Sub Ohm Vape Kits

53 items
Looking to take your vaping to the next level? Sub ohm vape kits are the ultimate choice for those who crave intense flavour and thick, billowy clouds. These high-performance devices are specifically crafted for direct-to-lung (DTL) vaping, making them a go-to option for seasoned vapers and cloud chasers alike. Unlike basic starter kits, sub ohm setups are built with low-resistance coils-typically under 1 ohm-which allows them to operate at higher wattages. The result? Powerful vapour production, richer flavour delivery, and a smoother, shisha-like inhale that feels satisfying with every puff. Whether you're switching from a pod kit or diving deeper into the vaping scene, sub ohm vape kits provide a more advanced, customizable experience.

What is a Sub Ohm Vape Kit?

Sub ohm vape kits are advanced vaping devices that utilize coils with a resistance of less than 1 ohm. This low resistance allows for higher power output, resulting in greater vapour production and enhanced flavour. Unlike traditional vape kits, which are often used for mouth-to-lung (MTL) vaping, sub ohm kits are designed for direct-to-lung (DTL) inhalation, where vapour is drawn directly into the lungs. This style of vaping is preferred by many for its similarity to smoking a shisha or hookah, providing a smoother and more satisfying experience. At VapeForest, we offer a wide range of sub ohm vape kits from leading brands like Smok and GeekVape, ensuring you find the perfect device to suit your needs.

Sub ohm vaping offers several advantages over traditional vaping methods:

Increased Vapour Production

Increased Vapour Production

The low-resistance coils and high power output generate large clouds of vapour, perfect for those who enjoy cloud chasing.

Enhanced Flavour

Enhanced Flavour

With more vapour comes more flavour. Sub ohm kits allow you to experience the full depth of your e-liquid’s taste.

Lower Nicotine Strengths

Lower Nicotine Strengths

Due to the increased vapour production, you can use e-liquids with lower nicotine levels while still satisfying your cravings.

Customizable Experience

Customizable Experience

Many sub ohm kits feature advanced settings such as variable wattage, temperature control, and adjustable airflow, giving you complete control over your vaping experience.

How to Choose the Best Sub Ohm Vape Kit?

With so many sub ohm vape kits on the market, finding the perfect one can feel overwhelming-especially if you’re new to high-performance vaping. To make your decision easier, here are the key features to look out for:

Power Output

Choose a kit with adjustable wattage that matches your vaping preferences. Higher power settings deliver bigger clouds and bolder flavour, perfect for experienced vapers who enjoy direct-to-lung (DTL) hits.

Battery Life

For all-day vaping, opt for a device with a strong built-in battery or support for external batteries. The longer the battery lasts, the less you’ll need to recharge: ideal for heavy users or those always on the go.

Coil Compatibility

A versatile device that supports multiple coil types allows you to fine-tune your experience. Look for kits compatible with a wide range of resistances and e-liquid types, especially high-VG blends.

Tank Capacity

Larger tanks mean fewer interruptions to refill, making them great for extended vaping sessions. If convenience is important to you, go for kits with high-capacity tanks.

Our Top Picks for Sub Ohm Vape Kits

At VapeForest, we’ve curated a selection of the best sub ohm vape kits on the market. Here are some of our favourites:

  • Voopoo Drag E60: A compact sub ohm pod kit that doesn’t compromise on performance, ideal for vapers on the move.
  • VOOPOO DRAG 4: This kit is renowned for its durability and high power output, making it perfect for cloud enthusiasts.
  • GeekVape Aegis Touch T200: Featuring advanced temperature control and a large tank with a touch screen, this kit is designed for all-day vaping.

E-Liquids for Sub Ohm Vaping

To get the most out of your sub ohm vape kit, it’s crucial to use the right e-liquid. We recommend e-liquids with a high vegetable glycerine (VG) content, typically 70% VG or higher. High-VG e-liquids produce thicker vapour and are less likely to cause dry hits or coil clogging.

At VapeForest, we stock a vast array of premium e-liquids perfect for sub ohm vaping. From fruity blends to dessert flavours, you’re sure to find something that suits your taste. Browse our E-Liquid Flavours for the latest offerings.

Maintenance and Safety Tips

Proper care and maintenance of your sub ohm vape kit will ensure it performs optimally and lasts longer. Here are some tips:

  • Regular Cleaning: Clean your tank regularly to prevent residue build-up and maintain flavour purity.
  • Coil Replacement: Replace coils every 1-2 weeks or when you notice a burnt taste or reduced vapour production.
  • Battery Safety: Use high-quality batteries and follow the manufacturer’s guidelines for charging and handling.
  • Wattage Settings: Always use the recommended wattage range for your coils to avoid damaging them.

Running a Sub Ohm Kit Day to Day

A sub ohm mod and tank setup labelled: coil below 1 ohm, 40 to 100 watts, 70/30 shortfill at 3mg, airflow open, 18650 battery

A sub ohm kit is three things working together: a coil below 1.0 ohm, enough wattage to heat it, and a thick liquid that can keep up. The kits here range from the VooPoo Argus E40 at 40 watts through the Drag X and Smok RPM 100 at 100 watts to the GeekVape Aegis X at 200. The coil sets the power: a 0.3 ohm mesh wants 60 to 80 watts, a 0.15 ohm coil closer to 90. Start at the bottom of the printed range and climb until the flavour is warm and full.

Liquid is where new sub ohm vapers go wrong. Use 70/30 shortfills at 3mg or 6mg; anything stronger at this vapour volume is harsh. Open the airflow fully, prime every new coil for five minutes, and expect one to three weeks per coil depending on sweetness. Removable 18650 kits need a spare cell and an external charger, worth the extra £20 for all-day use.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Sub ohm vaping involves using coils with a resistance below 1 ohm, allowing for higher power output and more vapour production, typically for direct-to-lung (DTL) inhalation. Regular vaping often refers to mouth-to-lung (MTL) vaping with higher resistance coils and less vapour.

While beginners can use sub ohm kits, they are generally recommended for those with some vaping experience due to the higher power and different inhalation technique required.

For sub ohm kits, it’s best to use e-liquids with at least 60% VG, preferably 70% or higher, to ensure optimal vapour production and flavour.

Coils should be replaced every 1-2 weeks or when you notice a decline in flavour or vapour production. The frequency depends on usage and the type of e-liquid used.

Nicotine salts are typically used in lower power devices for MTL vaping. However, some sub ohm kits can handle nicotine salts at lower strengths, but it’s generally recommended to use freebase nicotine e-liquids for sub ohm vaping.

 

A pod mod with built-in battery: the VooPoo Argus E40 at £23.99 or Vaporesso GTX One Pro at £27.99. Both cap at 40 watts, use plug-in coils and charge over USB-C, so there is no battery handling. Move to a removable 18650 kit once you know you want more power.

Strictly no, since every kit here charges over USB-C, but an external charger is safer, faster, and lets you rotate a spare cell so the kit never sits idle. Never carry a loose 18650 in a pocket with metal objects.

Because each puff vaporises far more liquid than a pod kit does. A 100ml shortfill lasting a week is normal at 60 watts. That is why sub ohm liquid is sold in 100ml bottles and why the mix and match shortfill deals matter more here than anywhere else.
