Understanding Different Types of Vapes
#Inside SXmini: Our Story ·2025-10-28 17:50:01
? What is an E-Cigarette?
An e-cigarette (vape) is a device that heats e-liquid into vapor for inhalation. Unlike traditional smoking or Heat-Not-Burn (HNB) products, vaping does not burn tobacco.
SXmini focuses on advanced vape technology, aiming to deliver smarter, safer, and customizable alternatives for adult smokers.
? 1. Box Mods
Box mods are larger vape devices with strong batteries and advanced chipsets. They are not always literally “box-shaped,” but they usually allow wattage adjustment, temperature control, and higher performance.
– For vapers who love customization and cloud production, SXmini offers G Class V2 and SL Class V2, both featuring precise temperature control and powerful performance.
? 2. Open Pod Systems
Open pod systems are compact and refillable. Instead of prefilled pods, users refill them with their preferred e-liquids. This reduces waste, lowers costs, and provides more flavor and nicotine options.
– SXmini’s Puremax 2 and Puremax Q are portable, easy to use, and come with vibration alerts to remind you when to refill. Perfect for beginners and everyday users.
? 3. Compact Mods
Compact mods combine the performance of a box mod with a smaller, pocket-friendly form factor.
– The SXmini MQ Class is designed for those who want elegance, portability, and reliable performance in a compact body.
? 4. Heat-Not-Burn (HNB)
HNB devices use specially designed tobacco units, heating them instead of burning. This reduces some harmful chemicals compared to cigarettes but still involves real tobacco.
– Key difference: SXmini vapes use e-liquids, not tobacco. HNB is closer to traditional smoking, while vaping offers adjustable nicotine levels, more flavors, and a cleaner experience.
? 5. Closed Pod Systems (Planned by SXmini)
Closed pod systems use prefilled pods that cannot be refilled. Once empty, the pod is replaced.
– Pros: Very convenient, no need to handle e-liquids.
– Cons: Limited flavors, higher long-term costs, and more waste.
– SXmini Outlook: Although SXmini currently does not offer closed pod devices, we are planning to launch them. Future SXmini closed pod systems will integrate temperature control, dry-hit protection, and vibration alerts, in collaboration with premium e-liquid companies, to bring users a higher-quality and safer closed pod experience.
? 6. Disposable Vapes
Disposable vapes are single-use devices discarded after the e-liquid or battery runs out.
– Pros: Extremely simple and portable.
– Cons: Not eco-friendly, limited performance, not customizable.
– SXmini View: SXmini does not produce disposables. We believe reusable systems, such as refillable pods, are more sustainable and provide better long-term value.
✅ Summary
– Box Mods → High performance, customization (SXmini G Class V2, SL Class V2)
– Open Pod Systems → Refillable, eco-friendly, beginner-friendly (SXmini Puremax 2, Puremax Q)
– Compact Mods → Stylish and portable (SXmini MQ Class)
– HNB → Tobacco-based, different from vaping
– Closed Pods → Prefilled and convenient (SXmini planning future versions with smart features)
– Disposables → Convenient but wasteful, not SXmini’s focus
SXmini’s philosophy: Vaping technology should be smarter, cleaner, and more sustainable. That’s why we focus on innovation like temperature control, vibration alerts, and eco-friendly refillable systems.
