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?

0.2 ohm at 30W is a fairly high-demand setup and 5-6 days is within the normal range for that usage pattern. The higher wattage means the coil is running hotter and the liquid is being vaporised faster, which accelerates coil wear.

A few things that can extend life: try dropping to 25W and see if you notice the difference in vapour/flavour. Even 5W less makes a meaningful difference to coil wear at that range. Also check your liquid – darker, sweeter flavours gunk up mesh coils faster at high wattage. A lighter fruity nic salt will treat the coil more gently.

I'm on 0.2 at 28W and get 8-9 days. Dropping from 30 to 28W honestly made quite a bit of difference to pod life without really affecting the experience. Worth trying.

Dropped to 27W and switched to a lighter fruity nic salt. On day 7 and going strong. The difference in pod life really is noticeable. Cheers!
