Vaping is a smoking alternative that involves using an electronic cigarette to inhale the vapour. The vapour is produced when the e-liquid is heated in an electronic cigarette. Before the term Vaping became popular, the electronic cigarette was the common term.

A typical Vape has three main components

• Tank / Pod
• Mod (with batteries)
• E-liquid

The E-liquid is filled inside the tank, which contains the coil. The batteries heat the coil, which vaporizes the e-liquid, which the user then inhales.

Popular terms for vaping devices include Vapes, Pods, E-cigarettes, Juul, vaporizers, vape pens, mods, e-hookah & e-shisha. Different devices have different functions and appearances. Some are small, like a USB stick, while others are large sub-ohm mods with glass tanks..
