DotMod DotPod Lite 2: Draw feels tight or restricted
Written by Vape & E-Liquid Team Last checked
Every draw feels harder than it should, as if you are pulling through a blocked straw. The airflow feels noticeably tighter than when the device was new.
Why this happens
- Airflow control ring or slider is set to a more restricted position
- E-liquid residue has built up around the airflow inlet, partially blocking it
How to fix it
- Locate the adjustable airflow control on the device and open it further, turning or sliding it towards the most open setting, then test your draw.
- Inspect the airflow inlet for any e-liquid residue or debris. If you spot any, wipe the area clean with a dry cotton swab and allow it to dry fully before vaping.
Other DotMod DotPod Lite 2 problems
- Pod is in but device isn't hitting The pod is seated in the device but nothing happens when you draw or fire. No vapour, no indicator light, no response at all.
- Understanding the battery level display and charging lights The display or charging light is showing something unexpected and you are not sure what the battery level reading means, or whether the device is charging correctly.
