E-Cig Glossary
306 - One of many styles of electronic cigarettes available. Many users of the 510 e-cigs are using the 306 atomizers on their batteries, as they feel it gives a better experience. 510 - Arguably the most common and popular style of electronic cigarettes available.
808 or KR808 - One of many styles of electronic cigarettes available.
901 - One of many styles of electronic cigarettes available.
A
Adapter - Used to allow a specific style of atomizer or cartomizer to fit onto a different style of battery.
Advanced Personal Vaporizer (APV) (See Mod)
Analog or Analogue - Slang term for a traditional cigarette.
Atomizer (Abbreviated as Atty) - The part of an e-cigarette that actually heats the juice to the point of vaporization.
Atty - Abbreviation for Atomizer.
Automatic - A style of electronic cigarette battery that does not have a button to activate the heating element.
B
Batt - Abbreviation for Battery.
Battery (Abbreviated as Batt) - The battery piece of an electronic cigarette is the part that provides power to the heating element. This allows the heating element to heat the Juice and produce vapor.
Bridge - A small U-shaped covering inside of the atomizer. This is used to absorb liquid and help wick it towards the heating element.
C
Cartridge (Abbreviated as Cart) - A plastic tube-like piece that is usually stuffed with some sort of absorbent filler material that holds the juice.
Cart - Abbreviation for Cartridge.
Carto - Abbreviation for Cartomizer.
Cartomizer (Abbreviated as Carto) - A cartridge and atomizer in a single unit. These generally are disposable, inexpensive and hold more juice than a regular cartridge/atomizer combination.
Charger - A battery charger. This is used to recharge your e-cig battery once it has been depleted.
D
Drip Tip - An accessory that can be used in conjunction with an atomizer or cartomizer. These have a larger opening than the original equipment and allows a user to drip Juice directly onto the atomizer. Some people use a drip tip on their Cartomizers simply for looks and/or comfort.
Dripping - A method of adding juice to the atomizer. A user will drip a few drop directly onto the bridge before vaping. Many users feel this method produces the best vapor production and taste, since there is no filler material involved with the process.
E
E-Cig - Abbreviation for Electronic Cigarette.
E-Juice - Also referred to as E-Liquid, Juice, or Smoke Juice. This is the liquid that is vaporized when using an electronic cigarette.
E-Liquid - Also referred to as E-Juice, Juice, or Smoke Juice. This is the liquid that is vaporized when using an electronic cigarette.

F
FDA - Abbreviation for the (United States) Food and Drug Administration.
Filler Material (Abbreviated as Filler) - Material placed inside of a Cartridge that is absorbent.
Flooding - Something that can occur when too much Juice is applied to the atomizer. Since atomizers require some air to properly vaporize Liquid, adding too much Juice to an atomizer will cause a decrease in Vapor Production and flavor.
Food and Drug Administration (Abbreviated as FDA) - An administrative branch of the United States government that oversees rules and regulations pertaining to the safety of food and drug products sold in the USA. There is currently a very controversial lawsuit involving the FDA and the importation and distribution of electronic cigarettes.
Juice - Also referred to as E-Liquid, E-Juice, or Smoke Juice. This is the liquid that is vaporized when using an electronic cigarette.
Leaking - This can happen when too much Juice is added to an atomizer or cartomizer. Juice can leak out of the bottom of the heating element and onto the battery, which in some cases can cause damage to the device (as is the case with Automatic Batteries). LED - Abbreviation for Light Emitting Diode.
Light Emitting Diode (Abbreviated as LED) - A diode that converts applied voltage to light. These are commonly used in electronic cigarette devices to indicate that the device is actively being used.
Liquid - Also referred to as E-Liquid, E-Juice, Smoke Juice, or Juice. This is the liquid that is vaporized when using an electronic cigarette.
Low Resistance (Abbreviated as LR) - An atomizer or cartomizer with a lower Ohm rating than the standard equipment.

Manual - A style of electronic cigarette battery that has a button (usually on the top or side of the battery) that activates the heating element.
Milliamp Hour (mah) - A measure of the working capacity of a battery.
mg - Abbreviation for Milligrams.
Milligrams (Abbreviated as mg) - The amount of nicotine found in a Juice. Typical levels include 0mg, 6mg, 8mg, 12mg, 16mg, 18mg, 24mg, 30mg, 36mg and 48mg.

Those who use Juice with a higher nicotine content than that are generally people who were heavy smokers or have been vaping for quite some time.
Milliliters (Abbreviated as mL) - The amount of Juice in a given container.
Mini - One of many styles of electronic cigarettes available. These generally are about the same size as a traditional cigarette and have the shortest battery life of any style.

Ohm (Ω) - A measure of electrical resistance. A lower number indicates lower resistance and therefore faster heating. The symbol for Ohm is the capital Greek letter Omega (Ω). Passthrough - A device that plugs directly into the USB port of a computer or charger and allows the user to vape without having to worry about battery life. Some users report better vapor production and/or flavor while using a Passthrough compared to their regular batteries.

Suggest adding the following:

DiscountVapers.com_5s_Clearomizer_Clear_parts__02181.1411733777.1280.1280.jpg


Clearomizer - A term used for a type of cartridge having either a fully clear to see through shell or at least a sliver of transparent shell. This is done to let users see their juice amount remaining. A good example style of these are also called, ....

kanger-evod-2-tank_1024x1024.jpg


Evods - A style of clearomizer made popular by Kanger & SmokTech. It is believed the name evod was chosen as it is the reverse of Dove. These "tank" style atomizers used a clear section of shell to let users see their juice, thus offering a peaceful solution to using more juice but not knowing how much in a "tank". Dove's have long been associated with peace ergo it made sense to name such a atty after a representation of peace, yet due to various trademark issues using it was a bit out of reach, and they ended up being evods instead.


ardent_rda_1_large.png


RDA - Similar to RBA listed yet does not include "tank" style re-buildable atomizers. RDA are re-buildable Dripping atomizers, One drips juice into the atomizer or squonks juice into it. The atomizer houses the wick and coil. Usually RDA have small drip wells, these are not large reservoirs as are found on "tank" style atomizers. They may hold about 1 ml of juice along with roughly 1 ml of juice saturating the wick, these of course are approximations.

aromomizer-supreme-rdta.jpg


Tank style RBA - These may be Re-Buildable Tank having atomizers. they can be the type having a RDA deck atop a tank below called a Benny style or place the deck in internal housing with chimney as seen above. One could be nearly forgiven for calling these clearomizers.

Terminology in vaping is very subjective. I call something like the above an RDTA, Tank. Others call them Sub-Ohm Tank. I'm sure I likely could add or detract more definitions, be told I'm correct or in error either way. Merely thought these needed presented.
