Argus pod guide: which Voopoo pod fits your Argus kit

Most people searching for an Argus pod are standing in front of a device that has stopped producing flavour, holding a pod that looks almost like three others. Voopoo has made several generations of Argus pods since the first one, and they are not all interchangeable. A 2ml pod that clips onto magnets will not sit in a device built for the 3ml top-fill pod, and the other way round. This guide sorts out the pods, shows which kits take which, and tells you what to buy when the pod needs replacing.

The three Argus pods, side by side

Every Argus pod has its coil built into the cartridge. When the flavour fades or the coil burns, you replace the whole pod, not a loose coil. Our range comes down to three pod families, and the table shows how they differ.

Pod	Size and fill	Resistances we list	Our price
Argus Replacement Pod	2ml, magnetic clip-in	0.4, 0.7, 1.0 and 1.2 ohm	PKR 1,799
Argus V2 Replacement Pod	3ml, top fill	0.4 and 0.7 ohm	PKR 1,849
Argus E40 Replacement Pod	4.5ml, side fill	0.3, 0.45 and 0.6 ohm	PKR 1,849

Every pod above sits in our Argus pod and replacement pod range. Pick the row that matches your device first, and only then choose a resistance.

The 2ml pod: the first Argus generation

This is the pod for the first Argus Pod and its smaller siblings. Voopoo makes it in 0.7 and 1.2 ohm for mouth-to-lung vaping, and our product page lists it for the Argus Pod, P1 and Z, among others. The Argus Pod kit uses it with an 800mAh battery and a small OLED screen. If your device is one of these older, slimmer models, this is the pod to keep spare.

The 3ml V2 top-fill pod: the current workhorse

The V2 is the pod that ships in the Argus G2 Mini, G2 Mini Plus and Matrix kits. You fill it from the top, it holds 3ml (2ml in markets with TPD rules), and Voopoo rates the coil for up to 100ml of e-liquid. Our product page lists it as a fit for the G2 Mini, G3, G3 Mini, G4 Mini, A and P2 as well. Voopoo says the 0.4 ohm version is only for Argus devices that reach 30W, and the 0.7 ohm is the one for 14 to 18W.

The E40 pod: a different design

The Argus E40 does not take the other two. Its 4.5ml side-fill pod is built on Voopoo's PnP X coil design, and Voopoo rates that coil for up to 100ml of e-liquid as well. If you own an E40, buy this pod and nothing else.

Which pod goes with which Argus kit

Voopoo's own site describes the Argus Multi-Ohm cartridge as the first pod to combine 0.4, 0.7 and 1.0 ohm in one cartridge (Voopoo's Argus Multi-Ohm page), and it ships in the Argus G4 Mini. Beyond that, the match between kit and pod is mostly about generation. The kits below are the ones people ask us about most.

Kit	Battery and output	Pod it uses	Our price
Argus Z	900mAh, up to 17W	2ml pod, 0.7 ohm included	PKR 4,099
Argus G2 Mini	1200mAh, 5 to 30W	3ml V2 top-fill, 0.7 ohm fitted	PKR 4,399
Argus G3 Mini	1350mAh, up to 30W, automatic	3ml V2 top-fill, 0.7 ohm included	PKR 5,499

The Argus G4 Mini (1650mAh, 5 to 30W) takes the 3.5ml Multi-Ohm cartridge, and our product page lists the V2 pod as a fit for it too. Browse the full line in our open pod kits, or compare several brands in our guide to the best pod kits in Pakistan.

Choosing the resistance

Resistance decides how the draw feels and which e-liquid suits it. Voopoo pairs its 0.4 ohm pods with freebase liquid for a looser, more airy draw, and its 0.7 and 1.0 ohm pods with nic salt for a tighter mouth-to-lung draw. It places the 1.2 ohm pod at the tightest end of the range. For these pods Voopoo recommends 30 mg/ml or lower.

Two rules save money. First, do not put a 0.4 ohm pod in a low-power device like the Argus Z, which tops out at 17W. Second, if you are unsure, the 0.7 ohm pod is the one most kits ship with, so it is a sensible place to start when you reorder.

How to know when to change the pod

Because the coil is inside, the pod is a consumable. Signs it has run its course are a burnt taste that stays after a fresh fill, flavour that has gone flat, or a pod that leaks from the base. A new pod fixes all three. Voopoo quotes up to 100ml of e-liquid per coil on its V2 and E40 pods, but that is the maker's figure, and your own use, wattage and liquid will change it. If you notice the taste going, change the pod rather than pushing the old one.

Buying the right pod, and checking the box

Match the family first (2ml, 3ml V2 or E40), then the resistance. Our product pages list the kits each pod fits, so check the page for your exact model before ordering. Scratch the security code on the box and check it on Voopoo's security code page. Our page on where our stock comes from covers the rest, and our guide to checking a scratch code walks through the steps for Voopoo and other brands.
