Although e-cigarette devices are more and more popular, there are still many people didn't know basic vape device knowledge. And here are some common faqs to help you solve your confusion. Let's check and know more!

Q1: Can a vape explode?

Yes, some low-quality vapes that didn't reach the safety standard may explore. But, to be honest, most e-cigarette batteries are below 1,000 mAh. To make a comparison, mobile phone batteries and power banks are above 5,000+ mAh. The explosion probability of electronic cigarettes with lower mAh and short-circuit protection is extremely low.

Q2: What is the essential difference between the small vape and the large vape?

They are both composed of a vape pod cartridge part and a battery part. The biggest difference is in appearance, power output, coil resistance, and e-liquid choices.

Q3: How does the battery switch (main switch) work?

The battery switch has an airflow-sensing device design. The airflow triggers a current to drive the e-cigarette.

Q4: What is the effect of e-cigarette draw resistance on taste?

The greater draw resistance comes with less air intake will get a richer vape flavor taste and stronger sensation in the throat. But too strong draw resistance will lead to insufficient air intake and unsmooth use. Too low will result in over large air intake that disperses the smoke and empties the taste.

Q5: Is the vape device held accountable for e-liquid leakage?

The answer is affirmative. If the vape device has defective in design, it will cause e-liquid leakage. For example, lacks air tightness of the pod due to the mismatch of the rubber plug, the deposition of condensate, excessive suction, or the wrong heating element design. These reasons all can cause oil leakage! Suorin team thinks highly of the vaping design and you don't worry about it.

Q6: What is the heating principle of e-cigarettes?

The microphone controls the device switch, the battery output generates current to start working. And the heating device generates heat to atomize the e-liquid to generate smoke. The main component of the vapor in the e-liquid is vegetable glycerin, which is basically harmless to the human body and can be absorbed.

Q7: What is the difference between cotton coil heating and ceramic coil?

The cotton coil is composed of cotton and a heating wire. The cotton conducts liquids quickly and has a larger storage capacity. But it is not resistant to dry burning. It is easy to burn the coil for improper use. The ceramic coil of ceramics and heating wire is smoother in conduction. Its oil storage capacity is not as good as the cotton coil, but it is resistant to dry burning. Therefore, it can support continuous suction and shines on long service life.

Q8: Why are most vape rods made of aluminum alloy?

Aluminum alloy and stainless steel are the most common materials, especially the former. Which is better? Stainless steel has strong hardness and good rigidity. It still maintains its excellent physical and mechanical properties at high temperatures. What's more, most stainless steel products require good gravity corrosion resistance. While aluminum alloy is widely used in industry. It is easy to process and characterized by high durability, wide application range, and relatively high strength. And it can be processed into various profiles with excellent electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity, and corrosion resistance. Heat treatment can give it good mechanical and physical properties and corrosion resistance. In conclusion, aluminum alloy stands out as it is relatively friendly in cost. And it is more mature and stable in processing techniques, compared with other metals.

Q9: Can the mobile phone cable be used to charge the vape device?

The charging output voltage of each mobile phone is different, there are 3.7V and 4.3V. And the output voltage of the vape devices may not match each other when charging. It is easy to shorten the vape battery life if long-term use. In other words, you are better to use chargers designed for your device as much as possible. And don't swap products or chargers, or use the original charger for another device. In case of necessity, please make sure the output voltage and current of the charger are suitable for your device, otherwise, it may cause damage to the device. It will be very dangerous.

Q10: How to connect the pod and vape body?

The e-cigarette device is generally connected by magnetic force. Making the contact closer and disassembly, and more convenient to assemble. If a straight metal wire passes through an electric current, a circular magnetic field will be generated in the space around the wire. The greater the current flowing in the wire, the stronger grows the magnetic field generated. The magnetic field in the form of a circle surrounds the wire. The magnetic field generated by the straight wire is similar to the effect of placing a circle of small magnets with NS poles connected end to end around the wire.

Q11: Why are there subtle differences in the first few puffs of e-cigarettes?

The ideal temperature for atomizing e-liquid is 200 degrees Celsius. It takes about 0.5-1 second to reach the temperature. At different temperatures, the atomization and resolution of e-liquid are different. Amid the gradual increase in temperature, the volatilized water will come out first. And the temperature of the vapor with a high moisture content will be slightly higher, resulting in slight differences in the first few puffs. You may take a light puff or two to discharge, and then inhale the real flavor taste from the spice itself.

Q12: Why do my vape devices fry the oil and get burn coil?

That may be caused by the wrong design of the heating coil. The defectively designed vape kit and the lack of air tightness of the pod due to the mismatch of the rubber plug also may lead to this problem. The burnt coil is mainly due to the e-liquid capacity. For example, your vape coil cotton didn't saturate when you vape, and your e-liquid runs out when you vape!

Q13: Why does my vape can't work when vaping?

In that case, you may check whether you had turned on the device first. Whether the vape body or the battery has battery power and the device has button-activated when inhaling. Second, check whether the coil resistance value is normal. 0.0Ω and 9.9Ω or less than 1.0Ω cartridge can be determined whether it is a cartridge problem. Given no abnormality, it may the pod body and the atomizer are abnormal. The pod and the electrode of the vape device are in poor contact, and the circuit breaks and cannot work.

Q14: Why is there condensation while vaping?

During the oil atomization, the vapor cannot be completely sucked, leaving a small quantity of vapor in the atomizer or pod. The vapor cools and condenses to form small water droplets, which accumulate into condensate. The cool principle is similar to that of distilled water. The condensate is not completely e-liquid, but mainly water and a small amount of e-liquid.

Q15: What are the criteria when Buying an e-cigarette?

You can select the relatively mature brands on the market as they are more mature in technology, better in after-sales service, and stand out for excellent completeness.
