Best Pod Mods of 2020

A simplified compact kit, the Lost Vape Orion Q Pod Kit is easy to use for beginners. It is small and fits the hand well — it is lightweight yet solid. The device comes pre-programmed with a range of finely tuned firing modes. Q pod sports a durable, premium alloy shell with carbon fiber panels for an excellent grip. The cartridge could be easily filled — one just needs to twist off the cap next to the drip tip. It also has an easy slide-off button to use for when you want to change the cartridge.

This pod vape does not rely on a chip for performance; instead, it makes use of a direct voltage-based output where the current battery level determines the power output. Orion Q pod offers a reach of up to 17W and makes use of a 1.0Ω refillable pod with a capacity of 2mL that locks into it and Orion uses. Integrated into the device is a full safety suite which includes short-circuit protection, weak battery protection, temperature protection, and low/high resistance protection. With its one-button design, it offers a much simpler vape experience. A multi-colored LED battery life indicator makes checking current battery level easier: literally with a glance.

It has a built-in 950mAh battery that can deliver around 450 puffs per charge.

The myBlu starter kit is a hybrid, AIO and pod device that offers an MTL vaping experience in a portable, easy-to-use unit. The myBlu consists of a battery section, where users insert pre-filled pods. The mod has no buttons, and the pods work through draw-activation (users need to inhale to start the battery).

The cell inside the device has a 350mAh capacity and can power the device for about 400 puffs. The e-liquid pods can hold about 1.5ml of e-liquid. The flavor options for the device number seventeen different flavors that range from Mango and Mint to classic Tobacco and Menthol flavors.

The battery section has an LED to show battery life of the cell with blue showing a full battery, an orange light means it’s halfway complete, and a red light means it is time to recharge. Charging the device takes only twenty minutes, according to the myBlu website. The kit also includes a USB charging cable.

An ultra-compact closed system device, the Kilo 1K Ultra E-Cigarette Pod System measures 109mm x 9.5mm x 18mm (pretty compact). It has a matte black finish and a comfortable rubberized grip. A simple plug-and-play ecosystem provides magnetic-connection pods. Inhaling with a draw-activated firing mechanism helps to get a tight mouth to lung draw. Its weight of 26 grams gives the device more substance. It delivers the perfect balance of optimal performance and ultra-portability.

The Kilo 1K replacement pods hold up to 1.5mL of pre-filled juice with 45mg of nicotine that comes in six flavor profiles: strawberry, lemon berry ice, dewberry, nutty, smooth tobacco, and menthol tobacco. These pre-filled pods are integrated with atomizer core and organic cotton. The Kilo 1K has a voltage-based output and an atomizer resistance of 1.8 Ω. As it is draw activated there is no buttons to push. It has dual airflow slots with a tapered mouth for optimal vapor and flavor. Each pod is virtually leak and spill free, ensuring that one enjoys their flavor of choice to the very last drop. It also has an LED indicator that changes from red to white when it is fully charged. It also lights up when the device is charging or when in use.

It has a built-in 350mAh battery (which takes around 1.5 hours to be fully charged) that can give you almost a day of moderate usage with it.

A stylish, beautiful, and portable pod system vape device, the Mi-Pod uses a manual auto-draw activation for a simplified vaping process. Supports both replaceable and refillable pods with a 2mL salt-based e-liquid capacity. It has an outstanding top-fill design with an anti-leak system. The pods have two fins on the sides for a better grip when pulling it out. It also has a three-light LED battery indicator that lets you know its current battery level. A blue light indicates a full battery, a purple light indicates a 50% battery, and a red light indicates a low battery. Its vertical viewing window, on the other hand, lets you know how much more juice is in the tank.

It has a voltage output of 3 to 4.2 volts and a cartridge resistance of 1.3 Ω. It has a stealth mode mechanism to give you privacy when you need it, a 10-second cut-off time, several safety protections like overheat protection, short circuit protection, low voltage protection, and low resistance protection. It also utilizes the OAS (Oil and Air Separated) system to help prevent leaking of e-liquids.

It has an integrated 950mAh high-drain lithium battery that could last a day or more.

The Suorin Edge is a pod vape system with a removable 230mAh battery. The kit includes two removable batteries that vapers can swap out for near-constant vaping. The cell can output 10W.

Internally, replacement pod holds a 1.5ml with a 1.4ohm coil inside for optimal mouth-to-lung vaping. Vapers fill the pod from a side fill port and insert the gold-plated contacts onto the battery until it snaps into place. There is a small ejector button for the accumulator on the side. With 5 rapid clicks, the device turns ON/OFF. The Edge features draw-activated option.

The device itself is slim, with sharp lines and edges. The outer chassis of the Suorin Edge features a durable aluminum alloy construction. There are three distinct color options to choose, red, silver, and black.

Along the edge of the pod, an LED indicator shows the current life of the battery. The cell uses a proprietary Type-C connector that enables a quick charging time of only half an hour.

At only 4 inches long, the Rubi is compact and discreet. Discreet also because it requires no filling of cartridges. Simply slip on a pre-filled pod and get on the go. A nice feature, though, is the fact that these pods are refillable so there is nothing forcing anybody to only use Kandypens pods. Fill them with any e-liquid of any PG to VG ratio. Even thick oils can be vaped.
The Rubi is automatically temperature controlled, so a perfect vape is had every time no matter what is being vaped. It fires up to 482°F for 8 seconds for a smooth vape. The coil in the pods is ceramic, and the wick is cotton allowing all the flavors of the juice to really shine.

No settings to fidget with and no fire button makes it a cinch to use. It detects negative airflow, so it starts the vapor as soon as a draw is started.

The battery can deliver up to 50 puffs before needing to recharge.

The Drop may be stylish and compact, but it is hiding a rather large pod that holds 2ml of e-liquid.
For Mouth to Lung vaping, the Drop is ideal. The coil in the pods is 1.3 Ohms and works best with high PG e-liquids. Since it can be refilled, this is something to keep in mind. They are easily refilled with needle droppers.

Leak free and spitback resistant, the drop pods have two chambers. This makes it perfect to mix e-juices without having to do the mixingecon beforehand. Simply fill one chamber with one juice and the other chamber with another flavor. The pods can be refilled with any type of e-liquid including nic salts.

The vapor is reasonably warm without getting hot and makes for a silky smooth hit. Throat hit will depend on the PG ratio and nicotine levels, but expect a reasonable hit without it being harsh.

This is an open pod system meaning that the cartridges are refillable. The pod can be filled with any e-juice, but the coil resistance is 1.2Ohm so that should factor into the decision as to what e-juice to use. Suorin recommends a 70/30 VG to PG ratio for best results and to not go below 60/40 to avoid leaking from thin e-juices.
The pod has a 2ml capacity and should last a day of normal puffing. How many times the pod can be refilled depends more on the liquid that is being refilled, but expect 4 to 5 refills before the coil is burnt.

The battery may need recharging before the pod is empty as it is a 400 mAh, but with normal vaping it can last up to a day. The recharge is fast at around 30 minutes, however.

The slim profile works well for slipping into a pocket or purse and fits well in the hand for a quick stealth vape on the go.

The XPOD Mini Vape from EPuffer is a pod device that uses pre-filled cartridges. The battery section of the unit has an internal 280mAh battery. The exterior is a sturdy, but thin, high-quality plastic.
The device is draw-activated, and there are no buttons. There is a small LED light at the tip that lights up whenever someone takes a vape.

The pods have 1.2ml of e-liquid. The pods, which are disposable, contain a unique nicotine salt blend. Users can choose from only one nicotine strength, 1.8% or 18mg of nicotine. Each can last for at least 300 puffs.

The e-liquid is a 50/50 PG/VG blend. There is a coil with a resistance of 2.7ohms in each pod. The three flavor options available include Tobacco, Cool Menthol, and Tropical Mango. Each pod comes in the color of its corresponding flavor. The Tobacco pods are red, the Menthol is blue, and the mango is yellow.
