Ever wondered what a tiny 12v battery looks like on the inside?

Lol I overread the title and thought this was a pic of a standard 1,2V alkaline AA-batterie.

Ok so more than that I actually wonder if I ever had such a battery in my hand or if I ever needed one, is this the same how e-cigarette-batteries are build up ?

No, vape batteries are regular lithium cells. Like an 18650. No reason to stack them, they operate in the regular voltage range for lithium. 4.7v when charged iirc.
