Scope (empty only): This tutorial is empty only. It explains how to identify common run formats, how to operate typical on-unit controls for basic function checks (power, mode toggles, readouts), and how to publish stable “instructions” in listings without confusing buyers. We do not discuss contents, potency, physiological effects, or any filling workflows. Brand names are used for identification only; this page is not affiliated with any brand owner.
Quick take (who this tutorial fits)
This is a MoFu tutorial for catalog owners, resellers, and receiving teams who need a clean, repeatable way to explain operation and reduce “expected vs received” disputes—without over-claiming. If you want one hub to route all related traffic, start from: choices lab disposables.
Two rules that keep a tutorial “authoritative” (and low-risk)
- Write what you can verify: on-unit controls, panel layout, label zones, and packaging structure.
- Separate runs by cues: don’t assume every run shares identical tap/click logic—document the differences.
Before you start: identify your run and format (empty only)
“Choices Lab 2G” naming may appear across multiple runs and layouts. Your first job is to identify the format you’re writing about and keep it consistent. Use these two routing anchors to avoid mixing instructions:
- For screen-led runs, browse the screen bucket first: disposables with screen.
- For capacity-language consistency (2g vs 2ml), keep one internal bucket for your catalog taxonomy: 2ml vape pen.
Version note (important)
Tap/click behavior can vary by run. Treat the steps below as a baseline that must be validated against what’s printed on the packaging, inserts (if included), and your own receiving records.
Step-by-step: first-time setup (safe, empty-only checks)
Step 1 — Unbox and remove shipping protections
- Remove any mouthpiece plug, cap, or protective film (if present).
- Check airflow openings for transport tape or dust covers.
- Keep the packaging panels intact for run-cue photos (you’ll use them later in listings and SOPs).
Step 2 — Quick visual inspection (non-destructive)
- Panel wording: confirm the exact spelling and line breaks on the primary panel.
- Label zones: note where version cues appear (front/side/back), and whether they’re consistent across units.
- Housing condition: avoid using or distributing units with cracks, severe misalignment, or loose mouthpieces.
Step 3 — Safe “empty only” function check
You can verify basic responsiveness (power/wake, readout, mode toggles) without turning a tutorial into a performance review:
- Use brief interactions only (short taps/clicks); avoid long holds and avoid repeated activations during checks.
- For screen-led runs, confirm the display wakes and changes states consistently across a sample set (e.g., 10 units).
- Log any mismatches immediately as a separate run—don’t “average” them into one listing.
What to record (fast checklist)
- Primary panel photo (same angle + distance)
- Secondary panel / identifier zone photo (if present)
- Screen state photo (if present)
- Short note: “Run cue = screen window left / label zone top-right” (keep it repeatable)
Step-by-step: common controls (tap/click logic)
For a practical, run-specific baseline, anchor your “instructions” to a single reference page and keep the wording stable. Here is a clean reference point you can use as the canonical target for your instruction anchor text: choices lab 2g disposable instructions.
Baseline control map (publish this only after you verify it matches your run)
| Action | What to write in listings | Receiving verification tip |
|---|---|---|
| Power | “5 clicks: on/off” | Confirm the same response across a sample set; isolate any outliers as a separate run. |
| Status / current selection | “1 tap: show current selection (if supported)” | Use a photo of the readout/state as the evidence anchor for your run record. |
| Switch selection | “2 taps: switch selection (if supported)” | Log “selection A/B” labels exactly as displayed; don’t rename them in support replies. |
| Combined mode | “3 taps: combined mode (if supported)” | Document the visible cue that indicates mode change (readout/icon behavior). |
Keep the phrasing conditional (“if supported”) unless your run is fully validated. This avoids the #1 cause of returns: instructions that were copied from a different run layout.
Step-by-step: screen readouts (for screen runs)
Screen-led runs need tighter documentation because buyers expect the readout behavior to match what the listing implies. Use one screen-run reference page for consistent screenshots and naming. A clear target is: Choiceslab 2g with screen.
What to describe (and what to avoid)
- Describe: where the screen sits, what fields appear, and what changes when you tap/click.
- Avoid: performance promises, duration claims, or any content-related claims you can’t verify from records.
Best-practice screenshots (minimum set)
- Screen off (idle)
- Screen awake (default state)
- State after a mode change (if supported)
Run-cue wording that stays neutral
Prefer: “Front readout shows state changes after tap sequences.”
Avoid: “Tracks X perfectly” or “guarantees Y.”
Best practices (handling, storage, and documentation)
Handling and storage (empty only)
- Store upright when possible to reduce internal residue movement and keep mouthpieces clean during handling.
- Keep cartons sealed until your run cues are confirmed; mixing cartons early creates irreversible catalog mistakes.
- Use consistent temperature and humidity practices for packaging integrity (especially for seal labels and print).
Documentation that reduces disputes
- One run = one record: photos, notes, and any state/readout screenshots live together.
- One instruction string: publish one validated control map per run—don’t “combine” maps.
- One support answer: your CS replies should mirror the listing instruction string word-for-word.
Counterfeit risk posture (documentation-first)
Treat high-recognition naming as copyable. The safest posture is evidence: consistent photos, run cues, and link/QR endpoint logs. For general counterfeit risk context, see U.S. CBP guidance and the USTR Notorious Markets report (PDF).
Troubleshooting (non-destructive, empty only)
Issue: unresponsive taps/clicks
- Confirm any shipping lock state is cleared (some runs require a wake sequence before showing a response).
- Use your baseline power sequence first (e.g., “5 clicks”) before assuming a fault.
- Inspect the touch/button area for protective film; remove only if it’s clearly a transport layer.
Issue: screen stays blank (screen runs)
- Try the documented wake/power sequence and compare against a known-good sample from the same carton.
- Check for run mismatch: similar naming with different panel layout often correlates with different screen behavior.
- Record the mismatch as a separate run and hold it for review; don’t merge into the same listing.
Issue: inconsistent behavior across units
Inconsistency is usually a run management problem before it’s a functional problem. Separate cartons, document cues, and publish instructions per run. If your instructions include QR endpoints, apply general QR safety hygiene: FTC advisory, plus a quick operational checklist from NCSC (PDF).
How to publish “instructions” without catalog chaos
1) Make your instruction block run-specific
- Headline: “Controls (run-verified)”
- Body: 3–5 bullet lines max (power, switch, mode), only what you verified
- Evidence: 1–3 screenshots/photos saved in your run record
2) Use consistent words (don’t rename states)
If a readout displays “A/B” (or a symbol), keep that exact label in listings and support replies. Renaming states in marketing copy is a common reason buyers claim “it doesn’t work.”
3) Keep traceability lightweight but real
Even a simple traceability posture (consistent identifiers + consistent run records) reduces disputes. For a high-level framework, see NIST IR 8536 (PDF) and the GS1 traceability hub.
Optional: packaging and labeling references (jurisdiction-dependent)

FAQ
Is this tutorial about contents or filling?
No. It is empty only and focuses on run identification, basic control operation for verification, and listing hygiene.
Do all runs use the same tap/click logic?
No. That’s why this page emphasizes run cues, receiving records, and publishing instructions per run after validation. If two cartons behave differently, treat them as separate runs until proven equivalent.
What’s the single most important best practice?
Write (and support) only what you can prove: photos, screenshots, and consistent run notes. That’s what reduces disputes and returns.
Where should I route “Choices Lab” traffic on my site?
Use one hub as the first stop (series overview), then branch by run type (screen vs non-screen) and by capacity bucket. That keeps your internal linking clean and predictable.
