DotMod DotBox
The DotMod DotBox is a box mod kit for vapers who've outgrown a pod kit and want proper power in hand, with the DotBox 220W V2 the model we stock here. It comes in five colours and carries a clear 1.08 inch screen so you can see your settings at a glance. Buy it direct from Vape & E-Liquid and you know exactly what you're getting before it lands on your doorstep.
The DotMod DotBox
The DotMod DotBox is DotMod's box mod, and the DotBox 220W V2 is the model we stock: a dual 18650 mod that fires from 5 to 220W, sold as a kit with the top fill dotTank Max V2. It is built for direct lung vaping on high VG shortfills, which makes it a different kind of kit from DotMod's DotPod pod range.
What is a box mod?
A box mod is a vape battery in a box-shaped body, usually running on removable 18650 cells, with a separate tank screwed on top through a standard 510 connection. It gives you more power, a bigger screen and more settings than a pod kit, in exchange for more size and weight.

How to choose the DotMod DotBox
At a glance
- The DotBox 220W V2 fires from 5 to 220W on two 18650 batteries
- The batteries are not included, so order a matched pair with the kit
- The dotTank Max V2 suits a restricted to direct lung draw on high VG shortfills
- Two DotCoil V2 coils come in the box
- If you are new to refillable kits, a DotPod is the easier start
1. Check a box mod suits you
The DotBox is for vapers who already use a sub-ohm tank, or who have outgrown a pod kit and want a looser, bigger draw. If you vape nic salts on a tight draw, a box mod is the wrong tool; a DotPod gives you the same DotMod build in a pocket-sized pod kit.
2. Sort the batteries first
The DotBox runs on two 18650 cells, and they are not in the box. Buy a matched pair of the same make, model and age, keep them together, and replace them together so they charge and drain evenly. The mod charges over USB-C, but an external charger is the better habit if you vape at high wattage.
3. Set the power
Most people leave the DotBox in wattage mode and set the power within the range printed on the coil. Start at the low end and step up a few watts at a time until the flavour peaks; going past the top of the range burns the coil faster. Curve lets you shape the power through each puff, and Boost adds a stronger start to every draw.
4. Fill it with the right e-liquid
The dotTank Max V2 has adjustable top airflow and an 810 widebore drip tip, so it is built for high VG shortfills, usually 70/30 or higher. A 50/50 or nic salt is too thin for a sub-ohm coil and will flood and spit. Prime each new DotCoil V2 before you vape on it.
Before you buy
- A sub-ohm, direct lung draw is what you want
- Two 18650 batteries, bought as a matched pair
- A high VG shortfill for the dotTank Max V2
- Spare DotCoil V2 coils for when the first two wear out

DotBox FAQs
What is the difference between the DotBox 100W and 220W?
Power. The DotBox 220W V2 fires up to 220W on two 18650 batteries and is the DotBox on this page, while the DotBox 100W tops out at 100W. For direct lung vaping on shortfills, the 220W V2 gives you more headroom for low resistance coils.
What batteries does the DotBox 220W V2 take?
Two 18650 cells, which are not included. Use a matched pair with a continuous discharge rating that covers the wattage you vape at, and replace both at the same time.
Can I use nic salts in the DotBox?
Not in the dotTank Max V2. Its sub-ohm coils and open airflow are built for high VG shortfills, and a thin nic salt floods the coil. For nic salts, a DotPod is the right DotMod kit.
Can I use the DotBox for mouth to lung vaping?
Not really. At its tightest, the dotTank Max V2 closes down to a restricted lung draw, which is still looser than a mouth to lung pull. For MTL, a DotPod is the better fit.
Does the DotBox 220W V2 have temperature control?
Yes. Three of its seven modes, NI, TI and SS, are temperature control modes for nickel, titanium and stainless steel coils. Most people run it in standard wattage mode, which works with any coil.
How long do DotCoil V2 coils last?
For most daily vapers, one to two weeks. Sweet, dark shortfills gum up a coil faster than light fruit ones, so change it when the flavour turns flat or burnt. Our guide on how long coils last covers the signs.
