasn’t optimized for smartphones and tablets
– Security concerns: Older infrastructure meant potential vulnerabilities
– Limited features: We couldn’t implement modern conveniences customers expect

What improved:
– Lightning-fast performance: Our new site scores 99/100 on Google PageSpeed Insights
– Mobile-optimized: Seamless shopping experience on any device
– Enhanced security: State-of-the-art encryption and secure checkout
– Google One-Tap Sign In: Log in instantly with your Google account—no passwords to remember
– Automatic rewards program: Earn points with every purchase, visible in your account dashboard
– Modern design: Clean, professional interface that’s easy to navigate
– Better product discovery: Improved search and filtering to find your perfect flavor

The migration was seamless—all customer accounts, order history, and loyalty points transferred automatically. If you had an account on our old site, you can log in with the same credentials (or use Google One-Tap for even faster access).

We’re still the same Fuzion you’ve trusted since 2011—just with a website that matches our commitment to quality and innovation.

Rewards Program

How does the Fuzion Flavor Rewards Program work?

Every purchase automatically earns you points toward free products. There’s no sign-up required, no forms to fill out, and no hoops to jump through—just shop and earn. It’s our way of saying thank you for being part of the Fuzion family.

Here’s how it works:
– Earn 1 point for every $1 spent
– Redeem 200 points for a free 60ml bottle
– Points automatically added to your account with every order
– Check your balance anytime in your account dashboard at fuzionflavor.com/my-account
– No separate login required – your points are tied to your customer account

How do I check my rewards balance?

Simply log into your account at fuzionflavor.com/my-account. Your current points balance and redemption options are displayed on your dashboard. You can track points earned, points redeemed, and how close you are to your next free bottle.

Do rewards points expire?

Yes, points expire 6 months after they’re earned. This encourages regular engagement and ensures points are used while your favorite flavors are still fresh in stock. Active customers who order regularly will never lose points—they’ll accumulate faster than they expire.

Can I use points on any product?

Points can be redeemed for any 60ml traditional e-liquid in our catalog. Whether you want to try something new or stock up on your go-to flavor, your rewards have you covered.

What if I’m a new customer—do I start earning points right away?

Absolutely! From your very first purchase, you’re automatically enrolled in our rewards program. There’s nothing to activate or sign up for—just create an account at checkout (or sign in with Google One-Tap), and you’re earning points immediately.

Can I combine rewards with discounts?

Yes! Rewards points can be stacked with military discounts, local customer discounts, and sale prices. We believe in rewarding loyalty at every level.

Products & Nicotine

What is methylnicotine (Nixodine-S)?

All Fuzion Flavor products use Nixodine-S, a form of methylnicotine. It’s lab-created synthetic nicotine that provides the same experience and throat hit as traditional nicotine but with key differences:
– Not tobacco-derived: Contains no tobacco leaf materials
– Higher purity: Lab-created for consistent quality
– FDA-recognized as a supplement: Classified differently than tobacco-derived nicotine
– Does not show up on nicotine tests
– No benzoic acid: Unlike traditional salt nicotine, our methylnicotine doesn’t contain benzoic acid (which strips tooth enamel and constricts blood vessels)

What’s the difference between traditional and salt nicotine at Fuzion Flavor?

Traditional E-Liquids (Freebase Nicotine):
– Bottle Size: 60ml
– Nicotine Strengths: 0mg, 3mg, 6mg, 12mg, 18mg, 24mg
– Best For: Sub-ohm vaping, cloud production, direct-to-lung devices
– Uses: Methylnicotine (Nixodine-S)

Salt Nicotine E-Liquids:
– Bottle Size: 30ml
– Nicotine Strength: 36mg
– Best For: Pod systems, mouth-to-lung vaping, lower wattage devices
– Uses: Methylnicotine salt (still synthetic, not benzoic acid-based)

Even our “salt nic” uses methylnicotine—you get all the benefits of traditional and salt nicotine without the harmful side effects of benzoic acid found in disposables.

How do I choose the right nicotine strength?

Former pack-a-day smokers: Start with 12-18mg traditional or 36mg salt nicotine
Light smokers: 3-6mg traditional is usually perfect
Heavy smokers transitioning: 36mg salt nicotine in a pod system provides the smoothest experience
Stepping down: Start at your current level and gradually reduce over time
Zero nicotine: 0mg is available for those who want flavor without nicotine

For perspective: Our best-selling strength is 3mg (which is actually 0.3% nicotine). Disposables typically contain 5% nicotine—that’s over 16x stronger!

What’s wrong with disposables?

While disposables are convenient, they’ve caused significant problems:
– Made with cheap Chinese e-liquid
– Contain excessive sweetener (sucralose)
– Use 5% nicotine (16x stronger than our 3mg)
– Salt nicotine in disposables contains benzoic acid (strips tooth enamel, constricts blood vessels)
– Environmental nightmare: millions of batteries in landfills with no efficient recycling method
– Created a “fad” culture that brought underage non-smokers into vaping

Fuzion Flavor’s methylnicotine products provide the experience without the harmful side effects.

Legendary Flavors

What is Unicorn Blood?

Unicorn Blood is Fuzion Flavor’s most iconic creation—a rainbow fruit punch with candy notes reminiscent of Skittles. The name came first, the taste followed. It became a legend by 2013 and hasn’t lost its grip since. It’s fruity, mysterious, and addictive. If you’re new to Fuzion, start here. This is the flavor that put us on the map and is still our most talked-about product.

What is Krankberry?

Krankberry was hand-mixed in 2011 on Shane’s kitchen table in St. Augustine. It’s blue raspberry with a tart cranberry bite that hits hard and hooks fast. It’s been Fuzion Flavor’s original flavor and best seller since 2012. It was meant to taste like “blue razz chaos”—and it blew up. If you know, you know. First crush energy. Still hits.

What’s the story behind “Roundhouse with Cream”?

This was actually Fuzion Flavor’s very first flavor, Roundhouse with Cream, originally called “Chuck Norris Blood”—a strawberry cream blend. In 2012, we received a cease and desist from Chuck Norris’s legal team. We changed the name to “Roundhouse with Cream” and now joke that we’re the only vape company that got sued by Chuck Norris and lived. The flavor remains unchanged—smooth strawberry with rich cream.

What is Rasta Blood?

Rasta Blood is fresh strawberry with white chocolate and a hint of cannabis-inspired flavor (no actual THC). Originally called “Bob Marley Blood,” Shane launched it in 2012-2013 as a joke on ECF (Electronic Cigarette Forum) to troll the elitists. The feedback was polarizing, but it went viral and is still a top seller today. Bold and unapologetic—just like Fuzion Flavor.

What makes Fuzion Flavor’s flavors special?

Fuzion was one of the first companies in the US (and possibly the world) to create fruit-flavored e-liquids. In 2011-2012, everything was tobacco or mint. We pioneered bold, unique fruit blends that became legends. Many of our flavors originated from customer contests and community feedback—they’re made by vapers, for vapers. When you vape Fuzion, you’re tasting over a decade of flavor innovation.

Shipping & Orders

Where does Fuzion Flavor ship?

We legally ship to all 50 U.S. states without exception. This includes states with vape restrictions. Because our products use methylnicotine (Nixodine-S), which is FDA-recognized as a supplement rather than tobacco-derived nicotine, we’re not restricted by state laws aimed at traditional nicotine products. If you can enter your address at checkout, we’ll ship it.

We also ship internationally.

Do I need to sign for my package?

No adult signature is required on delivery. Your order will be left at your door or in your mailbox like any standard package.

How fast do orders ship?

Most orders ship the next business day after purchase. We know you’re excited to get your favorite flavors, so we work fast to get them to you.

Shipping times:
– First Class: 3-5 business days
– Priority: 2-3 business days

What’s your return policy?

We pride ourselves on 100% customer satisfaction. If you’re unhappy for any reason—even if you just don’t like the flavor—we’ll send a replacement flavor or refund you. If your product is damaged or lost in transit, we’ll replace it at no charge. No questions asked. Your satisfaction is our priority, and we stand behind every bottle.

Discounts & Programs

Do you offer military or first responder discounts?

Yes! Military members, veterans, and first responders receive an automatic 10% discount on all orders. Simply email Shane at shane@fuzionvapor.com with proof of service, and you’ll be added to the discount group. It’s our small way of saying thank you for your service.

Company History & Fun Facts

Did celebrities really use Fuzion Flavor products?

Yes! In the early days, many movie stars and famous musicians used Fuzion products, including:
– Robert Downey Jr.
– Miley Cyrus
– LeAnn Rimes
– Shiny Toy Guns
– Tech N9ne
– Apoptygma Berzerk
– SITD, CHROME
– DJ Pauly D and Snooki from Jersey Shore

In the TV series Jersey Shore, you can spot bottles of Unicorn Blood next to the cast’s beds throughout multiple scenes. That kind of organic visibility helped Fuzion become a household name in vaping culture.

Was Fuzion Flavor involved in sports sponsorships?

Yes! Fuzion was the first vape company to have a professional sports sponsorship. We sponsored many MMA superstars, most famously Justin Gaethje. This was groundbreaking at a time when the vaping industry was still fighting for legitimacy and mainstream recognition.

What about the cleanroom facility?

In 2015, Fuzion had the largest cleanroom on the East Coast—10,000 square feet, larger than even pharmaceutical labs. Quality and cleanliness have always been priorities. While our facility has evolved, our commitment to manufacturing excellence remains unwavering.

Did Fuzion Flavor really donate $1 million to charity?

Yes. For many years, Fuzion had a “Juice of the Month” program where we’d donate 50% of sales to charity chosen by Facebook polls. After seeing how much went to “operational costs” instead of those in need, Shane created Fuzion Charities, a 501(c) nonprofit. This allowed 100% of donations to go directly to local communities.

Fuzion Charities provided:
– Food for the needy
– Toys and bikes for children at Christmas
– Trained support dogs for military veterans
– Financial assistance to those struggling with hardship

Overall, Fuzion donated close to $1,000,000 to those who truly needed it. Giving back has always been part of our DNA.

What happened to the vape conventions?

Between 2012-2018, Fuzion attended conventions around the world. It was community-based—people would leave with bags of swag and dozens of free bottles. There were even “cloud competitions” where vapers competed for the largest vapor cloud. The FDA eventually shut down these conventions because you couldn’t give away “samples.” Many long-time vapers remember these as the glory days of vaping culture. While conventions are gone, the community spirit lives on.

Did Fuzion Flavor send care packages to military?

Yes! Between 2013-2020, when vaping was still fairly new, many military members transitioned from smoking to vaping but couldn’t find products where they were deployed. Fuzion set up a program and every month sent “vape care packages” to military bases overseas. Supporting those who serve has always been important to us.

What’s the TPD story?

Fuzion was the first company in the UK to have an approved TPD (Tobacco Products Directive) product—basically the seal of approval by the UK government. However, the market found loopholes shortly after, making TPD largely worthless. It was a frustrating experience that highlighted the regulatory challenges facing the vaping industry.

What about the FDA and PMTA?

In 2020, the FDA required vape companies to register and create a PMTA (Pre-Market Tobacco Application). This took hundreds of man-hours and tens of thousands of dollars in time, resources, and legal fees. Sadly, the FDA didn’t follow through with enforcement, and non-compliant manufacturers made cheap e-liquid and undercut the industry with little to no overhead. Fuzion Flavor completed the process to remain compliant because doing things the right way matters.

Technical & Compliance

Is Fuzion Flavor FDA compliant?

Yes. Fuzion submitted PMTA (Pre-Market Tobacco Applications) as required by the FDA in 2020. All products are manufactured in FDA-registered facilities using USP-grade ingredients. We follow the rules, even when others don’t.

What quality standards does Fuzion Flavor follow?

USP-grade ingredients (pharmaceutical quality)
Synthetic nicotine (Nixodine-S/methylnicotine)
FDA PMTA submissions filed
Independent lab testing for purity and consistency
Made in USA
FDA-registered manufacturing facilities
Rigorous quality control at every production stage

Quality isn’t just a buzzword for us—it’s how we’ve maintained customer trust for over 13 years.

Search & Discovery

People search for “Fusion Vape” – is that you?

Yes! We’re often searched as “Fusion Vape” (with an ‘s’), but we’re Fuzion Flavor (with a ‘z’). We’re the original company, established in 2011. If you’re looking for legendary vape juice with over a decade of proven quality, you found us.

What happened to the old-school labels?

The early Fuzion labels were chaotic, DIY, and unforgettable. Some collectors still have bottles with the pixelated Krankberry skull. They’re part of vaping history. We’ve updated our branding for professionalism, but the rebel DNA remains. We’re still the same company that started on a kitchen table—just with better packaging.

Are there secret flavors?

Ask the right people and you might hear rumors. The vault runs deep. We’ve created hundreds of flavors over the years—some became legends, others were limited runs. If you’re a long-time Fuzion fan, you know there’s always something brewing. Keep an eye on our social media for surprise drops and limited editions.
