Ijoy Vape Kits
Ijoy builds vaping hardware with a bias towards power. The brand is best known for its Captain series of box mods and for sub ohm tanks aimed at direct to lung vapers, so the kits carrying the name tend to sit at the performance end of the market rather than the pocket friendly end. This collection holds the Ijoy vape kits currently listed at Vapestore Direct.
Stock here is thin at the time of writing. The Ijoy Captain 2 180W Kit is the only device showing as available at £24.99, so treat this page as a guide to what an Ijoy kit is and who it suits rather than a wide choice of models. Everything sold is rechargeable and sold to adults aged 18 and over only.
What you get with a kit
A kit means the powered body and an atomiser bought together, so there is nothing else to source before your first fill beyond e-liquid. The Captain 2 is a regulated box mod kit rated to 180W. Output at that level is aimed squarely at sub ohm coils and direct to lung vaping, where the wattage is used to bring a large mesh coil up to temperature quickly and lift vapour production.
Box mod kits compared with pod kits
A pod kit is small, low powered and usually draw activated. It suits mouth to lung vaping and a tight cigarette style draw. A box mod kit is larger, carries a screen and a chipset and lets you set wattage precisely. The trade off is bulk and weight against battery life and control. If you have never vaped before, a pod kit is the easier start. If you already run sub ohm coils, a mod earns the space it takes up.
Batteries and charging
High output kits in the 180W class are designed around removable cells rather than a small sealed battery. Removable cells let you carry a charged spare instead of waiting on a USB port. They also bring responsibilities. Use cells with a continuous discharge rating that comfortably exceeds the current your coil will pull, carry them in a plastic case rather than loose in a pocket with keys or coins and retire any cell whose wrap is torn.
Coils, e-liquid and running costs
The device is the one off cost. Coils and e-liquid are the recurring one and within a couple of months they will outweigh the price of the kit. Sub ohm coils below 1.0 ohm want a high VG shortfill at a low nicotine strength of 0mg to 6mg. Before committing to any kit, check that replacement coils for it are widely stocked, because a discontinued coil family strands an otherwise good device.

Ijoy kit questions answered
Which Ijoy kits are in stock?
Availability moves, so the products listed on this page are the accurate answer at any given moment. When this page was written the Ijoy Captain 2 180W Kit was the only device showing as available at £24.99. If you are after a specific Ijoy model that is not showing, the team can tell you whether it is due back on 07827 210361 between 8.30am and 4.00pm.
Is an Ijoy kit suitable for a beginner?
A 180W box mod kit is more device than most first time vapers need. It is heavier, it runs sub ohm coils that get through e-liquid quickly and it expects you to understand wattage settings. An adult stepping away from cigarettes usually gets on better with a mouth to lung pod kit. A high output mod makes more sense as a second device once you know which draw style you prefer.
What batteries do high wattage kits use?
Regulated mods rated above roughly 80W are normally built around removable 18650 or 21700 cells rather than a sealed internal battery. Check the listing or the manual for the exact cell type before you order, then choose cells with a continuous discharge rating that comfortably exceeds what your coil will draw.
What e-liquid suits a sub ohm Ijoy kit?
Coils below 1.0 ohm need a thick high VG liquid, typically a 70/30 shortfill, at a low nicotine strength of 0mg, 3mg or 6mg. Thin 50/50 liquid seeps past the seals at that resistance and floods the coil. High strength nic salts are a poor match too, because a sub ohm coil delivers far more vapour per puff and 20mg will feel unpleasantly harsh.
How often should the coil be changed?
One to two weeks is typical for a mesh sub ohm coil in regular use. Dark, sweet or dessert flavours cut that down because sucralose caramelises onto the mesh. The warning signs are a muted or burnt taste, thinner vapour and a harsher draw. Priming properly adds noticeable life. Saturate the cotton through the ports, fill the tank and leave it standing for five minutes before the first draw.
Is delivery free and how quickly does it ship?
UK delivery is free on orders over £20. Orders placed on working days are picked and dispatched quickly. If you need to check stock or coil compatibility before ordering, call 07827 210361 between 8.30am and 4.00pm.
