INTRODUCTION
Hello everyone and welcome to another review. This is Pizza Dave and today I will be going over the Target PM80 by Vaporesso. This is another one of those pod mods hitting the market, where it essentially offers a tank like vape experience but with the convenience of a pod. I don’t really like the pod mod terminology, so I am just going to call this an AIO. The PM80 offers up 80 of max power, has a built in 2000mah battery, and has a snazzy looking display, all packed into a compact device. Let’s get right to it eh?
DISCLAIMER: This device was sent to my by Vaporesso for review.

FIRST IMPRESSIONS
Gorgeous. Yeah, this thing looks really nice. It is compact as heck, but has a lot of stylish accents within. Mine is the green color, and the back has a nice looking swirl of green, purple, and pink printed on a vinyl decal. The body is a glossy gunmetal color, which also looks very nice in my opinion. On of the biggest standouts that I found upon first power up is a great looking screen. It is clear, vibrant, and has tons of information on it, with one of the most notable being a wattage recommendation that pops up when a pod is installed. I could not wait to fill it up and start using this device.

OPERATION

Very simple to use and has plenty of nice features for what the device is.

USEAGE
Alright, so we know how to get around the menu, so let’s start using the thing. FIrst off, coils are inserted with a push/pull action and held in place with o-rings on the coil. To refill the pod, you pop it out of the top, as it is held firmly in place with two large magnets. Then grab on to the rubber plug tab and open. The fill port isn’t massive but I had no issues filling this with all of my standard plastic bottles. Stick the plug back in and wait 15 minutes before you vape it.
I started out with the .3-ohm coil first and stuck some 6mg liquid inside. I ran it at 35-40w and it worked pretty dang good. Flavor was on point, but it was a lot more airy than I thought it would be. WIth fixed airflow, I was stuck with it and vaped it throughout a work day, but barely. The 2000mah battery got me through, right up until the ride home and it was low. The next day, I went to fill it up after a charge and found a massive pool of e-liquid in the base. It was not enough to leak everywhere, but was quite concerning. I wiped it out and filled up the other pod with the .2-ohm coil. This time I went for a 3mg liquid, knowing I would be running it at a higher wattage (I ran at 55w). Good call, as this vaped like a typical mid-range sub-ohm tank. Flavor was on point, and the air flow was airy again. I didn’t mind this airflow with the higher wattage coil, but it would still have been nice to adjust it down a little. I got about half way through my day and the pod was about empty and the battery was at 39%. I found that it seemed to sit at 39% forever, until it died mid afternoon and then showed it was at 15% at rest. I was able to charge it up off my computer and vape it through my work day, but I hated having to charge. I left it sit for 2 days because I forgot to charge it for day 3 of testing. Went back to it, and this had pissed liquid all down the side of the device out the air flow. The pod was completely drained and it made a pool of liquid in my vape cabinet. NEAT! I filled it up anyway and wiped it out and gave it another go for a day. Again, was empty around noon and battery was also recharged at noon to get through the day. My experience was not that great to say the least.
