Novo 5 Pods That Fit
SMOK says its Novo 5 pod series fits the Novo 5, Novo 6 and Novo 6 Ultra:
| Novo 5 pod | Capacity | SMOK best power |
|---|---|---|
| Meshed 0.7Ω MTL (two in the box) | 2ml | none given |
| Meshed 0.6Ω | 3ml | 18W |
| Dual-ohm: dual meshed 0.4Ω or single meshed 0.8Ω | 3ml | none given |
All three fill from the top. We sell Novo 5 pods in all three versions.
How to Set Up the Novo 5
- Charge it: plug the Type-C cable from the box into the Type-C port.
- Fill the pod: take the pod out, remove the top cap, fill through the port and put the cap back on.
- Wait: let a new pod stand for a few minutes so the cotton soaks through.
- Insert it: push the pod back into the Novo 5.
- Set it: set the power with the adjust button and the airflow with the air-inlet ring.
- Vape: draw on the mouthpiece or press the power button.
Who the Novo 5 Is For
The SMOK Novo 5 suits vapers who want a small pod kit with a screen, power up to 30W and adjustable airflow, for MTL with the pods in the box. For a 1700mAh battery and up to 40W, see the Novo 6.
Good to know: The 0.7Ω pods in the box are SMOK’s MTL pods. SMOK’s newer 0.6Ω and dual-ohm Novo 5 pods hold 3ml and fit the Novo 5 too.
