Looks magical
Thanks Angie.
I love the terrain, the picture is from the neighboring farm to mine, and even though the river is no more than three or four meters wide, the salmon go up it to spawn.
The older I get, the more I love the place I live, and these hunting days are with neighbors and childhood friends, it's rare that we get anything but the memories are just as good every time.

VOOPOO Vinci S - Review by RichieJ

Hello Guys!

Welcome to my site, today I would like to introduce you the VOOPOO Vinci S vape kit.

I am thankful to VOOPOO for sending me this device for the purpose of this review.

The VOOPOO Vinci S is available at their webshop in pre-sales currently for 18.90$

The Vinci S is Voopoo’s latest release: a power beast hidden under a stylish and minimalist design with simplistic operation. The device boasts industry leading characteristics: ample 4.5ml e-liquid capacity, 40W of max power and a 2000 mAh ultra endurance built-in lithium battery; these all packed into an eye-catching compact pod-system. The Vinic S perfectly combines portability with long-lasting power!

Color and design:

I received the device in Gold Gradient and there are 8 stylish colors available to choose from (Black, Blue Gradient, Gold Gradient, Green Gradient, Grey, Neon, Pink, Silver). The Vinci S is elegant to the very detail. The front and the back have a matte finish that prevents fingerprints, in contrast the two sides and a minimalistic top line received a shiny touch. This craftmanship provides a jewellery like appeal to the device. Just a discrete Voopoo logo at the front and a small VINCI branding is engraved at the back. The front received a micro-engraved Luminous Palette design element with a stylish RGB line that flows in multicolor when a draw is taken and at the end of the lightshow the battery level is indicated: Green (100-60%), blue (60-30%) and red (30-0%). The device automatically sets the best wattage for the attached cartridge and it has an ultra responsive auto-draw sensor. The device is always on. Always in style!

Battery performance:

The device’s main strength is its massive 2000 mAh built in lithium battery that delivers effortlessly 3 days of power under heavy use with the 0.6Ω cartridge, with the 0.8 Ω this will extend to 4-5 days of pleasure, free of any maintenance.

The USB-C port is located at the side; hence the device can be charged in a vertical position and due to its sleek base, it stands firmly upside. The RGB LED will be flashing while charging, full charge is indicated with a continues green light. The device supports 1A charging, hence the process will take slightly longer, a bit over 1 hour, however you can vape on it while charging.

Size and weight:

106.2*30.2*21.3mm (pod included). Made of aluminium alloy and weighs only 69 grams.

The Vinci S is just slightly thicker than the average pod-system, however it claims almost doubled battery and e-liquid capacity in exchange. Due to its compact size, the rounded form and lightweight it feels like holding a Robolo cigar between your fingers. I only had a hand-wrapped cigarillo for the shooting.

Size and capacity wise the closest device I can compare it with is the Vaporesso XR Max, however their price tag shows a huge difference.

Pod / cartridge:

The Vinci S starter kit comes with one disposable 0.8Ω Vinci S cartridge that delivers between 12-16W of power and it is cross-compatible with a high variety of cartridges (Vinci S, Vinci E, Argus E40 and Vinci PNP X replaceable coil platform). The ICOSM Code V 2.0 system, that is first introduced with the Vinci series cartridges, provides leak free 100ml endurance, that I can certainly confirm. The standard 0.8Ω cartridge is the perfect selection for a genuine MTL vape with high nicotine content e-liquids and as such the experience is best comparable to that of disposable vapes. Once you got the feel and want to experiment with lower strength traditional e-liquids at higher wattage ranges, the 0.6Ω would be your better option, as it fires between 18-23W. I tested both cartridges; since I am more into RDL vaping the 0.6Ω was my favourite and I still use it in my daily rotation after two weeks of heavy testing. I filled it with Halo’s new Arctic Melon concentrate mixed at 8mg and it provides me a flavorful delight with a powerful throat hit and beautiful dense vapors. After this step you can even more deepen into the world of open vaping systems by purchasing the 5ml VINCI PNP X empty cartridge with replaceable coils to your preference. The whole palette of PNP X coils is compatible with the VINCI S between 0.3-1.0Ω resistance. I would love to try the Vinci S with the 0.45Ω PnP X coil. At this point you will want to consider upgrading to the Vinci E120 where the sub-ohm world will open for you, while still using the same cartridges!

I would like to highlight that the cartridge attaches with 4 strong magnets and holds very tightly in its position - it connects so well that you can hold the device firmly by the cartridge, it will never disconnect or wiggle around.

Cartridge compatibility:
  • Vinci S 0.6Ω/0.8Ω Pod Cartridge
  • Vinci E 0.3/0.6/0.8Ω Pod Cartridge
  • Argus E40 0.3/0.45/0.6Ω Pod Cartridge
  • Vinci PnP X Empty cartridge DTL/MTL with
  • PnP X coils in the range of: 0.3/0.45/0.6/0.8/1.0Ω

Final verdict:

The Vinci S is a true gateway towards the open vaping systems and provides you much of flexibility to experiment between the various vaping styles (MTL/RDL/DTL) without any compromises with battery performance, power delivery and e-liquid capacity. Voopoo made this all available to you for a reasonable budget in a stylish and eye-catching design!

I would wish there would be a fire button and perhaps a power boost function, similarly as what the SMOK NOVO ECO has.

Hope you liked my review; would you have any advices or questions don’t hesitate to connect with me.

Happy vaping folks!
