Pods under 0.49Ω are outside its range.
How to Set Up the dotPod S

- Fit the pod: push it back into the device.
- Set the airflow: adjust it to the draw you like.
- Vape: draw on the mouthpiece; the lights animate while it fires.
- Charge it: use the USB-C port; you can vape while it charges.
Who the dotPod S Is For
The dotmod dotPod S suits vapers who want a slim, simple pod system with a leather finish that sets its own power. For adjustable power up to 35W and a screen, see the dotMod dotPod Pro.
Good to know: dotPod replacement pods have the coil built in, so you replace the whole pod. dotmod lists the same pods for the dotPod Nano, Pro, Lite and Go.
