Design
The device comes in 8 different colors. I received the Snow Blue to test for this review. It has an OLED screen on the front, with the fire button above it and a + and – button below it. The little screen shows you the battery, wattage, mode, resistance and a puff counter. The device itself is perfectly round, with a little panel sticking out where the buttons and screen are. It has a leather-looking and feeling finish around it, with branding for the device on it. Honestly, it’s a very good and subtle-looking little device, with a lot of power to it. I honestly think this is one of the best-looking devices Voopoo has put out there.
Pod & Coils
This seems to be a pretty new pod that Voopoo is very proud of, and for good reason if you ask me. Even though it has side fill, it doesn’t bother me that much. The pod has a pretty big capacity of 5ml, so taking it out of the device to fill it, doesn’t seem like a problem. Side and bottom fill devices are also less prone to leaking, so I understand why manufacturers still go for it. The rubber plug you have to pull out to fill it feels a little bit flimsy, but it seems to hold up while refilling the pod.
In the box were a 0.3 ohm and a 0.45 ohm coil and since I’m more directed toward the MTL and RDL vaping, I started with the 0.45 ohm coil. Flavor and cloud production both really impressed me on this device. It seems to be perfect for the vapers who like a little bit more restricted draw.
The 0.3 ohm coil is definitely designed for the cloud chasers who go for a DTL style of vaping. I was really surprised by the huge clouds this little device produced.
Performance
Honestly, a 1500mAh battery doesn’t sound that big for a device that does RDL and DTL, but it feels a lot bigger than that. I’ve personally been switching between MTL and RDL a lot when using it, with the occasional DTL hit as well, but how long the battery lasted still really surprised me. It got me through a day easily with normal to heavy use.
You can adjust the airflow on the Drag H40 Pod System by twisting the pod when it’s in the device. There are these teeth sticking out of the part where the pod sits and the pod itself has grooves that these fit into perfectly. When turning the pod, it makes those teeth turn with it, controlling how big or small your airflow hole is. Because of how accurate the airflow control is, you can easily do an MTL style of vaping with the 0.45 coil if you wanted to. The device is also compatible with the series PnP coils and there is an MTL mouthpiece sold separately, so that would of course be better for a proper MTL draw. You can also put any 510 drip tip you have on there. The options this device delivers really give you the opportunity to finetune your vaping experience. Whether you like DTL, RDL or MTL, the drag is easily adjustable to your liking.
The fire button for the device is very responsive. When pressing it, vapor is immediately released for a smooth and flavorful inhale. I didn’t experience any lag or delay. I also didn’t experience any significant leaking with the device, other than the occasional little drops on the magnets that hold the pod.
The device also has smart mode and RBA mode. In RBA mode, you can choose to use any wattage ranging from 5 to 40 watts. Smart mode makes sure you can only use the wattage that is recommended for the resistance of the coil that you are using.

Verdict
The tiny Voopoo Drag H40 Pod Kit really surprised me. There is a lot to like about it: design, performance and versatility. It has responsive buttons, a comfortable form factor and a responsive button that doesn’t seem to fail. The 5ml pod capacity is pretty impressive compared to other pods on the market.
The 1500mAh battery offers longevity and feels bigger than claimed, even when vaping RDL and DTL. It’s user-friendly, featuring its smart mode option for coil protection and the innovative implementation of the airflow control.
I think it’s a big pro that the device uses PnP coils that are loved by myself and a lot of other people in the vaping world. The only little downfalls of the device to me are that it doesn’t have autodraw and that the package comes without any MTL equipment. The button however being so responsive makes up for this and those MTL parts are easily bought separately.
Overall if you ask me I’d say it would be a good, versatile and reliable option to have as a vape and I would definitely recommend it.
