Overview of the VooPoo TPP Replacement Pods

These are replacement pods for VooPoo devices built around the TPP pod platform, sold here as a pack of two with a stated capacity of 5ml per pod. TPP is VooPoo's tank-style pod format. Rather than a slim cartridge that clips onto a pen-shaped stick, the pod is a chunkier refillable reservoir with a mesh coil built into the base. In practice that means more liquid per fill, a warmer and denser vapour than a basic cotton-wick pod, and a setup that suits people who want something closer to a small sub-ohm tank without carrying a full mod and a handful of loose coils.

Because the coil is part of the pod, replacing the pod replaces the coil in the same move. There is no separate coil to buy, no cotton to wick by hand, and no tank to strip and clean. You pull the old pod, push in the new one, fill it, wait a few minutes for the mesh to saturate, and vape. That convenience is the main reason refillable pod systems took so much ground from traditional tank kits across the UK, and it is also why a spare pack of two is worth keeping in a drawer. Running out of coil on a Friday evening with the shops shut is a more common problem than most vapers admit.

This page is written to help you decide whether the pack suits you before you order. It covers what is in the box, how the pods perform, how the flavour comes across, how they are built, how the mesh coil works, how to match nicotine strength and e-liquid to the coil, how to fit and prime them, how to fix the usual problems, and how the cost compares with buying a full replacement kit or switching to disposables. Where we are certain of a specification we state it. Where the answer depends on the exact variant or on which VooPoo device you own, we say so and tell you where to check rather than guess.

The short version:

• Pack of two replacement pods, each with a built-in mesh coil
• Stated capacity of 5ml per pod (read the UK note in the next section)
• Refillable with your own e-liquid, so you choose flavour and nicotine strength
• Only works in a compatible VooPoo TPP device, not as a standalone vape
• No battery in the pod, so it is a consumable accessory, not an electrical product on its own

What Is in the Pack, Pod Capacity and UK Limits

You receive two replacement pods in each pack. Each pod is listed at 5ml, so the pack gives you 10ml of total reservoir across the pair. The mesh coil is already installed in each pod, and nothing else is needed beyond a compatible VooPoo TPP device and a bottle of e-liquid. There is no charger, no battery and no e-liquid in the box, because the pod is a consumable part and not a standalone vape.

A UK point to check before you order. Under the rules that apply to consumer vaping products in the UK, refillable tanks and pods are limited to 2ml of capacity, nicotine e-liquid bottles are limited to 10ml, and nicotine strength is capped at 20mg/ml. The 5ml figure in this product title is the nominal size of the pod as VooPoo describes it. Pod sizes can differ between regional editions of the same product, so look at the capacity printed on the variant you select and on the packaging when it arrives, and message us before you buy if you are unsure which edition you need. We would rather answer that question up front than have you discover a mismatch after delivery.

What each pack contains:

• 2 x TPP replacement pods with built-in mesh coil
• A fill port on each pod, closed with a silicone seal
• Retail packaging that shows the coil resistance for the variant you chose

Four options sit in this product family. On this style of pod, the versions usually differ in coil resistance, which changes how the pod feels to draw on and which wattage and nicotine strength suit it. Check the variant name and the figure printed on the packaging, and pick the version that matches how you like to vape rather than the one that happens to be cheapest. The nicotine strength section further down explains how to pair each type of coil with the right liquid.

Two things that are not in the pack and are worth planning for: the e-liquid itself, and a way of disposing of used pods responsibly. The pods contain a small metal coil and cotton, so they are best treated as electrical and plastic waste rather than dropped in the general bin. We cover that in the care and recycling section.

Performance and Vapour Delivery

The pod's job is to turn liquid into vapour consistently at the wattage your device sends to it. A mesh coil uses a flat, perforated strip of metal as the heating element, which touches the cotton across a much larger area than a single round wire does. The practical result is faster ramp-up and more even heating. You press the button or take a draw, the coil is at working temperature in a fraction of a second, and the first puff of a session tastes much the same as the tenth.

What to expect in use:

• Vapour volume: noticeably denser than a small cotton-wick pod, though not on the level of a full sub-ohm tank run at high wattage. Think warm and substantial rather than cloud-chasing.
• Draw feel: this depends on the resistance of the variant. Higher-resistance versions give a tighter, cooler, more cigarette-like draw. Lower-resistance versions open the airflow and deliver a looser, more direct inhale.
• Throat hit: driven mostly by your nicotine type and strength rather than by the pod. Nicotine salt liquids feel smoother at 10 to 20mg/ml, while freebase liquids at 3 to 6mg/ml feel crisper at a comparable effective dose.
• Consistency across the fill: mesh coils stay steady until the liquid drops to the last fraction of a millilitre, at which point you can get a dry, hot-tasting draw if you leave the refill too late.

On longevity, a full 5ml fill gives roughly 800 to 1,500 draws as a planning figure, depending on wattage, draw length and the thickness of your liquid. That is an estimate rather than a lab number. Higher wattage, longer draws and thick high-VG liquids push consumption toward the lower end of that range, while gentle low-wattage use stretches a fill further. For a moderate daily vaper, one fill commonly lasts a day or two, and a pod is commonly good for one to three weeks of regular use before the coil starts to lose flavour.

One honest caveat: the pod cannot make up for a device running outside its sensible range. If the pod and the device are mismatched, or the battery is low enough that the output sags, the draw will feel thin and the flavour muted regardless of how good the coil is. Keep the device charged, stay inside the wattage range on the packaging, and the pod will do what it was designed to do.

Flavour Profile and How the Coil Shapes It

These pods do not come with a flavour, because you add your own e-liquid. What the pod contributes is the way that liquid is rendered. Mesh coils have a reputation for flavour clarity, and it is deserved: because the heating surface is wide and the temperature is even, the coil vaporises liquid cleanly without the scorched notes that can creep in when a single wire runs too hot in one spot. Sweet profiles such as fruit, dessert and candy come across rounded and recognisable, and menthol or cooling blends keep their crispness rather than turning flat.

How different liquid styles tend to behave in a TPP pod:

• Fruit and ice: bright and clean. These are the safest starting point because they are forgiving of slightly higher wattage.
• Desserts and custards: rich, but heavy on sweeteners. They taste excellent in a fresh pod and also shorten the time before the coil starts to darken, so expect to replace the pod a little sooner.
• Tobacco and nutty profiles: work well at lower wattage on a higher-resistance variant, where a slower, warmer draw lets the base notes develop.
• Menthol and mint: stay sharp at lower to mid power. Pushed hard they can feel harsh on the throat, so lower the output rather than lowering the cooling agent.
• Bakery and heavily sweetened blends: give the richest flavour, and the fastest coil build-up.

A fresh pod needs a short settling period. For the first few draws the cotton is still taking up liquid, and the flavour can taste slightly papery or muted. Give it three to five minutes after filling and take two or three gentle, low-power draws before you judge the pod. Most of the complaints we see about flavour in new pods are a rushed first draw on dry cotton, not a fault.

If you like to change flavour often, remember that cotton holds on to the last liquid you used. Switching from a strong menthol to a delicate fruit in the same pod usually leaves a ghost of the first flavour. If you rotate flavours regularly, use one pod per flavour family and keep the spare pod of the pair for your second favourite, which also makes a pack of two feel more useful.

Design and Build Quality

The TPP pod is a clear-sided or partly transparent reservoir with a moulded plastic body, a metal-and-cotton coil unit at the base, and a mouthpiece section on top. It is a purely mechanical part with no electronics inside, so the build quality questions are about the plastic, the seals and the contacts rather than about circuitry. Here is what to check when you take a pod out of the packaging.

• Body and window: the plastic should be clean and free of cracks, and the reservoir should show a clear liquid level so you can see when it is time to refill. A clear window is genuinely useful, because mesh coils dislike being run dry.
• Fill-port seal: the silicone seal should sit flush and press back into place firmly after filling. A seal that does not close fully is the most common cause of a weeping pod.
• Contact points: the metal connectors at the base should look clean and bright. Any residue from a previous fill, or a trace of oil, can interrupt contact with the device and trigger a firing error.
• Airflow openings: check that they are clear. Blocked openings give a tight, muffled draw that is often mistaken for a failed coil.
• Mouthpiece fit: it should be snug and aligned with no wobble, since a loose mouthpiece lets air and liquid pass where they should not.

The overall feel is of a sturdy, moderately sized component built to survive a coat pocket or a rucksack, though not a drop onto concrete. Like any pod with a large reservoir, it pays to carry the device upright and avoid leaving a full pod on a sunny car dashboard. Heat expands air inside the reservoir and pushes liquid out through the airflow path.

Fit between pod and device is the part that matters most. The pod should click or slide into place with a firm, even seat and no gap. If a pod sits slightly proud of the device, that is usually dirt at the connection point or a pod from a different platform that looks similar. TPP pods are made for devices designed for them, so confirm compatibility on your device's manual or on the product page before ordering. Where there is any doubt, send us the device model and we will tell you whether this pod suits it.

Mesh Coil Technology Inside the Pod

The coil built into each TPP pod is a mesh coil. Instead of a wire wrapped round a cotton wick, a mesh coil uses a thin sheet of metal with a fine grid of holes, folded or curved to wrap the cotton. Liquid soaks through the cotton into a large heated area, and vapour forms across the whole surface at the same time. That is why the technology is associated with quick response, even heating and good flavour definition.

The things that matter to you as the person using it:

• Resistance: measured in ohms and printed on the pod or packaging. A lower resistance draws more power from the battery, heats faster and produces more vapour. A higher resistance runs cooler and gives a tighter draw that is easier on the battery.
• Wattage range: each coil has a recommended power window. Staying inside it protects the cotton and keeps the flavour clean. The window is printed on the packaging for your variant, and your device's manual will show how to set it.
• Wicking: thin liquids with a higher PG share wick faster, which suits tighter-draw, higher-resistance coils. Thicker high-VG liquids wick more slowly, so they suit lower-resistance coils with larger liquid inlets.
• Coil life: the main enemies are sweeteners, dry hits and excessive wattage. A pod treated gently commonly lasts one to three weeks of regular use, and a pod run hard with a dessert liquid may fade in less than one.

Priming matters more than anything else. A mesh coil with unsaturated cotton heats up and burns the cotton in seconds, and the damage is permanent. The routine is simple: fill the pod, let it stand for at least three to five minutes, take a few draws at low power with the fire button not held, and only then step up to your usual wattage. Skipping this step is the single most common reason a brand-new pod tastes burnt.

Mesh also tolerates a wider range of liquids than the thinner, older wire coils did. Nicotine salt liquids, freebase liquids and thicker 70VG blends can all work, as long as the resistance and wattage are matched sensibly. The one category we would steer you away from is very thick, heavily sweetened shortfill liquids in a high-resistance variant, where wicking can lag behind the heat and the result is a dry, scratchy hit.

Device Power, Battery and Charging

The pod has no battery, so all of the power comes from your VooPoo device. That has three practical consequences. First, battery life is a property of your device and its mAh rating rather than of the pod, so check your device's specification for the capacity. Second, the pod's resistance affects how quickly the battery drains. Third, a weak battery directly affects vapour quality, because a device that cannot hold its output gives a cooler, thinner draw.

How resistance interacts with battery life:

• Lower-resistance variants pull more current and drain the battery faster. On a mid-sized built-in battery, expect to charge daily with regular use.
• Higher-resistance variants sip power, so the same battery can last noticeably longer between charges.
• Higher wattage settings on any variant shorten battery life and shorten coil life together.

Charging guidance for the device the pod sits in:

• Use the cable supplied with the device or a reputable replacement. A cheap, unmarked cable can charge slowly and in some cases unsafely.
• Charge on a hard, flat, non-flammable surface, and not under a pillow or on a sofa cushion.
• Do not leave the device charging unattended for long periods overnight if you can avoid it.
• Take the pod out and wipe the contacts if you see any residue before you charge.
• Stop using any device that has become swollen, hot to the touch, or damaged around the battery area.

A small but useful habit: charge the device when you refill the pod. They are both quick jobs, they happen at similar intervals for most people, and tying the two together prevents the situation where you are at the end of the pod with an empty battery or at the end of the battery with a full pod.

When you eventually retire the device, it contains a lithium battery and must go to an electrical recycling point rather than the household bin. The pods themselves contain no battery, but we still recommend recycling them through the same route, which we cover later on this page.

Choosing Nicotine Strength and E-Liquid for These Pods

This is the section that decides whether you enjoy the pod or give up on it after a week, so it is worth reading properly. Because the pod is refillable, nicotine strength is your choice rather than the pack's. In the UK, nicotine e-liquid is capped at 20mg/ml, and bottles are capped at 10ml, which applies to refill liquids and also to the liquid inside disposables. Everything below sits within those limits.

The two things to match are the coil resistance and the type of nicotine:

• Higher-resistance variant, lower wattage: pair with nicotine salt liquid at 10mg/ml or 20mg/ml. Nic salts are smooth at higher strengths and are designed for the tight, cooler draw these coils give. Start at 10mg/ml if you are a lighter smoker or already used to vaping, and 20mg/ml if you are coming straight from cigarettes.
• Lower-resistance variant, higher wattage: pair with freebase nicotine at 3mg/ml or 6mg/ml, ideally in a higher-VG liquid. Nic salts at high strength in a high-power sub-ohm style setup tend to be harsh, because you inhale far more liquid per draw.
• Middle of the range: a 50/50 or 60/40 VG/PG liquid at 6mg/ml freebase, or a 10mg/ml nic salt, is a sensible middle ground if you are unsure.

Rules of thumb that save a lot of trial and error:

• If your throat feels scratchy or you cough, the strength or the wattage is too high. Drop one of them, not both.
• If you feel unsatisfied and keep vaping constantly, the strength is probably too low for your habit.
• If you feel light-headed or slightly sick, you are taking in too much nicotine. Reduce the strength or take fewer draws.
• Do not stack a high-strength nic salt on a high-wattage low-resistance setup. That combination delivers a large dose per puff.

On liquid choice, pick a reputable UK-sold brand with clear labelling, a batch number and a child-resistant cap. Avoid unlabelled bottles, and never add flavour concentrates or other substances to a liquid yourself. If you have never vaped before and are not currently a smoker, we would not recommend starting on nicotine at all. If you are weaning down, a nicotine-free liquid in the same pod is a legitimate option, and the pod works just as well with it.

Who These Pods Suit and Who Should Look Elsewhere

The pack makes the most sense for a specific kind of vaper. Here is an honest breakdown.

These pods are a good fit if you:

• Already own a compatible VooPoo TPP device and want to carry on using it
• Prefer to choose your own e-liquid, flavour and strength rather than being locked to one
• Want mesh-coil flavour and a respectable vapour output without building coils or learning wicking
• Move between a mouth-to-lung style and a looser lung inhale and want a pod range that offers variants for both
• Value being able to refill at home and keep a spare in a bag or coat pocket
• Are switching from smoking and want something that delivers nicotine reliably, which a refillable pod with salt nicotine can do well

You should look elsewhere if you:

• Do not own a compatible device. These pods will not work on their own, and they are not interchangeable with other VooPoo pod types or other brands
• Want a zero-maintenance vape that you throw away when finished. A disposable or a closed pod system is simpler, because it needs no refilling
• Do not want to handle bottles of liquid, which can leak and stain
• Have never smoked or vaped and are not looking to quit smoking. Nicotine is addictive and we do not recommend starting
• Are under 18. It is illegal to sell vaping products to anyone under 18 in the UK and we will not do so
• Want a tiny, pocket-flat device. A tank-style pod is thicker than a stick-style pod and trades some pocketability for capacity

There is also a middle group: people who have had a bad experience with a refillable pod and are wondering whether to try again. If your earlier trouble was burnt coils, leaks or a harsh throat, nearly all of it traces back to priming, overfilling or a mismatch between resistance and nicotine strength, all of which are covered on this page. The pod is not hard to use well, it just has a few habits that are not obvious until someone tells you.

How to Fit, Fill and Prime the Pods

A fresh pod takes about five minutes from packet to first puff, and the order matters. Follow these steps in sequence.

• 1. Check the variant. Confirm the resistance and the wattage window on the packaging, and set your device to a value inside it if the device has adjustable power.
• 2. Remove the old pod. Switch the device off or lock the button if it has that option. Pull the old pod out and put it aside for recycling. Wipe the device contacts with a dry tissue.
• 3. Open the fill port. Peel back or lift the silicone seal on the new pod. Hold the pod upright while you do this, so nothing drips onto the contacts.
• 4. Fill slowly. Tilt the bottle nozzle against the side of the port and let the liquid run down the inner wall. Fill to just below the maximum line. Overfilling forces liquid into the airflow path and is the reason for most leaks.
• 5. Close the seal. Press the silicone back until it sits flush all the way round. Wipe any spilled liquid off the outside of the pod and especially off the contacts.
• 6. Wait. Stand the pod upright for three to five minutes. This lets the mesh and cotton saturate. Do not skip this.
• 7. Insert the pod. Push it into the device until it seats firmly.
• 8. Prime with gentle draws. Take two or three short, low-power draws without holding the button down, and let a few seconds pass between them. Then use your normal setting.

A few habits that extend pod life and cut down on mess:

• Refill when the liquid is about a quarter full rather than waiting for the last drop
• Keep the device upright when you are not using it
• Wipe the mouthpiece and contacts once a day
• Do not mix different liquids in one pod, and rinse the exterior before changing flavour
• Do not run the pod at the very top of the stated wattage range as a habit. Aim for the middle of the window and move up only if you need to

Never try to disassemble the coil or reuse a pod after the cotton has darkened badly. The coil is a sealed part, and attempting to open or re-wick it is not worth the risk or the mess.

Troubleshooting, Care and Recycling

Most problems with refillable pods have a short list of causes. Work down the list before you decide a pod is faulty.

• Burnt taste on a new pod: almost always insufficient priming. Let the pod rest, take gentle draws, and lower the wattage. If the burnt taste persists after a full day, the coil may have been dry-fired and should be replaced.
• Gurgling or spitting: too much liquid in the airflow path. Pull the pod, tap it gently on a tissue, wipe the base and re-seat. Avoid overfilling next time.
• Leaking from the base or the airflow openings: check that the fill seal is closed, that you did not overfill, and that the pod is not cracked. Pressure and temperature changes can push liquid out, so avoid leaving a full pod in a hot car or taking one on a flight with a full reservoir.
• Device shows a firing or no-pod error: remove the pod, wipe the contacts on both the pod and the device with a dry tissue, and re-seat. Residue is the usual culprit.
• Weak vapour or muted flavour: the coil is probably worn, or the battery is low. Try a fresh pod and a full charge. If flavour comes back with the new pod, the old coil had reached the end of its life.
• Dry or hot hits mid-fill: liquid level is too low, the liquid is too thick for the resistance, or the wattage is too high. Refill, switch to a thinner liquid or lower the power.
• Pod will not seat properly: check you have a TPP pod rather than a look-alike from a different platform, and clean the contact area.

Care. Store spare pods in their packaging, upright, somewhere cool and out of direct sunlight. Keep liquid and pods well away from children and pets, because nicotine liquid is toxic if swallowed or absorbed through the skin. If liquid gets on your skin, wash it off with soap and water.

Recycling. Used pods contain plastic, a metal coil and saturated cotton, so they should not go in the general rubbish or the kerbside recycling. Take them to a retailer take-back point or a household waste recycling centre that accepts small electrical items, and check your local council's guidance for the nearest drop-off point. Devices and any product with a battery must always go to an electrical recycling point. Never put a lithium battery in household bins, as it can start a fire in a collection lorry.

Value for Money and Fair Comparisons

Value with a replacement pod is about cost per week of use, not the sticker price. A pack of two gives you two coils and 10ml of nominal reservoir, and at one to three weeks per pod for a moderate user that is roughly two to six weeks of vaping from a single purchase. Compare that with a pack of disposables: a heavy disposable user can easily get through one or two units a week, and the cost of replacing those over a month is usually well above what a pack of pods and a few bottles of liquid costs. The refillable route saves money for anyone vaping daily, and the saving grows the longer you stay with it.

Where the pack looks less attractive: if you vape only occasionally, a pod can sit for weeks and the e-liquid you put in it ages, so a pod may be replaced for taste reasons before the coil wears out. In that case a single pod bought as needed may suit you better than stockpiling.

How it compares fairly with the alternatives:

• VooPoo's own PnP-style pods: these are the better-known format in the wider VooPoo range and are widely stocked. The TPP format is a different platform with a larger tank-style reservoir. If you own a TPP device, you need TPP pods, so this is not a like-for-like choice but a question of which device you bought.
• Vaporesso GTX-style pods: also mesh, widely available and popular for their flavour. The performance level is similar in principle. The deciding factor is which device you already own rather than a large gap in how they vape.
• Smok RPM and Nord-style pods: a very large ecosystem with plenty of coil options. They offer more variety in coil type, whereas TPP offers a simpler choice with fewer variants.
• Geekvape Aegis Boost-style pods: known for ruggedness and a strong range of coil options. If you need a more weather-resistant device, that ecosystem is worth a look, though the pods are generally a different shape and not interchangeable.
• Closed-pod systems such as Uwell Caliburn-style pods: smaller, simpler and tuned for tight draws. They are easier to carry but hold less liquid, so you refill more often.
• Disposables: no refilling, no coil changes, and no upkeep. You pay for that convenience in running cost and in waste, since the whole device, battery included, must be recycled each time.

Our honest view is that these pods are good value if you already own a TPP device, you vape most days and you are comfortable with a few minutes of maintenance. They are poor value if you are buying them for a device that does not take them, if you want a no-effort vape, or if you only vape a few times a week. Order a pack, keep one pod in use and one in reserve, and you have covered weeks of use without a last-minute trip to a shop.
