Vape terminology

[goldcoastmat]

I've been searching this massive forum you got going here, and havent been able to find a post that helps the newbie understand what all the lingo means. So figured I'd start one.. If I'm missing something or screw something up let me know and I'll edit it.

If it gets comprehensive enough maybe I can get it stickied and feel special .

Ecig - Electronic Cigarette
Mini - a small ecig about the same size and shape as an anolog cigarette
Anolog - The things you smoked before you vaped with the rest of the cool kids.
Ego - a small vaporizer larger than a Mini with an internal rechargeable battery
APV - Advanced Personal Vaporizer
VV - Variable Voltage
VW - Variable Wattage
Ohm - a measurement of electrical resistance
atty - Short for Atomizer
Carto - short for Cartomizer
RBA - Rebuildable Atomizer
RAT/RTA - Rebuildable atomizer tank/rebuildable tank atomizer.
Mod - another name for APV
Bat - battery
Tank - basicly what it sounds like, a tank that holds juice for your vape.
Hybrid - An APV that has the tank (and usually an RAT) and the mod built together instead of two different sections.
juice/Ejuice/eliquid/Vape Juice - the liquid used to refill vaporizers

drawing a blank will come back and edit in more.

I think a glossary is an excellent idea! I found myself looking for something like this too.

EDIT: So there is one. Thanks, I stand corrected.

Whoops looks like I was just looking in the wrong place lol. Should I fill out the post then or just chalk it up to being a noob?
