VPrime 3 making a faint whistling sound on the draw

LucyFromLeeds — Mon, 22 Jun 2026 09:30:12 +0000

Started this morning out of nowhere. Using a fairly new pod, airway looks clear. The whistle is very faint but once you hear it you can't unhear it. Tried a different pod and it's the same. Is this a sign of something wearing out or just an airflow quirk?

VPrime 0.2 mesh pod tips – getting the best from it

PhilipVapes — Thu, 21 May 2026 19:47:00 +0000

I've been on the 0.4 ohm VPrime pod for a few months and finally tried the 0.2. I'm struggling to get the best from it. What wattage range, what liquids, what airflow setup do people use for the 0.2? Any tips appreciated.

Six months with the VPrime – an honest review

NickNorwich — Sun, 03 May 2026 20:22:00 +0000

Got my VPrime in November and have been using it daily since. Thought I'd do a proper review for anyone considering it:

Build quality: 9/10. Solid, premium feel, no rattles or issues.
Battery life: 8/10. Full day of moderate use. Sometimes needs a top-up early evening if I've been busy.
Flavour: 8/10. Excellent with 0.4 ohm pods. The 0.2 is vapour-focused rather than flavour-focused.
Pod life: 7/10. 7-10 days at moderate wattage. Shorter at higher power.
Value: 8/10. More expensive upfront than XLIM but the premium feel justifies it.
Overall: Would absolutely buy again. Best pod kit I've owned.

Any questions happy to answer.

VPrime leaking more than my old NeXLIM

RickyCardiff — Fri, 10 Apr 2026 21:07:00 +0000

Switched from NeXLIM to VPrime a few weeks ago. Finding the VPrime pods leak more than the NeXLIM pods did. Not a constant problem but I'm finding moisture in the mouthpiece fairly regularly. Is this common or am I doing something wrong?

VPrime charging – should I run it down first?

TracyExeter — Mon, 30 Mar 2026 19:58:00 +0000

Quick battery care question. I've always heard conflicting advice about whether to run a vape down to empty before charging or whether to top it up regularly. What's actually better for the VPrime's battery long term?

VPrime pods going through faster than expected

I'm on my third VPrime pod in two weeks. They seem to last about 5-6 days for me. I'm using the 0.2 ohm at around 30W. Is this normal or should I be getting more out of each pod?

VPrime crackling sound when I vape – is this normal?

DaveLeicester — Sat, 14 Feb 2026 21:03:00 +0000

My VPrime makes a slight crackling/sizzling sound when I take a draw. Especially noticeable at the start of a draw. The vapour and flavour taste fine. Is this a fault or normal for mesh coils?

VPrime vs NeXLIM – which for heavy daily use?

NickNorwich — Sun, 25 Jan 2026 20:52:00 +0000

I vape quite a lot throughout the day. Currently on a NeXLIM which I love but considering the VPrime. For someone who uses their device fairly heavily all day, which would you recommend and why?

VPrime not producing as much vapour as expected

RickyCardiff — Mon, 12 Jan 2026 21:38:00 +0000

I bought the VPrime expecting more vapour production than my old NeXLIM. But I feel like it's not that different – maybe even slightly less? I'm using 0.4 ohm pods at 20W. Am I missing somet...

VPrime pods – 0.2 or 0.4 ohm for a smoother hit?

TracyExeter — Sun, 28 Dec 2025 21:11:00 +0000

I've got both the 0.2 and 0.4 ohm VPrime pods to try. I'm on 10mg nic salts (switched from 20mg) and want a smooth, flavourful experience without it being too intense. Which resistance should I start with?
