If you are vaper you definitely know about the importance of battery in your vape. Battery is one of the main parts of an electronic cigarette. Usually e-cigarettes use larger and more powerful lithium-ion batteries. Removable as well as in-built batteries are there with vape kits. Many of us handle vape battery without any care. But we need to take care of lithium-ion batteries because safety is the very important thing among all.
Choosing the right battery is the first precaution for safe vaping. Advanced vaporizers use the most popular 18560 batteries. Current rating and mAh ratings on a battery are the most important factors. If you would like to vape at high wattages then select battery with high current rating. Else if you are looking for longer vapes, better choice is battery with high mAh rating and lower amp rating. And battery will last with the high mAh rating. As well as, in the case of amp rating of batteries, use continuous amp rating rather than pulse rating. Thus the type of battery you choose depends on mAh and amp rating. However, you need to understand everything before buying loose batteries. Just research and check product reviews.
Another important thing is never push limits of your batteries because at one or two time you may not get any problem. But it’s risk so just start with safe and simple moves. Venting and thermal runaway are another two issues with batteries. Venting means battery sprays liquids and toxic fumes when it reaches extremely high temp. or shorted out. Exploding of batteries due to hard-short circuit is called thermal runaway. So keep loose li-ion batteries at safer place.
Another factor is how to get long battery life especially in chilly winter months. For that, you need to avoid frequent recharging of battery because it reduces the battery life. Also don’t abuse the battery by overheating it and drawing high amps regularly. Better way to use your vape battery is charging it up to 3.7 volts. Recharge your battery only after it drops down below 3.4v. In winter weather the output of batteries is altered by extreme temperatures. For this reason, keep your batteries and hardware around room temperature if you can help it.
Take care of your vaping equipment including batteries for safe vaping especially in these winter days and stay warm!
