Client Challenge

Build Differentiated Big Smoke DTL Hardware With Exclusive IP

The client is a new emerging vape brand targeting sub-ohm DTL vapers. They wanted a high-performance pod system with huge vapor output, while generic off-the-shelf pod kits suffered from leakage and unstable smoke volume. They needed exclusive patented mechanical design to avoid copycats and build unique selling points.

01

Big vapor & stable DTL performance

Generic pod structures can not maintain consistent big smoke under high power settings.

02

Anti-leakage requirement

Eliminate liquid leakage problem under high airflow and sub-ohm working conditions.

03

Exclusive patented structure

Need original mechanical design to apply for patent and prevent competitors copying.

04

Batch consistency & compact form

Keep compact body size while ensuring vapor and flavor consistency in mass production.
