The Innokin Io is a mini pod mod device that is meant for users wanting a convenient and dependable vape. It is a small vape that is the size of a finger, making it highly portable and easy to carry on one’s person in a pocket or purse.

Despite its small size, this mod can produce a large amount of vapor, a decent throat hit, and it can support several types of e-liquids. It also functions marvellously well thanks to its build quality. The device has a 310 mAh battery, which is charged via a micro USB port. It has a tank capacity of 0.8 ml that will provide a great vaping experience.

What Makes the Innokin Pod so Special?

The first thing that anyone will notice about this device is its small size and stainless steel construction. The size of this new device makes it very convenient for the user to take it almost anywhere. It is not much larger than a cigarette, and it is lightweight and ergonomically designed to fit comfortably between the fingers. The construction of this piece ensures that it can endure the rough and tumble of travel. This vape is so small that it is easy to lose or accidentally wash. Be sure to keep a good eye on it.

The technical specifications for the Innokin Io are worthy of recognition, too. A 310 mAh built-in battery powers the vape. At first, this does not seem like much, but it is suitable for such a small-sized mod. It is charged via a micro USB port located at the end of the device. Only a five-volt wall charger should be used. The surface of the mod has a small LED light indicator that tells the user the status of the battery. To activate the mod, take a puff, and it will automatically turn on.

The kit comes with two pods that are capable of using several types of e-liquids and are refillable. They are easy to use, and they will not cause a mess thanks to Innokin’s ingenious spill-free refilling system. The pods will deliver satisfactory results every time.

Kit content

The starter kit comes with everything the user needs, save for e-juice. It comes with the device, a USB charger, two pods, and an instruction manual.

It also comes with a battery care guide that contains a lot of valuable information on how to avoid an accident that can ruin the vape. The guides in the package are written in several widely spoken languages.

Internal Building Quality and Design

The Innokin Pod is cleverly designed, and it has a sturdy build. The body of the device is made out of stainless steel, so it is very well protected from everyday wear and tear. The pod and the battery fit very well together, and there is no rattle or play between them. Users should not have problems with the design or quality of the build.

The Innokin Pod Battery

The Innokin’s battery might be only 310 mAh, but it works pretty well since it is supporting a device with straightforward, if not limited, features. It can hold enough charge to last the user much of the day. Users should not leave it on its own to charge because this could damage the device. The mod charges in under an hour, so the wait will not be a long one.

Battery Lights

The battery light is located on the face of the battery stick. It will glow when a puff is taken, and when the device is about to die, the light will flash ten times in succession before it deactivates.

Innokin Pod and Coils

The Innokin kit uses 0.8 ml ceramic and kanthal pods, and the kit comes with two of them. This is a huge benefit considering that the plexus coils in these pods cannot be replaced. The pods are capable of working on 5.5 to 8.5 watts of power. Once the plexus coils are no longer viable, the cartridge has to be discarded.

When the flavor and vapor production starts to decrease, that means it is time to replace the cartridge. But, they are refillable and can support regular e-juice, nicotine salts, and CBD liquid, making it a three-in-one system. The pods also produce a great deal of vapor, but not so much as to draw unwanted attention. Each pod should last around 200 puffs.

The pod’s fill ports are tiny, but that does not mean there will be a mess every time it is refilled. The package arrives with a short tip adapter with a funnel into which the e-juice and nicotine salt can be dropped. There will be absolutely no mess to clean up after the pod is topped off.

How to Refill the Innokin Pod

The Innokin Pod is easy to refill. Gently pull the pod out of the battery and open the silicone door at the bottom. Then take the tip adapter and push it into the refilling port. Once this is done, the e-juice can be added.

Who Are the Innokin Pod System’s Competitors?

Innokin Io vs. Juul

The Innokin and the Juul are both kits that are great for beginners and people who like an easy to use vape. But, with the Innokin kit, vapers get a little more bang for their buck.

JUUL Design Reviewed

The Innokin has a larger battery than the Juul’s 200 mAh, plus it holds slightly more e-juice than the Juul’s 0.7 ml. All of this means that the Innokin Pod will last longer and that its cartridges will provide more puffs before they need to be refilled.

Innokin Io vs. Uwell Caliburn

The Innokin Pod is an innovative little device, but the Uwell Caliburn outperforms it in several key areas. It has a larger battery at 520 mAh, and it can go up to 11 volts compared to the Innokin Pod’s 8.5.

The pods also carry 2 ml of e-juice, and they have dual 3.5 ml fill ports. Both the battery and the juice kits in the pods are going to make it last longer than the Innokin Io.

My way of understanding the significance of vaping came not only through the disruption of smoking but its effects on society as a whole. Now I bring people to vaping and bring vaping to people. I love using new gear, writing in-depth reviews and generally nerding out about vaping to like-minded people.
