XROS Pod Compatibility: Which Vaporesso Pods Fit Your Kit

XROS pod compatibility is simple, says Vaporesso: if your device has XROS in its name, current XROS pods fit it. That holds for all the Vaporesso XROS kits, from the original XROS to the XROS 6. What changes from pod to pod is the XROS pod resistance, the XROS pod wattage and the XROS pod capacity, so this guide covers all three.

XROS pod compatibility chart

Every XROS kit takes XROS pods. Vaporesso says every XROS pod shares the same shape and magnetic connection, so XROS pod compatibility doesn’t depend on how old your kit is. Its chart also marks the 0.6Ω, 0.8Ω, 1.0Ω and 1.2Ω pods as a fit for every XROS device. As a result, new pods work in old kits, and old pods work in new ones.

Here are all the Vaporesso XROS kits, newest first. A check means Vaporesso lists that pod for the kit. We’ve also linked each kit we stock:

The 0.4Ω column is the only one with gaps, because Vaporesso’s own pages don’t agree on it. Its store, for instance, says every XROS takes pods from 0.4Ω to 1.2Ω. However, its pod page lists the 0.4Ω only for the XROS 4 series and the first XROS PRO, while its chart calls it the XROS PRO 2’s own pod. The newer kits above list it on their own pages, so they get a check. For an older kit, though, check its manual before you buy a 0.4Ω pod.

So if you vape an older XROS 3, for example, you can buy the same 0.6Ω to 1.2Ω pods as someone with a new XROS 6.

XROS pod cross compatibility

XROS pods also cross over between coil versions, sizes and generations. Here’s what fits an XROS kit, as well as what doesn’t:

In other words, XROS pods only fit XROS devices. Other Vaporesso lines use their own pods, so the LUXE X3 and LUXE XR MAX 2, for example, take LUXE pods instead. Our XROS 6 vs Caliburn G5 comparison shows one more case, since the Caliburn G5 uses Uwell GPP pods. For a third-party pod, then, the safe choice is a genuine Vaporesso pod instead. You can also browse every replacement pod we carry by brand.

Pick your draw by resistance

The XROS pod resistance, measured in ohms (Ω), sets how the pod feels. A lower number gives a looser, warmer draw, but it also needs more power. A higher number gives a tighter draw, so it uses less battery. Here’s how Vaporesso rates each pod, along with its best XROS pod wattage:

Vaporesso doesn’t rate the 0.7Ω pod, though, so its rating comes from vape retailers’ specs that agree. The rest, however, are Vaporesso’s own numbers. Resistance doesn’t affect XROS pod compatibility, either, so you can switch between them in the same kit.

At our store, meanwhile, the 0.8Ω is the clear favorite. It makes up about 4 in 10 XROS pod packs we’ve sold, while the 0.6Ω comes next at about 3 in 10. Vaporesso also suggests the 0.8Ω or 1.0Ω if you’re new to vaping.

Your XROS pod resistance matters for your e-liquid, too. Vaporesso says XROS pods work with both freebase and nic salt e-liquid. For stronger nic salt, though, it points to the higher-resistance XROS pods, such as the 1.0Ω or 1.2Ω. Not sure which kind you use? Our freebase vs salt nicotine guide explains the difference. Our guide to PG and VG also covers how thick a juice is.

Set the power: XROS pod wattage

Each pod has a best XROS pod wattage, but you won’t always set it by hand. On the XROS 6, XROS 5, XROS PRO 2 and XROS 4 Nano, you pick a power mode, such as ECO, NORMAL or POWER, instead. That way, you can make each puff softer or stronger without choosing a number.

The 0.4Ω pod works a little differently, though. With it, those four kits let you set the XROS pod wattage yourself, in 0.5W steps. On the XROS 5, for example, that range runs from 15W to 30W. So with a 0.4Ω pod, you can set it right at Vaporesso’s 25W rating. The XROS 5 Nano’s manual also says you can adjust the power with a 0.4Ω pod, using the + and – icons on its touch screen.

The XROS 6 MINI and XROS 5 Mini have no screen. Vaporesso rates the XROS 6 MINI for up to 30W, but it doesn’t list a wattage for the XROS 5 Mini. On any XROS kit, though, the XROS pod resistance is still the main way to pick your draw.

XROS pod capacity: 2ml or 3ml

XROS pod capacity is either 2ml or 3ml. Vaporesso says the 2ml pods share the same shell, resistances, magnetic fit and coil tech as the 3ml ones. So size doesn’t change XROS pod compatibility: a 2ml pod fits any XROS device, and so does a 3ml pod.

We stock COREX 3.0 pods in both sizes. The 0.4Ω, 0.6Ω and 0.8Ω come in 2ml and 3ml, while the 1.0Ω and 1.2Ω come in 2ml. Our 0.7Ω pod, on the other hand, is an older COREX 2.0 mesh pod with a 3ml XROS pod capacity. COREX is Vaporesso’s coil heating tech, and Vaporesso says COREX 3.0 improves flavor and pod life. Still, its store says COREX 2.0 and COREX 3.0 pods both fit every XROS device.

The Vaporesso XROS kits we stock

We carry seven Vaporesso XROS kits right now. Thanks to XROS pod compatibility, they all take the same pods, so you can pick by battery, screen and size. First, here are five of them, with specs from each kit’s own page. The two Nano kits follow.

XROS kits with a screen

Two more kits have screens, too. The XROS 5 Nano has a 1.09-inch touch screen and a 1600mAh battery, while the XROS 4 Nano has a 1.3-inch round screen and a 1350mAh battery. Both come with a 0.8Ω pod, plus a 0.4Ω or 0.6Ω pod, depending on the kit version.

XROS kits without a screen

Whichever kit you use, follow the FDA’s tips to help avoid vape battery fires when you charge it.

XROS pod compatibility FAQ

Compatibility comes from Vaporesso’s own XROS chart. Pod ratings and the best XROS pod wattage for each one also come from Vaporesso, except for the 0.7Ω, and kit specs come from each kit’s page on our site. Sales shares come from our paid orders, and stock was checked on the date we published this guide. Nicotine is addictive. You must be 21 or older to buy vape products, under the federal Tobacco 21 law. Some states limit vape sales and shipping, so check our vape shipping guide before you order.
