► LVE Orion II 2 Kit; First Impressions:
I expected this new Orion II Kit to be marked Lost Vape, deepening my research I discovered that the acronym "LVE" is actually a new branch of Lost Vape Electronics. Orion II looks just like an improved upgrade of the original Orion, it keeps the classic Orion design with fine workmanship, the zinc alloy frame is available in 3 different colors, also with the use of the supplied suction cup there is the possibility to replace the panels, with others coming in five different color and material options, there's plenty to suit your every taste.
The Mod is powered by a 1500mAh Li-po battery with a maximum output of 40W. I was surprised by how heavy and solid this little device is, almost 130 grams of weight is a lot, however the handling is excellent, and the feeling of quality that this kit gives me is high. The endowment of this kit also includes a second coil and a second spare cartridge; and I really appreciated this detail too.
► LVE Orion II 2 Kit; Airflow:
The air flow control is controlled by a sturdy metal ring located at the base of the cartridge, its "infinite" rotation is facilitated by small vertical notches that favor the grip of the fingers on it. By rotating this ring you can get an open RDL vape, but also a really narrow and effective MTL vape.
► LVE Orion II 2 Kit; Internal battery:
The internal 1,500mAh battery takes about an hour to fully recharge and allows for a remarkable duration especially in MTL vaping, however I managed to get over 300 Puffs with a selected constant wattage of 26W, which is a really good result. The circuit allows to obtain an almost constant power delivery even with a low battery charge level. On the bottom of the LVE Orion there are 6 vent holes to ensure your safety in case of an unfortunate problem with the internal cell.
The LVE Orion chipset uses all the main security features:
• Auto power off protection
• PCBA overheat protection
• Protection without atomizer
• Short circuit protection
• Low voltage protection
• Over discharge protection
• Overload protection
• USB input protection
On the front side of LVE Orion you will find the cursor key that allows you to quickly extract the cartridge, below it there is the slightly protruding circular Fire key. The 0.69" OLED screen of Orion 2 clearly shows the main vaping data. The "+ and -" wattage adjustment keys are located below the screen, through these keys you can adjust the wattage from 5 to 40W with steps of 0.5W at a time.
The combination of the "+ and -" keys together with the fire key allows the following operations:
• 5 clicks on the fire button to turn on/off the device
• Press the Fire button and the "+" button simultaneously to lock or unlock the power adjustment.
• Press the Fire Button and the "-" Button simultaneously to clear the Puffs count.
In the images below you can appreciate how easy it is to quickly remove or replace the cartridge on the Orion 2 device. After sliding the slider key you can lock or unlock the cartridge. The cartridge slides securely on two rails machined into the raised "shoulder" of the Orion LVE.
► LVE Orion II 2 Kit; Orion 2 cartridge:
This cartridge is one of the highlights of this kit! The Drip-Tip is easily replaceable with any other 510 Drip Tip. The dark PCTG structure of the cartridge does not affect the control of the e-liquid level, moreover it will be easy to introduce up to 4.5ml of e-liquid through the screw cap of the charging system located at the top. The cap is LVE branded and is of fine workmanship with a sturdy metal construction. At the base of the cap there is a silicone oring for a perfect seal. The coil is inserted into the cartridge from below with a slight pressure.
► LVE Orion II 2 Kit; Platform Coils and Vaping Test:
Inside this kit you will find two different coils that are easily distinguishable by the color of the orings.
• Mesh Coil 0.4Ω is recognizable by the red orings, it is developed for RDTL/DTL with a range of power and use between 26 and 32W. The chipset with Smart sensing function recognizes it and activates it by default with an initial power of 26W. This is the most powerful coil available and it's also my favourite; it offers quite a rich flavor with a thick and plentiful vapor. The operation of this coil is smooth even closing the airflow and as you narrow the airflow you also get a good "hit in the throat". However the maximum performance (for me) is with the ring completely open and with a selected power of at least 28W.
• Mesh Coil 0.8Ω is recognizable by the blue orings, it is developed for MTL with a range of power and use between 12W and 16W. The chipset with smart sensing function recognizes it and activates it by default with an initial power of 12W. I also like this Coil because I think it is the ideal choice for most vapers; particularly for those looking for the perfect balance between vapor production and flavour. This resistor is designed to work best with a narrow airflow setting in combination with selected wattages starting at 10W and up to the desired upper level of max 16W. For me 12W is the ideal compromise between flavor and energy consumption. The low energy consumption of the cell allows you to obtain a great vaping autonomy with this coil.
► LVE Orion II 2 Kit; Final conclusions:
LVE Orion II 2 Kit lives up to its roots and improves something that is difficult to improve, also increasing the possibilities for aesthetic customization by replacing the panels. This kit basically stands out for a larger battery, for a higher level of finishes combined with robust and precious materials. Furthermore, the replaceable coils are at the level of the best productions on the market such as the Vaporesso GTX. The chipset in this evolution implements the Smart function that helps distracted users, this allows you to automatically select the optimal power for each resistance. The cartridge with a good 4.5ml capacity is a masterpiece of practicality, both for the rapid filling from the top and for the quick coupling system to the mod. All this has been intelligently exploited by LVE inheriting the systems of the previous Orion models. Personally, I don't regret the absence of the automatic Puff and I believe that this is certainly the best low cost pod I've ever tried at the moment. It would be nice for LVE to market a regenerable rba base for this cartridge.
