OXVA VPrime 2 Pod Kit

TL;DR: The OXVA VPrime 2 Pod Kit is a refillable 60W pod mod with the biggest battery OXVA has ever fitted, a 3400mAh cell, for £24.99. Best for shortfill and cloud-focused vapers who want DTL power without a bulky box mod. Not ideal for anyone who only wants a tight, cigarette-style draw; a small MTL pod suits that better.

• The OXVA VPrime 2 has a 3400mAh built-in battery, the largest in the OXVA range.
• The OXVA VPrime 2 fires from 5W to 60W with Boost and Eco modes.
• The kit includes two 2ml Unitech 3.0 dual mesh pods: 0.4 ohm (28 to 38W) and 0.6 ohm (20 to 25W).
• The OXVA VPrime 2 has a 0.98-inch colour screen with customisable themes.
• The OXVA VPrime 2 supports auto-draw and fire-button activation with adjustable airflow.
• The OXVA VPrime 2 charges via USB-C and comes in six colours.

The OXVA VPrime 2 Pod Kit is built for the vaper whose pod kit keeps dying by mid-afternoon. Its 3400mAh battery is a third bigger than the original VPrime's, and up to 60W of output and Unitech 3.0 dual mesh pods deliver the warm, dense vapour of a sub-ohm kit (sub-ohm means coil resistance below 1 ohm, producing more vapour) in a hand-friendly device. Click a pod in, and the smart chip reads it and sets the right wattage automatically.

Key Specs Customers Check

• Battery: 3400mAh built-in. A full day of heavy use, around two days at moderate use on the 0.6 ohm pod.
• Output: 5 to 60W with Boost and Eco modes. Boost prioritises vapour; Eco stretches time between charges.
• Pods: 2ml Unitech 3.0 dual mesh (UK TPD). Two coils in one pod for richer flavour and longer pod life.
• Resistances in the box: 0.4 ohm (28 to 38W) and 0.6 ohm (20 to 25W). The 0.4 comes pre-installed for an open draw; the 0.6 suits nic salts.
• Screen: 0.98-inch colour display. Battery, wattage and resistance at a glance, with switchable themes.
• Activation: auto-draw and fire button. Inhale and it fires, even at DTL power.
• Airflow: adjustable ring. Move between an open lung inhale and a more restricted draw.
• Charging: USB-C fast charging. Tops up quickly and supports vaping while plugged in.

Pick Your Inhale: DTL, RDL or MTL

DTL (direct to lung) means breathing vapour straight into the lungs; RDL (restricted direct lung) is the same motion through a tighter draw; MTL (mouth to lung) is the tight, cigarette-like puff. The pre-installed 0.4 ohm pod at 28 to 38W gives an open DTL or RDL draw with big, warm vapour. The 0.6 ohm pod at 20 to 25W tightens things into RDL territory and pairs well with nicotine salts. Closing the airflow ring restricts the draw further towards MTL, though anyone who only ever wants a very tight draw is better served by a dedicated MTL pod kit.

Key Features

• Biggest battery in the OXVA range: 3400mAh removes the midday recharge that kills most 60W pod kits.
• Unitech 3.0 dual mesh coils: a U-shaped airflow path over two mesh coils for stronger flavour and longer pod life than the original VPrime's Unitech 2.0.
• Smart pod detection: the chip sets the recommended wattage for whichever pod is fitted.
• Auto-draw at full power: the VPrime line pioneered draw activation on a DTL device; it fires on inhale, no button needed.
• Boost and Eco modes: choose intensity or battery efficiency at a button press.
• Top-fill 2ml pods: refill through the fill port without removing the pod.

Coils and E-Liquid Pairing

The 0.4 ohm pod is made for 70/30 (VG-heavy) shortfills at 3 to 6mg freebase: thicker liquid, more vapour. The 0.6 ohm pod is happiest with 50/50 e-liquids and 10mg or 20mg nic salts (a smoother form of nicotine suited to tighter draws), the right pairing for ex-smokers who want a stronger hit without harshness. Avoid 20mg salts in the 0.4 ohm pod; the nicotine delivery is far too strong at DTL volumes. Match your pod from the VOS range of nic salts and shortfill e-liquids.

Battery, Pod Life and Running Cost

Real-world testing puts battery life at around two days of moderate vaping on the 0.6 ohm pod and a full day of heavy use on the 0.4 ohm. Most dual mesh pods last one to two weeks before flavour fades, and Unitech 3.0 is designed to stretch that further, so a typical week costs one pod plus a bottle or two of e-liquid, a fraction of what a week of disposables cost before the ban. Keep spares from OXVA replacement pods.

Compatibility and Refills

This is the VPrime 2, not the original VPrime: it steps up from 2600mAh to 3400mAh, from Unitech 2.0 to Unitech 3.0 dual mesh pods, and to a larger 0.98-inch screen at the same 60W ceiling. Some retail listings still quote the old 2600mAh figure; 3400mAh is correct for this device. The kit takes OXVA VPrime dual mesh pods, with 0.4 ohm and 0.6 ohm supplied and further resistances sold separately as the range rolls out. Versus the original VPrime, the VPrime 2 is the straightforward pick: more battery and newer coils for similar money. It sits apart from the smaller, MTL-focused Xlim Pro line as the power option among OXVA vape kits.

What's in the Box

• 1 x OXVA VPrime 2 device
• 1 x 2ml Unitech 3.0 pod, 0.4 ohm (pre-installed)
• 1 x 2ml Unitech 3.0 pod, 0.6 ohm
• 1 x USB-C cable
• 1 x user manual

How to Set Up the VPrime 2

1. Open the fill port on the 0.4 ohm pod and fill with e-liquid, stopping just below the top.
2. Wait 5 to 10 minutes so the cotton fully soaks; skipping this burns the coil on the first puff.
3. Click the pod in; it seats magnetically and the screen shows the detected resistance and wattage.
4. Press the fire button five times to switch on if the device is off.
5. Set the airflow ring: open for DTL, tighter for a restricted draw.
6. Inhale to fire, or hold the button while you draw.

How to Make It Last Longer

• Prime every new pod for 5 to 10 minutes before the first puff; a scorched coil never recovers.
• Refill before empty. Firing a near-dry pod is the fastest route to a burnt taste.
• Avoid chain vaping at 60W; give the wick a few seconds between draws to re-soak.
• Use Eco mode on long days to stretch the 3400mAh further.
• Charge little and often rather than running the battery flat.

Best Colours

Black Carbon and Shard Black are the discreet picks most buyers reach for first, ideal for ex-smokers who want the kit to disappear into a pocket or work bag. Shard Gold suits vapers in their 30s to 50s who treat their kit as a daily carry worth showing off. The Mirage Blue, Mirage Purple and Mirage Pink finishes carry a colour-shifting metallic effect for collectors and anyone who prefers a device that stands out.

Price and Value

At £24.99, down from £29.99, the VPrime 2 sits at the lower end of current UK pricing for this kit and well under a comparable box mod setup once tank and coils are counted. One pod and a bottle of liquid a week against disposables sees it pay for itself in the first month. It also joins vapes with a screen, delivering vape mod power without mod complexity.

OXVA VPrime 2 Pod Kit FAQs

Is the OXVA VPrime 2 MTL or DTL?

Both, with a lean towards DTL. The 0.4 ohm pod gives an open direct-lung draw, the 0.6 ohm tightens it to restricted direct-lung, and closing the airflow restricts it further. For a very tight MTL-only draw, choose a dedicated MTL pod kit instead.

What is the difference between the VPrime and the VPrime 2?

The VPrime 2 has a 3400mAh battery against 2600mAh, upgraded Unitech 3.0 dual mesh pods against Unitech 2.0, and a larger 0.98-inch screen. Both fire up to 60W with auto-draw and button activation.

Do original VPrime pods fit the VPrime 2?

Retail listings state the VPrime 2 works with OXVA VPrime dual mesh pods, but OXVA has not yet published a full compatibility table. The safe route is pods listed for the VPrime 2 specifically: Unitech 3.0 in 0.4 ohm and 0.6 ohm.

What e-liquid should I use in the VPrime 2?

70/30 shortfills at 3 to 6mg in the 0.4 ohm pod; 50/50 liquids or 10mg to 20mg nic salts in the 0.6 ohm pod. Do not run 20mg salts in the 0.4 ohm; the hit is overwhelming at that vapour volume.

How long does the VPrime 2 battery last?

Around a full day of heavy vaping on the 0.4 ohm pod and up to two days of moderate vaping on the 0.6 ohm. Eco mode extends this further. Recharging is via USB-C fast charging.

Can I vape while the VPrime 2 is charging?

Yes. It supports pass-through vaping over USB-C, useful on heavy days when even 3400mAh runs low.

Why does my new pod taste burnt?

Almost always because the coil fired before the cotton soaked through. Fill, wait 5 to 10 minutes, then start at the lower end of the pod's wattage range. A pod that has been dry-fired hard will not recover; replace it.

Is the VPrime 2 pod really only 2ml?

Yes. UK TPD rules cap refillable pods at 2ml, so every VPrime 2 pod sold in the UK is the 2ml version. Larger figures on global sites refer to non-UK stock.
