It's rated for roughly a day of typical MTL use before it needs topping up, and the supplied USB cable gets it back to full in around 60 minutes. Just remember to \u003cstrong\u003echarge it on 1A only\u003c\/strong\u003e, since anything stronger isn't something the internal circuit is built to take.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDirect Voltage Output\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRather than juggling wattage settings, the VM Stick 18 runs on a straightforward \u003cstrong\u003evoltage-based system\u003c\/strong\u003e that stays consistent through most of the charge cycle. Flavour and vapour don't dip noticeably as the battery runs down, which matters more than people expect once they've used a device that tapers off toward the end of the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eVM Tank 18 with Dual Coil Options\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe tank holds \u003cstrong\u003e2ml\u003c\/strong\u003e and threads onto the device with a top-fill cap, so refilling doesn't mean pulling anything apart. It ships with both a \u003cstrong\u003e1.0Ω CCELL coil\u003c\/strong\u003e for a tight, smooth pull and a \u003cstrong\u003e0.6Ω mesh coil\u003c\/strong\u003e for slightly more cloud and flavour, both from Vaporesso's wider \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/piratevapes.co.uk\/collections\/vape-coils\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Vape Coils\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVape Coils\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e range if you need spares down the line.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAdjustable Bottom Airflow\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA rotating ring at the base of the tank lets you dial the draw tighter or looser depending on mood or which coil you've got fitted.

The \u003cstrong\u003etwo included coils\u003c\/strong\u003e give you a genuine choice between a tight cigarette-style draw and a slightly more open, flavour-forward pull, and the \u003cstrong\u003eadjustable airflow\u003c\/strong\u003e means you're not locked into either.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt won't suit anyone chasing big clouds or wattage tinkering, but for straightforward MTL vaping in a compact, pocket-friendly body, it does exactly what it's meant to. \u003cstrong\u003ePirate Vapes\u003c\/strong\u003e has it in stock across all four colourways for UK delivery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFAQs\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I turn the device on and off?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClick the fire button five times quickly.

Try the 0.6Ω mesh coil if you'd rather have a bit more vapour and stronger flavour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow long does it take to charge fully?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAround 60 minutes on the supplied USB cable, provided you're charging on a 1A source. It isn't built to handle stronger charging currents.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I use it while it's plugged in and charging?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's best avoided. Vaping while it charges puts extra strain on the battery and can shorten its lifespan over time, so it's worth waiting until it's finished.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat kind of e-liquid works best in this kit?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNic salts or 50\/50 e-liquids suit the coils well. Higher VG juices can struggle to wick properly in a tank this size, so it's best to stay away from anything too thick.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs this kit suitable for a complete beginner?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, it's one of the more beginner-friendly kits around. There's no wattage to set, no menu to navigate, and the two coils give new vapers an easy way to figure out which draw style they prefer.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vaporesso","offers":[{"title":"Best Colour","offer_id":52741038604570,"sku":null,"price":13.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black","offer_id":52741038637338,"sku":null,"price":13.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Blue","offer_id":52741038670106,"sku":null,"price":13.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Rainbow","offer_id":52741038702874,"sku":null,"price":13.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Silver","offer_id":52741038735642,"sku":null,"price":13.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0995\/5675\/3690\/files\/Vaporesso_VM_Stick_18_Starter_Kit.jpg?v=1787665105","url":"https:\/\/piratevapes.co.uk\/products\/vaporesso-vm-stick-18-starter-kit","provider":"Pirate Vapes","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
