Introduction
While big and bulky vape mods have some advantages — they are powerful, they have multiple batteries, and they can have super high wattage capabilities. However, there’s one thing that they are not… small or discreet! While mini mods may not have the wattage output of some of their bigger brothers, they do provide several advantages that large mods don’t, including ease of mobility, easy storage, and sometimes most importantly, discreteness.
You can’t talk about small vapes with including pod vapes as these tend to be much small than their vape mod counterparts. Unfortunately, some small vapes don’t offer the performance that many vapers seek, and when buying small vape mods and pod systems, it’s important to select one that’s going to offer you the qualities that you prefer most.
Which small device should you choose? To make your selection simple, we’ve put together a list of the 10 best vape mods for small size, easy storage, compactness and discreteness!
SMOK Novo 2
First things first, this is the most popular vape kit in our online vape shop and there are many reasons why. Probably the reason you’re reading this is because you want a small vape, and it doesn’t get much smaller than the SMOK Novo 2. Super stealthy you can hold it in your hand without anyone knowing.
UPDATE (September 2021): It was recently announced we have a new Novo inbound, SMOK Novo 2S. Featuring new 1.8mL clear pods which feature a 0.9 Ohm mesh coil, designed to be the perfect mouth to lung vape. Other changes include the charging port, Micro USB has been replaced by Type-C USB for faster and easier charging.
You can visit our SMOK Novo 2S product page and sign up to get instant notification as soon as we get it in stock.
Despite its size there is no sacrifice in performance at all. The Novo 2 really kicks ass! Ex-smokers and ex-JUULers particularly love how well the Novo 2 performs. Because the restricted draw is similar to smoking a cigarette. Given the small size it’s incredible that SMOK have managed to fit in a 800mAh battery. Vape juice capacity is 2mL but if your concerned about that you can always buy a few extra SMOK Novo 2 pods or carry your juice with you. Changing pods couldn’t be easier, just pull it out and a when you put it back the pods clicks into place.
PROS
😀 Super small and discreet
😀 Very easy to change pods
😀 Colossal performance
😀 Good battery life
😀 Nice range of vibrant colors
CONS
😞 Coils not replaceable
😞 Vape juice window not very helpful
😞 Small hole for refilling
Customer Review: “I had a regular Smok Novo but got the Novo 2 about two weeks ago. Every problem I ever had with the Novo was addressed in this version! Battery lasts all day and well into the night, charges fast, NO LEAKS(!) and it’s smaller- feels more like a cigarette. Plus NO BUTTON! I hated the button. What an awesome product!!!”
Customer Review: “It’s small and very discreet. You can pretty much vape anywhere with this. No leaks whatsoever.”
Customer Review: “If you like simple and efficient this is the device for you. It’s just like the original novo but with a slightly better draw and a better battery. Probably the best small salt nic device out there.”
Customer Review: “Switched from a JUUL to the Novo 2 and what a world of difference. Battery life is awesome, went over 24 hours before needing a charge. Easy to refill the pods, it hits great every time, I love this thing.””
Suorin Edge
It really doesn’t get much smaller than the Suorin Edge Pod System. Just 72mm high, 49mm wide and 12mm deep it’s super sleek design is stunning. The innovation on the Suorin Edge is the dual battery system. In the kit you get two 230mAh batteries so that you can simply switch out the dead battery and replace it. Type-C USB charging means that the dead battery is fully charged in just 30min. Never run out of a charge again.
Pods aren’t sold with the kit you need to buy separately.
The refillable pods have a 1.5mL juice capacity and contain a 1.4Ohm coil which makes it perfect for vaping salt nic juice MTL. On the side is a lock switch which you can press three times to lock the device and stop draw activation.
Small pod vapes don’t get much better or easier to use than the Suorin Edge.
PROS
😀 Amazing flavor
😀 Small and compact
😀 Very easy to use
😀 Generous puff count for a disposable
CONS

😀 Disposable vaping can become expensive over time
Customer Reviews: “Great pull, battery life is sufficient, plus the 2 battery system ingenious! My vape is always charged! This vape is compact and discrete for the stealth use.”
Customer Reviews: “This is one of three devices I bought to test as a replacement for my JUUL as I was looking to change to a 0% nicotine menthol. This was the best one. I can use it all day on one charge of the battery and just plug it in when I go to sleep for the next day’s use. It has a small, sleek design only slightly larger than the JUUL so it’s perfectiscreet vaping. Very light, and I like the refillable pod system. Has the safety on/off switch if you need it (although that’s not something I utilize).”
Vaptio Beco Mesh Disposable
When it comes to small and compact vaping there aren’t many devices that can compete with a disposable. Without the need to be charged or refilled a disposable can be even more compact than even the smallest pod system. Vaptio Beco Mesh provides a super hassle free vaping experience.

- You’re looking for an everyday vape that you can carry with you in your purse or pocket.
- You need a stealth device that isn’t so recognizable.
- Medium cloud production is suitable to your style.
- You want a mod that can easily be tucked away and stored.
