► Aspire Flexus Q; First impressions:
The figure that immediately leaps to the eye is that of the 0-80% recharge in less than 10 minutes ... Flexus Q is in fact the first all-in-one device from Aspire to have 3A recharge, really not bad seen also the good battery capacity (700mAh) which are not few for the kind of device.
The first tactile and visual impressions are very good, the Flexus Q has a well finished classic design and a solid ergonomic metal body with all the comforts of a decidedly above average entry level kit. They are in fact present; 3 selectable power levels, a precise adjustable AFC, two spare replaceable Mesh Coils of the AF series rather flexible in their use and the double power supply mode.
► Aspire Flexus Q; Panels:
For this test I received the Black version from Aspire with real carbon fiber decoration on one side. The part decorated with the fiber has a very fine texture that is perceptible to the touch, the decoration bears the inscription "Flexus Q" in silver in the center.
The other panel is the "operational" one on which there is a large fire button made of metal and oval in shape. At the bottom we find the silver writing "Aspire".
Under the Fire button there is a multifunction LED that interfaces with the user providing the following information on the operating status ...
► Aspire Flexus Q; Led status and details:
• Connect / disconnect the pod: The Led light blinks white 1 time
• Power On / Off: Press the Fire button 5 times within 2s. The LED light flashes white 3 times
• Battery level 3.5V (0-30%) Red LED on
• Battery level = 3.5V-3.8V (30-60%) LED lit red and blue
• Battery level 3.8V-4.2V (60-100%) LED lit red and green
• Power level adjustment: Press the Fire button 3 times; Low level: Led light flashes red 2 times, Intermediate level: Led light flashes blue 2 times, High level: Led light flashes green 2 times
• Full Charging: The LED light blinks green 20 times
• Connecting the USB cable: The LED light flashes red 3 times
• Disconnecting the USB cable: The LED light flashes green 3 times
Flexus Q incorporates Aspire's ASP chipset which includes important security functions like all other Aspire devices ...
► Aspire Flexus Q; Protection functions:
• Cut-Off Protection (6s) The LED light flashes red and blue 10 times
• Short circuit protection The LED light flashes red and blue 3 times
• Low voltage protection The LED light blinks red 15 times
• Overload Protection The device will stop charging
• Overheat protection The LED indicator will stay yellow for 3 seconds and then the device will turn off
• Over voltage protection When charging is abnormal, the device will stop charging and vaping is not allowed.
► Aspire Flexus Q; Adjustable AFC:
The "aerodynamic" design of Flexus Q on the narrow sides is rather sober and devoid of appendages, (with an exception) for the AFC slider system that protrudes slightly from the body. The AFC button is solid and well crafted; by sliding it downwards, it opposes the right force of contrast to the movement and regulates the slot for the passage of air towards the coil in an effective way. Aspire proudly declares that it has designed an AFC system capable of fully satisfying the user in vaping modes ranging from Restricted-MTL to RDL.
► Aspire Flexus Q; Top and bottom view:
The pod compartment of Flexus Q is free of magnets and holds the cartridge with a rather tenacious interlocking system. At the bottom of the compartment / pod are the gold-plated contact pins and the automatic puff sensor.
► Aspire Flexus Q; Fast Charge:
Flexus Q thanks to the charging port of Type-C 5V / 3A declares a speed higher than 300% compared to the competition, in practice with very minimal and negligible downtime. The data declared by Aspire (0-80% in less than 10 minutes) is absolutely true. The 700mAh battery offers excellent power management.
► Aspire Flexus Q; Refillable Pod:
The 2ml capacity cartridge is made of dark-colored PCTG and includes an unspecified anti-leak mechanism that prevents not only the escape of liquid, but also the formation of condensation generated during the vape. The shape of the cartridge is ergonomic for the lips, furthermore the large transparent surface allows excellent visual control of the internal liquid level. The refill is of the lateral type with safety rubber and press-and-pull system for the AF coils.
A pleasant surprise during the test was my first encounter with the type of Mesh-Coil AF of replaceable. The two vertically developing Coils present in the package use first choice organic cotton and allow, through the adjustable AFC and the 3 selectable power levels, to set your favorite MTL puff with worthy flexibility.
• Mesh Coil AF 0,6Ω range 15-18W:
Good aromatic yield as one would expect from a higher level replaceable Mesh-coil, such as those used on tanks and comparable to the excellent AVP always from Aspire. Surely between the two coils this is my favorite given and considering my vocation towards a type of puff that is not too restricted. However, this coil allows a good MTL use even by choking the air and up to an "almost" RDL by increasing the air passage. With AFC open, steam production is quite abundant. The steam never overheats the tongue too much, even with the AFC closed and regardless of the power level chosen. The puff therefore, even with AFC wide open, is not excessively open but always fluid and silent, moreover it does not show tendencies of supercharging and spitting. Good responsiveness of the chipset, either using the fire button or the automatic mode. The consumption of liquid with a battery charge cycle is between 5 and 6ml.
• Mesh Coil AF 1.0Ω range 12-15W:
Certainly for restricted-MTL "extremists" this resistance will meet expectations, as its operation in combination with a fine adjustment of the AFC results in an almost strangled Puff. The other users, with medium AFC openings, can still count on a more fluid and balanced puff. By setting the average power level (Blue Led) with AFC open about 1/3, the puff is also in this case soft but with a "fresher" tone compared to the 0.6Ω and with a production of steam logically slightly lower than the previous coil sub-ohm, but still satisfying and in tune with the MTL vape mode. The fluid consumption with a battery charge life cycle was around 6ml, so many will be able to use Flexus Q for a full day before recharging the battery.
Thanks to Aspire for sending me the sample for review.
