The world of vape or e-cigarettes never stops evolving. For those of you who are new to switching from conventional cigarettes or who want to upgrade from small devices like pods, you've probably often heard the term "Mod".

Among vapers, mod devices are very popular because they offer features, power, and a much more superior vaping experience compared to beginner devices. But, what exactly is a vape mod? What types are there, and what is their current price range?

Come on, Vapeboss will discuss it all thoroughly in this article. Read until the end!

What is a Vape Mod?

The word "Mod" is actually an abbreviation for Modification. In its early days, vapers modified flashlights or battery tubes to produce vapor. That's where the name mod was born.

Simply put, a vape mod is an e-cigarette device designed to be more bulky (large) and have a much higher power output.

Mods allow users to customize their vaping experience, from increasing or decreasing wattage to adjusting the firing temperature. The vapor produced is much thicker (cloud chasing) and the flavor is more intense.

Types of Vape Mods

For those of you who want to try upgrading to a mod, you need to know the two main types currently on the market:

1. Electrical Box Mod (Most Recommended)

This is the most common and safest type of mod to use, both for those new to mods and for pros. As the name suggests, this mod is usually box-shaped and powered by 1 external battery (single battery mod) up to 2 external batteries (such as 18650 or 21700 types).

• Advantages: Equipped with a smart chip that regulates all safety systems (prevents short circuits or overheating). In addition, there are indicators and even a screen to see the remaining battery, the ohm of the coil, and adjust the wattage as desired.

2. Mechanical Mod (Only for Pros)

Often called "Mecha," this is a "naked" mod that has no safety chip, screen, or power regulator. Power from the battery is directly supplied roughly to the atomizer components through a physical mechanism (button press).

• Important Note: Mechanical mods are highly not recommended for beginners. Users must understand Ohm's Law and have in-depth knowledge of safe battery current limits to avoid the risk of explosion.

Mod Recommendations and Prices

Mod prices vary greatly, depending on the material, the chip used, and the brand. Here is an overview of prices and recommendations for your reference:

1. Hotcig R99 Mod (Single Battery Mod) – Rp 390,000 - 499,000 including RDA

2. S101 Mod by San Indonesia x Gerobak Vapor (Single Battery Mod) – Rp 620,000 excluding RDA
