I have tried at least 15 or so pod systems marketed at DTL & MTL and have found some beauties like the GeekVape Bident and the Lost Vape Lyra but not found one that will work perfectly as a MTL and DTL with no real sacrifices.

The Smok RPM replacement vape coils are cross-compatible and can be used with a large range of Smok pod kits, including versions of the Smok Nord Pod kit and Smok RPM kit. A wide selection of coil builds are available to suit different vaping styles. This includes options to support MTL (Mouth To Lung) vaping as well as DTL (Direct To Lung) vaping. With a range of coil build options to choose from, these include the RPM Mesh 0.3 Ohm and 0.4 Ohm which produces increased cloud production with a larger surface area, the RPM Triple 0.6 Ohm which delivers for a fast ramp-up time, the 0.8 Ohm DC MTL coil as well as the RPM Quartz 1.2 Ohm and RPM SC 1.0 Ohm options for those who prefer reduced cloud creation. It has a respectable 1500ma battery that with most of the coils and careful use of power will last you all day.We personally prefer the vapor dynamics that the Nord DC 0.6 coil offers at 25 watts, it seems to be the perfect companion that offers satisfying hits of flavor and nicotine throughout the day. We used a 50/50 VG-PG e-liquid and never noticed any leaking issues, the vapor and flavor were consistently delivered throughout our testing period of five days.

Personally I love the mesh coils and although the recommended power is 25W I run mine much lower at between 12-15W which still gives me big clouds and big flavour but keeps my battery going all day and then goes on charge over night. We do recommend that you allow the new coil to sit in the e-liquid for a good 10 minutes before you try firing it up so as to prevent ‘burnouts’ or ‘dry fires’. Both RPM and Nord sub ohm coils have huge airflow and give fantastic DTL performance with big clouds and huge flavour. The price point is spot on and you get a lot for your money and the coils and replacement tanks are the same price as any other higher power pod system. I have been trying for months and months to find the perfect pod system that does not just bridge the gap between MTL pods and DTL tanks but to do both and fill every section in-between.

Review: Smok RPM40

The airflow is controlled by the coil used and power is fully adjustable from 1-40W with a nifty display and button setup. SMOK’s RPM40 does everything you could ask from a pod vape system and then a little more too! With battery capacity and wattage for any occasion along with SMOK’s fantastic Nord and RPM coil range, you’ve got a device for any instance that’s as portable and stylish as it is satisfying! We’re certain you’ll love the RPM40. The display and fully adjustable settings are spot on and make the unit super versatile. Again it is leaps and bounds ahead of any of it's rivals at this price point. This kit is a monster and the first AIO pod system I have tried to be both a true DTL and regular MTL device and fills every spot in-between!
