So here today we have the Armour G graciously provided to me by Sourcemore for the purpose of this review. Since it's snowing i figured I'd review this the same night I got it so it may be a tad different than my past reviews but still going to be as detailed and insightful as my reviews usually are. I will of course update this particular review as time goes on and I spend more time with this little kit. Technical jargon and specs first, my thoughts on the kit as well as pros/cons, and my verdict.

Review

I got this kit in the Green colorway of this kit to match my 94 Accord (because it's visually pleasing when they match) today (this morning to be exact) and I've been using it all day without charging it.... yet. I decided to do the review the same day because, as we got snow today, I figured what better way to test it than going and running my errands and plowing my driveway? So how did it handle the tasks? Well fantastically actually. It came with a 69% (i kid you not as you can see in pics) charge fresh out of the box. I filled it to the max using the preinstalled.2ohm coil. I used a standard

70/30 iuice by the Cloud Chemist called Peggy's Vanilla Latte in Omg for this first tank. It's been ran down to 30% battery charge as of 2 minutes ago and I will be charging it before I go to bed. And no it will not be charged overnight because, well, we've seen what can happen to unattended charging vapes. I've filled it 2x (on my second tank currently) and roughly 260 puffs. So it is a tad bit thirsty but the Patented Mega Batt seems to live up to the hype in terms of life. I've not noticed any drop in performance as the battery drained either which is friggin awesome. I will say that in a day or 2 I will be forgoing the .4ohm spare coil included in the kit in favor of a .15ohm GTX coil as the .15 and.2 are more my speed in terms of vaping style. Now it is, as far as I'm concerned, living up to the abuse that Northeasterner winters can throw at a vape. It's landed in a salty water puddle and with only a wet down, wipe off and drying, was completely fine. It's been dropped out of my CX5 onto the cement garage floor and aside from a little paint chip, been fine. The clouds and flavor are actually on par with the LUXE XR MAX, however IMO the Armour G has a much better form factor in every aspect. Its thinner, roughly the same height (without the drip tip) and is easier to use with actual buttons instead of the hidden ones like on the Luxe. My only problem with it, is the choice of coils included in the kit, which is of course subjective. I would prefer a .2ohm preinstalled and a.15ohm spare. But that's because I'm a DTL vaper to my core. I do however, understand that they included the .4ohm to satiate the RDL/MTL vapers of the world which that coil does phenomenally well at. My other gripe is that the drip tip, is a 510 which makes using a custom drip tip difficult. However, I do feel like the included drip tip performs better than any 510 custom drip tip will and it looks better atop the kit too IMO. I'm actually thoroughly surprised that my 2 cons aren't really cons, so much as just personal preference. Another thing I noticed is that the top of the pod where the tip connects to as well as the coil inside the tank, is actual metal and not a plasticy wanna be metal. That's a nice, solid touch in my opinion. The AFC has no wiggle at all and feels very secure and solid, as well as having markings of 0, 1, 2, 3 before being fully open and being fully DTL. Overall a 9.8/10. This is because, well, the included coils hold it back from being a 10/10. Hence why I detract 2 tenths of a point from it's score. Hopefully within the next couple of reviews I will have the External 18650 battery variant to review and I can do a full side by side test and see which one is the best of the 2 new Armour G kits.

Verdict

If you're looking for a small, capable, fun and easy to use Vaporesso kit, I sincerely recommend this kit. This is gonna be under heavy use for the foreseeable future as I absolutely love it's form fit and function.

Update: This thing is amazing! The tank DOES NOT LEAK!!! My Voopoo Argus, Vinci and prior to that the catastrophe of the Geekvape Aegis boost (one died from the tank leaking) all leaked. So far, not a drop! Battery life is outstanding as well, I get a day and a half out of a full charge. Vaporesso just nailed it with this thing!
