VooPoo VRIZZ 2
VooPoo VRIZZ 2 is the name of the device I'm bringing you today. It's a POD-type device, very similar to a disposable but clearly is not, whose objective is to try and facilitate the step from the aforementioned disposables to PODs. If you recall, the VRIZZ came out some time ago, so in this review we are going to see what has changed and how they have done it.
Thanks in advance to VooPoo for making this review possible; you can visit their website and learn more about the VRIZZ 2.

Packaging
Let's briefly talk about the packaging. As you can see, VooPoo has changed it due to its 8th anniversary. Now the predominant colors are yellow and black. We can observe the brand and model of this device at the top. In the center, we observe a direct image, which in this case matches the color of this unit. It is also indicated that it has 15mL capacity. Furthermore, we observe the 8, referencing the anniversary in the background of this front part.
On the back of the packaging, we can first observe all the contents of the box:
On the back of the packaging, we can first observe all the contents of the box:
- 1* VRIZZ 2
- 1* VRIZZ Cartridge V2 0.7 Ω | 0.4 Ω (15mL)
- 1* User Manual
We are also shown some contact addresses, some logos, and some warnings.
Device
From this image, I show you the area of the screen, the lanyard attachment, and the button for changing modes. Let's start by talking a bit about the materials used for the construction of this device. In this specific edition and three others, the construction materials are (synthetic) leather and polycarbonate; however, in the others, the leather part is not present and is replaced by one made of Aluminum alloy. In general, it is a relatively large device, mainly due to the cartridge capacity. It is quite a bit larger than a BP Mods Warhammer, for example (a mod I use daily).
Now, from this area, as I mentioned before, you can see the lanyard attachment; it is like a small clip that is pressed at the top and opens. We insert the lanyard and can hang it around our neck. However, this VRIZZ 2 does not come with the lanyard included, which I am not entirely convinced about, because what would it cost to add it to the box contents?
Well, moving down, we find the screen, which we will talk about in more depth later, and finally, we find the button, useful for switching between ECO, NORMAL, and TURBO modes.
On the screen, we find simple information ordered from top to bottom:
- Battery percentage.
- Dual mesh or single mesh use (I will talk about this in the next paragraph).
- Vaping mode indicator.
Well, if we use the ECO mode, we will be alternatively using the 0.7 Ω coil and the 0.4 Ω coil, perhaps a bit low for nicotine salts but it might be sufficient if we don't use a very high concentration. If we use the NORMAL or TURBO mode, we will be using both coils simultaneously.
Is it noticeable when vaping? Yes, of course it is noticeable, but it's not as exaggerated as VooPoo advertises. I think it's a good feature, of course, but it's not extremely useful and the difference is not notable enough to be essential. I must say that the battery saving is quite noticeable.

If we talk about the cartridge, we can say that it has an exorbitant capacity; it holds 15mL of liquid, which can last a very long time, and I assure you of that. To refill it, we must open the silicone flap located on the bottom. In this case, VooPoo offers the market this 0.4Ω | 0.7Ω cartridge, the 0.4Ω single mesh cartridge, and the 0.7Ω single mesh cartridge. I must say that the drip tip is really comfortable; it is small and perfectly molds to the lips.
As for flavor and vapor, we will discuss that later in the 'Vaping Time' section.
On the bottom of the device, we can find the air intake and the charging port. Regarding the air intake, it is composed of 8 small and completely identical holes and can be fully closed. I can affirm that it is not a device for MTL; it is for RDL. It is not capable of providing a draw so tight as to be fully satisfactory for MTL.
As for the charging port, a current of 1.2A/5V is used, slightly higher than that of the VRIZZ and somewhat noticeable. This is in addition to the fact that it uses a new, larger 1350mAh battery, compared to the 800mAh battery of its little brother.

Vaping Time & Conclusion
Let's move on to the vaping test. As you know, VooPoo is known for creating cartridges and coils that produce very good flavor, and the VRIZZ 2 is no exception. The flavor of this cartridge is good, although I don't notice much difference between the simultaneous or alternative dual coil use, only in terms of power. As for vapor production, remember that in TURBO mode it is capable of reaching 30W, so it is relatively high.
Regarding the feel in the hand, it is a slightly larger device than I expected, especially compared, for example, to the Vaporesso Eco Nano; however, the battery size and the cartridge capacity must be taken into account. Something I don't like is that in this leather version, a very plasticky feel in the hand is noticeable, which is not very pleasant, and I don't know what it will be like in the Aluminum alloy version.
Is it an improved version of the VRIZZ? Yes, of course it is. It comes with a larger battery capacity, a higher power limit, a new dual mesh cartridge, better airflow regulation, and slightly faster charging.
I think it's a good device, especially considering and believing that the main objective is to create the transition from disposables to POD systems.
