How do e-cigarette manufacturers teach you to judge e-cigarette quality? In the current global trend of strict regulations, many e-cigarettes have appeared on the market, with varying qualities. Some manufacturers, in order to increase their income, do not hesitate to deceive consumers. Here are some tips for judging e-cigarette quality for distributors and consumers:

How to judge e-cigarette quality? Breaking the myth of battery charging and usage count:

Currently, e-cigarettes generally use lithium batteries. Lithium batteries are divided into A-grade or B-grade (of course, A-grade has better quality; the worst are those manufacturers using very poor C-grade batteries). E-cigarettes with an outer diameter of 8.5mm and a length of 96mm-102mm generally use 75400 or 75380 batteries.


Both batteries have similar capacities; A-grade batteries have a capacity of around 135mAh (135 milliamp hours, which is already the limit for lithium batteries). When the voltage drops to 3.2V, it can release 120mAh of power. According to the capacity and energy conservation law, 120/1000=0.12X3600=432 seconds. Assuming each puff takes 2 seconds, this battery can provide: 432/2=216 puffs. Using this calculation method, we can debunk the absurd claim of 250 puffs or more.


How to judge e-cigarette quality? Therefore, when purchasing e-cigarettes, be sure to clarify the battery capacity provided by the manufacturer and estimate the number of puffs based on this method. When buying e-cigarettes, you only need to ask three questions:

(1. What is the battery model and capacity?

(2. How long is the time for one puff?

(3. How long is the manufacturer calculating the number of puffs based on each puff?

How to judge e-cigarette quality? Atomizer quality.

To judge the quality of the atomizer, first look at the power. E-cigarettes are fundamentally based on the principle of heating and vaporizing. Therefore, check its power. The chip in e-cigarettes generally controls at 3.7V, and the heating wire typically uses nickel-cadmium heating wire of 0.1mm. Therefore, considering the power tolerance of the heating wire, the atomizer's resistance is generally around 3 ohms, making the optimal power for the atomizer about 4.5 watts.


If the power is too high, it can damage the chip or burn out the heating wire; if the power is too low, the vapor output will not be ideal. Some manufacturers pursue high power by increasing the current to 1.6 amps, which calculates the resistance to only 2.3 ohms, achieving a power of 5.88 watts. Such power can easily damage the atomizer, and the battery chip may also experience short circuit signals (lighting up for 3 seconds without producing vapor).


How to judge e-cigarette quality? The myth of atomizers lasting more than two years.

The typical lifespan of an atomizer is about six months. Some companies with inadequate technology produce products that can only last 2-3 months or even shorter. The reason for this is a technical issue that is inconvenient to disclose. Ningbo Yinzhou Sanying Electronic Technology Co., Ltd. has significantly improved the quality of atomizers, from high-quality components to structural innovations, achieving advanced technology levels that allow atomizers to be used continuously for over 15 months, successfully enhancing product quality and ensuring consumer rights.


How to judge e-cigarette quality? Breaking the myth of e-cigarette batteries (devices) lasting more than two years.

Typically, lithium batteries have a cycle charging count of 350-400 times. For a 135mAh battery, it needs to be charged at least twice a day, which means it can only last for 200 days (after 200 days, it doesn't mean the battery is dead, but after 400 cycles, it can only charge to about 80%). This is one reason; the second is that if there is a problem with the chip, the e-cigarette is generally considered a garbage product.


To test the quality of the battery (device) from a professional perspective, you can peel off the device, use one end of a tweezer to touch the red wire on the chip and the other end to touch the other two wires for 2 seconds. If sparks fly, check if the device can still work normally. If it does, the chip has short circuit protection; if it doesn't, directly return it to the manufacturer, as products made with such chips are garbage and may cause charging explosions or fires.
