Advanced Vape Mods

What Features Define an Advanced Vape Mod?

Advanced vape mods typically offer features like high wattage (100W+), temperature control, customisable power curves, and compatibility with rebuildable atomisers (RBAs). These mods often allow fine-tuning of settings and are suitable for cloud chasing, flavour enhancement, and precision vaping, appealing to experienced users who want full control over their vaping experience.

What’s the Difference Between Regulated and Unregulated (Mechanical) Advanced Mods?

Regulated mods have built-in safety features, adjustable settings, and often come with digital displays for user control. Unregulated (mechanical) mods lack these protections, delivering power directly from the battery to the coil. Mechanical mods require a solid understanding of battery safety and Ohm’s Law, as they have no circuit protections to prevent potential issues like short circuits.

What Type of Batteries Should I Use for an Advanced Vape Mod?

Advanced vape mods often use external high-drain batteries, such as 18650, 20700, or 21700 cells, especially for high wattage output. For dual- or triple-battery mods, always use matched sets (same brand, capacity, and age) and ensure they meet the amp requirements of your preferred power settings to ensure both safety and performance.

How Do I Build Coils for Use with an Advanced Mod?

Many advanced vapers build their own coils to customise resistance and surface area for optimal flavour and vapour production. Coil-building requires knowledge of Ohm’s Law, as well as materials like Kanthal, stainless steel, or nickel wire. A coil-building kit and an ohm reader are essential tools for measuring coil resistance and ensuring builds are safe.

How Do I Maintain an Advanced Vape Mod?

Regular maintenance includes cleaning the device and tank, updating firmware if available, checking battery wraps, and replacing coils or rebuilding when necessary. If using a mechanical mod, it’s crucial to clean the mod’s contacts regularly to ensure a steady power flow. Proper care extends the lifespan of the device and helps maintain peak performance.
