What is Vaping?

 Slang for "vaporising,""vaping" refers to the act of inhaling vapour produced by commercially produced liquid (also known as "e-liquid,""vape juice," or "e-juice") while using a vaporizer accessory or a vape.

 A vaporizer is a portable device that you can carry with you wherever you go. It can fit in your pocket. Depending on the vaper's preferences, it comes in a variety of shapes, styles, sizes, and even colours.

Basic Vape Components

 There are four main components to a vaporizer or vape:

• a tank (cartridge)

• a power source (heater)’

• a battery

• a detector

The component that stores (holds) the vaping liquid is called the tank.

 The true magic happens inside the vape atomizer, a tiny heating element. Clearomizers, cartomizers, and other types of atomizers come in many shapes, and each one differs in how it makes touch with the e-liquid. Regardless, the heating function and principle are the same for all atomizers. Vape juice, also known as e-juice or e-liquid, is sometimes mistaken for the smoke produced by a vape device. However, an e-juice is the substance that really creates the vapour that vapers inhale while engaging in vaping activity. The e-juice is fed via an atomizer, which is essentially a heating element, to produce the vapour. The atomizer may be heated up using the electricity from the battery.

 The sensor serves as the vape's brain, giving the battery instructions to charge the atomizer and heat the e-liquid.

 Despite the fact that there are many different reasons why individuals vape, the majority of them do so in an effort to quit smoking.

 It can be difficult to choose the right accessory for you when there are hundreds of different vapes and vaping devices on the market right now.

Different Vape Types
There are several types of vapes for various vaping chemicals, but there are also various vape styles for the same substance. See if you can spot any particular designs or styles in the list below! You can vape wax, dry herbs, or oils with some vaporizers.

Oil vapes
The earliest type of vaporizer is an oil vape, often known as an e-liquid vape. Although there are nicotine-free e-liquids available, the majority of oils vapes are made to use e-liquids that have been infused with nicotine. THC and CBD oils are also available for oil vapes.

 Direct-to-Lung (DTL) and Mouth-to-Lung (MTL) Vapes
You can find options for oil vapes that are frequently referred to as DTL or MTL designs. This indicates that the gadget was created with just one or two possibilities in mind. DTL designates that the user may continuously inhale vapour from the device into their lungs (so it goes straight to your mouth).

 The user of MTL vapes is supposed to suck vapour into their mouth, hold it there, and then inhale it. Large-capacity atomizers made for e-liquid vaping frequently use DTL designs since it's much simpler to produce enormous plumes of vapour. MTL designs are typically seen with equipment made for oils with greater viscosity, such as CBD or THC oils.

Dry Herb Vapes
Convection or conduction are the two standard designs for dry herb vapes. Conduction vapes evaporate dried herbs by coming into direct touch with a heating element. Unfortunately, this causes uneven heating, so you'll need to stir your dry herb occasionally as you vape unless you want to get a mouthful of ash. Convection vapes bake your dried herb with extremely hot air to produce the vapour you can inhale. Similar to how convection ovens operate, convection vapes transfer heat uniformly throughout the heating chamber. This is a great option if you want a higher-end vaping experience, wish to target particular terpenes or cannabinoids, or both.

Wax Vapes
Wax vapes will have a wide range of features, but their primary purpose will remain the same. The wax will be put directly onto heating coils in a heating chamber. The resin is vaporised by the heating coils and then inhaled.

Cannabis and CBD Vapes
Cannabis and CBD vapes are getting more and more popular as cannabis becomes more widely accepted and legalised worldwide. There are many different ways to consume your favourite cannabis products, from straightforward and affordable options to robust, high-end devices with full feature sets.

Different Vape Devices
Vapers come in a wide variety and are all at different points in their vaping journeys. Because vapers frequently experiment with various devices and personalise their experiences over time to suit them, we refer to this journey as such. It's extremely uncommon for someone to choose a device and a single flavour of liquid at first and stick with it rigidly. If that's the case, you might be passing up a vaping experience that would be more enjoyable for you. Vape pens, pods, and mods are just a few of the many options available for various sorts of vapes.

There are two primary categories of vapes, which is the first thing to comprehend about various vapes.

1. Nicotine vapes: portable lithium-ion battery-operated devices intended to simulate the sensation of smoking without burning. Options for nicotine content range from 0% to 5%, and flavours include sweets, tobacco, and unflavored.

2. Cannabis/CBD vapes: bigger desktop or portable devices with batteries or electrical power sources that heat the substance. These gadgets can be used with concentrates or dry herbs, as well as with THC, CBD, or other botanicals.

 Nicotine vapes
While "e-cigarettes" can refer to any nicotine vape, the phrase is most frequently used to describe little gadgets with a cigarette-like appearance. But nicotine vapes go further than that.

 E-cigarettes
You'll only find smaller, more basic vapes like this. They are available for use right away after opening the pack. You throw away the device after using it and replace it with another. These are the perfect gadgets for travelling or for those of us who lead busy lives and don't have time to fiddle with little devices. E-cigarettes are fantastic for quitting smoking because they quickly introduce users to vaping and deliver a pleasurable hit when the nicotine level is high.

 Pod vapes
Pod vapes are among the most useful vaping gadgets on the market. Similar to an e-cigarette, a pod vape typically consists of two parts: a battery and a changeable, frequently refillable pod. Pod vapes typically perform better than the majority of conventional e-cigarettes while still being incredibly economical and simple to use. They are a very effective vape for nicotine delivery because they also work perfectly with nicotine salt e-liquid.

Box mods
Larger and more powerful vapes are box mod kits. Better performance and a longer battery life are typically associated with size increases, especially when it comes to external vape batteries. The majority of box mods have features and settings like variable wattage or even temperature control. Direct lung sub ohm tanks or mouth to lung clearomizers are available as the included tanks.
A single-battery mod with variable wattage and temperature control features paired with a mid-range sub ohm tank is the most typical setup for a box mod starting kit.

Regulated squonk starter kits
These vapes are the most sophisticated on this list. Although squonk setups are technically a subcategory of starting kits for box mods, they have grown in popularity enough over the past few years to merit their own category. Squonkers offer a useful way to add e-liquid to your atomizer. A regulated squonk setup is often composed of a bottom-fed RDA and a box mod with squonk functionality. The mod contains a bottle that can be squeezed and is basically used as an external tank section because it is connected to the atomizer deck by a shallow 510.
A single battery squonk mod will be around the same size as a dual-battery box mod due to the bottle taking up the space where a battery would have been placed. Due to this, single battery squonk kits are the norm, but dual battery squonk kits are also available for individuals who don't mind the added bulk.

 Cannabis and CBD vapes
They come in a variety of shapes and sizes. Cannabis and CBD vapes are widely available, much like smoking accessories including bongs, bubblers, bowls, and dab rigs. However, when it comes down to it, desktops and portables are the two main categories. Desktops must be parked at your session station, while portables might be compact or hardly pocketable.
Desktop vaporizers are usually the most effective choice for dry herb and wax, but if you're on the go, there are reliable portable and pen-style vaporizers that offer vaporisation with all the advantages of the substance and none of the issues of smoke, either offensive odours or detrimental health effects from inhaling smoke.

 CBD vape pens
Any kind of vape pen that can hold CBD e-juice is a refillable CBD vape pen. It often features a tank that connects to a battery with a 510 thread for charging. They offer a straightforward, practical pen-style form factor and are typically more compact and lighter than the typical mod and tank set-up. Some of them offer a tight mouth to lung draw, while others are appropriate for direct-lung vaping.

 Weed and THC oil pens
A THC oil pen, often known as a marijuana pen or weed pen, is a two-part electrical device that is used to vaporise THC/CBD oil or distillate. Weed vape pens, a development of early vape pens, are frequently designed like writing pens, hence the name. Each marijuana pen has a little battery inside that heats the oil inside an atomizer cartridge that also has a wick and a heating coil. Concentrates become vapour as a result of this heating process.

 THC oil was previously solely sold in cannabis dispensaries, but delta 8 carts are now becoming more and more well-liked. They have the same energising effects on the body and mind as THC, but come from hemp rather than marijuana. This implies that a larger group of people who didn't previously have access to cannabis goods can now more easily obtain them.

 Portable cannabis vaporizers
Portable dry herb vaporizers are discreet, hand-held gadgets used to vape marijuana or accepted high-CBD strains. They have an inbuilt oven that precisely heats cannabis to create vapour.

 Desktop vaporizers
These early vaporizers fall under this group. The engine of all vapes is this particular gadget. They most frequently use convection heating, or hot air, to thoroughly and effectively extract all the cannabinoids from the flower, including THC and CBD. Desktops can be the most potent vapes, but they can also be adjusted to the user's preferred temperature. The self-contained heaters in these vapes toast dry marijuana at predetermined temperatures to create vapour. The vapour is subsequently breathed through a whip-shaped tube or with the typical vaporizer bags made popular by the Storz and Bickel Volcano, the most well-known vape.
