Taking care of your mod and your battery

When we talk about your mod, we also talk about your battery. There are two different types of electronical mods: mods with an integrated battery and mods with a replaceable battery. What’s the difference between them? 

When we talk about your mod, we also talk about your battery. There are two different types of electronical mods: mods with an integrated battery and mods with a replaceable battery. What’s the difference between them?

Integrated batteries have a fixed lifetime, of around 300 charge – discharge cycles. Once the mod doesn’t hold the charge any longer, it’s better to throw it away. We strongly encourage you NOT to change your integrated battery.

For replaceable batteries, if you see the mod doesn’t hold the charge, all you need to do is buy a new battery. For mods that work with 2 or 3 batteries, it’s better to use the same batteries together. Once one of the batteries is dead and you want to change it, you’ll also have to replace the other ones. E-cigarette batteries are manufactured to last around 300 charge – discharge cycles. If you charge your e-cigarette daily, this amounts to around 10 months of use.

When we talk about battery change, we thus talk about replaceable batteries and not integrated ones.

 

Changing your battery – User guide

Your battery is obviously not going to last forever. The life expectancy of your battery will depend on your habits and use, but it’s very rare to have batteries that last less than 6 months. It’s quite easy to notice when your battery is dying. It doesn’t hold the charge anymore and doesn’t fully respond to your needs. If you’ve purchased a mod with replaceable batteries, you can compare the autonomy of your battery with another one. When one clearly holds longer than the other, it’s that you need to change it. If both batteries don’t charge correctly, you may have a charger problem.

Once you’ve decided to change your battery, pay attention to the screw thread and the compatibility of your new material. Take a battery that is compatible with your device and follow the guidelines.

 

Some advice to increase the life expectancy of your batteries

  • Don’t leave your batteries in the sun, in the heat or in humid places.
  • Avoid putting your batteries in your pocket with metallic objects.
  • Clean your e-cigarette regularly, including your battery and the connecting part between the battery and the clearomizer. Remove all dirt and humidity that could create contact failures and damage your battery.
  • Don’t wait for your battery do be completely discharged before charging it again. When it’s almost discharged, the effort required from the battery will be more important. This will use it prematurely and the battery will lose autonomy.
  • Avoid over-charging your battery, this might create an overwork and lower the life expectancy
  • If you’re not using your e-cigarette for a long time, unscrew the clearomizer from the battery to save some charge.
