The Voopoo Vinci is super popular because it’s user-friendly and versatile, making it perfect for both beginners and experienced vapers. Let’s dive in and get you vaping like a pro in no time!

What is Voopoo Vinci?

First off, let's talk about what the Voopoo Vinci actually is. The Voopoo Vinci is a pod mod, which is basically a hybrid between a pod system and a traditional box mod. This means you get the simplicity of a pod system with some of the advanced features of a mod. The Vinci is known for its intelligent features, ease of use, and great performance. It's a compact device that fits comfortably in your hand and is super portable, making it an excellent choice for vaping on the go. The Vinci uses refillable pods, so you can use your favorite e-liquids. Plus, it has adjustable wattage, allowing you to customize your vaping experience to suit your preferences. Whether you're into mouth-to-lung (MTL) vaping or direct-lung (DL) vaping, the Vinci can handle it all. And with its GENE.AI chip, the Vinci offers smart features like coil recognition and puff recording. Trust me; once you get the hang of it, you'll love it!

Unboxing Your Voopoo Vinci

Alright, let's start with unboxing your Voopoo Vinci. When you first get your kit, you'll want to make sure you have everything you need. Here’s what you should find in the box:

• Voopoo Vinci device
• One or two Vinci pods (depending on the kit)
• Two coils (usually a 0.3ohm PnP-VM1 coil and a 0.8ohm PnP-R1 coil)
• USB charging cable
• User manual
• Warranty card

Take everything out of the box and give it a good look. Read the user manual – I know, it sounds boring, but it’s packed with important info about your device. Make sure all the components are there. Once you’ve confirmed everything is present, you’re ready to move on to the next step.

Charging the Device

Before you start vaping, you need to charge your Voopoo Vinci. The device has an internal battery, and you’ll want to make sure it’s fully charged for the best performance. Here’s how to do it:

1. Plug the USB cable into the charging port on the Vinci.
2. Connect the other end of the USB cable to a power source, like a computer or a wall adapter.
3. The screen will light up and show the battery charging animation. Once the battery is full, the screen will indicate that it’s 100% charged.

It usually takes about an hour to fully charge the Vinci. While it’s charging, don’t try to use it. Just let it charge completely to maximize the battery life. Once it’s fully charged, unplug it, and you’re good to go!

Filling the Pod

Now, let's get to filling the pod with your favorite e-liquid. This is a crucial step, so pay attention:

1. Remove the pod from the device. Just pull it out; it’s held in place by magnets.
2. Locate the rubber stopper on the side of the pod. This is the fill port.
3. Carefully open the rubber stopper.
4. Insert the nozzle of your e-liquid bottle into the fill port.
5. Squeeze the bottle to fill the pod. Be careful not to overfill it. Leave a little bit of space at the top.
6. Close the rubber stopper securely.
7. If it’s a brand-new coil, let the pod sit for about 5-10 minutes to allow the coil to saturate with e-liquid. This prevents dry hits, which are no fun.

Once the coil is saturated, you’re ready to pop the pod back into the device. Make sure it clicks into place, and you’re all set.

Understanding the Buttons and Screen

To really master the Voopoo Vinci, you need to understand the buttons and screen. The Vinci has a few buttons and a screen that displays important information. Here’s a quick rundown:

• Fire Button: This is the main button you’ll use to activate the device and take a puff. Press and hold it while inhaling.
• Up and Down Buttons: These buttons are used to adjust the wattage. You can increase or decrease the power output to customize your vaping experience.
• Screen: The screen displays various information, including:
  • Wattage: The current power output.
  • Battery Life: How much battery you have left.
  • Coil Resistance: The resistance of the coil in the pod.
  • Voltage: The voltage output.
  • Puff Counter: How many puffs you’ve taken.
  • Vaping Time: The duration of your current puff.

Familiarize yourself with these elements, and you’ll be navigating the Vinci like a pro in no time.

Power On/Off and Basic Operation

Okay, let's cover how to power the device on and off, as well as basic operation. This is pretty straightforward:

• Power On: Press the fire button five times quickly. The screen will light up, indicating that the device is on.
• Power Off: Press the fire button five times quickly again. The screen will turn off, showing that the device is off.

To vape, simply press and hold the fire button while inhaling through the mouthpiece. Release the fire button when you’re done inhaling. The Vinci also has an auto-draw feature, which means you can just inhale without pressing the fire button. This is great for convenience, but some people prefer using the button.

Adjusting the Wattage

One of the cool things about the Voopoo Vinci is that you can adjust the wattage. This allows you to fine-tune your vaping experience. Here’s how to do it:

1. Make sure the device is powered on.
2. Use the up and down buttons to increase or decrease the wattage.
3. The screen will display the current wattage.

Start with a lower wattage and gradually increase it until you find your sweet spot. Pay attention to the coil rating. The coils that come with the Vinci have a recommended wattage range printed on them. Stay within that range to avoid burning the coil.

Using Different Coils

The Voopoo Vinci is compatible with a range of PnP (Plug and Play) coils, which gives you a lot of flexibility. Using different coils can dramatically change your vaping experience. Here’s what you need to know:

• 0.3ohm PnP-VM1 Coil: This coil is designed for direct-lung (DL) vaping and works best at higher wattages (32-40W). It produces large clouds and intense flavor.
• 0.8ohm PnP-R1 Coil: This coil is designed for mouth-to-lung (MTL) vaping and works best at lower wattages (12-18W). It provides a tighter draw and is great for nicotine salts.

When you switch coils, make sure to adjust the wattage accordingly. Also, remember to prime the new coil by letting it sit in the filled pod for 5-10 minutes before vaping.

Maintenance and Cleaning

To keep your Voopoo Vinci in tip-top shape, maintenance and cleaning are essential. Here are a few tips:

• Clean the Pod: Regularly clean the pod with a dry cloth to remove any condensation or e-liquid buildup.
• Replace the Coil: Coils don’t last forever. When you notice a decrease in flavor or vapor production, it’s time to replace the coil. This is usually every 1-2 weeks, depending on how much you vape.
• Clean the Device: Wipe down the device with a damp cloth to keep it clean and free of dust.
• Check the Connections: Make sure the pod and coil are securely connected to the device.

By following these simple maintenance tips, you can extend the life of your Voopoo Vinci and keep it performing at its best.

Troubleshooting Common Issues

Even with a great device like the Voopoo Vinci, you might run into some issues. Here are a few common problems and how to fix them:

• No Vapor:
  • Make sure the device is powered on.
  • Check if the pod is empty. If so, refill it.
  • Ensure the coil is properly installed and making good contact.
  • The coil may be burnt out and needs replacing.
• Leaking:
  • Make sure the pod is properly installed.
  • Check if the fill port is securely closed.
  • Avoid overfilling the pod.
  • The coil may be flooded. Try blowing gently into the mouthpiece to clear excess e-liquid.
• Dry Hits:
  • Make sure the pod is filled with e-liquid.
  • Let the coil saturate for 5-10 minutes after filling the pod.
  • Lower the wattage.
• Device Not Charging:
  • Try a different USB cable and power source.
  • Make sure the charging port is clean.

If you’ve tried these solutions and are still having problems, consult the user manual or contact Voopoo customer support.

Safety Tips

Before you start vaping, it’s important to keep safety tips in mind:

• Use the Right E-Liquid: Make sure you’re using e-liquid that is compatible with your device and coil. High-VG e-liquids work best with DL coils, while high-PG e-liquids are better for MTL coils.
• Store E-Liquid Safely: Keep e-liquid out of reach of children and pets. E-liquid can be harmful if swallowed.
• Don’t Overcharge: Don’t leave your device charging overnight. Once it’s fully charged, unplug it to prevent damage to the battery.
• Use the Correct Wattage: Always stay within the recommended wattage range for your coil to avoid burning it out.
• Stay Hydrated: Vaping can dehydrate you, so make sure to drink plenty of water.
