Introduction
Vaping has become a popular alternative to smoking, with many people turning to e-cigarettes and other vaping devices as a way to quit smoking or reduce their exposure to harmful chemicals. However, like any electronic device, vaping devices require proper maintenance to function effectively and last a long time. In this blog post, we'll discuss some tips for users to practise good maintenance on their vaping devices.
How to maintain your device
One of the most important steps in maintaining your vaping device is to clean it regularly. This involves disassembling the device and cleaning each component separately. Use a soft cloth or cotton swab to wipe down the battery, tank, and other parts of the device. Be sure to remove any residual e-juice or debris that may have accumulated over time.
Another key aspect of vaping device maintenance is replacing the coils on a regular basis. Coils are responsible for heating up the e-juice and producing the vapour that you inhale. Over time, coils can become clogged with residue from the e-juice, reducing their effectiveness and causing the device to function poorly. Replace your coils every two to four weeks to ensure optimal performance.
The quality of the e-juice you use can have a significant impact on the performance and longevity of your vaping device. Low-quality e-juice can contain impurities that can clog your device and cause it to malfunction. Additionally, certain e-juice flavours can cause more residue build-up than others. Stick with high-quality, reputable brands, such as Ohm Boy and avoid flavours that are known to cause problems.
When not in use, it's important to store your vaping device properly to prevent damage and ensure it functions properly when you're ready to use it again. Store your device in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat sources, otherwise your device may start leaking. Avoid storing it in your pocket or purse, where it could be bumped or jostled.
Finally, it's important to charge your vaping device battery properly to avoid damaging it. If your device has a built-in battery, use the charging cable that came with your device, and avoid charging it for extended periods of time and make sure you are using the correct wall plug. Some wall plugs charge at a faster rate than others, but we recommend always charging your device using a USB wall plug which has no more than a 1amp output, unless specified otherwise by the manufacturer. Unplug your device as soon as it's fully charged, and never leave it charging unattended.
If your device uses external batteries, we recommend using an external battery charger. The reason why you should charge your external batteries separately is for safety, battery life and efficiency. It is a small investment that can make a big difference in your vaping experience and can help you save money in the long run by extending the lifespan of your batteries.
Conclusion
Maintaining your vaping device is an essential part of ensuring it functions properly and lasts a long time. Regular cleaning, coil replacement, high-quality e-juice, proper storage, and charging are all important aspects of good maintenance. By following these tips, you can keep your device in top condition and enjoy a satisfying vaping experience.
