Vaping has grown in popularity as an alternative to smoking cigarettes in recent years. Almost all e-cigarettes and vape pens are battery-powered (the batteries heat the liquid, turning it into vapor), so they must be fully charged to function effectively. You may charge your vape pen using the provided charger unit and USB cable or an external battery charger, depending on the brand and model you have.
Step 1: Check to see if your vape pen has a built-in or replaceable battery.
This information is usually included in the user manual or instruction booklet that came with your vape pen. Integrated batteries are often an elongated tube or cylinder that connects to the cartridge (or the portion that heats the e-liquid), whereas removable batteries are stored inside the pen’s housing.
- Most vape pens use “510-Thread” batteries, which have a universal design that allows them to work with a variety of cartridges.
- Your vape pen’s battery may be distinguished from the cartridge by colors, writing, or other markers.
Step 2: Using the provided USB cable, connect your vape pen to its charger.
To begin, plug the AC adaptor into a nearby socket. Then, connect the smaller end of the USB cable to the relevant port on your pen and the larger end to the adapter. To access the charging port, you may need to detach the battery from the cartridge, depending on the model you’re using.
- Always charge your vape pen with the charger and wire that came with it. Different units use different voltages, and too much power can cause your pen to overheat or explode.
- Never charge your vape pen alongside a laptop, phone, or other devices that could be damaged by a short or surge.
Step 3: Allow the battery to charge before proceeding fully.
Charging times for various batteries might range from one to four hours. When the indicator light turns green or starts blinking steadily, your battery is fully charged. When the battery reaches 100 percent on some models, the charging light will turn off.
- While your vape pen is charging, please keep it away from any surrounding combustible materials (such as blankets or upholstered furniture) to prevent the risk of fire caused by overheating.
- Remove your battery from the charger device once it is fully charged and screw it back onto the cartridge to resume vaping.
Step 4: Keep an eye out for the red light indicating that it’s time to recharge your battery.
A red light will show on the LED display when the battery in your vape pen has been depleted to a particular level. Remember that red indicates “halt.” Wait until your vape pen is fully charged before using it again.
- Using your vape pen with a low battery could result in shorts, battery death, or other issues.
- If the vape battery stops holding a charge or begins to deplete more quickly than usual, it’s time to replace it.
Warning: If your vape is wet or covered with e-liquid, don’t charge it. This raises the risk of arcing and short circuits in your device, potentially damaging your vaporizer or battery. Charge your battery in a cool (e.g., a cool car) or humid environment (e.g., outdoors in the rain).
Points You Should Consider Before Charging
A low-quality USB wall adapter can never be trusted; they are potentially harmful.
Avoid using a phone charger with a cable that is permanently connected to the wall adapter.
Also, if your gadget has a micro-USB or similar common plug, check sure you’re charging it with the manufacturer’s cable or another suitable cable. Some phone chargers have “fast charge” technology that may deliver up to 2A of power to the device they’re connected to, which your vape may not be able to manage.
Examine the specifications of the wire that came with your smartphone; if it can only transfer 500 mAh or 1A at a time, there’s definitely a reason. Do not exceed the charging restrictions set by the manufacturer.
Important tip: instead of utilizing one of your computer’s USB ports, use a converter, or “wall wart,” to plug your device straight into a power outlet. If your gadget or charging cable fails, the only thing you’ll lose is a $5 outlet adaptor rather than a computer, which will likely cost considerably more.
- Do not keep your vape charging for extended periods of time if it is not in use.
- Using a USB port on a laptop, PC, television, DVD player, audio, gaming console, or car charger
- Always keep an eye on a charging vape or a battery charger.
- Charge your vaporizer in a cool atmosphere, not a humid one.
- If your vape is wet or full of e-liquid, don’t charge it.
- If your vape gets too hot when charging, stop charging it.
Conclusion
For any vape with a detachable battery, we recommend using a dedicated battery charger since they feature the best-specialized protection circuits to prevent overcharging and charge your batteries in a way that ensures the longest overall lifespan.
Because of the exposed wires, never leave a charging disposable unattended, just like any other vaping equipment. Even if the overall arrangement is small, children and pets may be hurt if they touch it or consume the small pieces. It would help if you also were informed that all e-juices and e-liquids are harmful.
