What is an e-cigarette?
A vape (also called e-cigarette) is an electronic device that is designed to heat a liquid and turn it into a vapor that the consumer inhales. Therefore, consumption of electronic cigarettes is called “vaping”.
The electronic cigarette (vape or vapes) is intended as an alternative to reduce the harm from traditional tobacco cigarettes, providing consumers with a pleasurable sensation of smoking, but without carbon monoxide, tar, ammonia or all the other harmful and carcinogenic products from burning tobacco and paper.
Parts of a vape/e-cigarette
Technologically, the vape/e-cigarette consists of a rechargeable battery and a heating unit, called an atomizer. The latter has various components, such as a coil that is installed inside the liquid container or tank; inside the coil there is cotton that moisturizes it.
How do vapes/e-cigarettes work?
It’s important to know how a vape/electronic cigarette works to understand how easy it is to handle.

Cotton inside the coil carries the liquid from the tank to the resistor by capillary action.
The battery supplies the resistor with power.
This resistance heats up and evaporates the e-juice that soaks up the cotton.
The vapor produced goes into the mouthpiece of the device, which the consumer inhales, giving sensations similar to smoking, and can optionally provide nicotine in varying levels.
It is important to note that a vape/electronic cigarette does not burn but only vaporizes, compared to regular cigarettes, burning tobacco and releasing more than 4000 harmful chemicals.
Although most e-cigarettes were originally designed to resemble traditional tobacco cigarettes, the current trend is towards more convenient vapers with larger and more autonomous batteries, as well as larger atomizers with more features and that can hold larger amounts of e-liquid, so there’s an e-cigarette for everyone!
Which vape/electronic cigarette should I start with?
An e-cigarette replaces the need to smoke tobacco cigarettes and helps you reduce your nicotine intake. Many users are passionate about mixing their own e-juice with different flavor combinations, creating their own coils (vaporizers) and much more. So we invite you to step fearlessly into the world of vaping.

Depending on how you want to start steaming and the time you want to spend on it, we recommend you different strategies:
Beginners
These are kits that do not require a lot of knowledge about using electronic cigarettes and do not contain many loose parts or complicated spare parts.

Disposable electronic cigarettes are great because of their small size and because the puffs remind us a lot of the feeling of smoking, but today there is less demand for this type of e-cigarette.
Advanced
Many vapers often start vaping with e-cigarettes, mainly because they are cheap, discreet and easy to carry and use. The downside is that they usually don’t have much power – so the amount of vapor they generate is quite small – and their battery usually doesn’t have great autonomy.

There are also people who prefer to start with a more advanced mod, but it can be a bit overwhelming the amount of resistances, buttons and steaming modes available if you’re looking for the simplest steaming possible.

In a way, pods give you the best of both worlds. You can enjoy the benefits of a pointing device and the vapor you can get with a more powerful mod. As the name suggests, they use a cartridge (pod) instead of another type of tank or atomizer.
Expert
Advanced users’ electronic cigarettes have more features and are actually the type of electronic cigarettes we call MODs with the removable 18650 batteries. Advanced kits can be an option even for an inexperienced vaper, but they do require some knowledge, so we recommend making yourself well informed about these e-signatures or MODs.
