I don’t know about happy but I got the tree up. The wife still isn’t feeling the best and we may not get much more done. The tree is flocked and really makes a mess. I had to vacuum after we adjusted the branches and had it all over my sweatshirt.Happy decorating.

GeekVape Peak 2
The Geekvape Peak 2 is the pod device I’m presenting to you today. It features a 1600mAh battery, a maximum power output of 20W, and comes with 3-level airflow adjustment.
Let's get into the review, but first, I want to thank Healthcabin for making this possible. You can visit their website to learn more about the Geekvape Peak 2.

Packaging
The device comes in a rectangular box that uses orange as the predominant color. Some branding is displayed at the top. In the center of the front of the packaging, we can see an image of the Peak 2; in this case, it matches the chosen color of this unit, but I am not sure if there is packaging for each color.
We can also see a black lightning bolt underneath, shown in the background. On the left side, the name of the device can be seen. I find it to be very elegant and beautiful packaging that catches the eye at first glance.

Inside the box, we find;
- 1* Peak 2 Device
- 1* Pre-Installed Peak 0.8Ω Cartridge
- 1* Spare Peak 0.8Ω Cartridge
- 1* USB Type-C Cable
- 1* Manual
- 1* Warranty & Info Card
Device
From this image, I can generally describe almost the entire device. First of all, let's talk about its shape. It features a rectangular shape but with rounded edges, making it extremely comfortable in the hand. Also, regarding dimensions, it is really tiny; it fits easily, and in fact, only the drip tip sticks out if we hold it with the whole hand. Regarding its materials, it seems appropriate to include them in this paragraph. Zinc alloy and leather are used, I imagine synthetic. The leather has, at least in this color, a very comfortable and subtle velvety feel, not to mention the aesthetic touch provided by the color patterns created depending on how the light hits it.
On the right side, we can see a small oval window that serves as a remaining liquid indicator. This window is found on both sides and is really useful for avoiding burning the coil's cotton. I would have liked a small "min" mark to know exactly when to refill it.
If we look down a bit, we will find a white line; that line is the LED battery indicator, which displays the following colors;

If we look down a bit, we will find a white line; that line is the LED battery indicator, which displays the following colors;
- Red, 0 to 20% battery.
- One blue quarter, 21-40% battery.
- Two blue quarters, 41-60% battery.
- Three blue quarters, 61-80% battery.
- Full green bar, 81-100% battery.
From this image, we can also easily see the charging port. In this case, Geekvape has incorporated 5V/2A fast charging compared to the old Peak, not to mention that its battery is 300mAh larger than its older brother.
I don't think I fell short, and I’ve given a quite complete description of the entire device. Something I would love is a rubber base, since it is currently made of plastic and is quite slippery on smooth surfaces like a table, for example. Aesthetically, honestly, it catches my eye immediately, and in terms of build materials, it is amazing; the feel of the leather is very good, it is light, small, and beautiful.
From the bottom of the cartridge, we can see two things: on one hand, the airflow adjustment, and on the other, how the POD-Battery connection is made.
Let's start with the airflow adjustment. Geekvape has decided to place it at the bottom of the cartridge, so we have to disconnect it every time we want to change it, in case we are very indecisive. It mainly consists of 3 holes intended for a quite open MTL. The adjustment is done by turning a small plastic wheel that covers or opens the airflow inlet holes, allowing it to be closed until only one remains visible and functional. I can't say I love this airflow adjustment system, because I don't, but that doesn't mean it isn't effective. It does seem to me that it could have been done in a more comfortable way, because honestly, I pick up this device and I feel too lazy to adjust the airflow just because of where it is positioned and how it has to be done; this is something more subjective, of course. The important thing is that it meets the objective, which is to restrict the airflow more or less, but does it meet it? Honestly, I don't notice a big difference between having it fully open or closed; both are a relatively open MTL and it doesn't quite reach a completely satisfying MTL draw in my opinion.
Regarding the connection to the battery, it is done in the traditional way, via two magnets positioned on the cartridge. The cartridge has some play and can be disconnected with relative ease. I must also say that the cartridge only accepts one position, which is the one in the previous image; the drip tip must be on the opposite side to the liquid window, otherwise, it doesn't fit and doesn't connect.
From this image, we can observe the silicone tab used to refill the 4mL liquid capacity of this cartridge. It is a simple silicone flap, quite large, which reveals a significant hole to refill with our favorite liquid.
The drip tip has a very pleasant mouthfeel, as it is very small and fits the lips very well. Also, although it might look like it, it is not interchangeable; it is completely fixed and focused more on MTL.

Vaping Time
Let's move on to the real test, the vape test, where I will evaluate flavor, vapor, comfort, battery life...
Let's start with the conclusions regarding flavor and vapor, but not before mentioning that I only tested the 0.8Ω cartridge. The flavor is quite good; it’s nothing out of this world nor does it provide an exaggeratedly powerful flavor. To try to compare it, it is not at the level of flavor that VooPoo's PNP coils or Vaporesso's Xros can provide, but it is certainly not bad; I wouldn't know how to describe it better. As for vapor, it is what we can expect from a device focused more on MTL than anything else: vapor that isn't very dense and in small amounts, perfect for discreet vaping.
Regarding the airflow, I simply don't like it; it seems to me that it doesn't filter the air well and that there is almost no difference between having it open or fully closed. The adjustment doesn't convince me either; I find the position it is in and the adjustment method very uncomfortable.
As for the battery, taking into account that it is vaped between 15-20W, and that it features a 1600mAh capacity, I can safely say that it lasts me the whole day if I don't chain vape. I also recommend using salts in this type of device (unless for whatever reason you don't like them or they just aren't your thing), because I notice that the time between puffs is longer and more spaced out.

I was right, she's engaged.
The colored stone is the newest trend. Also, engagement rings for men, too. They are manly and dont have the large stone. She's got a ring for him that I'm sure he'll get today.
