    First impressions:

    Vapelustion with this Witness 80w has practically redesigned the Drag X, reworking its body in a very pleasant and successful way in my opinion. The sinuous shapes are well connected to each other, the design appears less angular than its rival, with a weight of about 20g higher it also appears more solid, the appearance is more enhanced by the bronze finishes on a black background.
    A structural difference with the Drag X is represented by the magnetic cover covered in leather, so the battery does not have to be inserted from below, but inserted by removing the back cover.

    Vapelustion Witness is available in this unique color with a refined and successful Vintage effect.

    The side view highlights a rather elaborate design compared to the basic concept, towards the front the body tapers off protruding from the central body, this pronounced part incorporates the front control part of the mod.
    The magnetic cover with its bronze-colored perimeter extends in a long embrace to the center of the device.
    The bronze finishes also embellish the upper part, elegantly delimit the edges of the air slots and completely cover the generous AFC adjustment knob.

    The front is a triumph of well-connected lines, the protruding area (mentioned above) houses the 0.96 "oled screen. The three spherical-shaped adjustment buttons are solid and well-sized, at the top and in relief there is the writing "WIT" (diminutive Witness), while in the lower part we find the Usb-C charging socket.

    The leather of the cover houses some writings with different sizes and different characters, all imprinted and branded.
    The handle is solid and the soft coating is pleasant to the touch.

    The compartment / pod is characterized by the well-known "circular" arrangement screwed to the frame for magnetic contact. In the center of the pod compartment are the gold / plated contact pins.

    On the bottom of the mod in addition to the disposal logo and the (CE) mark, there are three valuable non-slip rubber pads.

    The 18650 cell slot is the only plastic (fireproof) part of this mod, the removable cover is built in sturdy zinc alloy (like the frame).
    The negative pin is spring loaded, the two magnets placed inside the cover have a considerable magnetic force and together with the solid structure guarantee a perfect closure of the compartment / battery.

    The pod is built in PCTG and is practically identical to that of VooPoo, in reality it seems to contain a few more cc of liquid, the drip.tip is fixed, the refill occurs in the lower part, in the same way as the Drag X & S.

    0.3Ω Mesh-Coil Sense WP (25-40W):
    These Coils can be purchased in blisters of 5pcs each. I remember full compatibility with the whole PnP-Coil series including the PnP-RBA.

    How Vapelustion Witness 80W works:

    After installing the battery, the device starts automatically and before entering the main interface it shows "Vapelustion and the Sense chipset logo"

    The graphic level of residual charge, the active mode, the output power, the output voltage, the resistance, the duration of the last puff and the total puff are indicated on the 0.96 "screen.

    - To turn on / off the mod quickly press the fire button five times
    - To lock / unlock the buttons (+ and -) press the Fire button and the + button simultaneously.
    - To reset the total number of puffs, press the "- and Fire" buttons at the same time.
    - To change the colors of the theme (Blue, red, yellow, light blue), press the + and - buttons at the same time to enter the menu settings, to scroll through the colors use the +/- buttons. Press the Fire button to exit and confirm, alternatively, stay idle for 10 seconds and the system will automatically confirm.

    Mode change:
    Quickly press the Fire button three times to switch RBA Mode (red by default) to SMART mode (Yellow by default)

    - RBA mode: You can freely adjust the output power by +/- buttons from 5W to 80W.

    - SMART mode: The system automatically adjusts all compatible resistors and prevents them from exceeding their power limit.
    Each coil is assigned a "Best wattage", to avoid premature burns of the coils.

    * Coil 0.15Ω - Maximum power value: 80W: Automatic best wattage: 65W.
    * Coil 0.30Ω - Maximum power value: 40W: Automatic best wattage: 30W.
    * Coil 0.45Ω - Maximum power value: 35W: Automatic best wattage: 25W.
    * Coil 0.60Ω - Maximum power value: 26W: Best automatic wattage: 20W.
    * Coil 0.80Ω - Maximum power value: 16W: Automatic best wattage: 12W.
    * Coil 1.00Ω - Maximum power value: 14W: Automatic best wattage: 10W.
    * Coil 1.20Ω - Maximum power value: 14W: Automatic best wattage: 10W.
    * Coil 1.40Ω - Maximum power value: 12W: Automatic best wattage: 08W.
    * Coil 1.60Ω - Maximum power value: 12W: Automatic best wattage: 08W.
    * Coil 1.80Ω - Maximum power value: 12W: Automatic best wattage: 08W.
    * Coil 2.00Ω - Maximum power value: 12W: Automatic best wattage: 08W.

    Protections:
    - Low Voltage Protection
    - Short-circuit protection
    - Open circuit protection
    - PCB temperature protection (85 °)
    - Reload protection (if you vape the activation is interrupted).
    - Cut Off 10s

    - Usb-C charging:
    Unlike smartphone chips, e-cigarette chips are not protected by QC3.0 or any other fast charging protocol.
    Using a non-specific charger can cause damage to an electronic cigarette's chipset and its battery.
    I recommend using a 5V / 2A charger or buying an external charger for charging the 18650 cell.

    Final Conclusions:
    Surely a Mod-Pod with this specific form factor has a design already widely exploited by most of its competitors, to name a few: Aspire BP80, VooPoo Drag X and S, Smok Thallo and many others.
    Some of these manufacturers have similar devices in their catalog that use large capacity 21700 batteries, others use more advanced Pod-tanks than this "VooPoo Style".

    However I find some "strong points" in this exotic Mod-Pod 18650, the first "strong point" certainly has a subjective value, I refer to its appearance, for me particularly successful and really captivating, I consider it more beautiful and graceful than its competitors .

    Other aspects such as portability, size and chipset are more or less similar to the best production, however I noticed a battery management probably superior to all the others, then there is the lock of the adjustment keys "+ and - "(important to me).

    The only demerit note I attribute to the Pod / coil system, the tank while allowing a large liquid capacity (5ml), has a non-replaceable drip-tip

    The kit includes only one coil (plus an identical spare), it could be a demerit note but in this case it can be easily remedied by drawing on the vast catalog of the competition ...

    The 0.3Ω Mesh-Coil Sense WP (25-40W) has a wider range than the VooPoo PnP VM1 (32-40W) and could be enough on its own to satisfy the majority of vapers looking for a fairly "universal" coil .
    At 25W it is able to obtain a contrasting flavor in conjunction with an important portion of the closure of the AFC.

    With the "Smart" system activated, the chipset sets this coil to a best wattage of 30W, with this power the WP mesh-coil activates perfectly and guarantees the same excellent aromatic level we are used to with PnP coils, to increase the performance enough open the AFC and get close to 40W which among other things this coil seems to hold up very well.

    From Christmas 2020 to this part I have done about 10 refills of 5ml, with constant use at 30W! The coil still has good performance and this is really surprising, among other things there are no losses and the formation of condensation is completely negligible even with 50/50 liquids and after very intense use.

    The manufacturer's suggested retail price (MSRP) is around $ 46usd about € 37.93, an inviting starting price, for those who want to stand out from the crowd with a really nice object with excellent performance and finishes.

    Thanks to Vapelustion in the person of Mike for sending me the device for review.
