SXK Delro d60e - dna60 eScribe Update

Creating a write up in case someone needs this info one day.

*These instructions are only for the SXK Delro d60e with 2200mAh LiPo battery*

The default dna60 is not programmed correctly by SXK but can be easily fixed in eScribe (EVOLV SOFTWARE).

Always recommend using the international version of the software instead of the US version.
Only difference is a slightly larger download size (couple megabytes) and you get the full featured software.

You will want to right click your desktop icon and run eScribe as admin on windows so your device is detected when plugged in.

If it's your first time connecting your device to eScribe you might get a pop up or message up top alerting you to the latest available update
go ahead and install the update.

Now in the menu bar go to File->'Save As' and save your default settings as SXK_DNA60_Delro_Default or whatever is easy for you to remember.

You've now covered the basics and have a copy of your default settings that you can always revert to.
Step 1. Go to your menu bar up top and select "Options->User Interface->Manufacturer" this will unlock extra settings for you to adjust in eScribe.

Step 2. Go to the tab "mod" then the new tab "battery" below it. You will find that the SXK delro is set for "Type: Lithium-Ion" and "Cell Soft Cutoff: 2.75V"
you want to change these settings to "Type: Lithium-Polymer and "Cell Soft Cutoff: 3.1V" leave all other settings the same.

Step 3. Press the "UPLOAD SETTINGS TO DEVICE" button and it will send the changes to your device.

Step 4. In the menu bar go to File->'Save As' and save your updated default settings as SXK_DNA60_Delro_Default_With_Battery_Update or whatever is easy for you to remember.

Voopoo Argus G - review by Javichu

Hello there fellow masters of the old art secrets of vaping,drop your wands,take off your magical robes and let us get started with today's review.
(sorry for the weird intro,semi gf made me watch Harry Potter yesterday so i am still suffering from PTSD :lol:

Going to review the Argus G which was sent to me by Voopoo for the purposes of this review,as per usual let us get a quick compendium going in the form of pictures that will give you a general idea of what this device is about.

Unboxing and first impressions:

Proper packaging,open the box and slide out a tray which shows the device in question.
I got the ''racing green'' color and oh boy it does look shiny,pretty good paint job with some minimal branding.
It slick looking and the surface of the pod is smooth to the touch,made out of alloy zinc it does feel well designed.
Fire button located on the front does feel a bit ''small'' but that could just be me and my Andre the Giant sized hands he he.

All you need to start vaping is inside the box,small little baggie with the following contents:

Argus Pod Cartridge 07. ohm
Argus Pod Cartridge 1.2 ohm
Argus Pod Platform Card (small card with the information of the different coils,wattages that you can use with this device)
Type-C cable
User Manual
Lanyard

Good to see that once again Voopoo didn't skimp and included a second cartridge/coil with this box,other companies could learn from this.

This device comes in 7 beautiful colors to choose from:
-gloss black
-space grey
-racing green
-glow pink
-sand drift gold
-aurora blue
-satin blue



Vaping time:

Ok so the device got charged to 100% (full charge takes about an hour),both coils the 1.2 and 0.7 ohm soaking up my e-liquid for 10 minutes so i am ready to get this party started...oh wait.
Forgot to mention,Voopoo also sent me some empty cartridges and 2 coils (0-5ohms) to test this device out when it goes full RDL,yeah right this isn't just a pure MTL device.
Thanks to the 0.5 ohm coils you can get a proper RDL experience,in my book more options is always better.


Before testing the quality of the vape i have to go over the menu system of this device.
Pretty simple to operate since it relies on just the fire button for all actions you may require to do in the menu.

-To power up press fire button 5 times in a row.
-To turn off the pod device press the fire button 5 times,menu will pop up then press the fire button ONCE to cycle thru the options until you get to ''power off'',keep fire button pressed and voila!! device is turned off.
-Wattage adjustment is done by pressing the fire button 3 times,once you get the number of the wattage flashing just keep pressing the fire button until you reach the desired number.
-Lock and puff counter can also be accessed in the menu,press fire button 5 times then navigate to either of them.
Even with the device locked you can still use the autodraw feature,that itself isn't a problem since its probably going to be in your purse or pocket there is not way the pod is going to autodraw itself.


For this review i decided to stick to my usual 70/30 (6mg nic) Shiva e-liquid,added some vanilla to the mix for that a little sweetness i mean come on we all need some sweetness am i right?

So now looking at my desk i got 3 different coils to choose from,going to start with the MTL and work my way up to RDL which means first I'll try the 1.2 ohm coil,then the 0.7 coil (both included in the kit) and to finish i will test the 0.5 ohm coil for that true RDL experience.


The 1.2 ohm?
Good flavor,true MTL with airflow closed all the way...well not really.
Even if you close it all the way you still have a tiny hole on the side so some air does get thru it.

To be honest this is the coil i enjoyed the least,that is not the fault of the coil itself,that is all on me...just not that into that restricted of a MTL user so i quickly moved on to the 0.7 ohm which is also included in the kit.

Now we talking!!
Pumped up the wattage to 16w,airflow fully open and oh yeah baby that hits the spot.
Can't really put my finger on it but to me it felt like a really airy loose MTL close like really close borderline i dare say to RDL.

The 0.7 i used for a full day and almost exclusively,maybe a couple of hits of my daily sub-ohm tank but yeah i stuck with this one.
Ok so i was pretty pumped to give the 0.5ohm a try but...i expected more,now now this is just what my expectations were compared to the 0.7/1.2 coils.
Thought that at 25 watts i would get like more bang bang!! type of hit,this is not a critique on the coil itself but truth be told i kinda enjoyed the 0.7 ohm more.
The 0.7 ohm i used all the time with airflow fully open and long slow drags....man oh man this this hits and hits hard,even with a 70/30 proportion and only 6mg nic i was going into Paradise City territory with this coil (Guns'n'Roses reference he he)



Pros:

-Love the aesthetics,paint job is well done and not just like the one color.
Color scheme gets darker on the bottom and gradually gets lighter on its way to the top
-Well designed and well built,small size but you get no feeling of ''cheapness or fragile'' when holding it.
-Coil performance very good,options for all...want MTL? you got it,want RDL? you also got that
-Auto draw delivers the same power and performance as the fire button

Cons:

-Not really that much of a con and this is just a personal issue.
The surface just felt a tad to ''slick'' for my taste,sometimes i got the sensation the pod was leaking and/or it felt kinda wet.
But again not really a con,just personal preference since i prefer some ruggedness in my vaping devices.

Would i recommend this device:

Well if you're in the market for a small pod like device and you're a newcomer to the vaping world then yes this would be the device for you,same if you're a veteran of the vaping arts.
One thing i like about the Argus G is that if you are new to vaping this device will let you experience both modes of vaping,MTL then RDL.
Some folks who quit cigarettes and start with vaping might prefer to do so in RDL mode,this device gives you that option.

Well that's it for today folks.

Thanks to my friends from Voopoo for sending me this device for review purposes,for more info you can check it out here:


If you made it all the way down here thanks for the support and i hope you enjoyed my review.

GTi watts for 0.2 is 50-60 Watts. Target 200 setting it at 30 Watts

My Vaporesso Target 200 is setting my wattage at 30 W using a 0.4 ohm coil. Wattage recommendation on GTi package is between 50 and 60 W. Do I go with a 30W or raise it to 50W minimum by package recommendations?

I know I can turn off feature, but I prefer to keep it enabled.

Thanks in advance.

VOOPOO ARGUS G POD KIT review by hittman

As promised, here I am back with the second of two reviews for Voopoo. This time I will be taking a look at the new Argus G Pod kit that was sent to me in order to provide you with a fair and honest review. The G is a bit of an upgrade from the SE model that I covered on my last review. This one has a 1000mah internal battery where the SE had 800mah. The G also has a higher maximum wattage of 25 watts and has adjustable output as well as a display screen and a fire/function button. Sounds pretty good right? It also has a sliding airflow control on the side and a rubber base to help keep it from sliding around on tables and desks. All of this while also looking fantastic thanks to a nano-scale polishing process. Stay tuned and we’ll see if the hype pays off in the end.

INITIAL THOUGHTS:


The packaging for the Argus G is pretty basic with a box that opens from one end and a plastic tray that slides out with a bag of accessories underneath. I’ve seen this from Voopoo before where the nicer of two review kits comes in packaging that isn’t quite as nice as the less expensive unit. The SE had a nice slide out box where the G just has an open end box with a plastic tray. I would think it would be the opposite where the more expensive unit would have nicer packaging. Anyway, it’s just something that I’ve noticed over time.

The front of the box has the Voopoo and Argus G names with a really nice color picture of the actual color version contained inside the box. I like when it is done this way instead of using a stock image for all color versions. Also the color version is listed on the front as well as a sticker stating that it is in fact compatible with the Argus Pod cartridge. The back side of the box has the normal contents list, company information, and in this case a large sticker with the word sample on it. This is just for review samples and will not be on production models.

1678153863848.png


1678153884327.png


Once the top of the box is opened then the plastic tray can be slid out. Underneath the tray is a sealed plastic bag with the accessories contained inside. I personally don’t care for this type of set up since most times the plastic bag will fall to the table or ground since you’re not expecting something to be tucked underneath the tray. The G comes with the same .7 and 1.2 ohm pod cartridges as the SE that I just reviewed did. Also in the plastic bag is the USB-C charging cable, user manual and a lanyard as well as the second included pod. I’m glad that Voopoo included two pods with this one and the SE. I feel like that should always be the case with any pod device.

1678153924977.png


Besides the kit with the two pods, Voopoo was nice enough to include a two pack of the Argus pod empty cartridges that use the ITO coils and included two .5 ohm coils for testing. These pods are also 2ml in capacity just like the ones included in the kit.

1678153968980.png


The pods included are compatible with the Argus P1, Argus G, Argus Z, Argus Pod, and the Argus Pod SE. It’s nice that they are compatible across so many devices. So both the G and SE that I received for review can use the same pods. However, the .5 ohm coils I received with the empty pod cartridge are only recommended for the SE since it offers a higher output level at 25 watts. When the pod is installed in the G the Gene chip recognizes the resistance and defaults to 23 watts. The SE is limited to 18 watts so isn’t a good match for it. The .7 ohm pre-built pod is sensed and defaults to 16 watts while the 1.2 ohm pod defaults to 10 watts. This is a good feature especially for beginners so they don’t over power the coils in the pods and burn the cotton inside.

Since the G comes with the .7 ohm pod pre-installed, it does have a clear safety seal over the contacts in order to keep it from being fired before the pod is filled. They are sold separately but I was given a two pack of the empty pods and two .5 ohm ITO coils. This was by far my favorite set up of the three pods. Like I said, it defaulted to 23 watts but it easily handled the maximum output of 25 watts. One thing that is different about the empty pod cartridges is that the fill port is on the skinny side of the pod instead of on the wider flat side of the pod like the .7 and 1.2 ohm pre-built pods.

1678154086788.png


1678154112476.png


1678154139138.png


The back side of the Argus G has “Designed by Voopoo” etched on the body. I can’t tell you how much I like the silver/black gradient effect on the version I received. It has a high polished look but is not a fingerprint magnet. Very well done. One side of the G contains the USB-C charging port used to charge the 1000mah internal battery at a rate of 5V/1A which should charge the battery completely in about an hour. The opposite side houses the sliding airflow control that has a series of round holes that are said to allow the user to go from a tight MTL to an RDL style of vaping. I personally found even with it open all the way with the .5 ohm ITO coil in the empty pod cartridge that it was still a bit tighter than what I like for an RDL and found myself still using it as a loose MTL.

4VNpNsz.jpg


The main side I want to focus on is the side with the OLED display screen and the fire button. The Argus G can be button fired or used in auto draw. The fire button also functions as the adjustment/menu button depending on the number of button presses. The display screen shows the following information.

  • Set Wattage
  • Battery level indicator
  • Coil Resistance
  • Lock/Unlock symbol
The button also allows you to operate the functions of the Argus G. Five presses of the fire button will turn on the G but will not turn it off. Once the G is on then in order to shut it off then you need to press the button 5X to enter the menu where you can shut the device off, reset the puff counter, or lock the fire button. To adjust the output you press the fire button 3X then the wattage number will flash then you can either single press or hold the button down to fast scroll the wattage. It will stop and give a warning when you reach the maximum wattage recommended for the installed coil or pod. This is a safety feature to help the user keep from overpowering the coil and burning the cotton. For example, the .7 ohm pod defaults to 16 watts when installed but if you try to go over 18 watts the mod will not allow it. If you press the fire button again then it will round robin and start back at 5 watts. Once the preferred wattage is set then you can either long press the button or just wait for it to stop flashing. I understand why this safety feature was included but for an experienced user I feel like it is a little bit of an over reach and would have liked to have seen a way to override it.

29hUrwP.jpg


FINAL THOUGHTS:

So, did the Argus G live up to the hype? I think it did. It performed very well in my opinion with not only the two included pre-built pods but also with the empty pod cartridges and the spare .5 ohm ITO coils that were sent with the review sample. On any pod device, airflow control is always a great feature to have. This one has the airflow control on the side which in my opinion helped to prevent accidentally covering it with my hand when holding it. Second up is user adjustable output which is another great feature to have but is not all that common on these smaller pod devices. I have seen it on a few other pod devices but having a display screen and adjustable output is not all that common in a market flooded with one pod kit after the next.

I didn’t have any trouble using a 70vg/30pg mix in the .7 ohm pod that was included in this kit like I did with the same pod in the SE kit so will blame the trouble on a pre-installed coil that probably just had the cotton packed a little too tight. The flavor production on this one using a green tea and guava DIY mix was very good in my opinion. The amount of vapor produced was very respectable also. The wicking seemed to do very well with not recognizable dry hits. The pod did not leak and had no noticeable condensation. I’m not surprised since I’ve used the Argus pod cartridges across different devices. The G defaulted to 16 watts on this pod and I found that setting very good for my style of vaping.

I also used a 70vg/30pg NET tobacco mix with the 1.2 ohm pod and the flavor was ok but not great. I had the same results with the SE and this same pod. It did help some that I was able to adjust the wattage a little higher but never really got it where I wanted it due to the G restricting how high I could turn the wattage up. I feel like this pod could have handled a bit more wattage. The mod defaulted to 10 watts on this one but I turned it up to 13.

Lastly, I primed one of the .5 ohm ITO coils and installed it in one of the empty pod cartridges that I was sent and can be purchased separately. This was by far my favorite of the three that I tried. I used an orange tart DIY mix that was also 70/30. There was no issue with wicking and the flavor production was very good. The G defaulted to 23 watts but would allow adjustment up to the maximum output of 25 watts. I found the 23 watt setting very comfortable to use.

So, in closing I would like to say that I would probably recommend the Argus G to those looking for a versatile small pod device with a pretty good size battery for a device like this for out and about. Voopoo claims three days use on one charge of the 1000mah battery. I personally think that is a bit much but will in the end depend on each user’s frequency of vaping. I sometimes don’t understand why companies attempt to tell us how many days a device will last on a charge since it’s going to be different for different users depending on how much they vape.

I’d like to thank Voopoo and Nical for sending the Voopoo Argus G Pod kit for this review as well as the extra pods and coils. Thanks as always to the readers. I appreciate you taking the time to read my reviews. Below is a link to the Voopoo website for your viewing pleasure.

ARGUS G-VOOPOO VAPE Spark Your Life

VOOPOO ARGUS SE POD KIT review by hittman

Hello again friends. I’m back with you today to cover yet another pod device called the Argus Pod SE that was sent to me by Voopoo in order to attempt to provide you with a fair and honest review. Yes, I know there have been a lot of pods lately. I know this all too well but I’m going to go ahead and do my best to cover this one for you. It reminds me very much of the Argus Z pod in size but looks a little different and has had an airflow adjustment added. Then I got to thinking that the shape resembles the Argus Pod that had the leather sides on it. Voopoo used a new nanoscale lithography process for the patch design. The SE has an 800mah battery capacity with a maximum output of 18 watts. The charging circuit for this one is rated at 5V/1A so it should charge completely in less than an hour. The pods included are compatible with the Argus P1, Argus G, Argus Z, Argus Pod, and the Argus Pod SE. It’s nice that they are compatible across so many devices.

INITIAL THOUGHTS:


The packaging for the Argus Pod SE is pretty standard coming from Voopoo. I do like that the picture on the front of the box is a picture of the actual color version contained inside. I received the Shiny Blue version for this review. The picture on the front is pretty nice and of course there are the Voopoo and Argus Pod SE names printed top and bottom. The back side is nothing new. It has the usual contents list, warning, company information, and authenticity code.

1678152011420.png


1678152038190.png


The tray containing the SE slides out from one end to expose the SE on the left with two pods on the right side of the plastic tray. Included in the kit there are two pre-built pods that are .7 and 1.2 ohm resistance rated. You can see on the front of the rubber stopper on each pod that the ratings are clearly stated for user convenience. Since there is not a pod pre-installed in the SE, there is not a safety seal on either one of the pods. Also included in the kit is of course a USB-C charging cable and a user manual. I don’t think most people will really need to look at the manual very much since this is a simplistic auto draw only device with no screen or buttons. It is however always a good idea to look at the safety information.

1678152080135.png


1678152101427.png


What I would call the front of the SE has a grooved square shape near the top with the sliding airflow control contained inside. It doesn’t have a wide area of operation but it does work ok and is stiff enough that it shouldn’t move when taking it in and out of a pocket. The Argus name is printed on this side while the Voopoo name is printed on the opposite side as well as the Gene AI name near the top on that side. “Designed by Voopoo” is etched on one of the skinny sides. A bit too much branding for my tastes. The opposite thin side of the mod is where the three LED battery indicator lights are located. The three levels are as follows.

  • Three lights = 66-100%
  • Two lights = 33-66%
  • One light = <33%
There are also LED indicators that give you some other information besides just the battery level. When charging the corresponding light will flash. Once fully charged then the three indicator lights will be lit solid. Other indications are as follows.

  • Normal mode: Corresponding LED will gradually get brighter
  • Low battery: LED indicator will flash red 10 times
  • Short circuit: LED indicator will flash red 2 times
  • Time out(8 seconds): LED indicator will flash red 8 times
  • Temp High: LED indicator will flash red 15 times

1678152229422.png


The USB-C charging port is located on the bottom on this one so there won’t be any standing this one up while charging. Honestly I pretty much never try to stand up a pod device when charging it no matter where the charging port is. They are usually so lightweight that they the cord will knock it over anyway.

Eh6xKFu.jpg




The pod opening on the SE is pretty standard and similar to what we are used to seeing on this type of device with two spring loaded contacts, two magnets to secure the pod, and the airflow sensor which is raised to prevent liquid flowing into it.

1678152329863.png


The pods included in the kit are the .7 and 1.2 ohm Argus Pod cartridges that are compatible with a handful of other Voopoo pod devices as I mentioned earlier. I don’t see a reason to repeat them again. The resistance of the pods is clearly stamped into the rubber fill plug and there is an arrow directing the user which side to lift in order to fill the pod. They aren’t the easiest or the hardest to lift for filling. I’ve had better and worse. The pods hold 2ml of liquid which is pretty standard for most pod devices. I like that the pods are clear enough to let the user pretty easily see the liquid level in the pods. I have noticed that if I get the liquid level too low then I get what I would almost call a gurgling sensation which is easily corrected by filling the pod. The included pods are pre-built and the coils are not replaceable. However, there is a pod available for purchase separately that has replaceable coils and will work in place of the pre-built pods. Voopoo was nice enough to include one with my review samples but the coils that were sent are .5 ohm and not suited for the SE since its maximum output is 18 watts. I however did receive a second pod device that I will be reviewing next and will show that pod and the coils. The base of the pod has four air inlet openings and contains magnets even though they aren’t visible. I confirmed this by sticking the pod to the metal handle of my desk.

FINAL THOUGHTS:


This is the part of the review where I sometimes struggle as to what to talk about when it comes to pod devices. I guess I should start out by saying that the SE worked very well for the most part during my time testing it. The SE is another Argus pod device in a long line of Argus pods from Voopoo. It is small in size and can easily be carried in a pocket or purse. It offers a loose to tight MTL style of vaping. I had zero issues with the auto draw on this one. It worked flawlessly. I had no leaking and almost no condensation while testing it. I’m not really surprised since I’ve tested the Argus pods before in other devices. As a matter of fact I still use the Argus Z on occasion. It’s nice that besides the included .7 and 1.2 ohm cartridges, you can also use the empty Argus Pod and choose from .5, .7, 1.0, and 1.2 ohm ITO coils. However, the .5 isn’t recommended for the SE due to its wattage limitation.

I normally run 70VG/30PG in all of my devices whether it be pod or tank. I started out with the .7 ohm pod and filled it with an orange tart mix that I use frequently. I let the pod sit for probably 20-30 minutes while the battery was charging and came back to give it a try. I found the flavor to be muted almost to the point of getting a dry hit. I puffed lightly on it until I used up some of the liquid and topped it off with a 50/50 nic salt I had left over from another review. After this it wicked fine and the flavor was pretty good. Not great but heck it’s a pod not an rda. The conclusion I draw from this is that either the coil in that pod was packed too tight or something because I’ve used 70/30 in other Argus pod cartridges. I closed the airflow about 2/3 of the way to get a slightly tight MTL and quite enjoyed it once the coil started wicking correctly.

Next up was the 1.2 ohm pod. I decided to use a NET tobacco mix that I like and have used a fair amount. For the most part I usually don’t like the higher resistance pods. I always end up craving a stronger vape. The flavor on the NET was a little muted on this one compared to the pod mod I used it on in a previous review. It’s not terrible but just am not getting the flavor notes that I am used to from this liquid. I think for a device with no output adjustment that a 1.0 ohm pod would have been a better fit for me personally.

As I mentioned earlier, the SE reminded me of the Argus Z and the Argus Pod so below is a picture of the SE beside the Z. I gave away the Argus Pod so wasn’t able to include it in the picture. The second picture below is the SE and the other sample I was sent which is the Argus G and will cover in my next review. The pods are interchangeable between all of these devices but the .5 ohm ITO coil is not recommended for the SE so you will have to wait for my next review to hear if I liked this one with the replaceable coils.

I’d like to thank Voopoo and Nical for sending the review sample of the Argus SE Pod kit for this review and stay tuned for my next review on the Argus G. A big thanks to the readers. Thank you for sticking it out with me on all of these pod reviews. Below is a link to the Voopoo website where you can see these new products as well as the mods and tanks available from Voopoo.

CyborgQuest Stopped working suddenly? (Read edit #2 ) SOLVED Ty!

Just bought the Cyborg quest about 2 months ago tops.
Been using it daily zero issues. Also use it with different attachments and it's worked great.
Just a few minutes ago I was puffing it and it was working fine then I put it down and came back to it 10 minutes after and it just stopped working.

I press the fire button and the wattage fluctuate and get almost no vapor.

I think it might have had a short circuit all of the sudden.

Below is a 2 min clip I made showing the issue.

Thank you!

EDIT Video uploading now (Decided not to post since issue is resolved below)

EDIT #2 SOLVED:
Holy CRAP I swear I did everything for 30 minutes and nothing worked. I reset 4 times I messed with the atomizer, I cleaned it with alcohol, I powered on and off, I tried different settings. I took the battery out. Nothing worked.
Guess what, now the dang thing is working again. I literally just smashed it on my palm a few times took a couple of hits and its working again haha.

Ty everyone.

► VooPoo Argus Pod G; First Impressions:
Compared to ARGUS SE here you can find the review: Review
Argus G grows in physical size and battery (800mah against 1,000mah), implements the use of a display and the Fire button in combination with automatic extraction. Argus G also has a slightly wider MTL/RDL airflow regulation system. Below you can see a comparison image between these two new VooPoo Pods.

Voo-Poo-Argus-G-8.jpg


The device that VooPoo has made available to me for my test is "Racing Green" in color with darker shades of green towards the bottom, the paint looks very nice and durable and this is most likely due to the careful CMF polishing process on the nanoscale. On the back there is the writing "Designed By VooPoo and on the bottom of the device there is a rubber support base to cushion the noise and increase the grip when you want to place the Mod standing up. Despite the narrow and elongated shape it is possible (with a little balancing act) keep the mod vertical even during the reloading phase.

Voo-Poo-Argus-G-9.jpg


On the main panel you can see two inscriptions "Gene AI" and "Argus". ARGUS G supports dual ignition, push button ignition and self-extraction. The fire button is metallic in texture and circular in shape. The button is located inside a screen which in turn incorporates a small monochrome OLED display. The information on the display is characterized by enlarged and clearly visible fonts.

* The "Gene AI" chipset allows you to view all the necessary info on the display such as;
• Power selected
• Ohm value of the coil
• Battery charge level
• Five-digit Puffs counter
• Duration of the last Puff
• Lock/unlock symbol

* In case of security notifications the screen will display text messages as follows:
• Low Power
• Short circuit
• Maximum power for the coil in use
• High temperature
• Timeout: (Even with automatic extraction), over 5 seconds of uninterrupted vape the protection will be activated.

For those who want to wear Argus G, there is good news, in fact inside the package there is a comfortable collar.

Voo-Poo-Argus-G-10.jpg


The long and thin form factor of Argus G can be seen from the side, in this case you can see the side that houses the TYPE-C charging port, with the supplied 5V / 1A cable it is possible to fully recharge the device in 60 minutes . According to VooPoo the built-in 1000mAh battery of Argus G supports stable vaping even with the maximum output of 25W and a full charge would last about 3 days at most. Of course, the duration of the battery charge depends on the frequency of use and the power selected.

Voo-Poo-Argus-G-11.jpg


► VooPoo Argus Pod G; AFC System:
VooPoo has introduced a fully adjustable 3-holes system to make the most of the incoming airflow; both for MTL extractions with the use of disposable cartridges and for RDL in combination with the use of Ito Sub-ohm Coils with special empty cartridges. The slider AFC system is controlled by a small but sturdy metal pin.

Voo-Poo-Argus-G-12.jpg


► VooPoo Argus Pod G; Operation Guide:
The intelligent interaction between the "Gene AI" chipset and the multifunction button allows the following operations:
• Power on: Press the button 5 times in succession.
• Shutdown: Press the button 5 times in succession to enter the function menu and keep pressing the button to select the shutdown option.
• Wattage adjustment: Press the button 3 times in succession to enter the function menu, select the wattage adjustment option, keep pressing the button to select a wattage between 5 and 25W. 【Warning: the maximum wattage on the screen varies with the resistance value of the installed coil】
• Lock/Unlock: Press the button 5 times in succession to enter the function menu, keep pressing the button to select lock or unlock option. (Auto lock after 15 minutes of inactivity)
• Puff reset: Press the button 5 times in succession to enter the function menu, and keep pressing the button to reset the counter.

Voo-Poo-Argus-G-13.jpg


The Compartment/Pod houses two rectangular magnets on the sides, two gold-plated spring-loaded pins and the sensor for activating the automatic puff placed in a raised position with respect to the bottom.

Voo-Poo-Argus-G-14.jpg


► Argus Disposable Pods:
ARGUS POD 0.7Ω cartridge and ARGUS POD 1.2Ω cartridge; With a patented multi-layer design, VooPoo built its cartridge with the intention of eliminating leaks by locking them securely within the structure itself. The cartridge made of transparent PCTG has an ergonomic lip spout and allows you to discreetly view the level of e-liquid inside it. The filling is done by lifting a silicone rubber, the good-sized hole allows you to easily insert up to 2ml of e-liquid. On the bottom of the cartridge there are 4 holes for the passage of air towards the coil, according to VooPoo this system expands the air flow that globally invests the coil, increasing the flavor, moreover the 4 holes are an integral part of the anti-leaking system present at the inside of the cartridge itself. On the bottom of the cartridge we can see that the magnets are NOT visible, actually there are and they work quite well.

► Argus Empty Pods:
This cartridge has the same characteristics as the disposable pod that I listed above, however the spare empty Pod (sold separately) allows you to use the replaceable ITO coils for both MTL and RDL. In this cartridge the coil is inserted from the bottom with a slight pressure.

Voo-Poo-Argus-G-15.jpg


In the tables below you can see all the "disposable pods" and all the "empty pods" compatible with the various Argus Pod devices. ARGUS Pod cartridges are compatible with the ARGUS POD family (ARGUS P1, ARGUS G, ARGUS Z, ARGUS POD, ARGUS POD SE). The empty cartridges are to be used in combination with ITO M1, M2, M3, M4 coils. Argus Pod G reaches a power of 25W Max for this reason and if you want to fully enjoy RDL-type extractions it is advisable to use the 0.5Ω (18-25W) ITO Coil. For this test VooPoo sent me two additional cartridges and two 0.5Ω ITO M4 replaceable coils for RDL, it's nice to have a replacement option like this compared to the original disposable cartridges.

Voo-Poo-Argus-G-16.jpg


Voo-Poo-Argus-G-17.jpg


► VooPoo Argus Pod G; Vape Test & Final Conclusions:

• ITO M4 Coils 0.5Ω range 18-25W:

For this test with the empty cartridge and the 0.5Ω ITO M4 coils (which VooPoo sent me separately) I used a self-produced e-liquid with Hypnos flavor diluted 10% in a base VG/PG 50:50 + 3mg/ ml of boost. For my way of vaping among all the available options this 0.5Ω ITO M4 Coils is definitely my favorite coil, very suitable for my needs for hot, abundant and full-bodied vapor, it gives my "Hypnos" all the aromatic notes I want, it also amplifies the boost present in the e-liquid to the maximum. The coil is detected by the chipset and automatically set to 23W which in my opinion is just the perfect wattage for it. This resistance passes the test with flying colors reaching a very high level of general performance, but above all I have not detected any worrying condensation. A definitely interesting Plus is the possibility of buying these empty cartridges as spare parts to be used with all the replaceable Ito coils; For example;
• 0.7Ω ITO M1 for an aggressive, airy and Hit-laden MTL vape.
• 1.0Ω ITO-M2 for MTL with a soft, velvety and narrow puff type in the right way for a discreetly airy MTL use.
• 1.2Ω ITO-M3 for MTL with a fluid puff type without spitting and with a perfect suction contrast for restricted MTL.

• Argus Disposable Pods:
In the package there are two disposable Pods with integrated coils; one of 1.2Ω and one of 0.7Ω dedicated to MTL vaping, my favorite is the 0.7Ω one because it provides greater Hit and heat, but I think both can really satisfy everyone as the aromatic yield is of a good level with exemplary operation and free from spitting. After a very intense use of both of these cartridges (on various VooPoo devices) I have not detected any trace of condensation in the compartment/pod. According to VooPoo the average coil life supports the vaping of around 30ml of e-liquid.

The new Argus Pod G in "Luxe" version is beautiful, well finished and relatively light with a robust zinc alloy construction. The Mod implements the oled screen becoming "professional" and more exploitable also in RDL. The GENE.AI 1.2 chip allows both manual and automatic double extraction. The automatic extraction mode works very well, in fact a slight aspiration is enough to activate the Puff instantly and with any degree of opening of the airflow, without any hesitation. The intelligent chipset detects the installed coil and automatically sets the best power, the button allows both lightning-fast activation and customized power setting and other adjustment options. The 1,000mAh battery seems really well managed by the chipset and recharges in a quick time of about 60 minutes, while recharging phase, the display shows the percentage and the time remaining at the end of the operation. That's really all for this interesting and modern Pod device which has many options to choose from disposable cartridges and empty cartridges with replaceable coils, I'm sure you will like Argus G.

• Thank you for reading.

► VooPoo Argus Pod SE; First Impressions:
For this test I received the "Shiny Orange" color version of the Argus Pod SE which is the latest minimalist style version of the VooPoo Air Pod series. The finished product features a very compact size, eye-catching look, sturdy metal construction, brand-worthy finish, and updated GENE.AI chipset. In the image below you can also see Argus Pod G (next review) which is the updated "rich" version of this successful series of Pod Mods by VooPoo.

Voo-Poo-Argus-Pod-SE-8.jpg


On the main panels; at the top and in relief there is the writing "Gene Chip Inside", on the opposite side there is the air flow regulation system (MTL) with scroll key made of zinc alloy like the rest of the body. Airflow adjustment allows you to go from loose MTL to tight MTL. On the lower panels, there are white silk-screened writings; on one side "VooPoo" and on the other side "Argus". The decorations are extended by the fine nanoscale lithography process, these decorations create a slight contrast of light and shadow against the bright orange color of this device.

Voo-Poo-Argus-Pod-SE-9.jpg


The side panels blend smoothly into the rest of the Argus SE body; on one side there is the small (almost invisible) writing "Designed By VooPoo", on the other side there is the notification interaction system made up of 3 LED lines.

► LED notifications:
• Three lit white LED lines correspond to a battery charge level between 66% and 100%
• Two lit white LED lines correspond to a battery charge level between 33% and 66%
• A lit white LED line corresponds to a battery charge level between 0% and 33%
• During the charging phase, the corresponding white LED will be on.
• At the end of the charge, the 3 white LEDs will remain on
• During the vape the LED light gradually becomes brighter.
• When the battery is low, the LED light turns red and flashes 10 times
• In the event of a short circuit, the LED flashes red twice
• During use, if you exceed 8s of uninterrupted vaping, the LED flashes red 8 times
• In the event of high temperatures, the LED flashes red 15 times.

Voo-Poo-Argus-Pod-SE-10.jpg


The Type-C charging port is located in the lower part of the Mod and allows the integrated 800mAh battery to be fully recharged in a rather short time, about 50 minutes.

Voo-Poo-Argus-Pod-SE-11.jpg


The Compartment/Pod houses two rectangular magnets on the sides, two gold-plated spring-loaded pins and the sensor for activating the automatic puff placed in a raised position with respect to the bottom.

All the ARGUS Pod cartridges are compatible with the ARGUS POD family (ARGUS P1, ARGUS G, ARGUS Z, ARGUS POD, ARGUS POD SE). On the occasion of this test VooPoo kindly sent me two empty cartridges to be used in combination with ITO M1, M2, M3 coils. Argus Pod SE reaches a power of 18W Max for this reason it is not recommended to use the 0.5Ω (18-25W) ITO Coil.

Voo-Poo-Argus-Pod-SE-14.jpg


► VooPoo Argus Pod SE; Final conclusions:
The new Argus Pod in minimalist version renounces the oled screen becoming user friendly and more compact. The GENE.AI 1.2 Chip on this Mod allows the one and only extraction of the automatic type, simplifying its operation for vape neophytes. In fact, a slight aspiration is enough to activate the Puff instantly, with any degree of opening of the airflow and without any hesitation. The 800mAh battery seems really well managed and recharges in a relatively short time. In the package there are two disposable ITO Pods, one of 1.2Ω and one of 0.7Ω dedicated to MTL vaping, my favorite is the 0.7Ω one because it provides greater Hit and heat, but I think both can really satisfy everyone as the aromatic yield It is of a good standard with exemplary operation and free from spitting.

Another certainly interesting Plus is the possibility of buying the empty cartridges as spare parts to be used with the replaceable Ito coils; such as 1.0Ω ITO-M2 for a soft and velvety type of puff, shrunk in the right way for a fairly airy MTL use. Or the 1.2Ω ITO-M3 which offers a smooth puff type without spitting with a perfect suction contrast for restricted MTL. I think this is really all that good that could be expected from a modern Pod system from VooPoo.
