Vape Care: How to Charge Your E-cigarette Device Properly

We believe it is vital to address what you should and shouldn't do in order to keep your vape battery safe, especially in light of recent horror tales concerning vape battery explosions that have been widely reported in the media.

You can't have all the fun as a vaper if you don't put your safety first. When it comes to knowledge, a little goes a long way. There's no need to be concerned; according to Battery University, exploding batteries are exceedingly rare (1 in 10 million), and the good news is that they're completely prevented.

This vaping article will go through everything you should and shouldn't do to ensure the safety of your vaping batteries. We'll begin by learning about the science underlying your battery.

The Vaping Battery
A vaporizer battery is similar to a battery that you use every day with your hands, put in your pocket, and bring up to your ear to make everyday communication. That's correct, the battery in your phone. Vape batteries are available in a variety of forms and sizes, with the majority consisting of lithium-ion chemistries, which deliver a tremendous amount of power and are also used in laptops, tablets, and medical equipment.

There is always the possibility of explosions or flames with any electric gadget and vapes are no exception. Vape batteries, on the other hand, vary from cell phone batteries in that cell phone batteries employ custom-made lithium ions that are created specially to meet the needs of the vaping device.

Because they aren't "factory certified," many vaporizer batteries perform a bit differently. Vapers are increasingly choosing their own vape batteries and customizing their devices in order to generate greater power and larger vape clouds. As a result, many vapers who do not have the necessary expertise are at risk. Explosions can also be caused by improper usage, low-cost items, and low-quality technologies.

The Do’s

·Invest in a high-quality vape - Investing in a high-quality vape decreases the chance of explosions, which are prevalent in low-cost goods.

·Do your homework before choosing the correct battery; if your vaporizer doesn't come with one, you'll need to purchase one separately. Because most standalone vape mods don't come with batteries, it's critical to invest in high-quality rechargeable 18650 batteries from respected companies.

·Invest in a good smart charger since overcharging or discharging batteries can cause explosions. A smart charger comes with more security measures than a standard charger.

·Carry your additional batteries - in a case rather to leaving them unsecured in your bag or pockets - it's critical to always carry your additional batteries in a case rather to leaving them free in your bag or pockets. When batteries come into contact with metal objects like coins or keys, they can cause a dangerous explosion because the connection can complete a circuit between the positive and negative poles.

·Be mindful of the weather - Extremely hot or cold conditions might harm your device's battery, perhaps resulting in an explosion. The best temperature for batteries is between 50- and 115-degrees Fahrenheit.

·Use the correct charging cable- Using a different cable to what your device came with can cause problems because the charger you are using may have a higher voltage than your battery which will cause your device to overheat.

The Don'ts

·Never use a battery that has been damaged - this is a recipe for disaster. If there appears to be a problem, the covering is broken or torn, or your battery is not holding a charge, securely expose the battery.

·Don't leave the battery charging alone - it's dangerous to leave your vape unattended while it's charging. The majority of well-made modifications have a cut-off point where they stop charging when they are full, although this function does not always work. Make sure to check your battery on a regular basis to avoid overcharging it, and never charge it while sleeping.

·Don't exceed your battery's amps - knowing Ohms Law is essential for battery safety. Never exceed this rating by dividing the discharge rate (amps) by your voltage level by coil resistance (ohms).

·Don't charge or rest your smartphone on flammable surfaces - Never charge or rest your smartphone on a cushion or combustible device and avoid direct sunlight. As a result, don't keep it in your car or on your windowsill for too long.

·Don't mix and match battery or charger sets - though many batteries and chargers appear to be the same, you should never mix and match these components since the voltage output may be different, causing your batteries to be damaged.

·Never over-discharge your battery - This is just as dangerous as overcharging your smartphone since it causes major damage to your battery and weakens it.
