What is a Pod Vape?

You may be asking yourself, with all these new pod devices, pod mods, pod kits, AIOs, and more, what exactly is a pod vape? Here at EightVape, our definition of a pod device is a compact vape that accepts pods, coils, or integrated pods w/ coils but, most importantly, has a proprietary connection. We used to say pod devices were less than "X" watts; however, with the latest pod mods releasing at 80W, 90W, and some even over 100W, it's tough to go by wattage alone when determining your vape's species. What we mean by proprietary connection is essentially an atomizer connection that is anything but 510 threaded. If your vape has a 510 thread, your device would be classified as a mod, but if your device has a magnetic or snap-in connection, we classify that as a pod device.Get more news about Pod System ,you can vist our website!

Different Types of Pod Devices
Now there are two significant umbrellas that pod devices fall under - devices with pre-filled pods and devices with refillable pods (some may refer to them as Open & Closed Systems). Pre-filled pods are the easiest and simplest to understand, so let's start there. You are probably familiar with Juul and/or Vuse, the gas station kings of e-cigarettes. These devices are considered pre-filled pod devices (Closed Systems) as you purchase the device once and then replace the pods after you have vaped through them. Pre-filled pods are the simplest solution to stay away from the stinkies with no maintenance or additional purchases necessary, just crack open the packaging and throw the pod into your device. However, the major drawback with pre-filled pod devices is that you are stuck to ONLY vaping tobacco & menthol flavors. As of 2020, The FDA has begun cracking down on the manufacturing and sale of flavored pre-filled pods. This has made it impossible to find pods with any flavoring that is NOT tobacco or menthol. While that may be a huge bummer (I know, we adults like Cotton Candy & Blue Raspberry, too), you can still experience every flavor under the sun with refillable pod devices!

If you're like me and like your flavors, then refillable pods (Open Systems) are your move. This is where the flood gates open with options, though - pod devices, pod mods, AIO kits, OH MY! We will get into the differences between all the pod devices shortly, but all these devices have in common is that you provide the juice and re-fill the pods yourself.

Traditional Pod Devices
Let's now get into the different types of refillable pod devices and what each one accomplishes best. The first is your generic closed system pod device; this is your most common run-of-the-mill pod device. Some great examples of traditional pod kits would be the Uwell Caliburn G, the OXVA Xlim, and the Geekvape AP2. These pod vapes feature a pod that snaps into place or connects via magnets. What is different, however, is the coil & pod integration. With the Caliburn & XROS, the coil is built into the pod, making it impossible only to change the coil. Once you have burned through your coil, it's time to replace the entire pod. The Geekvape AP2, on the other hand, allows you to replace only the coil, saving on plastic waste and allowing you the freedom to switch resistances/coils whenever you'd like! If you have a preference, take a peek at the "Features & Specifications" tab to verify how the vape operates.
Pod Mods
Pod Mods are next, and this has been the device taking over as of late. Our definition of a pod mod is a pod device with a proprietary connection, 35W+, AND replaceable coils. While traditional pod devices can have integrated OR independent coils, pod mods utilize only independent coils. Pod mods fill the void of high-powered, portable devices, as now you can rip high wattage from an ultra-portable vape! A few examples of pod mods would be Vaporesso Gen PT60, the Lost Vape Centaurus Q80, and OXVA Origin 2.
AIO Devices
Next, we have the new kid on the block, AIOs! While yes, AIOs have been around for years, there has been a recent resurgence thanks to the Billet Box craze. AIOs stands for All in One, which you guessed it, the device is all in one - meaning the pod is built into the device itself, and you store your juice within the confines of the device. This can look like the aforementioned Billet Box, Tony B's & Vandy Vape's Pulse AIO, or even the DOVPO Abyss AIO. Usually, All-in-Ones will have a "Boro Tank" and/or "Bridge" that will house the juice and coil, respectively.
