If you’re considering vaping or are new to vaping, then you may have questions. Usually, one of the basic questions curious smokers have is: “How do vape devices work?”

Vape devices work in a similar way to humidifiers. A liquid is heated and then vaporized.

RELX devices are built with sophisticated technology to deliver a phenomenal vaping experience. Some key components of the vape device are the battery, flavour pod and atomizer.  

The whole process happens in a few seconds. The moment you inhale, the sensor on the device triggers the power output to activate the atomizer to begin heating up the e-liquid, which is then quickly vaporized for you to inhale. No ashes, no tar and best of all, no bad smells as compared to smoking cigarettes.

WHAT IS AN ATOMIZER?

During the vaping process, heat needs to be generated to vaporize e-liquid. An atomizer contains the heating elements needed for the vaporization process to work. The atomizer is located inside the flavour pod. 

Each time you change the flavour pod, you are starting with a fresh atomizer. Some vapers have issues with leaking, but with a new atomizer swapped out every few days, the risk of leaking is lower compared to open-system devices. 

For most of the RELX Infinity Pods, we use ceramic in the atomizer as the wick to soak up the e-liquid. And, in the newly released Infinity Pod Rich Tobacco flavour, we are using cotton fibers in the atomizer. 

Both atomizers have their own benefits, so let’s break it down and focus on the ceramic atomizer first.

RELX Pod Pro

CERAMIC ATOMIZER

As mentioned above, most of the RELX Infinity Pods is equipped with a ceramic atomizer. As you know, the atomizer vaporizes the e-liquid, so why ceramic? 

Ceramic can be heated at high temperatures and is also porous. In the flavour pod, the e-liquid evenly soaks into the ceramic, and once you inhale, the atomizer instantly heats to the right temperature and is evenly distributed. So each puff keeps a degree of flavour consistency from the first to the last puff. 

It completely unlocks the full-bodied flavour. This works well with certain flavours that are best experienced in their full taste. 

For example, if you’re trying Fresh Red with the RELX Infinity Pod, you will notice the flavour comes all at once and fills your mouth. The flavour profile for Fresh Red is pure with bold notes and the RELX Infinity Pod is a perfect match to unlock its full and authentic flavour.

COTTON ATOMIZER

RELX Infinity Pod Rich Tobacco flavour is equipped with a cotton wick in the atomizer. The raw cotton fibers soak in the e-liquid and are heated without burning to vapourize the e-liquid. 

So why cotton? 

Actually, it’s all about the experience. 

When vaping with a cotton atomizer, the heat gradually rises and the vapour is slightly warmer. Unlike a ceramic atomizer which heats the e-liquid all at once to release a full-flavour, the RELXPods or the atomizers with cotton fibers, deliver the flavour layer-by-layer. 

The vapour is pleasant and warm with each puff unlocking every flavour detail. For flavours which have been crafted to release different flavour notes, RELXPods offer a more dynamic experience. 

For example, at the first puff of Rich Tobacco, you will taste the nutty notes and then the flavour opens up with smokiness. Each puff will deliver a new experience.
