Why choose the Nord 5?
The Nord 5 is SMOK's answer to people who want one device to do both jobs. Dual-side airflow means you can close it down for a tight mouth-to-lung draw or open it up for direct-lung, and 5 to 80W of adjustable power backs that up. The OLED screen shows wattage, resistance, puff count and battery, so nothing is guesswork. SMOK is the biggest name in this category and the Nord line is the reason why.

FAQ
Which coils does the Nord 5 use?
SMOK RPM 3 mesh coils. They come in 0.15Ω for higher wattage and 0.23Ω for a more balanced output, and they press-fit into the pod.
Can it do MTL as well as DTL?
Yes. The dual-side airflow slider is stepless, so you can close it right down for a tight cigarette-like draw or open it up for direct-lung.
How long does it take to charge?
SMOK states a full charge from low battery takes up to one hour and forty minutes over Type-C.
Why is the pod 2ml?
UK TPD rules cap pod capacity at 2ml. SMOK makes larger pods for markets without that cap.
