E-Cigarettes vs Vapes

Find out about the differences between e-cigarettes versus vapes, including how these devices work.

While they might have different meanings to an adult smoker, e-cigarettes and vapes are essentially the same thing. They are both devices that heat e-liquid to produce a vapour and offer adult smokers a smoke-free alternative to cigarettes. This process of heating an e-liquid is typically called vapourisation. Vapes come in a variety of types - from disposable and rechargeable devices to, larger tank devices and box or mod vapourisers.

The Basics of E-Cigarettes vs Vapes

In simple terms, vapes and e-cigarettes are electronic / battery operated devices that heat e-liquid to produce a vapour. Typically including a rechargeable or non-rechargeable lithium battery, vapes come with a tank, or with pre-filled “caps” or “pods” that are sold separately. Tank style vapes require e-liquid refills of an , which is heated by power from the battery. In wick and coil vapes, an atomizer powers up to heat the e-liquid. The e-liquid usually contains vegetable glycerin, propylene glycol, flavourings, nicotine, and other ingredients, to produce vapour.

Different Vape Styles

While e-cigarettes and vapes are essentially the same thing, there are different types of these devices such as vape mods, vape pens, pod systems, and cigalikes.

Another difference between vapes and e-cigarettes is the battery. The battery size typically depends on the type of device - and generally, the larger the battery, the longer the battery life. In larger mod style vapes, rechargeable batteries can be removed to carry out the charging process - or the battery can be replaced once it runs out. Some smaller, disposable pen style devices integrate the battery into the system- whether or not it’s rechargeable, depends on the exact brand and product.
