So here&#8217;s the plain version, the one I wish someone had given me when I started.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is airflow in a vape?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Airflow is simply how much air gets pulled through the device alongside the vapour when you inhale. Open it right up and you get a loose, airy draw, similar to breathing through a thick straw. Close it down, and the draw gets tighter and more restricted, closer to the pull you&#8217;d get from a cigarette. Neither is right or wrong, it&#8217;s entirely down to what feels natural to you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;ve come from smoking, you&#8217;ll probably find a tighter airflow feels more familiar at first. Vapers who&#8217;ve been at it a while, or who enjoy bigger clouds, tend to prefer it wide open. There&#8217;s no rule here, just preference, and most decent kits these days let you adjust it rather than locking you into one setting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-cover is-light\" style=\"min-height:160px;aspect-ratio:unset;\"><span aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-cover__background has-background-dim-100 has-background-dim\" style=\"background-color:#f2f2f2\"><\/span><div class=\"wp-block-cover__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-cover-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A quick airflow tip:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Running your vape with higher airflow will generally burn through liquid faster. If this is an issue, you can use lower wattages or higher resistance coils to offset the greater e-liquid consumption.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">MTL vs DTL and how it affects airflow<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Most pod kits on the market are built for MTL, (mouth-to-lung) which can feel a bit odd if you&#8217;re not used to it. Open the airflow slider all the way on one of these and you&#8217;ll mostly just get a mouthful of air rather than anything useful. If DTL, (direct-to-lung) is more your style, you&#8217;ll usually need a kit and e-liquid designed specifically for it. That&#8217;s where a fully open airflow slider actually earns its keep, giving you a smooth, airy draw without the harshness of a tight, restrictive pull.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you&#8217;re just starting out, I&#8217;d set the airflow slider to the middle and get a feel for things from there. If you find yourself wanting bigger clouds and a looser draw, that&#8217;s a good sign DTL might suit you, and you can pick up a kit built for that further down the line. For now, though, I&#8217;d start with MTL and get comfortable before you go looking for anything more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is wattage in a vape?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Wattage is the measurement of power being sent to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.totallywicked-eliquid.co.uk\/atomizer-heads\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">vape coil<\/a> by the battery. Turn it up and the coil heats faster and produces more vapour, along with a more intense flavour and a slightly warmer draw. Turn it down and you get a cooler, gentler vape with less vapour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The important bit most people miss: wattage has to match the coil you&#8217;ve got fitted. Every coil has a resistance rating, and every resistance rating has a recommended wattage range. Push too far outside that range and you risk a burnt, unpleasant taste, or in worse cases, damage to the coil itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is why the better kits on the market now do a lot of that thinking for you. Insert a pod, and the device reads the resistance and suggests a sensible wattage automatically. You can usually still override it if you want more control, but you&#8217;re not left guessing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-cover is-light\" style=\"min-height:160px;aspect-ratio:unset;\"><span aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-cover__background has-background-dim-100 has-background-dim\" style=\"background-color:#f2f2f2\"><\/span><div class=\"wp-block-cover__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-cover-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A quick wattage tip:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Running your vape on a higher wattage will deplete your battery faster, as it&#8217;s more of the battery&#8217;s power being used to fire the coil. If you feel you&#8217;re going to want to run your vape at a higher wattage, it might be worth opting for a kit with a higher battery capacity.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Lumina: Starting simple<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/www.totallywicked-eliquid.co.uk\/vaped\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/lumina.jpg\" alt=\"lumina\" class=\"wp-image-28751\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.totallywicked-eliquid.co.uk\/vaped\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/lumina.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.totallywicked-eliquid.co.uk\/vaped\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/lumina-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.totallywicked-eliquid.co.uk\/vaped\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/lumina-75x75.jpg 75w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>If you&#8217;re brand new to all this, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.totallywicked-eliquid.co.uk\/lumina-kit\">Lumina<\/a> is where I&#8217;d point you first. It&#8217;s built specifically as a step up from the most basic auto-draw pod kits, without throwing you in the deep end. The airflow slider sits on the back, simple to find and adjust, and the device automatically detects your pod&#8217;s resistance and sets a sensible wattage the moment you insert it. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center button wide\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.totallywicked-eliquid.co.uk\/lumina-kit\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Shop Lumina Now<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can still nudge the wattage yourself through the side button if you want to experiment, but you don&#8217;t have to touch a thing if you&#8217;d rather it just worked. I like that it supports both button and draw activation too, so you&#8217;re not forced into one habit before you&#8217;ve worked out which you prefer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The best thing about the Lumina is that you can use both pre-filled and refillable pods. So if you don&#8217;t want the hassle of carrying around liquid, the Lumina is definitely worth consideration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Aeromax Boost: A little more control <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Once you&#8217;ve got a feel for how airflow and wattage change your vape, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.totallywicked-eliquid.co.uk\/aeromax-boost\">Aeromax Boost<\/a> is a natural next step. It runs a wider 8 to 40 watt range, an airflow slider on the side rather than the back, and a dual mesh coil setup, meaning two coils working together in the pod rather than one &#8211; which in my experience keeps flavour tasting fresher for longer as the pod empties.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/www.totallywicked-eliquid.co.uk\/vaped\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/aeromax-boost.jpg\" alt=\"aeromax boost\" class=\"wp-image-28752\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.totallywicked-eliquid.co.uk\/vaped\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/aeromax-boost.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.totallywicked-eliquid.co.uk\/vaped\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/aeromax-boost-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.totallywicked-eliquid.co.uk\/vaped\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/aeromax-boost-75x75.jpg 75w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center button wide\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.totallywicked-eliquid.co.uk\/aeromax-boost\">Shop Aeromax Boost Now<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s still smart enough to recommend a wattage automatically, and it&#8217;ll remember your preferred setting after a couple of consistent puffs, but there&#8217;s more room here to actually play with the numbers if that&#8217;s what you&#8217;re after.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Mavro Pro: Full control<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/www.totallywicked-eliquid.co.uk\/vaped\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/mavro-pro.jpg\" alt=\"mavro pro\" class=\"wp-image-28754\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.totallywicked-eliquid.co.uk\/vaped\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/mavro-pro.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.totallywicked-eliquid.co.uk\/vaped\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/mavro-pro-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.totallywicked-eliquid.co.uk\/vaped\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/mavro-pro-75x75.jpg 75w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.totallywicked-eliquid.co.uk\/mavro-pro\">Mavro Pro<\/a> is where things get more serious, and I wouldn&#8217;t personally recommend starting here if you&#8217;re brand new. It runs up to 50 watts, has a proper adjustable airflow slider on the side, and includes a Dual Mode setting that effectively halves the coil resistance for a much airier, sub-ohm style draw, the kind of setup vapers move towards once they&#8217;ve decided they want bigger clouds and a looser inhale rather than a tight, cigarette-like pull. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center button wide\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.totallywicked-eliquid.co.uk\/mavro-pro\">Shop Mavro Pro Now<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;ll still auto-detect your pod and stop you from setting the wattage dangerously high, which I think is a sensible safeguard regardless of experience level, but there&#8217;s a lot more here to tune if you want it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What to look out for when playing with wattage<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;ll say this plainly: don&#8217;t assume higher wattage automatically means a better vape. It doesn&#8217;t. It means a different vape, and often a harsher one if you push it too far past what your coil&#8217;s rated for. I&#8217;ve made that mistake myself, more than once, usually out of impatience rather than any good reason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s also worth giving a new pod a few minutes to settle before you vape on it properly, most kits recommend around five minutes, so the wick has time to soak through. Skip that step and you&#8217;re far more likely to get a burnt taste on your first few pulls, which has nothing to do with the device and everything to do with rushing in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And finally, whichever kit you land on, start lower than you think you need to. You can always turn the wattage up. You can&#8217;t undo a scorched coil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re just starting out, the Lumina genuinely is the easiest place to build confidence with these settings before moving anywhere more advanced. Take your time with it. There&#8217;s no prize for jumping straight to the top of the range.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;ve decided to write this guide after one too many conversations in the shop that went something like &#8220;what&#8217;s the difference between airflow and wattage, and why do I need to touch either of them?&#8221; It&#8217;s a fair question.
