Types of Pod Systems

Types of Pod Systems

Pod Systems are definitely a blessing in the vaping industry. Highlighted by the smaller size, higher degree of portability, and lower cost, pod systems have taken the vaping world by storm. They have plenty of benefits, eliminating the need for spare batteries and chargers, excess juice bottles, and build kits. Replaced with USB cables, lower charging times, and stronger eJuice, these pod systems are much more suitable for those that like to vape on the go, delivering nicotine in a discrete method without letting everyone in a 30 foot radius know that you vape.



Let’s take a look at the different pod systems and the potential benefits that each can provide. Pod systems come in a myriad of shapes and forms, but we will divide them into a few smaller categories, hopefully helping in deciding which type best suits your lifestyle.

Basic Pod Systems

Basic Pod Systems are cost-efficient barebone vape configurations, including only the most basic and needed features to deliver that much needed nicotine. Usually opting for a refillable pod and battery configuration, these setups are the easiest to maintain and use, making them extremely attractive to those beginning vaping or more advanced users that want a dependable and cheap vape without any extra bells and whistles. The Uwell Caliburn KOKO utilizes a draw-activated firing mechanism, while the SMOK Nord Pod System relies on a single firing button to activated the firing mechansim.

Pod Mod Systems

Pod Mod Systems are the next tier of portable pod systems, usually equipped with more features that can include an adjustable wattage, display screen, removable external battery, and sometimes temperature control. This does translate to a slightly higher cost, but improves the quality of life and delivers more features to the user for a higher degree of customization. Pod Mods Systems are growing in popularity as those that use pod systems want a little more out of their devices, with Pod Mod Systems bridging the gap between pod systems and box mods. One Pod Mod System that encapsulates all the features above is the Voopoo Vinci X Pod System, granting users the perfect middle ground.

Advanced Pod Systems

Advanced Pod Systems would be the highest tier of pod systems, including many of the features above, but with even more customization or details. Many of them utilize higher quality materials or construction, which translates to a higher price point, even rivaling box mod kits. Some, like the YiHi SX Auto, include features like auto-squonking and luxurious design elements.
