Fast forward a few weeks, and I’ve got to say: it exceeded my expectations. Whether you're new to vaping or upgrading from a disposable, this guide is all about helping you get the absolute most out of your north connect pro—with tips, tricks, and a few personal favorites thrown in.
What Makes the North Connect Pro Special?
Before I get into the how-to, let me explain why I was drawn to the north connect pro in the first place.
This isn’t your typical pod device. It combines the simplicity of a disposable with the flexibility of a reusable system. As part of the northbar family, it has that familiar sleek design, but with some very cool upgrades.
Here’s what stood out to me:
- Magnetic pods that snap in easily
- Smooth draw activation (no buttons, no fuss)
- Rechargeable with USB-C for fast charging
- Wide selection of premium north flavors
It’s the kind of vape that doesn’t need a learning curve. But with a few pro tips, it gets even better.
Getting Started: First-Time Setup
When I first unboxed my north connect pro, setup took just a few minutes. But those few minutes made a huge difference in how well the device performed.
1. Charge It Fully First
Even though it comes with some charge, I always recommend giving it a full charge before your first use. It only took about 30-45 minutes using the USB-C charger.
2. Choose the Right Flavor Pod
This was the fun part. I went with a northbar favorite—Peach Mango Ice. The north flavors are known for their balance, and I wasn’t disappointed. If you’re into fruity or cool, icy hits, there’s something for every taste.
Once charged and flavored up, it was go time.
Using It Like a Pro
So now you’ve got your device and your favorite flavor. Here’s how I use it to get a smooth, consistent experience every time.
Steady, Slow Draws
I learned pretty quickly that the north connect pro works best when I take slow, steady draws. It helps maintain flavor, extends pod life, and gives a smoother throat hit.
Avoid Chain Vaping
This one’s important—especially if you’re like me and tempted to keep puffing non-stop. I take a few puffs, then give it a minute. This keeps the coil from overheating and makes the pod last longer.
Keep It Clean
Every couple of days, I use a cotton swab to gently clean the pod connection area. A little bit of dust or juice buildup can cause poor connection or flavor drop. This quick fix keeps everything tasting fresh.
How I Extend Pod Life
I’m the type of person who loves to get every last drop of value out of my vape, and over time, I’ve figured out how to stretch the life of my north flavors pods without sacrificing taste.
Don’t Overdraw
When you pull too hard or too often, you can burn out the coil inside the pod. I try to treat it more like sipping a drink than taking a deep breath.
Rotate Flavors
I like to switch between two or three different pods. It not only keeps things interesting, but it also helps each pod rest and cool down between uses.
Store Upright
This one’s simple but surprisingly effective. I always store my north connect pro standing upright when I’m not using it. It helps prevent leaks and keeps the coil saturated.
My Go-To North Flavors
Over the last few weeks, I’ve tried quite a few pods, and a few north flavors have become staples in my rotation.
- Peach Mango Ice– Sweet, juicy, and just the right amount of cool
- Strawberry Banana– Smooth and mellow with a creamy finish
- Mint Ice– Perfect for a refreshing reset
- Gummy Burst– Fun, nostalgic, and slightly tart
- Blue Razz Lemonade– My current obsession—tangy and sweet with a kick
The great thing is that all the flavors work consistently well with the north connect pro, and switching them out couldn’t be easier.
Taking It on the Go
One of the things I really appreciate is how portable the device is. It slips easily into a pocket or bag, and I don’t have to worry about it leaking or turning on accidentally (since it’s draw-activated).
Whether I’m heading out for a walk, meeting friends, or just relaxing at home, the north connect pro has become my go-to companion. And with the wide availability of northbar pods, I can find new flavors to try almost anywhere I go.
What I Wish I Knew Earlier
Like any vape, there’s a bit of a learning curve—even if it’s a small one. If I could go back and tell myself a few things when I first started using the north connect pro, here’s what I’d say:
- Don’t rush it.Let the flavor build with slow draws.
- Keep a backup pod on hand.Running out mid-day is the worst.
- Try flavors you wouldn’t normally go for.Some of my favorites were total surprises.
Once I got into the groove, it was clear this wasn’t just another device—it was a daily essential.
Final Thoughts
If you’re thinking about picking up a north connect pro, or already have one and want to take things to the next level, I hope this guide helps you enjoy it even more. Between the smart design, flavorful pods, and ease of use, it’s one of the best systems I’ve ever tried.
It takes the best parts of northbar disposables and builds them into a reusable system that saves time, money, and hassle. Add in the range of north flavors, and you've got a setup that’s easy to love and hard to put down.
So, whether you're new to vaping or just upgrading your device, the north connect pro is definitely worth diving into.
