Hi All, Anthony Vapes back here with my review of the Smoant Pasito Pod Kit, please see the bottom for disclaimers and links. Note this is not marked as a sample version.
Introduction:
The Smoant Pasito Pod kit is the latest Pod Kit from popular vape manufacturer Smoant. They are most popular for making a lot of good mods like the naboo most recently but also the charon mini, charon TS, charon 218, battlestar and a few others. Plus the battlestar squonk mod. Their pod offerings so far have been disappointing, but pasito means small step so let's hope that means it’s a step in the right direction. The pacito is a simple slim rectangle style AIO Pod with refillable pods and a built in 1100mah battery and button press to fire. It’s available in 4 colors Red, Black, Gunmetal, and Blue. Elementvape has them in stock in the USA all colors for 34.95. The going prices I see are around 10 bucks for a replacement pod (reusable) and around 11-12 bucks for a 3 pack of coils or for 1 RBA head.

The Pasito is thin rectangle style AIO (all in one) Pod kit, meaning there isn’t a separate mod or tank that can be used with anything else. It does have replaceable pods so you can carry spares, but those are sold separately and the coils are replaceable and you can reuse the pod like a Breeze 2 or Nord. Design wise it’s very similar to Lost Vape Orion Go. It’s a good size all things considered. There is also adjustable air which is a cool option to have via a plastic slider on top of the pod. Worth mentioning though is it’s best to pointer finger fire as if you thumb fire and have a beard it can interfere with the airflow since it’s on top of the pod. Not a big deal but worth the mention. It has an above average capacity of 3ml (also a 2ml EU version for TPD compliant). The battery is listed at 1100mah and it’s an adjustable output device with 5 power settings (10w, 13w, 16w, 20w, 25w). It features built in USB charging (USB C Type) and they list a charge rate of 1A max. I tested this 3 times with an inline USB meter and for the charge rate it charges at 1A max so excellent rating and good enough for the battery size. It charges full in about 1 hour and 20 minutes. Battery size wise i got 1018-1023mah so no complaints there. Pretty damn good ratings on smoant’s part for sure. It does have passthrough vaping as well like most (pauses charging) so u can hit it while it’s charging. The drip tip is removable and replaceable but proprietary. A 510 would have been nice but not a big deal since most pods you can’t remove the tip anyway. It’s nice to remove for cleaning. The included one is a resin tip that matches the panels.
The Smoant Pasito is very nicely built, but kind of lightweight as well. Paint wise i have the Gunmetal which is a matte-greyish body with CPR panels on both sides that has a glossy finish. Really nice panels and I think the device looks excellent and shows no signs of wearing either. No complaints or wearing on the paint. The pods attach to the battery via a magnet and are easy to get in and out and fit really well so good job there and fit it nicely with no wiggle or play. To remove the pod just pull it out. To replace the coils they just pop in and out of the bottom of the pod and are held in place by o-rings, with 1 small difference from most pods as it comes with a coil adapter the coil head needs to be screwed into 1st and the adapter is what o-rings into the pod. The filling is pretty basic. You have to unscrew where the drip tip is and then fill around the top of the coil. Very easy to fill, and the threading is nice, but I wouldn’t have minded a slide back fill hole like the trinity alpha but that’s just being nitpicky.
Usage is pretty easy. It has 2 buttons a fire button on the top and a mode button on the bottom. Click fire 5 times to turn on or off. You can tap the fire button to see the battery charge as well. The mode button tap once to see what mode you are i which are labeled by 5 LEDs on the panel section which are all white dots. When it’s lit up tap mode again to go to the next mode and when it’s on the one you want, wait until the light goes out and it locks in that mode. The options are 1 dot (10 watts), 2 dots (13 watts), 3 dots (16 watts), 4 dots (20 watts), and 5 dots (25 watts). The battery LED is the same set of dots and is 20% per dot so 81-100% is 5 dots lit, 61-80% is 4 dots lit, etc etc. Very nice to have 5 steps evenly spaced out. The pod is fully exposed which is nice, however, Like all pods is tinted super dark. I wish they would have made it clear or hopefully sell a clear pod option in the future which I'd be happy to buy. IDK why people like or make tinted pods at all. Makes no sense.
