VOOPOO PnP Coil Compatibility: Which Coils Fit Your Kit

VOOPOO PnP coil compatibility comes down to one question: does your kit take original PnP coils or the newer PnP X coils? VOOPOO says the two don’t swap, so this guide shows which VOOPOO pods and tanks take each one. It also covers PnP coil resistance and wattage, as well as how to prime a new coil.

VOOPOO PnP coil compatibility chart

Start with your kit, since each one takes a single coil family. Here’s VOOPOO PnP coil compatibility for the VOOPOO kits, pods and tanks we sell, plus some older ones. A check means VOOPOO lists that family, and we’ve also linked what we stock:

First, the DRAG H40 Pro’s range starts at 0.3Ω, so the 0.15Ω and 0.2Ω PnP X coils are too low for it. Also, VOOPOO’s MTL PnP X pod and MTL Pod Tank take only the 0.3Ω and 0.6Ω coils, while the DTL versions take them all. Similarly, VOOPOO lists the 0.15Ω to 0.3Ω for the DTL VINCI pod and the 0.6Ω to 1.0Ω for the MTL one.

On a 510 box mod, however, the tank decides the coil, not the mod. For instance, VOOPOO says its UFORCE-X Tank II and PnP X Pod Tank fit any 510 mod. So an older DRAG 4 can run PnP X coils once you fit a UFORCE-X tank.

PnP vs PnP X coils

VOOPOO calls PnP X its 4th-generation coil platform. However, it says neither family fits the other’s devices. That is why VOOPOO PnP coil compatibility starts with the family, not the resistance.

The fit is different, too. PnP X coils use a directional push-fit design, so they only go in one way. Also, watch for these traps:

In short, VOOPOO coil compatibility depends on the name of your pod or tank, not just your kit. For a closer look at two PnP X kits, also read our DRAG S3 review and DRAG 6 review.

Pick your draw by resistance

The PnP coil resistance, measured in ohms (Ω), sets how a coil feels. A lower number gives a looser, cloudier draw, but it needs more power. A higher number gives a tighter draw, so it uses less battery.

PnP X coil ratings

Here’s VOOPOO’s draw and wattage rating for each PnP X coil:

MTL (mouth-to-lung) is the tightest draw, while DTL (direct-to-lung) is the most open, with RDL in between. At our store, though, the cloud coils lead by far: nearly 9 in 10 PnP X coil packs we sell are the 0.15Ω, 0.2Ω or 0.3Ω. The 0.3Ω alone is also about 1 in 3.

Original PnP coil ratings

Original PnP coils come in more versions. The VM and TW coils are mesh coils for DTL and RDL, while the TM2 and R2 are for MTL. Here are the ones we sell, with each PnP coil’s wattage range:

However, VOOPOO’s pages also list a lower range for some of these coils, such as 55W to 70W for the VM6. So go by the range printed on your coil’s box. Our customers lean toward clouds here, too: about half of the PnP coil packs we’ve sold are 0.15Ω or 0.2Ω coils, and the VM6 alone is about 1 in 4.

Your PnP coil resistance should also suit your e-liquid. For example, VOOPOO pairs the 0.6Ω, 0.8Ω and 1.0Ω PnP X coils with 50% VG nic salts, and the lower ones with higher-VG juice at 10mg or less. It also warns that TW coils have smaller wicking holes, so they don’t suit high-VG juice. Our freebase vs salt nicotine guide explains the difference, while our guide to PG and VG covers how thick a juice is. Apart from the limits in the chart, though, resistance doesn’t change VOOPOO PnP coil compatibility, so you can switch resistances in the same pod.

Set the power: PnP coil wattage

Each coil has a watt range, so VOOPOO’s advice is to start at the low end. For its VM coils, it warns that going over the range burns the cotton, while staying under it can flood the coil. So set your PnP coil wattage inside the range, then turn it up slowly.

Your kit’s top power matters, too. For example, the DRAG H40 Pro reaches 40W, which covers the PnP coil wattage of the 0.3Ω to 1.0Ω PnP X coils. The DRAG S3 reaches 60W, so it runs every PnP X coil, but only the bottom of the 0.15Ω coil’s range. So our DRAG S3 review suggests the 0.2Ω for clouds.

The box mods, on the other hand, have power to spare. The DRAG 5 goes up to 177W, while the DRAG 6 and VINCI Spark 220 go up to 220W, so all three run every PnP X coil at its full rating. On another 510 mod, however, check that the mod reaches your PnP coil wattage first.

How to change and prime a PnP coil

VOOPOO’s coil guide gives the same steps for all its pods and tanks, so here’s how to swap and prime a PnP coil or a PnP X coil:

1. Remove the pod or tank: take it off your device first.
2. Pull out the old coil: it slides straight out, because push-fit coils need no force, VOOPOO says.
3. Push in the new coil: line it up and press until it seats. Also, a PnP X coil fits one way only, and its base sits flush with the bottom of the pod.
4. Wet the cotton: then, to prime a PnP coil, add a few drops of e-liquid into its wick holes.
5. Fill and wait: fill the pod or tank to about two-thirds, then close the plug. Next, let it sit for 5 to 10 minutes to finish priming the PnP coil.
6. Start low: set the power at the low end of the coil’s range, then work up.

VOOPOO says to replace a coil once you notice a burnt taste, muted flavor, less vapor, leaking or dark e-liquid. It also rates each PnP X coil for up to 100ml of e-liquid in normal use, or about 20 refills of a 5ml pod. So prime every new PnP coil the same way before you vape.

The VOOPOO coils and kits we stock

Here’s what we carry right now. Since VOOPOO PnP coil compatibility runs by family, you can often keep your coils when you change kits.

Replacement coils

Need a spare VOOPOO pod or tank? We stock PnP X pods and the PnP X Pod Tank in DTL, since the MTL ones are out of stock. We also stock PnP Pod II pods in 5ml, VINCI PnP X pods and both UFORCE-X tanks.
