Hello vapers! The vape industry is constantly evolving. And vapes themselves are electronic devices that definitely need power or batteries to operate.

As an electronic device, a vape's operating system relies on electrical current to heat the coil and produce vapor. Therefore, charging is an important aspect to consider.

Now, one question that often arises from users—especially those new to the world of vaping—is: "Is it okay to charge the battery directly in the mod?"

A simple but important question! Because if you charge carelessly without knowing the risks, it can impact battery performance and even safety. Let's discuss it together so you can charge safely and continue to enjoy vaping.

Directly Charging Your Vape is Okay, but Pay Attention to This!

If you're still wondering, is it okay to charge your vape directly? The answer is yes, it's fine. But there are a few important things you need to pay attention to.

One of them is, don't forget to unplug the charger once the battery is full. Although simple, this is very important to prevent the battery from being damaged quickly.

About Fast Charging Feature in Mods

Some modern vape mods are indeed equipped with a fast-charging feature, meaning they can charge faster than usual. But it's important to note that not all mods have this feature. Usually, only specific mods do, such as:

• Mods with a DNA chip (e.g., Therion)
• Mods that use an AXON chip (e.g., Vaporesso Gen)
• Mods with an AS chip (in some Aegis series)

This fast charging feature is actually more suitable for emergency situations, for example, when you're out and about and forget to bring an external charger. But if the situation is relaxed, it's better to use a dedicated external battery charger for more safety and longevity.

A bad example would be charging your mod overnight and leaving it while you sleep—don't do that! It can cause the battery to wear out quickly or even pose a risk.

Additional Info on Batteries & Chargers

For example, if you use a Sony VTC 5A battery, it can actually be charged at a speed of up to 2.5A. But if you choose to charge it at a lower speed, for instance, 1A, the battery will last longer because it won't heat up as quickly.

Conversely, if you continuously use a high current (above 2.5A), the battery can heat up quickly and its lifespan will be shorter. So if you still want to fast charge, it's best to do it in a cool room temperature environment to keep the battery stable.

Fun fact: Sony states that if a VTC 5A battery is charged 500 times at a speed of 2.5A at 23°C, its capacity can still maintain up to 70%. But if you frequently overcharge or use a higher current, don't be surprised if the battery drains quickly.

Recommended Mods That Can Be Charged Internally

To make vaping simpler, safer, and ensure your activities run smoothly as usual, Vapeboss has several recommended mod devices that are quite safe to charge internally directly in the device, including:

1. Hotcig R99

The R99 Mod, the latest collaboration between Hotcig x Vapeboss, is one of the mods that supports direct charging via USB Type-C on its body.

Although most Hotcig mods are known for their waterproof features, for the R99 series, this feature might not work optimally due to the internal charging feature.

But don't worry, in terms of safety, it can still be relied upon, as this mod is equipped with a special chip that handles its charging system.

Based on daily usage testimonials from the Vapeboss team for several months since the R99's release, direct charging to this device has proven safe—both in terms of battery safety and device performance.

2. TRML T99

The second mod that supports internal charging directly on its body is the TRML T99. Its system is almost the same as the R99 in the previous recommendation; the T99 is also equipped with a special chip that handles charging.

The difference is that with the TRML T99, you have to open the panel first to be able to charge the battery internally.

3. Centaurus M200

Among the larger mods, there's the Centaurus M200 which also supports internal battery charging via USB Type-C.

However, for the Centaurus M200, it's not highly recommended, even though it's supported by a special chip for charging. The Centaurus M200 has a display screen which might be affected when charged internally.

Conclusion

Charging directly in the mod is perfectly safe as long as you know its limits. In an emergency, it's okay, but for regular use, it's better to use a dedicated battery charger. Besides being safer, your battery will also last longer.

Remember, the battery is the heart of your vape—take good care of it, so vaping remains safe and comfortable!
