The SMOK Novo 5 replacement pods are the stock pods for the Novo 5 MTL pod kit — and they also slot straight into the Novo 6 and Novo 6 Ultra without any fuss. If your pod's lost its flavour or you're stocking up, these are the ones you need.

Each pod holds 2ml of e-liquid (fully TPD compliant) and comes with an integrated 0.7ohm mesh coil built in — no separate coil swaps needed. The clear PCTG shell lets you see your liquid level at a glance. Vapers report each pod lasting around one to two weeks depending on how heavily you use it.

Key Features

• Integrated 0.7ohm Mesh Coil – Built-in and non-removable; balanced heat distribution gives clean, consistent flavour without fiddling with separate coils.
• 2ml TPD-Compliant Capacity – Meets UK regulations out of the box. No workarounds needed.
• Top-Fill Design – Lift the mouthpiece cap, fill, replace. No removing the pod from your device.
• Clear Pod Shell – See exactly how much liquid's left. No guesswork, no dry hits from running empty.
• Magnetic Connection – Clicks in securely. Stays put during use, pulls out cleanly when you need to swap.

Core Advantages

Top-Fill That Actually Works

Most vapers who've used side-fill pods know the frustration — awkward angles, spills, liquid getting where it shouldn't. The Novo 5 pod lifts the mouthpiece cap straight off and fills from the top. You don't even have to pull the pod from your device. Clean, quick, no mess制.

Solid Flavour From a Built-In Mesh Coil

The 0.7ohm mesh coil is integrated into the pod — there's nothing to replace separately. For MTL vaping, the mesh design distributes heat evenly across the coil surface, which translates to cleaner flavour without hot spots. Works well from around 15W up to 25W depending on your e-liquid and preferred MTL draw.

Cross-Compatible With Three Novo Kits

These pods aren't just for the Novo 5. They fit the Novo 6 and Novo 6 Ultra too — same pods, same magnetic connection. If you've upgraded your device but don't want to track down a different pod, you're sorted.

Recommended E-Liquids

These pods suit nic salts and 50/50 freebase e-liquids best. The 0.7ohm coil is a tight-ish MTL draw — solid for ex-smokers and anyone who prefers a cigarette-style inhale.

By vaping style:

• Ex-smokers / new vapers – 10mg–20mg nic salts, any standard 50/50 flavour. The throat hit carries through well.
• Established vapers – 10mg salts or 6mg–12mg 50/50 freebase. Works with most pod-friendly flavour profiles.

Flavour categories that pair well:

• Tobacco – Straightforward, familiar for ex-smokers
• Menthol / cool mint – Popular with tight MTL setups; flavour comes through clearly
• Fruit – Berries, citrus, tropical; all perform well
• Dessert / custard – Works, though heavier VG blends (70/30 and above) may cause the coil to wear faster

Avoid anything above 70% VG — the coil can struggle with thick liquids and the flavour drops off quicker.

How To Use

1. Prime the coil – After filling a fresh pod, leave it to sit for 5–10 minutes before your first vape. This lets the cotton saturate properly. Skipping this is the main cause of a burnt first hit.
2. Remove the mouthpiece cap – Lift or pull the black duckbill mouthpiece straight off the top of the pod. It pops off without needing to detach the pod from your device.
3. Fill the pod – Insert your e-liquid bottle nozzle directly into the fill port. Fill to just below the max line — overfilling is the most common cause of leaks.
4. Replace the mouthpiece cap – Press it back on until it clicks into place, sealing the fill port.
5. Reattach the pod (if removed) – The magnetic connection clicks in with a satisfying snap. Give it a gentle tug to check it's seated.
6. Set your wattage – 15W–20W is a good starting point for the 0.7ohm pod. Go up from there if you want a warmer vape.

How To Fill With E-liquid

1. Remove the top cap to open the filling port.
2. Insert the nozzle of an e-liquid refill container into the filling port.
3. Install the top cap back carefully to close the filling port of the pod.
4. Install the pod back to the device.

FAQs

Are SMOK Novo 5 pods compatible with the Novo 6 and Novo 6 Ultra?

Yes — the Novo 5 pods fit the Novo 6 and Novo 6 Ultra as well. Same magnetic connection, same 2ml refillable pods design. If you've moved from a Novo 5 to a Novo 6, you can keep using the same pods.

How long does a Novo 5 pod last before it needs replacing?

Most vapers get around 1–2 weeks from a single pod with regular daily use. Flavour quality is usually the first sign it's time to swap — when it starts tasting flat or slightly burnt, the coil's done.

My pod is leaking — what's causing it?

Nine times out of ten it's overfilling. Leave a small gap at the top when you fill; liquid needs space or it'll work its way through the airflow. Also check the mouthpiece cap is fully seated after every fill.

What e-liquid works best with these pods?

Nic salts or 50/50 freebase e-liquids are the safest bet. Anything with more than 70% VG can be too thick for the 0.7ohm coil and will shorten how long the pod lasts. 10mg–20mg nic salts are ideal for most Mouth to Lung (MTL) users.

Can I use the Novo 5 pods in a Novo 4 or Novo X device?

No — the Novo 4 and Novo X use a different pod system with LP1 replacement coils. The Novo 5 pods are only confirmed compatible with the Novo 5, Novo 6, and Novo 6 Ultra kits.
