What Is a 510 Thread Battery and What Is It Used For?

A 510 thread battery is a rechargeable power source. It gets its name from the standardized 510 connection, which is the most common threading used in the vaping industry. These vape batteries power your vaping device and connect to various compatible tanks and cartridges. They're particularly popular for use with oil cartridges and other 510-compatible atomizers.

What’s the Difference Between 1000MAH and 1300MAH Batteries?

The mAh (milliamp hours) rating indicates the battery capacity. Here's how they compare:

  • 1000mAh batteries:
    • Provide approximately 800-1000 puffs per charge
    • More compact and lightweight
    • Ideal for occasional users or those preferring portability
  • 1300mAh batteries:
    • Offer approximately 1000-1200 puffs per charge
    • Slightly larger but provide longer usage time
    • Better suited for regular users who need extended battery life

Keep in mind that your vaping frequency can affect battery life.
