Oxva XLIM Pro 3 Open Pod Kit

The XLIM Pro 3 works with both nicotine salt and freebase e-liquids. For the included 0.8Ω pod, nicotine salt at 20mg/mL in a 50/50 VG/PG blend delivers the smoothest MTL experience. The 0.6Ω pod handles both nic salt and freebase well at higher wattage, producing more vapour and a warmer draw. If you prefer a tighter cigarette-style hit, pair the 1.2Ω pod (sold separately) with nic salt and close the airflow. Browse our nicotine salt e-liquids and freebase e-liquids for compatible options.

The Pulse System is a power delivery technology exclusive to the XLIM Pro 3. Instead of sending a single continuous current to the coil, the Photon Chip sends rapid micro-pulses that keep the coil temperature and vapour output consistent throughout each draw. More importantly, it maintains this consistency as the battery depletes. OXVA rates it at 80%+ flavour stability even at 20% battery, compared to other pod kits that can drop to 50% flavour intensity at the same charge level. In practice, this means you do not need to charge the device early just because the flavour starts to fade.

Yes. The XLIM Pro 3 is fully compatible with all XLIM pod types: V3 Top Fill, V2 Side Fill, and EZ Top Fill cartridges across all resistances (0.4Ω, 0.6Ω, 0.8Ω, 1.2Ω). If you are upgrading from the XLIM Pro, XLIM SE, or XLIM GO 2, your existing pods will work immediately. The only exception is the XLIM C (changeable coil) pods, which are not compatible. NeXLIM cartridges are also not compatible with any XLIM device.

Most reviewers report a full day to a day and a half with regular use. Heavy vapers who chain-vape at higher wattages (20-30W) can expect a full day. Light users running lower resistance pods at 10-18W may stretch to two or three days. OXVA rates the 1500mAh battery for up to five days of light use. When you need to recharge, the 5V/2A USB-C connection reaches 80% in about 30 minutes, so a short top-up during a break can keep you going all day.

Yes, despite the "Pro" name. The Photon Chip auto-detects your pod and sets the wattage for you, so you never need to touch the settings if you do not want to. You can lock the fire button and use auto-draw exclusively for a completely hands-off experience. The included 0.8Ω pod with a tighter airflow setting and 20mg nicotine salt provides a straightforward cigarette-style draw. The screen and manual wattage controls are there when you want them, but they are entirely optional. If you prefer an even simpler device with no screen or buttons at all, consider the XLIM GO 2.

The XLIM Pro 3 upgrades every major component. The battery increases from 1000mAh to 1500mAh (50% larger). The screen grows from a small 0.56-inch display to a 1.05-inch HD colour screen (88% larger). The new Photon Chip with Pulse System replaces the standard chipset, adding consistent flavour output at low battery. The body material upgrades from IML plastic to zinc alloy for a premium feel. Pod compatibility remains the same across both devices, so any XLIM pods you already own will work with the Pro 3.

The XLIM Pro 3 is a refillable pod system that costs significantly less per use than disposable vapes over time. You choose your own e-liquid flavours, nicotine strength, and VG/PG ratio instead of being limited to pre-filled options. The Pulse System and UniTech 2.0 coils deliver flavour quality that reviewers consistently rate above most disposable devices, and you get a screen, adjustable wattage, and multiple pod options for customization. Each XLIM V3 pod lasts several weeks with regular use before needing replacement.
