A vape battery can mean the part of the vape that holds a fixed internal battery. This term is often used for smaller vape devices such as pod kits or pen-style batteries.
With larger devices, the section that holds the battery is often called amod. This distinguishes it from the replaceable batteries that are often used inside a mod or pod mod.
Variable wattage (or voltage) batteries are the next step up from a manual battery. These allow you to increase or decrease the wattage provided by the battery, usually by pressing up/down controls.
There are several common types of variable wattage battery on the market today.
Do I need a license to sell Vaping products in the UK?
In short, no. If you’re selling branded e-liquids and not manufacturing your own, then you don’t need a license. However, manufacturers have to get their products registered with theMedicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA).
What are the regulations for e-liquids in the UK?
As stipulated in the Tobacco Products Directive, e-liquids with nicotine can only be sold in 10ml bottles in the UK. However, there’s no restriction with e-liquids that don’t have nicotine. An example of these would be shortfills, which are nicotine-free flavour concentrates that are available for as much as 50 to 100ml per bottle. You can then add a nicotine shot to these.
In the UK, e-liquids are also only allowed to have a maximum nicotine strength of 20 mg/ml. The manufacturer should ensure these come with nicotine warning labels.
