The SCAR-18 vape kit from SMOK may not redefine high-wattage vaping, but it’s arguably the best vape kit SMOK has produced in years, serving as a new flagship for the venerable vape company. Let’s see why, starting with the impressive specs. The SMOK SCAR 18 Outputs up to 230W. Accommodating two high-amp 18650 batteries in a zinc-alloy [...]
Good god is the SMOK Scar Mini adorable. Maybe not Baby Yoda-levels of “awwww”, but it’s at least as adorable as a compact vape mod can look these days. With its curvy, soft-coated alloy exterior, ridiculously small dimensions and simplified display, this is about as simple as adjustable vaping can be. But is it enough for [...]
When is an “all-in-one” device not enough? This is often debated by vape reviewers, who try to pinpoint which audience would be best served by a specific product. The all-new Sigelei Humvee kit stirred up more of these discussions. On one hand, it’s about as powerful as any of the other 80-watt devices we’ve seen, but [...]
Death. Taxes. Voopoo Drag mods. These are the most consistent things in life right now. While Voopoo might not be changing the game with their latest edition of the Drag Mini Refresh Edition series, they’ve updated plenty of things that today’s buyers want to see. So, while this isn’t quite a perfect review, there’s a lot [...]
Oh, it was sooooooo close. Lost Vape was poised for an “undefeated” 2020, with an array of pod mods and high-end kits to die for. But sadly, there was a slight misstep as we approach another flip of the calendar. The all-new Lost Vape Back to Basics (BTB) 100-watt starter kit isn’t a bad setup. In [...]
I feel like I’ve typed “SMOK” more in the last few weeks than I have in the last 18 months. And after seeing great kits like the SMOK SCAR-18 setup, I was thrilled to have ANOTHER good-looking kit come across my desk. I don’t know, call it nostalgia… but it kinda feels like the “old [...]
Anyone who reads Spinfuel VAPE reviews knows that we can be a little cynical before trying new devices. [And the Pacific Ocean is “a little damp’ - ED.] So, when the single-battery Aspire DECO kit arrived, we expected to be underwhelmed by a single-cell mod and yet another “all-new” tank setup. Well, once again, a side [...]
Please allow me to open with a terrible joke. Here goes nothin’... SCAR-18 > COVID-19 Why the bad pun? Because even in a year that most vape companies understandably slowed production, SMOK has soldiered through, producing some of its best devices since the mid-point of the decade. The all-new SCAR-18 kit may not redefine high-wattage vaping, but it’s [...]
Everything old is new again. Especially in vaping, when it’s not uncommon to see “updated” versions of mod kits appear just months after an initial release. But I didn’t expect to see a new version of the Vaporesso Luxe hit the market, since the awesome Vaporesso GEN seemed to become their flagship a year ago. Well, [...]
I have a bold proposition for Geek Vape: Change your name! No, I’m not expecting them to listen. But after releasing a veritable ton of amazing, gorgeous, advanced vape kits, I feel like the name might mislead newcomers. Because the Geek Vape Aegis Max 100W mod kit is another stunning, high-performing entry in a series that [...]
We’re calling the all-new Voopoo Argus GT kit “A Tale of Two Mod Kits.” On one hand, you have a slender, potent 160-watt device that just screams to be paired with any of your favorite sub-ohm tanks. On the other is the included pod tank, which………. well, let’s just cover it down below. The Voopoo ARGUS [...]
SMOK Mag P3 Mini Kit - No matter how much we argue, people seem to love SMOK’s “gun trigger” aesthetic for the Mag series, so we’re going to put our personal feelings aside and review the all-new SMOK Mag P3 Mini kit with an open mind. Because, you know what? Not only is the streamlined [...]
Much like the engine that inspired previous Augvape mods, the VX217 is meant to be lean, streamlined, and free of nonsense. In that sense, Augvape’s latest delivers. It’s not a forward-thinking vape device, and it has one major flaw in the box. So, if this one caught your eye, definitely keep reading to see if [...]
“Oh captain, my captain.” I’ve made a deliberate habit of starting my iJOY Captain series reviews with this overused line for a reason. Because the Captain continues to overuse ideas. The very first Captain mod kit was a reasonable facsimile of the SMOK Alien kit. The endless line of follow-ups introduced more batteries, bigger batteries, [...]
It’s been a minute since we reviewed a true beginner’s vape device -- read: “not a pod mod.” Simple, but not dumb. Powerful, but not unwieldy. Compact, without being too limited. The Vaporesso GTX One kit is designed as an entry-level mouth-to-lung (MTL) setup, but to label it this way seems almost unfair. This is [...]
