510 Battery Information
Whether you’re new to vaping or have been for a while, it’s no surprise that the battery you choose for your vape is very important. When it comes to buying vape pen batteries online, the 510 thread battery is considered standard across the industry.
What does 510 thread mean?
For those who are unfamiliar with the term 510 thread battery, the name essentially refers to the specific thread design and what kind of cartridges the battery will be compatible with.
As stated previously, 510 batteries for sale are the most common type and fit most cartridges. Many people agree that it is the best vape battery available.
The 510 thread battery name derives from the 10 different 0.5-millimeter threads that are featured on the comparable vape pen tanks. Thus, the five-ten battery was born.
Even though it’s an industry standard to have the 0.5-millimeter threading, a tank doesn’t need to have 10 different threads to fit with a 510 battery.
What is a 510 thread battery?
A 510 thread battery is one that has the 510 threading. Simply put, it means that the battery’s female connection of the battery is compatible with a wide variety of cartridges because most use the male 510 connection. It is made for 510 thread oil cartridges.
Some larger pods and any 210 thread batteries or cartridges will not be compatible with a 510 thread.
Outside of the fact that it is the most commonly used battery, there are other advantages of using it. Usually, the battery life in a 510 thread is longer than other batteries, and because of its small, compact design, they offer more discretion. Some of the more modern versions are even built with advanced LCD and LED technology.
Another reason 510 thread vape batteries are so popular is because of their portability. Being lightweight and small, they’re easy to carry around.
Battery voltages explained
When it comes to finding the best vape battery, it’s important to consider the kind of voltages each type of battery has.
The word “voltage” refers to the electric potential differences (or difference in the battery’s “charge”) between the positive and negative battery terminals. If there is a greater difference between the terminals, there will be a greater voltage — and the bigger the vape cloud.
When it comes to a 510 battery, the voltage typically ranges from 3.3 to 4.8, while a very basic vape pen battery will only have a voltage of 3.3.
Some of the newer batteries will include a voltage that’s adjustable just like the temperature is on some vape pens. However, 510 thread batteries usually do not have this function.
Choosing the amount of voltage you want in your battery boils down to matching it to whatever kind of cartridge you’re using. You want to choose the lowest effective voltage that will still make your cartridge heat up. Doing so will give your vape the best taste and quality.
510 thread battery capacity (MAH)
Another factor to consider when browsing 510 thread batteries for sale is the battery capacity or its mAh rating.
An abbreviation for milliampere-hour, the mAh rating refers to how long your battery life will last and keep its charge. As you could have probably guessed, the higher a battery’s mAh rating, the longer it will stay alive.
When it comes to purchasing batteries specifically for vape pens, you want to stay in the mAh range of 280 to 900. It’s pretty standard for a 280mAh battery to last an entire day. Keep in mind that choosing a battery with a larger mAh will mean that the size of the battery will be bigger. But that’s necessary if you plan on choosing a battery with a higher voltage so you can vape at a higher temperature.
It all comes down to personal preference, but as long as you stay around 300 mAh your battery should last you all day.
Vessel battery charging vs most batteries
Now that you know all the ins and outs of choosing a vape pen battery, it’s time to turn the focus to charging it. Choosing a charger for your battery is important to keep it functioning properly.
Using a Vessel battery magnetic USB charging cable is one of the most effective ways to get the most usage out of your vape. Its built-in rechargeable lithium-ion battery with 240mAh will keep your battery fully working for about 1-2 weeks for moderate users. It also comes with three LED lights that indicate both the battery life and power settings.
Plus, it’s simple to use. When you’re running low or are out of power, simply plug in the cable to the power block and let your battery charge. It will blink until it has reached a full charge.
At this time, Vessel’s batteries are not approved to be charged in a vehicle. It’s also important to keep the cable away from metal objects (because of the magnetic connection point) and to unplug it when it’s not in use.
Why is Vessel the best 510 thread battery for cartridges?
When it comes to finding the best 510 thread battery for cartridges, Vessel’s magnetic charging port can’t be beaten.
While most vape pens require that you remove the cartridge to charge it, Vessel’s vape pens allow you to simply plug it in. Plus, every pen comes with a protective module that will both guard your 510-thread cartridge against damage and hide the oil from public view to maintain discretion when vaping.
And because the battery is set at 240mAh — with options for 2.8, 3.2 and 3.6 voltage — Vessel vape pens give your chosen oil the best taste. Lower power settings help preserve those terpene profiles that deliver only the most optimal sensations.
Add that to the fact that every Vessel vape pen comes with Smart Power Management Technology that automatically shuts down your vape after 15 minutes of inactivity (and cuts off charging once the battery life is full) and it’s no wonder it has the best 510 thread battery for cartridges.
510 batteries FAQs
What do you need to know before purchasing a 510 thread count battery?
When you’re purchasing a 510 thread count battery, it’s important to look for specifications like the voltage and battery capacity (or mAh). Also check to see if it comes with a charger, if it is compatible with most cartridges and if there are any extra features like a key fob or automatic shut-off.
How long does a vape pen charge last?
How long a vape pen’s battery life will last really depends on how often you use it. If you’re a moderate or casual vaper, a quality battery will last up to two weeks. If you are a heavy vaper, however, it might only last one day.
How to keep your vape pen battery clean?
Regularly cleaning your vape pen battery is an easy way to ensure its lifespan and efficiency. A leaky tank can result in sticky vape residue clogging your battery connection and keeping it from performing properly. If dirt or grime gets trapped in the connection, the charger won’t be able to recharge. Luckily, cleaning a vape pen battery is very simple. Just wet a q-tip or cotton swab with a little water or rubbing alcohol and wipe the area around the connection clean. Also, make sure to check any air holes for build-up.
What kind of vape pen battery charger is the best?
When it comes to vape pen battery chargers, Vessel is by far the best. With an automatic shut off feature that prevents overcharging and a built-in battery that you’ll never lose, it’s easy to see why Vessel continues to be regarded as a producer of top-quality vaping devices.
