Pod Systems Explained - Refillable Pods vs Closed Loops

✍️ By Vape Specialist Goa 📅 Published: August 9, 2026 ⏱️ Reading Time: 6 mins

How Pod Systems Work

Pod systems are compact vape kits that use plastic pod cartridges instead of large glass tanks. They are powered by internal batteries and utilize smart sensors to activate when you inhale, making them highly portable.

Refillable vs Closed Pods

Open pod systems let you fill empty pods with your choice of nicotine salt e-liquid. Closed systems use pre-filled pods that you discard once empty. Open systems offer more flavor diversity and lower operating costs in Ponda and Vasco.

Coils and Ohm Resistance

Pods come with built-in or replaceable coils of different resistances. Lower resistance coils (0.6 ohm or 0.8 ohm) produce warmer vapor and more clouds. Higher resistance coils (1.0 ohm or 1.2 ohm) provide a tighter draw and are optimized for 50mg nic salts.

Refilling and Priming Coils

When refilling a pod, leave a tiny air gap at the top to prevent flooding. Let new pods saturate for 10 minutes. If you experience spitback, flick the pod downwards into a tissue paper to clear excess liquid.
