Smok RPM 5 Pro Pod Kit

The SMOK RPM 5 Pro is an 80W 18650 pod mod in the UK range, aimed at vapers who want sub-ohm clouds from a device that is still pocketable. It takes RPM 3 mesh coils, supplied in 0.15 ohm and 0.23 ohm, and the pod fills from the top. Eight finishes are available on this listing, from Prism Rainbow to leather-wrapped options.

Customers regularly ask what battery the SMOK RPM 5 Pro uses: it runs on a single removable 18650 cell, sold separately, so a flat battery can be swapped for a charged one in seconds. That is the key difference in the SMOK RPM 5 Pro vs RPM 5 question, as the standard RPM 5 has a built-in 2000mAh battery. In the UK, the RPM 5 pod holds 2ml, keeping the kit TPD compliant. Vapers stepping up from disposable-style flavour to bigger vapour can start on the 0.23 ohm head at a moderate wattage.

Shoppers searching vape shop near me for a swappable-battery kit are a steady audience for this device. We supply SMOK RPM 5 Pro wholesale with no minimum order, so you can bulk buy SMOK kits across all eight colours. As a UK vape wholesaler, we ship from our vape wholesale Manchester warehouse, same day before 3pm.

Unique Selling Points

Swappable 18650 Power

Instead of a sealed battery, the RPM 5 Pro holds one 18650 cell. Vapers who use high wattage can carry a second charged battery and swap it in when the first runs low, rather than waiting for the device to recharge. When a cell eventually wears out, only the battery needs replacing, which extends the useful life of the kit.

RPM 3 Mesh Coil Platform

The RPM 3 series is SMOK's mesh coil range for its higher-powered pods. The 0.23 ohm head gives a warm, flavour-led vape at moderate wattage, while the 0.15 ohm head is built for 40-80W and big vapour. Both press into the pod, and the same coils fit the RPM 5, Nord 5 and Nord GT, so they are easy to find.

80W In A Pod Format

The RPM 5 Pro combines box-mod power with the convenience of a pod. The pod tops up from above and lifts out for coil changes, so there is no tank to unscrew or glass to protect. For customers moving from compact pod kits, it offers far more power without the bulk of a traditional mod.

Why Choose the SMOK RPM 5 Pro?

• A spare 18650 means no waiting for a recharge
• Battery replacement extends the life of the device
• Coils are shared with several SMOK kits, so spares stay easy to find
• Top-fill pod keeps refilling quick and clean
• Eight finishes to suit different customers

Use Cases

Festival weekend: a cloud-chasing vaper carries two charged 18650 cells and swaps them between sets.

Delivery driver: someone on the road all day keeps a spare battery in the van so the device never runs out mid-shift.

Upgrade shelf: a vape shop places the RPM 5 Pro next to RPM 3 coils and RPM 5 pods for customers ready to move beyond MTL kits.

How to Use

1. Buy a high-drain 18650 battery from a reputable supplier.
2. Insert the battery into the device, following the polarity markings.
3. Push the 0.23 ohm RPM 3 coil into the pod if it is not already fitted.
4. Open the top fill cap.
5. Fill the pod with e-liquid, ideally a higher-VG freebase or shortfill blend.
6. Close the fill cap.
7. Leave the pod for five minutes so the coil can soak.
8. Fit the pod to the device.
9. Set a low wattage within the coil range and increase gradually.
