Shop box mods at NYX Vape. A box mod is the powered half of a two-part setup - you pair it with a 510-thread tank of your choice. This is the most powerful and most configurable category we carry, and it is aimed at experienced direct-lung vapers rather than anyone starting out. Free Canada-wide shipping on orders over $99.

If you are coming off disposables or cigarettes, a pod kit is the better starting point. A box mod is what you move to if you later want more vapour and full control over wattage.
A 510-thread tank. The mod supplies power; the tank holds the e-liquid and the coil. They are bought separately unless you choose a starter kit that includes both.
Batteries and a charger, for most mods. Many box mods take removable cells rather than a built-in battery. Buy cells from a reputable brand, carry them in a case rather than loose in a pocket, and replace any cell with a torn wrap.
Low-strength freebase e-liquid. High-strength salt nicotine is not suitable for sub-ohm direct-lung vaping - the nicotine delivery would be far too high.
Spare coils. Sub-ohm coils wear faster than pod coils because they run hotter and move more e-liquid.
Every box mod we sell is regulated - it has a chipset that controls output, checks the coil's resistance and cuts off if something is wrong. That protection is the reason to buy a regulated device rather than a mechanical one.
Stay inside the wattage range printed on your coil, keep the battery contacts clean, and stop using any cell whose wrap is damaged.
The powered part of a two-piece setup. It provides adjustable wattage and takes a separate 510-thread tank, giving far more control and power than an all-in-one pod kit.
For many box mods, yes - they take removable cells that are bought along with a charger. Some have a built-in battery that charges over USB. The product page says which.
Generally no. A pod kit is simpler, cheaper to run and better suited to the tighter draw and higher nicotine strengths most people start with.
Low-strength freebase e-liquid. Sub-ohm coils produce a lot of vapour, so high-strength salt nicotine would deliver far too much nicotine.
The standard screw fitting between a mod and a tank. Almost all box mods and sub-ohm tanks use it, so they are broadly interchangeable.
NYX Vape ships across Canada with free shipping on orders over $99 and stock at six Greater Toronto Area stores. Same-day local delivery across the Toronto GTA is free on orders over $75.
