Mig Vapor is a company that was started by former smokers. That’s right! People who switched from smoking and started vaping. We tried many brands and enjoyed the freedom from buying cigarettes and the smell of smoke, but we always had something to complain about with every brand we used. However, we loved vaping and didn’t want to go back to smoking standard cigarettes. One day we decided to experiment with mixing flavors and talked about problems with the batteries and different components. Since we have electronic engineering backgrounds – this became a fun and challenging endeavor. First, we talked about the battery life and power. The Battery seemed to become weaker with each puff, sort of like diminishing returns. So, we did what any group of electronic geeks would do… we tore the batteries apart for a look inside. We quickly realized that the problem was twofold. One, the batteries had different power specifications from one company’s batteries to the next. (This means that some batteries are simply weaker than others.) It’s like comparing a car battery to a flashlight battery. Obviously, the car battery is more powerful. Next, we looked at power control. The Electronic Cigarette needed a power control board. In simple terms, it’s an electronic board to correctly measure the power leaving the battery and heating the atomizer (the thing that makes the vapor in the cartridge). By adding the board we could ensure the power going to the atomizer is high voltage from the first puff, to the last puff until the battery is depleted.
