Vaporesso Sky Solo Starter Kit: Simple Sub-Ohm Cloud Vaping
Quick verdict: the Vaporesso Sky Solo is a refillable sub-ohm DTL (direct-to-lung, a big open draw straight into the lungs) tank kit with a 1400mAh battery, USB-C charging and a 0.18Ω GT mesh coil. One button, top-fill, up to 85W. Best for vapers who want warm flavour and big clouds without a complicated mod. Not ideal if you want a tight, cigarette-like MTL draw or a discreet low-vapour vape, in which case a pod kit suits you better.
The Sky Solo strips sub-ohm vaping back to the basics. There is no screen and no wattage menu: the single button fires the tank, and the GT mesh coil sets the power. That makes it an easy first step into cloud vaping for anyone who finds full box mods fiddly.

Pick Your Draw: DTL (Sub-Ohm)
The Sky Solo is built for DTL vaping: you draw the vapour straight into your lungs, like taking a breath, rather than the tight MTL puff of a cigarette. The 0.18Ω mesh coil runs warm and makes plenty of vapour, so this is a kit for flavour and clouds. If you want a tight, discreet, cigarette-like draw, this is not the one to pick.
Key Features
Single-button simplicity with no wattage menu to learn. The coil sets the power.
0.18Ω GT mesh coil for warm vapour and strong flavour.
USB-C charging refills the 1400mAh battery quickly.
Top-fill tank so you refill from the top without removing anything.
Slim pen shape at 103 x 26mm, far easier to carry than a box mod.
Coils and E-Liquid Pairing
This is a sub-ohm kit, so the pairing is the opposite of a small pod. The 0.18Ω GT mesh coil wants a thick, high-VG 100ml shortfill e-liquid (usually 70% VG or more), not thin 50/50 or nic salts, which can spit and taste harsh in a low-resistance coil. Keep nicotine low, around 3mg to 6mg, because a sub-ohm coil delivers far more vapour per puff.
When flavour fades or you taste burning, fit a fresh Vaporesso GT Coils. Prime each new coil first: add a few drops of e-liquid onto the exposed cotton, fit it, fill the tank, then let it stand for five to ten minutes before vaping. Browse more Vaporesso coils if you want to try a different resistance.
Battery, Coil Life and Running Cost
Sub-ohm coils pull more power, so the 1400mAh battery suits a light-to-moderate DTL vaper for most of a day, with a USB-C top-up if you chain-vape. Heavy cloud-chasers will charge more than once.
A GT mesh coil typically lasts one to two weeks depending on how sweet your e-liquid is, since dark, sweet juices gunk coils faster. The running cost is a coil every week or two plus your shortfill, still far cheaper than disposables and with far more flavour choice.
Compatibility and Refills
The Sky Solo tank uses Vaporesso GT coils, the same family found across the GT range, so replacements are easy to find. Refilling is top-fill: slide or twist the top cap and add your e-liquid, no need to remove the tank. One point to get right when buying: this is the standard Sky Solo (1400mAh, slim body), not the larger Sky Solo Plus, which has a bigger battery and tank. Make sure you are buying coils and parts for the model you own.

Stepping Up from a Pod or Disposable?
The Sky Solo is a natural next step if you have used a pod or disposable and want bigger clouds and richer flavour. The trade-off is honest: DTL vapour is much larger and more noticeable, it gets through more e-liquid, and it is not the discreet, tight draw of a small pod. If you want warm, flavourful clouds with the least fuss, it fits. If you want cigarette-like MTL, look at a vape starter kit built for that instead. See the full Vaporesso vape kit range to compare.
Vaporesso Sky Solo FAQ
Which coils does the Vaporesso Sky Solo use?
It uses Vaporesso GT coils, shipping with a 0.18Ω GT mesh coil. The wider GT coil range fits too, so you can try different resistances. Always check you are buying GT coils for the Sky Solo, not parts for the larger Sky Solo Plus.
What e-liquid should I use in the Sky Solo?
Use a high-VG shortfill, usually 70% VG or more, at a low nicotine strength around 3mg to 6mg. The 0.18Ω sub-ohm coil makes a lot of vapour, so thin 50/50 juice or nic salts can taste harsh and may spit.
Is the Sky Solo MTL or DTL?
It is a direct-to-lung (DTL) sub-ohm kit, made for big, warm clouds drawn straight into the lungs. It is not designed for the tight, cigarette-like MTL draw, so pod-style vapers switching over should expect a very different, airier feel.
What is the difference between the Sky Solo and Sky Solo Plus?
The standard Sky Solo has a 1400mAh battery and a slimmer body. The Sky Solo Plus is larger, with a bigger battery and tank for longer sessions. They are separate products, so buy coils and spares for the exact model you own.
How do I fill the Sky Solo tank?
It is top-fill. Open the top cap, add your e-liquid down the side of the glass, then close it. With a new coil, prime it first by adding a few drops to the cotton and letting it sit for five to ten minutes before vaping.
How long does the battery last?
The 1400mAh battery lasts most of a day for a light-to-moderate DTL vaper. Because sub-ohm coils use more power, heavy users will need a USB-C top-up during the day. A full charge takes roughly an hour.
