Why Choose Sub-Ohm?
For cloud chasers, sub-ohm is the only style that really delivers. The low-resistance coils and higher wattage produce dense, visible vapour that standard pod kits simply can't match, and it's also where lower nicotine strengths make the most sense. Because you're taking in more vapour with each puff, even 3mg feels satisfying, and plenty of sub-ohm vapers sit at 0mg, vaping purely for the flavour and the ritual rather than nicotine. If that slower, deeper inhale appeals to you more than a tight cigarette-style draw, sub-ohm opens up a completely different experience.
Sub-Ohm Pod Kits vs Box Mods
The choice comes down to how you vape and what you're willing to carry. Sub-ohm pod kits keep things compact while still delivering enough power to run low-resistance coils properly, charging via USB-C and fitting easily in a pocket. Box mods push further with replaceable batteries, higher wattage ceilings, and broader tank compatibility, though the trade-off is size and weight. Whether you're after something portable for days out or a setup you can tweak at home, both styles produce proper clouds and genuine sub-ohm flavour.
E-Liquid Pairing
Sub-ohm coils run hotter and need thicker liquid to wick properly, which is why high VG blends of 70% or above work best with these kits. Thinner 50/50 e-liquids can flood the coil or spit at higher temperatures, and the throat hit often feels harsher than it should. Shortfills suit sub-ohm vapers particularly well since the larger bottles keep running costs down when you're going through juice faster than a standard pod setup would.
What works:
- High VG e-liquids (70% VG or above) for proper wicking and dense vapour
- Shortfills with a nic shot added for better value at higher consumption
- 3mg or 6mg freebase nicotine, or 0mg if you're vaping for clouds and flavour alone
What to avoid:
- 50/50 blends – too thin, causes flooding and spitback
- Nic salts – formulated for lower-powered MTL devices, overwhelming in sub-ohm
FAQs
Do I need experience before using a sub-ohm kit?
It helps to have some familiarity with vaping first. If you're still relying on higher nicotine to manage cravings from cigarettes, a simpler mouth-to-lung (MTL) setup with nic salts tends to work better in those early stages, and sub-ohm suits vapers who are ready to drop their strength and focus on flavour and vapour instead.
How long do sub-ohm coils last?
Usually between one and three weeks depending on how much you vape and how sweet your liquid is. You'll know it's time to change when flavour starts to dull or you catch a slightly burnt taste on the inhale.
What's the difference between built-in and removable batteries?
Built-in batteries charge via USB-C and keep things simple, while removable batteries let you swap in a fresh set when one runs flat. Removable suits heavy vapers or long days out, though they do need a separate charger.
Can I switch between MTL and sub-ohm on the same device?
Some vape kits support both by offering coils at different resistances. Swapping to a higher-ohm coil tightens the draw and reduces vapour, giving you something closer to an MTL experience without changing device.
