The short answer

The Imp Jar Pod System runs on a built-in 1000mAh battery, which typically lasts a full day of moderate use on a single charge. Battery life varies depending on how often you vape, the length of your draws and how frequently the screen or indicator light is checked.

What affects battery life

The biggest factor is simply how often you draw on the device throughout the day, since each puff uses a small amount of battery to fire the coil. Longer puffs and more frequent vaping naturally use more power than occasional, shorter draws.

What a full day actually means

Manufacturer estimates of all-day battery life are based on moderate, typical usage patterns. Heavier vapers who puff very frequently throughout the day may find they need a top-up charge before bedtime, while lighter users could comfortably stretch a single charge over two days.

Common questions about battery life

Will the battery life reduce over time?

Like all lithium-ion batteries, capacity gradually reduces with repeated charge cycles over many months of use, this is normal and expected.

Can I keep vaping while the device charges?

It is best to let the device charge fully before using it again, rather than vaping while plugged in, for both battery longevity and safety.

How do I know when the battery is running low?

The device features a visible battery indicator that shows your remaining charge, so you can plan a recharge before it runs out.
