The VooPoo Drag S3 is the latest in VooPoo's iconic Drag S lineup — a compact pod mod that packs serious features into a premium zinc alloy and leather body. With a 3000mAh built-in battery, 5–60W adjustable output, a 0.96" TFT colour screen, and full compatibility with VooPoo's PnP X coil platform, it's designed for vapers who want real control and build quality without the bulk of a traditional box mod.
The Drag S3 ships with an MTL-focused pod and coils optimized for tighter draws and nicotine salt e-liquids — making it an excellent choice for anyone stepping up from disposables or closed pod systems. But the PnP X platform also supports sub-ohm coils and a DTL pod (sold separately), so it scales with you if your preferences change.

PnP X Coil Platform — Why It Matters
The Drag S3 runs on VooPoo's PnP X coil platform, which is one of the most versatile coil ecosystems in the pod mod space. There are seven PnP X coil resistances available (ranging from 0.15Ω to 1.0Ω), covering everything from wide-open sub-ohm direct-lung draws to tight mouth-to-lung hits. The coils are press-fit — push the old one out, push a new one in, and keep using the same pod.
Reviewers consistently rate PnP X coils among the best stock coils on the market, with longevity of around 100mL of e-liquid per coil before needing replacement. The coil design also eliminates leaking by sealing the air passages at the bottom of the pod.
Included Coils
| Coil | Resistance | Style | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| PnP X 0.6Ω | 0.6ohm | Restricted Direct-Lung (RDL) | A slightly open draw with good flavour and moderate vapour. Versatile middle ground — works with both nic salts and freebase. |
| PnP X 0.8Ω | 0.8ohm | Mouth-to-Lung (MTL) | A tighter draw closer to a cigarette. Ideal for nicotine salt e-liquids at lower wattages. The most familiar feel for anyone coming from disposables. |
If you want to explore sub-ohm direct-lung vaping later, the PnP X DTL pod and lower-resistance coils (0.15Ω, 0.3Ω) are available separately and work with the same Drag S3 device.
Premium Build — Leather, Zinc Alloy, Compact
The Drag series has always been known for build quality, and the S3 continues that. The body is zinc alloy with a leather wrap on the sides and back — it feels solid and premium in hand without being heavy. At 124 mm tall and 33 mm wide, it's compact enough for a pocket while still providing a comfortable grip. The magnetic pod connection is firm and reliable.
Capacitive Unlock — No Accidental Firing
The Drag S3 has a capacitive touch sensor that unlocks the device when you touch it. This prevents the device from firing accidentally in your pocket — a common problem with button-fired devices. You can also switch to traditional 5-click locking if you prefer.

| Price (VTW) | $69.00 | $60.00 |
Bottom line: The Nord 6 wins on raw specs — bigger battery, higher wattage, larger touchscreen, and a lower price. The Drag S3 counters with a more premium build (leather + alloy), a more versatile coil ecosystem (7 PnP X options with proven ~100mL longevity), capacitive safety unlock, and a replaceable 510 drip tip. If you value build quality, coil flexibility, and a refined MTL experience, the Drag S3 is the better choice. If you want maximum battery and screen size at a lower price, the Nord 6 wins.
Frequently Asked Questions
What coils are compatible with the VooPoo Drag S3?
The Drag S3 uses PnP X coils, which come in seven resistances from 0.15Ω to 1.0Ω. The kit includes 0.6Ω (RDL) and 0.8Ω (MTL) coils. Lower-resistance coils (0.15Ω, 0.3Ω) for sub-ohm DTL vaping are available separately. All PnP X coils are press-fit into the pod. Note: PnP X coils are not compatible with older VooPoo PnP or TPP coils.
What e-liquid should I use with the Drag S3?
With the included 0.8Ω coil, nicotine salt e-liquids (10–20mg/mL, 50/50 VG/PG) work best for a tight MTL draw. With the 0.6Ω coil, you can use either nic salts at lower strength or freebase e-liquids (50–70% VG) for a slightly more open draw. VooPoo recommends e-liquid with 50–70% VG and no more than 10mg/mL nicotine for the higher-wattage coils.
How long does the battery last?
The 3000mAh battery comfortably lasts a full day or more for most MTL users at moderate wattages (15–25W). Heavier use at higher power will drain it faster, but USB-C 2.0A charging tops it back up quickly.
Is the Drag S3 good for beginners?
Yes — especially for anyone moving from disposables. The 0.8Ω coil paired with a nicotine salt e-liquid delivers a draw similar to a disposable. The screen shows wattage, resistance, and battery clearly, and the device auto-detects your coil and sets a recommended wattage. The capacitive unlock sensor prevents accidental firing. It's straightforward to use out of the box while offering room to grow.
Can I use the DTL pod with the Drag S3?
Yes. The Drag S3 is compatible with both PnP X pod types — MTL (included) and DTL (sold separately). The DTL pod has a wider 810 drip tip and larger airflow slots for a looser, cloudier draw. Pair it with 0.15Ω or 0.3Ω coils for a full sub-ohm experience.
What's the difference between the Drag S3 and the Drag X3?
The Drag S3 has a built-in 3000mAh battery and maxes out at 60W. The Drag X3 uses an external 18650 or 21700 battery (not included) and goes up to 80W with a larger 1.66" touchscreen. The S3 ships with an MTL pod and 0.6/0.8Ω coils; the X3 ships with a DTL pod and 0.15/0.3Ω coils. Both use the same PnP X platform — all pods and coils are interchangeable between devices.
How long do PnP X coils last?
VooPoo rates PnP X coils for approximately 100mL of e-liquid before needing replacement. Real-world longevity depends on your e-liquid sweetness, wattage, and usage frequency, but multiple reviewers have confirmed the coils consistently reach or approach this figure.
Can I buy the VooPoo Drag S3 online in Canada?
Yes. Vaping The Way ships free across Canada on orders over $75.00, and offers free same-day delivery in Regina, Saskatchewan Monday through Friday.
