Comparison Voopoo Vinci Mod Pod vs Voopoo Drag Nano Pod Kit

The volume of the liquid tank provided in the design of the atomizer. Note that this parameter can be specified even for squonk atomizers (see "Filling type"): although they work with an external tank, however, a certain amount of "liquid" can fit in the evaporator itself.

The larger the tank, the more liquid you can keep in an electronic cigarette and the less often you have to refill it. On the other hand, capacious tanks have the appropriate dimensions, and too large a tank would be inconvenient, and liquids are consumed relatively little even in one long session of soaring. As a result, a volume of more than 6 mL is already considered quite large for vapes, and in the smallest models this figure does not exceed 2 mL.

Also note that when choosing a tank capacity, manufacturers usually take into account the resistance of the spiral, the power of the battery (if it is included) and other parameters that affect the expected flow rate of the liquid. There is no hard dependency here, however, in general, more powerful atomizers are usually equipped with larger tanks.

Systems that are activated and give steam not with a button, but at the moment of puffing. This solution makes it easier to smoke, since it is not necessary to constantly hold the button. Plus , activation on a puff eliminates the likelihood of accidental pressing when carried in a pocket, bag, etc.

The smallest resistance of the heating coil of an electronic cigarette.

The meaning of this parameter will be different, depending on which part of the device is in question (see "Type"). So, for atomizers, this parameter is given if spare heaters are supplied in the kit — accordingly, it is indicated for the “head” with the lowest resistance. For a battery mod, this is the smallest resistance that can be connected to it. And in starter kits, the minimum resistance is also usually indicated by the battery mod; low-resistance "heads" in such cases may or may not be included in the delivery.

Anyway, data on the minimum resistance is important in the mutual selection of an atomizer and a battery mod (including when creating custom windings) — connecting an atomizer with too low resistance is fraught with overloads and various unpleasant consequences, up to fire. However, this parameter is of particular importance for lovers of the so-called subohm — soaring at a low heater resistance (up to 1 ohm), which allows you to achieve high steam saturation (when the resistance decreases, the power increases). Not all batteries are capable of working with sub-ohm heaters, so the suitability of a battery mod for such vaping needs to be clarified.

The highest resistance of the electronic cigarette heating coil.

The meaning of this parameter will be different, depending on which part of the device is in question (see "Type"). For an atomizer, this can be either the resistance of the complete heater, or, if there are several “heads” in the kit, the resistance of the highest-resistance replaceable coil. For a battery mod, the highest resistance is indicated at which the battery is able to deliver sufficient power for operation. For the starter set, the data is usually given according to the battery mode, while the resistance of the complete heater (heaters) may be lower than the maximum.

Data on the maximum and minimum (see above) resistance is necessary, first of all, to select an atomizer and a battery mod that are compatible with each other. The atomizer must fall within the operating range of the battery mod, otherwise the battery will either be overloaded (if the evaporator resistance is too low), or simply will not provide the desired degree of heating (if it is too high).

The battery capacity of an e-cigarette or separately sold battery mod. This parameter is indicated only for models with non-removable batteries (see "Battery type"): replaceable cells can be produced in different capacities.

The larger the battery, the longer you can use the device without recharging the battery. However the actual power consumption and, accordingly, the battery life of different models will be different, therefore, only devices with similar operating voltages and atomizer resistances can be compared in terms of capacity.

In general, if battery life is important to you, it is quite possible to proceed from the principle “the more capacious the battery, the better”; and to save money, you can choose a relatively weak battery. It is also worth mentioning that there are schemes for calculating the optimal battery capacity depending on the power, atomizer resistance, etc.; these schemes can be found in special sources.

The maximum power supplied by the battery.

This is one of the main parameters of the battery pack that determines its compatibility with the atomizer. Starter kits (see "Type"), by definition, include atomizers that are optimally suited to a given battery in terms of power, and this parameter is mainly of reference value. But when choosing components separately, you should pay special attention to it. Higher power allows you to achieve more saturated steam, but only up to certain limits — too much heating leads to a deterioration in taste, and even burning of the wick (which, all the more, does not contribute to improving the sensation of soaring). So the atomizer must normally transfer the power of the battery, otherwise, at best, you will have to constantly limit the power with the help of a varivolt or variwatt (see "Battery mod"), and at worst, normal use will be impossible at all.

Note that for classic evaporator tanks with one spiral, power up to 40 W is considered sufficient; more powerful batteries are designed mainly for advanced serviced models, drip atomizers and bacodrips(see "Type of atomizer") that have more than one coil and, accordingly, are more high consumption in terms of energy consumption. Also note that the actual heating power depends on the voltage, and in fact it may be lower than the claimed one, depending on the resistance of the atomizer. See “Maximum voltage".

The presence of a display in the design of an electronic cigarette — more precisely, a battery mod (see "Type"): putting a display on an atomizer does not make sense for a number of reasons, in particular, because there is not enough space there. But on the battery pack, even a small one, it is quite possible to place a screen. Usually this is the simplest monochrome matrix (black and white or in another colour, say, white characters on a blue background), capable of displaying data in one, at most two lines. However, even with such equipment, control becomes more convenient and intuitive: a variety of digital and textual data can be displayed on the screen, for example, the set voltage or power value, operating mode (variatt / varivolt, if both are supported), battery charge, start message and the end of charging, failure notifications, etc. And some models may even provide advanced touch displays (see below)

The material from which the flask of the complete atomizer is made. Most often, it means the material from which the transparent insert in the body (usually steel) is made, with the exception of all-steel flasks, see below for more details about them.

— Glass. The most popular flask material in modern vapes. The glass does more than just allow you to see the contents of the flask — this transparency is maintained for a long time, as the glass surface is highly resistant to scratches. In addition, the walls of the flask are chemically inert, they do not react with the "slurry", whatever its composition; and the fragility of the walls is compensated by their thickness, and sometimes by special additives in the composition of the glass. This material is somewhat more expensive than plastic, but in fact this difference is insignificant.

— Plastic. Plastic flasks, like glass, are usually made transparent, which allows you to monitor the amount of liquid; at the same time, they are much cheaper, it is very difficult to break such a container, and fragments from plastic are not as dangerous as glass ones. At the same time, this material is easily covered with scratches and quickly becomes cloudy during use. In addition, some types of plastic (especially inexpensive ones) can react with substances that make up e-liquids (manufacturers of both flasks and refills try to avoid this phenomenon, but...a full guarantee cannot be given). As a result, this option is not particularly popular, it is typical mainly for low-cost devices created with the expectation of maximum cost reduction.

— Stainless steel. Stainless steel flasks are notable primarily for their high strength — even under a very strong load, the steel tank is more likely to flatten than crack. Yes, and resistance to corrosion can also be written down as advantages. At the same time, this material has a critical drawback that negates all its advantages — it is opaque. As a result, it is possible to monitor the liquid level in such a flask only by indirect signs — for example, by changing the taste or the amount of steam. This, to put it mildly, is inconvenient, so steel flasks are used extremely rarely — and not so much for practical reasons, but as an element of unusual design.
