Q: What does mAh mean on a vape battery?
mAh stands for milliampere-hour, a measure of battery capacity. Simply put, the higher the mAh, the more charge the battery holds, which means longer use between charges. For a casual user, 300-500 mAh is plenty; if you vape frequently all day, you'll want 650 mAh or more.
Q: Is a higher wattage always better?
Not necessarily. Wattage is about power output, not battery life. Higher wattage gives bigger vapor and more intense flavor, but it drains the battery faster. For CBD-compatible hardware, a moderate wattage (around 10-20W) is usually enough for a satisfying experience without killing your battery too quickly.
Q: Can I use any USB charger with my vape?
It's best to use the charger that comes with your device or one that matches the recommended specs (usually 5V/1A or 5V/2A). Using a high-wattage charger (like a laptop charger) can stress the battery and shorten its lifespan. Always check the manual—when in doubt, slow and steady wins the race.
Q: What safety certifications should I look for?
Look for CE, RoHS, and FCC marks. These indicate the device meets EU and US standards for electrical safety, hazardous substances, and electromagnetic interference. Also check for built-in protections: overcharge, over-discharge, short-circuit, and overheat protection. These are non-negotiable for safe use.
