► Smok Nfix Pro Pod Kit; First Impressions:
Smok releases so many products, often similar to each other that it is sometimes difficult to catalog the differences of what each of them can offer. At first glance, I thought the new NFix Pro had pretty much the same features as the original NFix, in fact they both have an LED screen and a single control button with adjustable power and 700mAh battery.
However, there are two significant updates on the NFix Pro which I guess somehow justify the name "PRO" ... Nfix Pro uses replaceable coils from the LP1 mesh range which are the same used by the Novo-4 Pod Mod, so these coils should to do a good job. Additionally, the NFix Pro has a adjustable AFC which offers better airflow control than the original Nfix and Nfix Mate.
The Smok Nfix Pro looks like a classic stick with a rather thin and manageable octagonal design. The Nfix Pro is built from aluminum so it's slightly heavier than equivalent plastic-built devices, but this makes it look better quality and it's also undoubtedly firmer and more robust than the average entry-level Pod Mods.
► Smok Nfix Pro Pod Kit; Operation Guide:
The NFix range falls into the category of pod systems that are easy to use but that offer something more than the more common and simple pod kits on the market. The device is equipped with a 0.69 ″ OLED display that shows the following settings (wattage, coil resistance, Puff counter, battery status). The pull is automatic and the only button under the screen is used only for the on-off and for the adjustment of the power parameters, which is adjustable between 5-25W.
• On / Off: Press the key 5 times
• Power setting: Press the button 3 times, the power flashes. Adjust the power from 5W to 25W by pressing the button once
• Puff Counter: The total number of puffs is reset each time the Mod is turned off and the counter automatically resets when it reaches 9999P.
► The meaning of the notifications on the screen is described below:
• BATTERY LOW: The battery voltage is less than 3.3V ± 0.1V before vaping; The battery voltage is less than 3.0V ± 0.1V when vaping.
(Please charge the device)
• Goodbye: The battery voltage is less than 3.1V ± 0.1V (charge the device)
• OHMS TOO LOW: The atomizer resistance is less than 0.6Ω ± 5%.
• OHMS TOO HIGH: The atomizer resistance is more than 3.0Ω ± 5%.
• NO ATOMIZER: The atomizer was not detected.
• ATOMIZER SHORT: A short circuit has been detected and the white LED indicator blinks 5 times.
• TIME OVER: The continuous activation time exceeds 8s.
► Smok Nfix Pro Pod Kit; AFC:
NFix Pro is also equipped on the back of the device with a simple sliding and adjustable airflow switch so that you can customize the MTL puff to your preferences.
► Smok Nfix Pro Pod Kit; Pod compartment and charging socket:
The cartridge coupling system in the device is of a simple interlocking type without magnets, however it is well made, the cartridge fits into the pressure mod and to extract it you need to pull firmly. On the bottom of the Pod compartment there are two gold-plated contacts for the electrical transfer to the coil and the automatic puff sensor.
The support base of Nfix Pro is not wide, however it is able to easily keep the device upright even during the charging phase. The built-in 700mAh battery can be charged via the supplied USB Type-C cable at a charge rate of 0.7A. Smok claims the Nfix Pro can fully charge in 70 minutes.
► Smok Nfix Pro Pod Kit; Refillable cartridge:
The dark colored PCTG Pod does not complicate the visualization of the internal liquid level and has a well designed and rather comfortable spout for the lips. It can contain up to 2ml of liquid, the refill is accessed by lifting the rubber cap which is placed on the side, on the cap there is an arrow that indicates the opening direction. Filling can also be done with classic bottles with "normal" tips as the hole on the cartridge is quite large and convenient.
Replaceable resistors are pushed in from below. The Coils have 2 flat sides that match the bottom of the pod. This means that the coil only goes a certain way so make sure you insert it correctly.
► Smok Nfix Pro Pod Kit; Replaceable Coils and Vaping Test:
Smok LP1 is the series of Meshed Coils recently launched on the Novo-4 device with the aim of promoting a leak-proof flavorful vaping experience! There are a total of three silicone o'rings on the top and bottom of the coils to effectively prevent leakage. In the Nfix Pro kit there are a 0.9Ω and a 1.2Ω, I tested them both with a 50/50 "crispy puft" e-liquid with 4mg / ml of boost.
The Nfix Pro's adjustable airflow is exactly what you need for a proper MTL vape. When the AFC is fully open the draw remains MTL without encroaching on the RDL, but can be reduced to a very restricted MTL draw. LP1 Meshed Coil MTL 0.9Ω is indicated by Smok to be used at constant 15W
which is a good level of potency to bring out the flavor of my Crispy Puft. The spare 1.2Ω LP1 Meshed Coil MTL has a range of use indicated by Smok between 10 and 15W and I honestly didn't notice a big difference between the two. The flavor is slightly less intense than the previous 0.9Ω coil, but if you like a fresher vape it's not bad. The flavor and hit of these coils seem even higher than in the previous Novo-4 device, and those pods were already very good. Another important aspect in the performance of this type of device for me is the accuracy and reliability of the automatic activation system of the puff. Nfix Pro has a well-calibrated automatic activation that works as it should, with no delays and with little suction effort.
► Smok Nfix Pro Pod Kit; Final conclusions:
Who is Nfix Pro suitable for? For all MTL Vapers who want a Pod system that is easy to use, sturdy and light to carry, yet offers good leak proof replaceable coils, and with the ability on the device to adjust both power and airflow.
