Choosing A Cartridge Battery Pen

Oil cartridges are more popular than ever, but a cartridge by itself cannot do much without a battery. In order to provide power to the cart’s coils, you need to find a reliable cartridge battery pen. These little batteries can vary widely and sometimes it can be difficult to know which battery to choose from when there are so many options available. If you are looking at 510 thread batteries for personal use or to offer in your vape shop, there are a few important factors to consider before making a purchase.

Battery Capacity

The capacity of the battery is one of the most important factors for many vape users. The capacity of a vape’s battery determines two things: it’s lifespan per charge and, indirectly, the size of the device. Battery capacity is determined in terms of milliampere hours or mAh. The higher the mAh of a battery, the longer you can enjoy oil vaping between having to recharge. The battery cell itself is also typically the largest component within the pen, so larger capacity devices will also be larger in terms of size. If you are looking for more compact cartridge pen options, you will have to sacrifice some battery life.

Firing Mechanism

The next thing to consider is the firing mechanism. Some of the most minimal vape designs will use draw activated circuitry so all you have to do is start inhaling and the battery will activate the coil. Other vapes will use a button to fire the vaporizer. Draw activated devices are a great option for users who want a simple device where all they have to do is attach their pre filled vape cartridges and start vaping. Button fired devices do have the ability to preheat your oil, so they can provide bigger hits. Button fired devices can also be turned on and off, which helps to conserve battery life.

Additional Features

Some cartridge battery pens will come with additional features, typically in the form of voltage settings or airflow control. Many of these more elaborate batteries will either be a larger pen style vape or they will have a slightly larger design that looks like a pod mod. Batteries that feature variable voltage settings can be used to dial in the vape experience by changing how much power goes to the coil and how much vapor is produced.
