What Are The Best DTL Pod Kits In 2025?

Just because you’re after a DTL kit doesn’t mean you need to miss out on other ways to vape, right? The Vaporesso Xros Pro pod kit ticks all the boxes owing to its sturdy design, built-in 1200mAh battery, 5-30W power output and range of modes. But that’s not all! You’ll also be able to switch between DTL, RDTL and MTL vaping with ease, thanks to the 0.4 Ohm - 1.2 Ohm Vaporesso Xros pods.

We wouldn’t want you thinking that the versatility of this kit means compromising on vapour either! When using its handy Power Mode, this device will deliver the maximum output to your e-liquid, heating it faster to create the largest clouds of vapour possible - pair that with its adjustable airflow and this one’s as much a sub ohm device as any.

The GeekVape Aegis Boost III is a powerful kit that’s more than up for handling the knocks, drops, and falls of daily life thanks to its dust, shock, and water resistant design. Featuring a hefty 3000mAh built-in battery, most vapers can get a day's uninterrupted use before needing to recharge.

Prefer your vape to do the thinking? The Aegis Boost III offers an AS Chip 0.4-powered Smart Mode that automatically picks the best wattage for your coil. Or, you can take advantage of its multiple modes and customise your vape with the click of a button. For example, TC-TR mode lets you pick the precise temperature your coil will reach, and Memory Mode can store your preferred settings for later use.

Showing off Smok’s years of expertise, the Nord 5 vape kit delivers a compact, simple approach to sub ohm vaping. They back it up too! With a 2000mAh built-in battery that offers a 5-80W power output for added customisation, you might be surprised to know that this powerful kit is still a pocket-friendly option. Plus, you can choose a free Large Juice shortfill to get started!

Each Nord 5 pod is side-filling, which allows for mess-free topping up. The compatible RPM 3 coils feature a mesh build for improved vapour and flavour production. Two resistances are available and one of each is included with the kit so you can try them both and find your favourite. If you’re looking for a quick way to try sub ohm vaping, the Nord 5 is an ideal choice.

The Innokin CoolFire PZPulse more than earns its place on this list thanks to its built-in 2400mAh battery and max 80W output. Each kit comes with a 0.2 Ohm and 0.4 Ohm PZP coil for an authentic DTL vape right out of the box. Like experimenting with your vaping style? Well, Innokin has thought of that too, and this device is compatible with all Innokin PZP coils – from RDTL coils to DTL ones.

YSpeaking of which, the Innokin CoolFire PZPulse features a powerful smart chip and easy-to-use Smart Mode. This mode automatically selects the best wattage for your coil, so you can jump right in with vaping. No matter which coil you go for, this device pairs best with a 70% VG e-liquid.

The Innokin Gozee pod kit is the closest to a traditional sub ohm kit that you’ll find on this list. Alongside a large 2100mAh built-in battery, the Gozee manages to deliver a maximum power output of 60W from its colourful crystal-injection body. Plus, thanks to its simple navigation menu, you can tailor your draw and start vaping in just a few clicks!

The Gozee kit comes equipped with the Innokin Go Z tank, which combines the best features of both a pod and a tank. Like a pod, it’s made from durable plastic, and like a tank, it has an adjustable airflow and a 510 pin. The Go Z is compatible with the Zenith coil range, offering you the flexibility to choose between MTL, RDTL and DTL vaping styles.

If you’re looking for a DTL pod kit that can slip easily into your pocket, check out the Argus G2 from Voopoo. Its sleek design houses a 1000mAh battery that can last most vapers all day, and it delivers up to 30W of power. This kit is easy to use due to its simple LED display and can be button or inhale activated based on your preference.

But most importantly this kit is very customisable, thanks to its multiple power modes and range of compatible Argus pods with built-in coils. For a DTL inhale with large amounts of vapour, choose the 0.4 Ohm pod and use Smart Mode or Super Mode for a higher power output. Pair this pod with a 70% VG e-liquid for the best results. Or pick a higher resistance pod and lower power output and experience an authentic MTL vape.

If you’re looking for a customisable, pocket-friendly DTL kit, the Luxe XR Max pod vape is the one for you. It contains a powerful 2800mAh built-in battery that’ll last all day, plus, its 5-80W adjustable power output allows you to balance flavour and vapour production at the click of a button.

The Luxe XR Max supports MTL, RDTL and DTL vaping styles, just choose from the range of GTX coils and Smart mode will automatically deliver the right amount of power. The mesh build of each coil boasts a larger surface area which will improve flavour by heating e-liquid faster and more evenly. You can also adjust the airflow slider for a tighter or looser inhale for an extra layer of customisation.

Next up is the Drag S2 pod kit from Voopoo. It comes with everything you need to get started with DTL vaping – including 0.2 Ohm and 0.3 Ohm coils. This device is powered by a built-in 2500mAh battery that delivers a 5-60W power output, ideal for a DTL inhale. With multiple power modes available, like Eco Mode to extend battery life and RBA Mode for advanced wattage control, customising your Drag S2 is easy.

Plus, this kit is compatible with all PNP X coils, allowing you to shake up your vaping style whenever you like just by changing your coil and power output. These coils boast a mesh design for improved vapour production and an extra boost of flavour.

The Aspire Pixo pod kit is surprisingly versatile for its size, capable of supporting not only DTL vaping, but RDTL and MTL vaping too. It delivers a 5 - 30W variable output that can be adjusted automatically thanks to its powerful Smart Mode, or adjusted manually with Variable Wattage Mode if you’re looking to customise your vape. Plus, this device features a 1100mAh battery that can be recharged with a USB-C cable in just 35 minutes.

Each Aspire Pixo kit includes both a 0.4 Ohm pod and a 1.0 Ohm pod that have built-in mesh coils, which means they’ll heat your e-liquid evenly for improved flavour production. Both pods can be used with a 50% VG e-liquid for a RDTL or MTL vape, but, if it’s a DTL inhale you’re looking for, the 0.4 Ohm pod can also be paired with a 70% VG e-liquid to deliver a larger amount of vapour.

Last, but certainly not least, is the Lost Vape Thelema Elite S vape kit, an ideal option if you want a DTL vape that can fit in your pocket. Featuring a 1400mAh battery, this device has multiple power modes to make customising your kit easy. Choose Eco Mode for a small amount of vapour and extended battery life, or Boost Mode for a higher power output and larger amount of vapour. Plus, Smart Mode will automatically pick the best output for your coil, for a low-maintenance vape.

Although the included 0.6 Ohm pod is best suited for MTL and RDTL vaping, the Thelema Elite S can also be used with a 0.3 Ohm E Plus pod (sold separately) for sub ohm vaping. This pod will produce a large amount of vapour when paired with a 70% VG e-liquid (or higher), making it great for a DTL inhale. No matter which pod you go for, each includes a built-in mesh coil and a side-filling design to make topping up your e-liquid simple.
