VooPoo Drag X PnP-X Pod Kit

Eighty watts from a single 18650 in a leather-and-alloy body that sits in your hand like a small mod. The Drag X is the external-battery version of VooPoo's Drag pod mod line, running the GENE.TT chipset with SMART wattage matching, a 2ml PnP-X pod on top, and the full PnP coil range at your disposal. Two mesh coils in the box, both DTL. 

The airflow slider goes from tightly restricted all the way to wide open, and you can fire it with the button or draw-activate it depending on the mode. It has been around for a while now, but there is a reason it keeps selling: it works, the coils are everywhere, and the price is hard to argue with. Pirate Vapes ships it tracked with age-verified UK delivery.

Why do vapers choose this:

• 80W from a single 18650 pod mod at a price that undercuts most of the competition.

• GENE.TT chipset with SMART mode. Detects the coil and sets the wattage for you. Fires in 0.001 seconds.

• Full PnP coil compatibility. MTL, RDTL, DTL. One kit, nine-plus coil options. You are not locked in.

• Button fire or auto-draw. Pick the mode that suits you. Most pod mods only do one.

• Infinite airflow slider. Goes from tight to wide open with no detents. Set it anywhere.

• Replaceable 18650 battery. When it dies, swap it. No downtime.

VooPoo Drag X PnP-X Pod Kit Features

SMART Mode and the GENE.TT Chip

Plug a coil in, and SMART mode reads the resistance and sets the wattage to the right range for that coil. You do not have to look up a spec sheet or guess. It also remembers your last setting, so if you manually adjust the wattage and then unplug the pod, it goes straight back to where you left it when you refit it.

The GENE.TT chip fires in 0.001 seconds, which sounds like a marketing number until you compare it to cheaper pods that have a noticeable lag between pressing the button and getting vapour. There is also a puff counter and VooPoo's score ranking feature, which rates each puff. A gimmick, but harmless.

Button Fire or Auto-Draw

Press the fire button three times and you get a mode menu. P mode is button-fire only. P+A mode gives you both button fire and auto-draw, so you can inhale to fire without pressing anything. RBA mode is button-fire only and unlocks the full wattage range for rebuildable coils. Most people end up in P+A mode because the auto-draw is surprisingly good on the Drag X. It responds quickly and feels natural.

Infinite Airflow

The airflow slider on the side has no detents or fixed positions. You slide it anywhere you want between fully closed and fully open, and it stays wherever you leave it. That matters because the Drag X takes coils from 1.2Ω MTL all the way down to 0.15Ω DTL. Being able to fine-tune the draw for each coil type is what makes this kit genuinely flexible rather than a DTL pod that pretends it can do MTL.

The PnP-X Pod

The upgraded PnP-X pod has a metal decorative ring and a knob-fill design on top. You twist the knob to open the fill port, pour in up to 2ml under UK TPD rules, and twist it shut. It is cleaner than the old slide-to-fill design on the original PnP pod. The drip tip is a 510 fitting, so you can swap it for a different one if the stock tip does not suit you. The pod connects magnetically and sits firmly on the mod. The anti-leak design has been tightened up over the earlier versions.

Replaceable 18650 Battery

The bottom of the mod has a hinged battery door. Pop it open, drop in an 18650, close it. That is it. At lower wattages on the 0.3Ω coil, a decent 18650 will see you through a day. At 60 to 80W on the 0.15Ω coil, you will burn through it faster, which is where having a spare battery in your pocket pays off. USB-C charging at 2A is included if you would rather charge the battery inside the device.

What E-Liquid to Use

Depends on the coil. The two included coils (0.3Ω VM1 and 0.15Ω VM6) are both DTL and want High-VG Shortfills, 70/30 or thicker. If you swap in a TM2 (0.8Ω) or TR1 (1.2Ω) for MTL vaping, use nic salts or 50/50 freebase instead. The kit does both styles, but you have to match the liquid to the coil. Browse our e-liquid range at Pirate Vapes for shortfills, nic salts, and 50/50 Liquids.

How to Set Up the VooPoo Drag X PnP-X Pod Kit

1. Open the battery door and fit a single 18650 with the correct polarity. Close the door.

2. Push a PnP coil into the base of the PnP-X pod until it clicks. Drip a few drops of e-liquid onto the mesh and cotton. That is priming.

3. Twist the knob on top of the pod to open the fill port. Fill with up to 2ml of e-liquid. Twist it shut.

4. Click the pod onto the mod magnetically. Leave it standing for five to ten minutes so the coil soaks.

5. Press the fire button five times to turn on. SMART mode will read the coil and set the wattage. Adjust the airflow slider. Vape.

Prime the coil. Soak it. You know the drill by now. Skip it, and you burn the cotton on the first draw.

About VooPoo

VooPoo made the Drag series into one of the most widely sold pod mod lines in the UK. The original Drag mod built its reputation on the GENE chip and the alloy-and-leather build, and the Drag X carries both of those into a smaller, pod-based format.

The PnP coil platform is the biggest reason people stick with VooPoo once they start: one coil system works across the Drag S, Drag X, Drag 3, Argus, Vinci, and a long list of other devices. The coils are widely stocked, the kits are well-priced, and the SMART wattage matching means you do not need to understand ohms and watts to get a good vape from the first draw.

Stock Up and Save

The kit comes with two coils. That covers a few weeks at most. After that you are buying PnP Replacements. Grab a five-pack of coils, an 18650 battery, and a bottle of shortfill or nic salt alongside the kit and your first month is covered. 

Pirate Vapes sends everything out in plain packaging, tracked to your door, age-verified checkout, 18+ delivery. Crew Rewards points go on every order. And if you want coils posted automatically, The Crow's Nest at Pirate Vapes handles that with a saving built in.

Conclusion

The Drag X is an 80W single-18650 pod mod with the GENE.TT chipset, SMART wattage matching, auto-draw or button-fire modes, infinite airflow, a 2ml PnP-X pod, and compatibility with the full PnP Coil Range from tight MTL to wide-open DTL. Alloy and leather build, knob-fill top cap, replaceable battery.

It is not new, but it is still one of the best-selling pod mods in the UK because it does everything competently and the coils are easy to find everywhere. Two mesh coils in the box, battery not included. Grab one from Pirate Vapes with tracked, age-verified UK delivery.

FAQs

Does it come with a battery?

No. The Drag X takes a single 18650, sold separately. Any reputable 18650 rated at 20A or above will work.

What coils does it use?

The full VooPoo PnP coil range. The kit ships with a VM1 0.3Ω (32–40W) and a VM6 0.15Ω (60–80W). Both are DTL mesh coils. You can also fit MTL coils like the TM2 (0.8Ω) or TR1 (1.2Ω) for nic salts.

What e-liquid should I use?

Match the liquid to the coil. The included DTL coils want high-VG shortfills. If you swap in an MTL coil, use nic salts or 50/50 freebase. The kit handles both styles.

Is it button-fire or auto-draw?

Both. You choose the mode. P mode is button-fire only. P+A mode gives you both. RBA mode is button-fire for rebuildable coils.

Can I use MTL coils in this kit?

Yes. The PnP platform includes MTL coils like the TM2 (0.8Ω) and TR1 (1.2Ω). Swap one in, tighten the airflow, and use nic salts. The Drag X is genuinely flexible across draw styles.

How do I adjust the airflow?

A slider on the side of the pod. No fixed positions. Slide it anywhere between closed and open. It stays where you put it.

How long does the battery last?

Depends on your wattage. At 35W on the 0.3Ω coil, a 2500mAh 18650 lasts most of a day. At 70W on the 0.15Ω coil, you will drain it faster. Carry a spare.

What is the PnP-X pod?

The upgraded version of VooPoo's PnP pod. It has a metal ring, a knob-fill top cap instead of a slide, a 510 drip tip you can swap, and an improved anti-leak design. Holds 2ml under UK TPD.

Does Pirate Vapes stock the replacement coils and pods?

Yes. VooPoo PnP coils and PnP-X replacement pods are both in our VooPoo range at Pirate Vapes.

Can I get coils on a subscription?

You can. The Crow's Nest sends them on repeat with a saving.
