If a replacement pod, different device or Vapestore product page makes sense, we will say so clearly and link to the relevant guide or tracked buying option.
Hello. I'm using my XLIM Pro 3 with 20mg nic salts. The device has wattage settings but I'm not sure which one to use. It's currently on 12W which is where it was when I got it. Should I change it? I'm using a 0.8 ohm pod.
12W with a 0.8 ohm pod and nic salts is actually a solid starting point – that's pretty much what most people settle on for everyday MTL vaping. Lower wattage gives a cooler draw with more intense flavour; higher wattage warms it up and can increase vapour production but burns through the pod faster.
For nic salts, staying between 10-14W on a 0.8 ohm pod is the sweet spot for most people. Try 10W if you want a cooler, more flavour-forward experience; try 14W if you want a bit more warmth and throat hit. It's quite personal so worth experimenting a bit.
I settled on 11W with my 0.8 ohm pod and nic salts. Found 12W just slightly warm for all-day vaping. It really is personal though – worth trying a few different settings over a day or two to find what you like.
Thank you both! Tried 11W and honestly prefer it slightly – a touch cooler draw and flavour feels cleaner. Good tip about experimenting. Will try 10W tomorrow.
