Last year VAPORESSO Co. have launched some interesting device of «Revenger» series, but I`d had no possibility of review any ot them, but now, thanks to the company`s manager, I have bright and really interesting device – VAPORESSO Revenger Kit, and now would like to tell you about it.

VAPORESSO SWAG Kit came to me in a long box, on the sides of which there is too much info about box mod, chip and atomizer.
The set is standard and includes the most important things, which will help to start using it.

SWAG box mod is of a high-quality and compact sizes device, which has a really good appearance and some attractive colors.
Do you agree, that vaping isn`t only for 150W lovers, but for smart people, who prefer the golden middle? If so, look at it!

On the face side there is a small black`n`white display with a low brightness, and also there are «Fn» и «Fire» buttons.
The display contains such indices as wattage, temperature, mode name, battery indicator, user preference (HIGH, SOFT, NORM – for VW; Ni, Ti, SS – for TC; M1, M2 – for TCR), resistance, voltage , puff counter ant their timer, curves of wattage or temperature. Of course, they depends on chosen mode.

On the right side you can see decorating bright insert and small and not convenient navigation rocket: it`s difficult to push it, when hold on the device in hand.

On the left side there is micro USB port, which supports 2A current.

On the top by the edge manufacturer`s put the company`s name «VAPORESSO» and higher – the spring-loaded 510 centered connector, which can take in atomizer up to 23 mm in diameter and the cover of battery compartment.
Firstly, when I saw it, I thought, that my lips would have touched it, but I had mistaken, and this is good, that designers`ve counted the dimension between it and atomizer platform.

On the bottom there are some venting holes.

PUFF COUNTER – this branch will help to reset the counter or return to the main settings menu;

DSC_0947.jpg

EXIT – return to main screen


Now I would like to speak about how to change modes from the main screen.
Really, I don`t know, why manufacturer`ve made it in such a way: it would be easier, if the`d put these ability into settings tree, where you can set all the needed parameters. But we have the shirt versions of VW and VT modes in the main menu, where we can set the user preference of VW (HIGH, NORM, SOFT) and the possibility of set the wattage for TC modes.

For to change the mode, when you are on main screen – you need to make a long press on «Fn» button.
Have done? Ok! Now, let`s set it more accurately.
Press the «Fn» button for 3 times and you will see the VW – CCW branch (for VW mode), where we can set the curve of wattage or stay in VW mode.

Press the «Fn» button for 3 times and you will see the VT – CCT – TCR branch (for VT mode), where we can set the curve of temperature, stay in TC mode or set TCR value.

Strange and difficult for the first time, do you agree? I think so.. You`ll need some time to get used to it.


Of course, the chip shows us some important messages about mistakes in device working process or when we have a new atomizer or troubles with it.

VAPORESSO NRG SE Tank, matched to box mod, has compact sizes, can contain 3,5 or 2 ml of e-juice (depends on version) and is of a high quality and assembly.
The appearance doesn`t leave an enthusiastic impression: the design is strict and ascetic. There are no any notches, and this is bad too, `cause the service and control of airflow become tougher. Only 2 bright o-rings mix such a classic style.

DSC_0885.jpg

VAPORESSO NRG SE Tank parameters:
Height: 48 mm;
Diameter: 22 mm;
Capacity: 3,5 ml or 2 ml (TPD);
Color: Black, Silver​

VAPORESSO NRG Tank consists of 5 parts: of base, replacement coil head, glass tube, top cap with shaft and drip tip.

The base has the bottom airflow through 2 holes. The control ring has a stoppe and tough stroke, because the notches are not provided for the convenience of maintenance: the fingers slide over the polished body of the base. Inside you can see the thread for to fix coil heads and outside perimeter has a fat o-ring for a middle-width Pyrex-glass tube.

Replacement coil heads GT1 and GT CCELL has 0,15 and 0,4 Ohm resistance, but are different to each other in the way of number of coils, the wattage corridor (40-80W and 15-40W) and coil material (Kanthal and Ceramic).
As for the flavor, I like the ceramic version more, but the second version is pretty well too. Both of them can produce large clouds and satisfy you with their stable work, but you need to check the level of e-juice, `cause can fell the burnt if the coil head won`t be saturated enough.

DSC_0908.jpg

Top cap is monolithic to a shaft and filling window. It`s of a «slider» type, but is a little different: for to open/close it – you need to move the cover clockwise or counterclockwise. Good decision, but not really convenient on practice, because of a REALLY tough stroke… Oh..You`ll have to make an effort).

The drip tip`s made of Delrin and has a conic to the top form. It works good, without getting hot and doesn`t jump thanks to fixing o-rings.

I like, when devices are functional and autonomic, but compact. VAPORESSO SWAG – is such a representative among some of them, the device which you can use every day, but: the menu navigation, the navigation rocket - aren`t really convenient, and 80W could be a little higher (for example – 100W). Well, I can`t say, that wattage is a critical moment, but I think, on what level it could have been, and that a higher strip could attract more vapers.
At the end, my total opinion is, that SWAG is a qualitative box mod without backlashes and misfires in work, which will suite people, who vape on 20-60W.
As for NRG SE – I have no any critical comments too, except the parts have no notches for easier service. But speaking about flavor and vapor – they`re pretty good (taste ceramic coil, you`ll be satisfied)
Different retailers ask for SWAG kit about 45$, and looking at current course, I think, the price isn`t very high between other less interesting devices. If you like the box mod – you can buy it separately for 27$, and the atomizer (which is not really stylish) – costs about 17$.

You can buy VAPORESSO SWAG Kit here.

Thanks for review. I've been eyeing this up to use with my MTL attys for something more compact when I'm outside
