Which Innokin vape or pod kit is best for a beginner in New Zealand?

If you’re new to vaping, Innokin’s starter kits like the Innokin Endura or Klypse pod kit are popular for their easy setup and simple maintenance. These are great for mouth-to-lung (MTL) vaping, which feels similar to a cigarette. For a more advanced experience or direct-to-lung (DTL) vaping, check out models like the Innokin Kroma or Sceptre range. Narrow down your choice based on whether you prefer a tight MTL draw or a bigger DTL cloud.

How do I know which Innokin pods or coils I should buy as replacements?

Always match your device model to the coils or pods listed—each Innokin vape uses specific compatible pods or coils. Visit the product page and check the compatibility info, or look on your device or original packaging for the exact series name. If you’re still unsure, contact Shosha support with your device details for guidance before purchase.

What e-liquid should I use with my Innokin vape – nic salts or freebase?

For most Innokin MTL pod kits and starter kits, nicotine salts (nic salts) with a 50/50 VG/PG ratio work best, offering a smoother throat hit and faster nicotine satisfaction. If your device supports RDL or DTL vaping, you can use freebase e-liquids with higher VG—check your kit’s coil recommendations for max VG percentage. Always double-check the product listing to confirm the best e-liquid type for your Innokin.

How do I charge my Innokin vape, and is USB-C charging supported?

Many newer Innokin devices, like the Klypse, support convenient USB-C charging—check your model’s details to confirm. Always use the original charging cable and avoid overnight charging to extend battery life. If you’re unsure, look on your device or in the manual for charging port info. Replace cables if damaged and charge on a flat, dry surface for safety.

How do I set up my Innokin pod kit to avoid burnt hits or leaks?

When you first install a new coil or pod, fill the pod and let it sit for 5–10 minutes so the cotton can soak up your e-liquid (this is called priming). Take a few gentle ‘primer’ puffs without pressing the fire button, if possible. Don’t overfill your pod, and regularly clean any e-liquid from the contacts to prevent leaks or poor connections. Replace coils or pods at the first sign of burnt taste or reduced flavour for best performance.
