What is inside a single use vape pen sensor?

[Loneman_OG]

This is _exactly_ the information I was looking for; thanks very much for the clear & concise video. 👍

Cant believe this is what I was looking for and I found a video for it. thank you!

That's a slick reuse of parts, I love it!

[lumstarrs]

Does anyone know the name or part name of this specific sensor, or the vape that was taken apart in this video? I am looking to purchase one of these specific sensors.

How do you recommend removing that tiny LED? When I take it off it seems to stop working but I was hoping to reuse it as an indicator LED on projects.

Sir, 850mah battery 3.7v same type like on your video, how much current (milliamps) are the best way for charging..thanks

[stevenadams]

Gr8 info, I was looking for how this works. As I wanted to mount it in my car as a warning light fake alarm type led.
But idk how to make it flash or stay on constantly?
My led is blue a nice aqua blue

So if I were to swap the atomizer with a motor and keep the battery, when I blow on this sensor, the motor would run correct? Or is there any other part that is needed for a motor to run?

This was just what i was looking for. Do you think i could solder two more wires and attach an USB connector, so i could charge the battery connected to the sensor?

How do I find & buy the electronic components for vape pins, also do you know the name of the breathing sensor so I can purchase it. I couldn't understand you when you said the term name

[savikate]

Can You please share schematics for Your project/custom pcb? I want to use that sensor as a touch switch. The link in the description doe not work.

Hey, somehow I ended up at your video when I was trying to understand how my vapes know when I am inhaling. I guess that means you have the best explanation on the web at the moment!

[Senjekai]

hi!
I'm incredibly inspired by your video for a project and have extracted a bunch of the led chips (around 64) and was wondering if it would be possible to make it into an LED cube? I would love to learn more about how it works and any help would be greatly appreciated!! Thank you for making this video!

Hello, great video. Thank you... it is possible to make a start/stop function for air compressor? Some one do it?

So some vapes use flow sensors and others capacitive ones?

[ralphpeteranderl]

I took apart a vape pen that I found in the parking lot, and that sensor had puzzled me to kn end. I was sure it was a microphone... I can't believe that this (and the Li rechargeable battery) is disposable. What a waste ...
By the way, my guess for the reason why the LED is delayed - it's supposed to look like the glow of a cigarette that has that delay when you drag on it.

After breaking open several sensors, they're all similar, with a diaphragm, conductive on one side. It would be nice to make it into an electret or capacitor microphone, though unfortunately you cannot connect to both the diaphragm and its fixed "plate" without opening and thereby destroying the vape sensor capsule. As I don't smoke, I have no idea how e-cigs work for their consumer use!

[stevenadams]

How would I get led to stay on constantly?
Can you hack the combustion seal!
Hack of the day link not working…

[nucleo]

my friend can you tell me what kind of electric cable they use in this vape pen...they wery thin ...good for my hooby and smal projects

[smothclipsers]

I've been salvaging vape batteries and found one of these but with 6 pins instad of 3. Could you explain this device too?
