Hi Folks,

I received the Move 60 Starter Kit directly from Viva Kita. This is available to buy now. I will convey my thoughts and do my very best to provide you with enough information so you can reach your own conclusion on the product, so no recommendations from me, just a final conclusion of my personal experience with it.

The box is decent quality, with some basic graphics on the front. Upon opening you are presented with the Move 60 and the tank above it. As with all of Viva Kita’s starter kits I’ve received the bits and pieces are underneath the plastic tray. Inside is very much a no frills affair, I would like to have seen a spare glass section included with the spares as well.

The Mod

The Move 60 is the latest offering from Viva Kita in the starter kit range. Designed very much for new vapers in mind. Comes as a two piece so should you not get on with the tank, the mod will still house all your 22mm atomisers with no problems.

The finish is good on both the mod and the tank overall, they haven’t just used a really thin layer of paint It feels like they’ve applied a thick layer of lacquer to keep that paint on the mod where it should be. Obviously keys in your pocket or things like that will mess a finish up no matter what they do but in comparison to other mods I’ve used this is one of the better ones.

The 510 pin on the mod is gold plated and has a good throw on it. Threading is decent enough.

I put a few atomisers on there with varying thread lengths just to check it was all ok. I did notice I had scratched the pin with one of my atomizers pins but the mod was still perfectly functional. Here are some pics to give you an indication as to the other types of Atomisers that suit the mod’s size (Asvape Cobra, Oumier White Bone Mini, Cthulhu Gaia, Bombertech Pindad).

Due to where the screen placement is, it will either suit a left hand finger firing position, or right handed thumb firing otherwise you hand will be covering the screen. Not that it matters all that much unless you are wanting to see battery life, resistance and wattage. The screen itself is very difficult to see in daylight, I find myself cupping my hand when changing wattage or checking battery life.

The buttons are plastic and + / - buttons rattle very slightly when I shake the mod. All of them have a good “click” feedback to them, and haven’t caused me any issues or got stuck the whole time. I feel that the fire button itself is oversized for the circuit board button underneath it. If I move around and try to engage the fire button pressing on the very edges, it doesn’t want to engage easily at times.

Still on the theme of the fire button here there seems to be a 0.5 second delay when firing. Not quite sure why this is needed as there is no menu to engage with, so I’m going to list this as a con.

The faux leather panels on the mod are decent enough although you might well notice that the top panel (above the fire button) has an indent from a mini screwdriver or something, at least mine did. I was able to push it back a little so it’s less noticeable though.

Finally the battery capacity is 2100mAh. I really wish this was 3000mAh. Much like their Fusion 2 it’s ok but lacks the longevity I get from the Solo 2 vape pen or the C-II released from Viva Kita’s sister company Vaptio. Charging from low voltage cut out took me 3 hours 10 minutes, although found it best to keep it topped up between breaks is the best way to go since the final bar will see a significant drop off in performance.

The Tank

The tank itself has the same coating as mod, whilst still pretty good, they could have done a neater job under the edges on the tank, just some slight over run in places, but I’m just nit picking here.

The tank breaks down into 6 parts. I should warn you here the glass does not come away from base, at least I was not able to get it to budge. You will likely break it as was the case with me. Viva Kita sent me a replacement as I managed to break it before I even used it. I’m going to list this as a con, both because there is a lack of a spare, it doesn’t mention it in the manual, plus it also makes cleaning that much more difficult.

This is the same drip tip style as that found on the Vaptio C-II tank which is also used on the Asipre Cleito. Have to say I like the metal on here suits it nicely, in fact the whole kit in white looks great, just like something a storm trooper would carry which satisfies my geek out Sci-Fi streak.

My favourite feature on the tank is the juice flow control (JFC). It closes as I unscrew the top cap, and opens when I close it back up. It work works much like the Oumier White Bone Mini and C-II tank in this regard. You don’t need to wrench it shut, it doesn’t need it, otherwise you miss out on being able twist the top cap to open and close the JFC when in use, which is really handy for travelling.

The biggest pill to swallow on this tank is the 2ml capacity, be prepared to fill this often! The coils are awesome but they do drink the juice rapidly, to be honest id have preferred a 4ml tank on here like the C-2 but thanks to TPD laws we have to suck it up (don’t get me started on this).

The tank section doesn’t have any sort of metal refill assembly holding the glass in place when unscrewing the top cap. Inside the glass tank there is a gasket. Its purpose is keeping the juice back as you fill and to keep it leak free when turning the tank upside down (even with the top cap off) which proves it’s actually functional. If you’re not a fan don’t worry you can remove this and it will still be sealed.

I found a needle nose or a PET dropper bottle was the best way to refill this, both of which move the gasket out of the way. Should you remove the gasket juice dumping in the tank is no issue. I actually like the gasket though as it ensures that there is no messy refills or juice accidently shooting down the chimney.

How’s the Vape

The vape is bloody marvellous, nice fairly restricted draw suits me perfectly half open. In terms of starter kits the C-2 from Vaptio is my favourite at the time of writing this review, and the Move 60 is right up there with it close behind. They are essentially using the same tanks, it’s just this one is smaller and TPD compliant. They even use exactly the same coils, so what isn’t there to like.

I get a really nice hit at 45w, the coils do go all the way to 60W with no issues. The vapour production is great as is the flavour, so much so I haven’t once wanted to run my other atomisers on here (other than testing). This is a direct lung (DL) non stealth device only something to bear in mind if you are looking to come off the stinkies and are used to the two stage mouth to lung (MTL) inhale, it might be overwhelming for some. I personally went straight for DL when I gave up smoking I couldn’t ever get a satisfying hit from MTL vaping.

The coils Viva Kita use are transferable between a number of their product range and I’ve always liked them, they tend to last me 2 weeks on average on the Move 60 kit. I find them to be fresh tasting bringing through the sweet, bold notes in my flavours really well.

Things I feel could be improved
  • Lack of spare glass and/or vape band
  • Could not break down the tank fully
  • Reduce button rattle and fire button size.
  • 0.5 second delay when firing.
  • Hard to see the LED lights in Daylight
  • Would have preferred a 3000mAh battery
  • 2ml capacity too small for how quickly this drinks (subjective)

Things I feel it does well
  • Very comfortable to hold
  • Decent paint finish
  • Simple controls for new vapers.
  • Draw is great if you like a fairly restricted lung hit
  • Top cap doesn’t get hot
  • Juice flow control on the C-II tank
  • Very good flavour and decent vapour
  • Silicone gasket does stop messy refills and leaking
  • Charge whilst you vape
  • Comfortable drip tip, though does require regular cleaning

Final Conclusion

Despite the fact I actually like this kit a lot, the improvements I highlighted are pretty important to me. If they were addressed by Viva Kita this would have probably been my favourite starter kit even over the C-2. Flavour and how it vapes are top notch there’s no denying that for a starter kit but I’m thinking package as a whole here. So I ask myself do I prefer this to the Vaptio C-2 (my favourite starter kit to date), the answer would be no probably not but it’s close second behind it and it’s more accessible to those in the UK.

Thanks very much for putting up with my ramblings, I hope I covered everything you wanted to know until next time KingPin!
