A vape battery (also called a vape pen battery or cartridge battery) is the power source that heats up the vape cartridge to create vapor. It’s the main part of most vape pens used for THC, CBD, or nicotine oil cartridges.
Here’s a simple breakdown:
- 🔋 Purpose: It supplies electricity to the heating element (coil) inside the cartridge, which vaporizes the oil.
- ⚙️ Connection: Most cartridges screw into the battery using a 510-thread connection — the universal size used by most brands.
- 💡 Activation types:
- Button-activated: You press a button to heat and inhale.
- Draw-activated: It turns on automatically when you take a puff.
- 🔌 Charging: Most charge via USB-C or micro-USB, though some have magnetic chargers.
- 🔥 Voltage settings: Some batteries let you adjust the voltage (or temperature), which changes vapor thickness and flavor.
