    Hello again folks, today's review is on a new Kit from Freemax The mod portion of the kit is the Maxus 100 and the tank portion is the Fireluke 3. The color choices and design might not fit everyone's profile but bear with me on this before making any judgement just yet. As always lets get to know this new Kit from Freemax a little bit better before the review.

    FIRST IMPRESSIONS

    My first impression of this kit after opening was WOW extremely colorful tank and mod panel as you can see in the kit contents picture.


    INCLUDED WITH THE KIT.jpg






    I say panel because only the colorful panel is removeable with the other side consisting of a black backing with Maxus 100W branding.

    The screen portion is located on one side of the Mod with the power button above it and the up & down buttons below, below them is the Type-C charge port.

    The Maxus 100 that was sent to me has become a favorite because of it's form which although a little weighty fits the hand nicely with rounded corners and good button placement position along with 0 performance issues in the long time I've been using it.

    As the name implies the Maxus 100 is capable of 100 watts and scrolls from 5 w - 100 w in 5 seconds ( very fast ). The Maxus 100 is a single battery device that can be used with a 21700, 20700 or a 18650 battery with the provided sleeve adapter. The colorful battery panel is held in place with 2 very strong magnets located at the top and bottom of the device with one being a narrow oblong one and the other being more square. I've been using the Maxus 100 with a Molicel 21700 that is slightly thicker than other 21700 batteries and it fits just fine, the top battery post is spring loaded so install your battery pushing upward with your battery.

    The 510 top plate has cutouts for any tanks that get their air supply from the 510, I think it a nice aesthetic look for the 510 top plate. By the way the 510 is spring loaded also.

    The bottom of the device has a slot that's helpful in removing the color battery panel cover, there is also 5 venting holes .

    THE MAXUS 100 USES A VERY EASY MENU SYSTEM

    * 5 quick presses of the power button turns the device on or off
    * 3 quick presses of the power button brings you into the menu ( MODE, SET, INFO, EXIT )
    * Once in the menu using the up & down buttons will scroll you through your choices, the mode your in will be highlighted then press the power button once highlighted and more choices for that mode will appear highlighted. ( VERY EASY MENU )




    FIRELUKE 3 TANK

    As everyone knows Freemax is known for coils that produce fantastic flavor from their tanks and the Fireluke 3 continues this with the new coils for this tank. The top cap of the tank is a slide to open type of top cap that has 3 ball bearings that when closed secure it in the closed position with a distinctive click, much force is needed to slide open making it unlikely to accidentally open when in a pocket. There is a red dot located on the bottom of the top cap, that is the place you slide to open for filling. The bubble glass that Freemax supplies is shaped in a way as to not bulge out to much as other bubble glass tanks do. The bubble glass is also facetted and catches every glimmer of light for a sparkle shine of diamonds. Air lovers will be very happy to know the Fireluke 3 is very airy with duel air intake slots located across from each other that can also be turned down for a nice restricted DL vape.

    The new coil ( 904L X2 MESH- 0.2Ω ) that I'm using is rated for 40 - 80 watts , I'm very happy at 60 with the airflow at about half to 3/4 open. Freemax is using a new military grade SS904L Mesh and Tea Fiber Cotton that produces fantastic flavor.

    I almost forgot to show you a picture of the top cap open and the fill port , I wish the top cap could open just a hair more. You can really see the faceted diamond cuts in the glass better in this picture also.

    Well folks as you can see I'm very happy with this new kit from Freemax, I have used products from Freemax before and have always been happy especially from their Tanks because of the flavor they produce and the Fireluke 3 fell right in line with the others with exceptional flavor. As far as the Mod goes the colors won't be for everybody, even I was not crazy about it but it has really grown on me that I really like it colors and all. The mod performs great and fits my hand so well without any sharp corners making it uncomfortable in any way. The Maxus has a solid well made feel to it not in any way cheap at all. Having 3 battery options in a well performing Mod is a big plus.

    I don't use any Temp Control features in my daily vape that's why they are absent in my reviews so don't hold that against me. The Maxus 100 gives the user every option available in a mod, Power, Bypass, VPC ( VARIABLE POWER CURVE ), SS, NI, TI, AND 3 TCR settings to make it a full featured mod that performs wonderfully with a Tank that produces flavor so well you would swear your eating it.

    If your looking for a kit that gives it's user a colorful Mod that functions great with many options in the menu along with 3 battery options as well as being solidly well built along with a Tank famous for flavor with new improvements the Maxus 100 Kit is for you.

    I would like to thank Jerry, Linda , Tina and Freemax for providing the Maxus 100 Kit for review and hope I helped anyone thinking of purchasing the Maxus 100 Kit.

    THANK YOU
