What is a Vape Mod?

Vape mods are an advanced evolution of vape kits that are primarily used for a Direct-to-Lung (DTL) experience. These are larger and powerful devices (also known as sub-ohm or advanced kits) that support more vaping sessions and higher power outputs. Like the other starter and pod kits, they also have atomisers, coils, mouthpieces, and batteries (known as mods). Examples include: SMOK R-Kiss 200W Kit, GeekVape Aegis X 200W Kit, and Voopoo Drag 5 80W Vape Kit.

What Type of Batteries Do Vape Mods Support?

Mod vapes support two different types of batteries: Internal and external mods. Internal mods are built into the device and cannot be removed by the user. You may need to replace the entire device when the battery is fully drained.

On the other hand, external batteries can be removed from the vape mod kit for charging or replacement. They are found in more advanced vape kits and box mods. These offer greater flexibility as you can carry spares and swap them out. When buying new external batteries, you need to consider the following points:

  • MAh (Milliamp-hour): This indicates the battery's capacity, or how much energy it can store. A higher mAh rating means a longer battery life between charges.
  • Battery Sizes: The external vape batteries for box mod vapes come in different sizes: 18650 (offers a good balance between capacity and power output), 20700 & 21700 (offers more capacity and better battery life).
  • Battery Material: Most vape box mods are Lithium-Ion (Li-ion). Within Li-ion, common types for vaping include: IMR (Lithium Manganese / Li-Mn, INR (Lithium Nickel Manganese Cobalt / Li-NMC), and ICR (Lithium Cobalt / Li-Co).

How to Ensure the Battery Safety of Your Mod Vape?

Vaping mods’ batteries are sensitive, and if not handled properly, they may pose certain risks. Follow these safety precautions when dealing with mods:

  • Use a compatible Charger: Avoid using damaged cables or generic phone chargers, as they may have different voltage and amperage requirements.
  • Charge Safely: Charge on a flat surface. Don’t wait for the battery to fully drain; instead, charge it when it reaches around 20-30%.
  • Proper Storage: If you’re using external batteries, always ensure to keep them in safe places or in specialised storage bags. It’s also important to store them away from direct heat and other harmful exposures.
  • Dispose Responsibly: Remember, mods are made of lithium-ion batteries. These can release harmful chemicals into the environment when carelessly disposed of. Hence, dispose of them in designated disposal points where they can be easily accessed for recycling.

How to Choose a Vape Mod?

Vape mods have sub-ohm coils that are ideal for a DTL experience. No matter if you're new to vaping or an old pro, choosing the vape mods for throat hits isn’t the right option. Always remember, they offer more vapours that are perfect for cloud chasers. Along with that, you also need to consider the following factors when choosing a box mod:
  • Consider your experience level: If you’re a beginner, look for simple, user-friendly devices with clear displays and built-in safety features. Experienced users can choose kits with advanced features like temperature control and customisable settings.
  • Think about battery life: Built-in batteries are convenient, but they can wear out over time. External batteries can be swapped and often last longer with proper care. Consider how often you vape each day and choose accordingly.
  • Consider size and portability: If you need something pocket-friendly, go for smaller, lighter vape mods. If performance and battery life are more important, a larger mod might be worth the extra bulk.
  • Look at wattages: If you want more vapours, choose a high-wattage vape mod. For medium vapour production, we recommend choosing moderate wattages (usually between 40 and 80 watts).

Frequently Asked Questions For Vape Mods

What is the best vape mod?

The best vape mod depends on every vaper's personal preferences. For example, if you’d like to create your own liquid, then choosing a refillable vape mod kit (like the Voopoo Argus GT II 200W Kit) is a nice option. This mod box allows you to refill it with a fluid of your choice without having to replace the tank. However, if you want a basic experience with minimal personalisation, we’d recommend choosing pre-filled box mods or the refillable ones with basic features like the Voopoo Musket 120W Box Kit.

Are vape mods allowed on planes?

Yes, they are allowed on planes, but you must follow strict regulations. They are only permitted in your handbags and never in checked baggage. E-liquids (100ml maximum per container) should also be carried in your carry-on bags. It is strictly prohibited to use or charge your vape mod on an aeroplane.

What’s the difference between a mod and a standard vape pen?

A standard vape pen is simpler, more compact, and designed for ease of use. They’re great for beginners or those who like mouth-to-lung (MTL) experience. A vape mod, on the other hand, is larger, more powerful, and offers extensive customisation. Mods feature variable wattage, temperature control, advanced screens, and often use external, replaceable batteries.

Can I build my own coils for a vape mod?

Yes, Vape mods are compatible with rebuildable atomisers of all types, i.e., RDAs (Rebuildable Dripping Atomisers), RTAs (Rebuildable Tank Atomisers), and RDTAs (Rebuildable Dripping Tank Atomisers). You’ll need wire, coil jigs, pliers, and cotton to build your own coils. It’s a cost-saving option where the user can adjust the coil as per their preferences; however, it requires experience and technical knowledge, which is why RTAs, RDAs, and RTDAs are often recommended for advanced vapers only.

How long do vape mod batteries last?

The lifespan of your vape mod's batteries can be considered in two ways: how long a single charge lasts, and the overall lifespan of the battery itself. A single charge typically lasts a full day for moderate to heavy users, especially with dual-18650 setups or large internal capacities like 220mAh. As for the battery's overall lifespan, external 18650s are generally good for 300-500 charge cycles before their performance noticeably degrades. Internal batteries follow a similar principle.

What is Temperature Control (TC) vaping on a mod?

Temperature Control (TC) vaping is an advanced mode on many vape mods that allows you to set a maximum coil temperature. Instead of just setting wattage, you select a temperature (e.g., 200°C / 400°F) and the mod automatically adjusts power to maintain it. TC typically requires specific coil materials like Stainless Steel (SS), Nickel (Ni200), or Titanium (Ti); standard Kanthal coils aren't compatible.
