Frequently asked questions about the SMOK NORD 5
Q: How long does the NORD 5 battery last?
A: This depends on personal use. The SMOK NORD 5 has a built-in 2000mAh lithium-ion battery. If you are a casual vapour, the NORD 5 battery will last you close to a full day. If you are a heavy vapour, expect to charge the SMOK NORD 5 once throughout the day. The convenient Type-C charging port allows you to recharge your battery quickly just about anywhere!
Q: What is your warranty on the SMOK NORD 5?
A: As with all of our starter kits, the SMOK NORD 5 comes with a full 60-day warranty against manufacture defects. This warranty only begins when the product arrives at your door. For any issues with your NORD 5, you may call us at 1-844-286-VAPE, or fill out a support ticket. You can also contact SMOK support directly at support@smoktech.com.
Q: How often should I replace my NORD 5 Pod?
A: The life of your pod is determined by the frequency of use and the type of e-liquid used (i.e. PG vs VG ratio). Higher VG e-liquids may be thicker and therefore harder on the warming elements of the NORD 5. Based on the device specifications higher PG e-liquids, such as Canada Vapes E-liquid, or Nic Salts, would be ideal. When the user begins to experience leaking, reduction in flavour, and/or a reduction in vapour production. Simply replace the pod with a new one.
Q: Pods are new to me. What should I know?
A: No problem, everyone starts somewhere. Here are a few tips we hope you find helpful:
- Fill new & unused pods with e-liquid by pulling out the silicone stopper at the side-fill port. Be gentle.
- Only the indented bottom part of the stopper should be removed (Not the entire silicone stopper)
- Do not overfill the cartridge/pod. 80% full works best.
- Insert the silicone stopper & set the entire unit aside for several minutes to allow full saturation. This will reduce the likelihood of unpleasant ‘dry hits’.
- When reinserting the cartridge ensure the pressure sensor inside the battery and the sensor hole on the pod are aligned on the same side
- Avoid allowing the pod to get to less than 20% full with e-liquid. This prevents the coil from drying out.

Great battery life. Big tank. The little rubber flap over the fill port has broken off tho. But pretty good otherwise.
Alexi –
I don’t recommend the pods don’t last long. I’ve been through 3 pods since the binging of February till now February 29 I don’t drop my vape that often my bf said I’ve dropped twice this month but I think it’s from having to fill it out and refill it once every day and that’s causing it to split in half so not worth it to me the border 4 did the same thing to me but other then the pond being shitty. I like them.

While being a little larger than previous models, the increased tank capacity and battery life are certainly quality of life improvements. I’m filling and charging less frequently.
The Nord 5 still maintains a stealthy profile and fits easily enough into your pocket.

Way too large. Isn’t usable for me

Have been vaping since 2015 and this by FAR is my favorite. I needed something that didn’t require constant refilling/recharging … and now I have found it! Yay!
