How to Use the Vaporesso XROS 5 & XROS 5 Mini – Full Guide for Irish Vapers
If you've just picked up a Vaporesso XROS 5 or XROS 5 Mini, getting started is simple once you know the basics. These devices are designed to be beginner-friendly while still delivering excellent flavour and performance.
Quick Answer: To use a Vaporesso XROS 5, fill the pod with e-liquid, let it sit for 5–10 minutes, insert the pod into the device, and inhale to vape. The device is draw-activated, so no buttons are needed on the Mini version.
What’s the Difference Between XROS 5 and XROS 5 Mini?
Both devices are part of the Vaporesso XROS range and use the same pods, but there are a few key differences:
- XROS 5: Button + adjustable settings
- XROS 5 Mini: Simpler, fully draw-activated
Both are excellent choices for beginners and work perfectly with nic salt e-liquids.
Step-by-Step: How to Set Up Your XROS 5
- Remove the pod from your XROS device.
- Open the top-fill port (remove the mouthpiece).
- Fill the pod with your chosen e-liquid.
- Close the pod securely.
- Leave it to sit for 5–10 minutes if it’s a new pod.
- Insert the pod back into the device.
- Inhale to start vaping.
This process is the same for both the XROS 5 and Mini.
How to Fill a XROS Pod Properly
Filling your XROS pods correctly helps avoid leaks and improves coil lifespan.
- Remove the mouthpiece to reveal the fill port
- Insert your e-liquid nozzle carefully
- Fill slowly and avoid overfilling
- Close the pod firmly before use
Using high-quality nic salts will give the best performance.
Best Settings for the XROS 5
The XROS 5 allows for adjustable airflow and power levels depending on the model.
- Tighter airflow → stronger throat hit
- Looser airflow → more vapour
Most beginners should start with a tighter draw for a cigarette-like experience.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Not letting a new pod sit before vaping
- Overfilling the pod
- Using the wrong e-liquid type
- Using an old or burnt pod
If performance drops, switching to fresh XROS pods usually fixes the issue.
