Types of 510 Thread Battery

After learning about the problems, quick fixes, tips, and benefits of the 510 thread batteries, let’s dig into the types of 510 thread batteries that you can find in the market! Based on the availability of the button and voltage control function in the 510 thread batteries, here is the categorization of the 510 thread batteries:

This vape battery could only activate when the device is inhaled or in use to avoid low battery issues.
  • The 510 thread battery with button and fixed voltage are similar to the buttonless ones. However, vapers can turn the battery on and off with a touch of a button. The button switch acts as an activator that gives vapers control over their power usage. Despite the extra feature, the 510 thread battery still needs to be charged with low-voltage 510 battery chargers that come in the box.
  • The 510 thread battery with a button and variable voltage is the most sophisticated option due to its voltage control function. The 510 thread battery lets people input the voltage to determine how they want their 510 thread vape pens to operate. By clicking the voltage control buttons, vapers can decide if they want a light intake or a heavy puff. Therefore, vapers can rest assured that every puff they get will always be in their favor.
