What Is Pod Mod?

Introduction

The use of vaping pod mods has become a widespread trend. But what sets these devices apart, and how do they work? In the following, we’ll explore pod mods and discuss their various types, features, pros and cons. So, let’s dive in.

Definition of Pod Mod

Pod mods combine the best features of pod systems and vape mods. They are e-cigarettes that use a mouthpiece attached to the device via a magnet to deliver nicotine.

This compact vaping device has a disposable plastic pod that holds the e-liquid. The cartridge and coils can be removed or changed, allowing you to refill them with either freebase nicotine liquid or nicotine salts in the empty cartridges.

One detail worth mentioning is that pod mods are unique devices that only function with the particular type of pod designed for that device.

Pod Mod Components

Pod mods are small e-cigarette devices. They are usually composed of 4 parts.

• A replaceable and removable pod
• Indicator light
• USB charging port
• Main body

How Do Pod Mods Work?

Pod mods work similarly to conventional vapes, but pod mods use a pod holding the e-juice instead of a tank or atomizer. Once the vaping device is activated, the battery powers the coil, which causes the e-liquid to heat up and transform into vapour.

Since most pod mods aren’t activated with a firing button, you can draw from the mouthpiece and inhale your vapour.

Types of Pod Mods

There are two main pod mods types: the open pod system and the closed pod system.

Open System

Open pod system uses pods that are replaceable and removable to fill with any nicotine salt e-liquid, allowing you to have the freedom to choose your own favourite liquid to pair with the device.

Closed System

A closed pod system means the pods have been pre-filled with e-liquid and cannot be refilled once used. Pods are disposed of after use and replaced with new ones.

Common Features of Pod Mods

There are various characteristics that may be present in pod mods, such as:

• Adjustable power settings that allow you to control the temperature of vapour, giving you a customized vaping experience.
• Replaceable coils allow you to change your vaping experience simply by installing a different coil.
• Compared to high-wattage box mods, the size is smaller, ideal for vapers who practice an on-the-go lifestyle.
• Better durability. Pod mods may often meet the IP67 standard for water and dust resistance and are designed to be shockproof.
