FIELD GUIDE / TERMINOLOGY

Less jargon.
More context.

A practical reference for reading device documentation. Search a term or browse the eight entries below.

8 terms

Battery capacity

Usually expressed in mAh. Capacity is not a direct measure of device lifespan or safety. Compare only like-for-like test conditions.

Coil

The heating element. Mesh describes one construction format; the term alone does not establish safety or performance.

Device / pod / charging unit

Separate components that may have different compatibility requirements. Never assume a shared brand means compatibility.

Display

May show battery, operating mode or liquid estimates. Read the exact model documentation rather than treating every indicator as a measurement.

Nicotine concentration

May be expressed as mg/mL or a percentage. Labels and formulations vary by jurisdiction. Nicotine is addictive.

Puff count

A manufacturer estimate dependent on draw length, operating mode and other conditions. It is not a guaranteed number of uses.

Rechargeable

Describes a battery designed to accept charging. It does not mean the liquid reservoir can be refilled.

Source date

The date a publication checked a source. Manufacturer pages can change; check the exact regional edition.
