Vape Mods – Power, Performance and Personalisation

Vape mods are the engine room of your vape setup. They house the battery, regulate output and give you control over everything from wattage to temperature, helping you tailor your vape to your exact preferences. Whether you’re chasing clouds, fine-tuning flavour or upgrading your setup, choosing the right mod is a key part of the journey.

Mods come in a wide range of designs and capabilities. Some are compact and discreet, ideal for low-wattage vaping on the go. Others are high-powered beasts designed for sub-ohm performance and full flavour delivery. If you already have a tank you love, picking the right mod can unlock even better performance, longer battery life and a more satisfying vape.

Why Choose a Mod Over a Kit?

If you’re new to vaping, an all-in-one kit is usually the best place to start. Kits come pre-matched for compatibility, removing any guesswork. But as your vaping experience grows, many users choose to separate their tank and mod to access more customisation, replace a worn-out device or simply try something new.

• More control: Mods offer features like variable wattage, temperature control and memory modes.

• Increased longevity: Replace just the mod instead of the whole kit when the battery wears out.

• Greater flexibility: Pair your favourite tank with the ideal power source.

• Enhanced performance: Higher wattage mods support demanding coils and sub-ohm tanks.

The Benefits of Regulated Mods

Nearly all vape mods sold today are regulated, which means they contain built-in chipsets that control power output and offer essential safety protections. Regulated mods come with features such as:

• Short-circuit protection

• Low-resistance detection

• Overheat protection

• Adjustable power modes

Unregulated (mechanical) mods are available, but due to the lack of safety features and technical requirements, they’re only recommended for highly experienced vapers.

Power Modes Explained

Most modern mods support a variety of power modes to suit different vaping styles:

• Variable Wattage – Adjust wattage to fine-tune vapour production and flavour.

• Temperature Control (TC) – Prevent coil burnout and explore flavour differences at different temperatures (requires compatible coils).

• Bypass Mode – Delivers raw battery power for a direct, mechanical-style vape.

• Pulse Mode – Briefly boosts power at the start of each draw for faster ramp-up and a stronger inhale.

• Memory Mode – Saves your favourite power settings for quick switching between tanks or coil setups.

Battery Types – Built-In vs Removable

Mods are powered either by built-in batteries or removable ones, each with pros and cons.

• Built-in batteries are convenient, rechargeable via USB and perfect for beginners. However, the mod will need to be replaced once the battery reaches end of life.

• Removable batteries give you more control and flexibility, allowing you to swap batteries on the go and extend the lifespan of your device. They’re better suited to advanced users familiar with battery safety.

Matching Mods and Tanks

A good vape setup relies on harmony between mod and tank. Key factors to consider:

• Wattage compatibility – Make sure the mod can output the correct wattage for your tank’s coil. Sub-ohm coils (under 1.0Ω) typically require at least 40W.

• Tank diameter – A balanced look and stable fit depend on matching the diameter of mod and tank.

• Coil compatibility for TC – If you’re using Temperature Control mode, ensure your coil is made from Stainless Steel (SS), Nickel (Ni) or Titanium (Ti).
