A 510 battery is a type of battery commonly used in the vaping industry to power vape cartridges, also known as “510 cartridges.” The term “510” refers to the threading size used to connect the battery to the cartridge. These batteries typically have a 510-threaded connection at one end and a USB charging port at the other. They are usually small and lightweight, making them easy to carry around and use on-the-go. The term “510 battery” has become a generic term for any battery with a 510-threaded connection, regardless of its specific brand or model.

A 510 battery works by providing power to a vape cartridge or atomizer that is attached to it. The battery usually has a button on it that you press to activate the heating element in the cartridge or atomizer. When you press the button, the battery sends power to the heating element, which heats up the liquid or concentrate in the cartridge or atomizer, producing vapor that can be inhaled.

Most 510 batteries have a built-in rechargeable battery and a USB charging port. When the battery runs out of power, you can recharge it by connecting it to a USB charger. Some 510 batteries also have features like variable voltage, which allows you to adjust the amount of power sent to the heating element, and preheat mode, which heats up the cartridge or atomizer for a few seconds before you start inhaling.
