Best E-Liquids for OXVA VPrime
The VPrime is OXVA’s only 60W direct-to-lung (DTL) pod kit — which means your liquid choices are entirely different from MTL pod devices. Using nic salts in a 60W DTL device delivers nicotine far too fast and can cause genuine discomfort. This guide explains exactly what works and why.
VPrime Liquid Requirements
| Spec | Requirement | Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|
| VG/PG Ratio | 70VG/30PG minimum | High VG = dense cloud, smooth direct-lung draw |
| Nicotine Type | Freebase only | Nic salts at 60W deliver dangerously fast nicotine |
| Nicotine Strength | 0mg–6mg | DTL delivers nicotine 3–5x more efficiently than MTL |
| Bottle Format | 50ml or 100ml shortfill | 5ml pod empties quickly at DTL wattage |
| Coil (included) | 0.2Ω DTL / 0.6Ω RDL | Sub-ohm = freebase only |
Understanding VPrime Coil Options
0.2Ω coil (included, DTL) — Full sub-ohm experience. 40–60W output. Dense vapour, intense flavour. Use 0mg–3mg freebase shortfill only.
0.6Ω coil (also included, RDL/MTL) — Restricted direct lung. 15–25W. More like a premium pod kit. Can use 0mg–6mg freebase or a very light 5mg nic salt at lower wattage.
Best Liquid Types for VPrime
100ml Shortfill + Nic Shot (Best Value)
100ml shortfill at 0mg, add a 10ml 18mg nic shot = 110ml at approximately 1.6mg. Huge flavour variety, excellent value. Look for 70VG/30PG ratio or higher.

50ml Shortfill (Good for Trying Flavours)
Lower commitment per bottle — ideal for experimenting with new flavours before buying 100ml. Fill VPrime’s 5ml pod from the bottle directly.

Best Flavour Categories for DTL Vaping
- Fruits — Bright, clean formulas. High-VG fruit shortfills are the most popular DTL choice
- Menthol / Ice — The cooling sensation is amplified by cloud volume. Popular for all-day DTL
- Drinks / Cocktails — Complex profiles come alive at sub-ohm power levels
- Avoid heavy desserts/custards — Thick, sweet formulas gunk the 0.2Ω coil rapidly
What NOT to Use in VPrime
- 20mg or 10mg nic salts — At 60W one pod fill delivers a dangerous nicotine dose. Serious risk of nicotine sickness
- 10ml 50/50 nic salts — Too thin for 0.2Ω sub-ohm, floods coil
- Any liquid under 60VG — Harsh, hot throat hit at DTL wattage. Unpleasant and damaging to coil
Monthly Liquid Budget for VPrime
DTL vaping consumes liquid faster than MTL. Expect to use 5–10ml per day with the 0.2Ω coil at full wattage. That is one 100ml shortfill lasting 10–20 days. Monthly liquid cost: approximately £15–25 for 2–3 shortfills.
