Overview

The OXVA ONEO is a high-performance pod system that bridges the gap between simple pod vapes and more advanced sub-ohm setups. With 40W maximum output and mesh coil technology, it delivers exceptional flavor and vapor production in a compact, buttonless package.

This guide covers everything you need to know to get the most from your ONEO, from initial setup through advanced tips and troubleshooting.

What's in the Box

Your OXVA ONEO kit includes:

  • 1x OXVA ONEO Device (1600mAh battery)
  • 1x ONEO Pod Cartridge 0.4Ω (pre-installed)
  • 1x ONEO Pod Cartridge 0.8Ω
  • 1x USB Type-C Charging Cable
  • 1x User Manual and Warranty Card

Note: E-liquid is not included. Purchase separately.

Device Anatomy

Main Body

The aluminum alloy body houses the 1600mAh battery and draw-activated sensor. The ergonomic shape fits comfortably in hand, and the device stands upright on flat surfaces. The USB-C charging port is located on the bottom.

Pod Cartridge

The PCTG pod cartridge holds 3.5ml of e-liquid (2ml in TPD regions) with an integrated mesh coil. Pods attach magnetically to the top of the device. The side-fill port is sealed with a silicone plug.

Airflow Control

The small airflow slider on the back of the device adjusts draw resistance from tight MTL to open DTL. Push the slider toward the mouthpiece for more airflow, toward the base for less.

RGB Light Strip

The LED strip around the pod connection serves as a battery indicator during use and provides customizable lighting effects.

First-Time Setup

Step 1: Initial Charge

Before first use, fully charge your ONEO:

  1. Connect the included USB-C cable to the device's bottom port
  2. Connect the other end to a USB power source (5V recommended)
  3. The LED will pulse during charging
  4. Wait for a solid LED (approximately 60 minutes from empty)

Step 2: Fill Your Pod

  1. Remove the pod from the device by pulling straight up
  2. Locate the silicone fill port on the side of the pod
  3. Lift the silicone plug to expose the fill hole
  4. Insert your e-liquid bottle nozzle and fill slowly
  5. Stop below the max fill line—do not overfill
  6. Press the silicone plug firmly closed
  7. Wait 5-10 minutes for the coil to saturate (critical for new pods)

Important: Never fill through the center airflow tube. This will flood the coil and cause gurgling or leaking.

Step 3: Insert and Vape

  1. Align the pod with the device and press down until it clicks
  2. Verify the pod sits flush with no gaps
  3. Inhale from the mouthpiece to activate and vape

No button presses required—the device fires automatically when you inhale.

Coil Selection Guide

The ONEO works with three pod resistances, each suited to different vaping styles:

0.8Ω Mesh Coil

SpecificationValue
Wattage Range14-18W (auto)
Best ForMouth-to-lung (MTL)
E-LiquidNic salts, 50/50 VG/PG
Nicotine10-20mg
Battery LifeUp to 2 days

The tightest draw option. Excellent for former smokers and those preferring a cigarette-like experience. Provides strong throat hit with minimal vapor.

0.6Ω Mesh Coil

SpecificationValue
Wattage Range20-26W (auto)
Best ForRestricted DTL / Loose MTL
E-Liquid50/50 to 60/40 VG/PG
Nicotine6-12mg
Battery Life~1.5 days

The versatile middle option. Works for both vaping styles depending on airflow setting. Good balance of flavor, vapor, and battery life.

0.4Ω Mesh Coil

SpecificationValue
Wattage Range28-34W (auto)
Best ForDirect-to-lung (DTL)
E-Liquid70/30 VG/PG
Nicotine3-6mg freebase
Battery Life~1 day

Maximum vapor and flavor. Open the airflow fully for a satisfying DTL experience. Uses more e-liquid and battery but delivers sub-ohm tank performance.

Adjusting Airflow

The side-mounted airflow slider controls draw resistance:

  1. Locate the small slider on the back of the device
  2. Push toward the mouthpiece (up) for more airflow (looser draw)
  3. Push toward the base (down) for less airflow (tighter draw)

Recommendations:

  • MTL vaping: Close or nearly close the airflow
  • Restricted DTL: Set airflow to middle position
  • Open DTL: Fully open the airflow

Note: The slider is small and requires firm pressure to move. Once set, it stays in position during normal use.

LED Battery Indicator

The RGB light strip indicates battery level when you inhale:

LED ColorBattery Level
Green70-100%
Blue30-69%
RedBelow 30%

When the LED flashes red repeatedly during a draw, the battery is critically low and needs charging.

RGB Light Customization

Customize the LED effects by taking three quick puffs within 1.5 seconds. Each triple-puff cycles through modes:

  1. Colorful Marquee - Flowing color pattern
  2. Fade-In Effect - Gradual color transitions
  3. Breathing Light - Pulsing single color
  4. Lights Off - LED disabled except for battery indicator

The selected mode persists until changed.

Charging

Standard Charging

  1. Connect USB-C cable to the bottom port
  2. Connect to a 5V USB power source
  3. LED pulses during charging
  4. LED turns solid when fully charged
  5. Disconnect cable

Charging time: Approximately 60 minutes from empty thanks to 5V/2A fast charging.

Charging Tips

  • Use a quality USB-C cable (the included cable works well)
  • Phone chargers (5V/1-2A) work perfectly
  • Avoid high-voltage fast chargers designed for phones (may damage battery)
  • Don't leave charging unattended overnight
  • The device cannot be used while charging

Quick Top-Up

A 10-minute charge adds significant battery life. If leaving home with low battery, even a brief charge helps substantially.

Pod Replacement

Replace pods when you notice:

  • Muted or reduced flavor
  • Burnt or off taste
  • Decreased vapor production
  • Visible residue buildup in the pod
  • More than 2 weeks of regular use

How to Replace

  1. Remove the old pod by pulling straight up
  2. Dispose of the old pod properly (contains battery and electronic components)
  3. Fill a new pod following the instructions above
  4. Wait for saturation before vaping
  5. Insert the new pod and enjoy

Extending Pod Life

  • Avoid very sweet e-liquids (sweetener gunks coils faster)
  • Don't chain vape (allow wick to re-saturate between puffs)
  • Keep e-liquid level above minimum
  • Store device upright when possible

Maintenance

Daily Care

  • Wipe the mouthpiece to remove condensation
  • Check that the pod is seated properly
  • Ensure airflow slots are clear of debris

Weekly Care

  • Remove the pod and clean the magnetic contacts with a dry cotton swab
  • Wipe the exterior with a dry cloth
  • Check the charging port for lint or debris
  • Inspect the pod for cracks or damage

What to Avoid

  • Never submerge in water or clean with liquids
  • Don't use harsh chemicals or solvents
  • Avoid extreme temperatures (below freezing or above 113°F/45°C)
  • Don't leave in direct sunlight for extended periods
  • Never attempt to open or modify the device

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I turn the OXVA ONEO on or off?

The ONEO has no power button—it's always ready to use. Simply inhale to activate. When not in use, the device enters a low-power sleep state automatically. There's no way to fully power off the device manually.

What e-liquid should I use with the ONEO?

For the 0.8Ω coil, use nicotine salts or 50/50 VG/PG freebase at 12-20mg. For the 0.6Ω coil, use 50/50 to 60/40 VG/PG at 6-12mg. For the 0.4Ω coil, use 70/30 VG/PG freebase at 3-6mg. Avoid very thick (80%+ VG) liquids which may not wick properly.

Can I adjust the wattage manually?

No, the ONEO automatically detects coil resistance and sets appropriate wattage. The 0.8Ω coil receives 14-18W, the 0.6Ω receives 20-26W, and the 0.4Ω receives 28-34W. There's no manual override.

How do I know when to replace the pod?

Replace the pod when flavor becomes muted or tastes burnt, vapor production decreases noticeably, or you've used it for 2+ weeks with regular use. Sweeter e-liquids shorten pod life.

Is the ONEO compatible with other OXVA pods?

No, the ONEO uses its own dedicated pod cartridges with integrated coils. It's not compatible with XLIM pods or other OXVA product lines.

Can I vape while charging?

No, the ONEO does not support pass-through vaping. You must wait for charging to complete before using the device.

Why does condensation form in the mouthpiece?

This is normal, especially with the lower-resistance coils that produce more vapor. The mouthpiece shape tends to collect condensation. Simply wipe clean periodically with a tissue.
