1. 0.16 ohm RPM 2 Mesh Coil:
   • Designed For: Direct lung (DL) vaping.
   • Recommended Wattage: Best at 40W.
   • Compatibility with Nicotine Salts: Not suitable for high-nicotine salt e-liquids like 50mg. This coil is intended for sub-ohm vaping, producing larger vapor clouds and a more intense throat hit, which could be overwhelming or harsh with high nicotine salts, even at a low wattage setting.
2. 0.4 ohm RPM Mesh Coil:
   • Designed For: Restricted direct lung (RDL) or restricted mouth-to-lung (RMTL) vaping.
   • Recommended Wattage: Best at 25W.
   • Compatibility with Nicotine Salts: Still not ideal for 50mg salts, as it is a sub-ohm coil and will produce a relatively high amount of vapor, potentially delivering too much nicotine per puff, even at lower wattages.

If you attempt to use sub-ohm coils (like the included 0.16 ohm RPM 2 Mesh Coil or 0.4 ohm RPM Mesh Coil) with nicotine salts at low wattages (5-15 watts), please be aware of the following:

• Insufficient Power for Sub-Ohm Coils: Running these coils at 5 watts is much lower than their recommended wattage range. While this might reduce vapor production, it could lead to poor performance:
• Dry Hits or Leaking: The coil might not heat up properly, causing e-liquid to flood the coil or produce dry hits.
• Poor Flavor and Vapor Production: The coils are designed to operate at higher wattages. At 5 watts, the vapor production and flavor quality will be significantly reduced.

Pros:

• Robust build with IP67 rating
• High battery capacity
• Versatile wattage range
• Compatible with multiple coil types
• Stylish and ergonomic design

Cons:

• Some may find it bulkier than other pod systems
• Limited to the RPM coil series

The SMOK Nord X is a versatile and durable device designed for sub-ohm vaping, offering a range of coil options and adjustable wattage settings. However, to get the most out of your device, it’s crucial to understand the compatibility of different e-liquids and coils.

Important Note for SMOK Nord X Users:

This device is not recommended for use with:

• High nicotine salt e-liquids (2%, 3%, or 5% / 20mg, 30mg, or 50mg).
• 50VG/50PG freebase nicotine e-liquids.

Why Should You Avoid High Nicotine Salts and 50VG/50PG E-Liquids?

The SMOK Nord X is designed primarily for sub-ohm vaping and performs best with:

• Lower nicotine levels (below 12mg).
• High VG e-liquids (70VG/30PG or higher).

Using high nicotine salts (20mg or above) or 50VG/50PG freebase nicotine can result in a harsh or uncomfortable experience due to the device’s higher power output and coil compatibility.

Enhance your vaping experience with Black Note Natural Tobacco Eliquids. Our e-liquids, crafted from real tobacco leaves, are free from artificial flavors, sweeteners, and synthetic nicotine.

This juice is like the first cigarette from a fresh pack of Marlboro Lights in every puff! I started with the 6 mg and found myself still wanting cigarettes now & then, so i bought the 12 mg this time- that was kind of strong so I mixed the two and Perfection happened! I change my cartridge after every third refill for the best flavor. Thank You Black Note!
