Full disclosure:
Let’s get all the disclosures out of the way. This mod was sent to me specifically for the purposes of this review. This will not in any way, shape, or form cause me to give this mod a favorable review or change my opinion in any way.
First Impression Out Of The Box:
Slide the box out of its sleeve and it opens like a book. On one side is the mod and on the other side is the accessories. This is a skinny little mod. Very smooth texture to it. Tiny little buttons. Nice little tank as well. Really tall for its size.
What's In The Box:
In the Vaporesso Tarot Mini Starter Kit you will get a Tarot Mini, a Vecco sub ohm tank with an Eco coil pre installed, an extra Eco coil, spare tank glass, and a USB charging cable. All the contents are packed nice and tight with the mod sitting on one side and the rest of the contents in a separate section on the other side of the box. There is also a user manual for the tank and mod as well as a warranty and a few safety and warning cards.
From Top To Bottom:
The Tank:
The Vecco tank is a nice little sub ohm tank. This tank measures 22mm by 48mm so it is a perfect fit for the Tarot Mini. This little 2ml tank has really good flavor for a top air flow only tank. The two airflow slots are right below the drip tip and they are adjustable. The coils are small and easy to replace. They have no threading and are just dropped into place. The Vecco also has a massive oring on the bottom of the tank that I am sure contributes greatly to its leak proof design.
The Vecco takes the EUC family of coils. They are made with the idea of using as little metal as possible in the chassis of the coil. This makes for a coil that is easier to replace and saves the consumer money because the coil does not have the built in cost of a huge metal sleeve. The drop in style of coil this tank uses makes switching coils even in the middle of a tank easy and clean.
These are the coils and their wattages that are available for the Vecco tank as of this writing. The coils included in the kit are the ceramic .5 ohm SS 316 and the .4 ohm traditional Clapton.
All and all this is a really solid little tank that matches really well with this mod. It’s no cloud monster but it will give you a nice, flavorful, satisfying vape.
The Mod:
The Tarot Mini measures 98mm by 38mm by 22.5mm. The 510 pin is very solid and definitely what I have come to expect from Vaporesso products. It has a nice firm spring to it as well as four cut outs for atomizers that still get their air from the bottom. Threading on the 510 is nice and smooth. So far every atomizer I have used on it sits nice and flush. It will take a 22mm atomizer with no overhang.
The body of the mod feels hard and smooth. It is made out of Zinc and Aluminium alloy as well as carbon fiber. Mine has the carbon fiber look side panel that almost feels like they are under glass. Branding on the Mini is elegant and subdued. There is battery venting present on the bottom of the mod. On its two widest sides there is branding on one side. On the same side of the branding there is a charge/update port located inside the mod behind the battery cover. I’m not to sure how I feel about this. I understand putting it inside protects it and keeps it clean but I find it annoying that I have to pop the battery cover off in a pinch if I need to charge the mod. I’m honestly not sure if I should list it as a pro or con.
That brings us to the battery door. It’s pretty seamless and really well done. There is a little tab at the base of the cover that allows the user to get their fingernail in there and open the door. The door comes off completely and is held in place by two strong magnets that attach to two recessed magnets. So not only does the door have magnets but the magnets themselves act as a pin so the door has no movement. Pretty ingenious if you ask me. The battery door stays in place and there is no rattle at all.
The battery sled is very nicely done. It has all the appropriate markings but they are black on black and sometimes you have to struggle to see them. I wish companies would start using clearer markings for battery orientation. The battery goes in positive side up and the there is a gold plated spring loaded contact on the positive side. There is also some board venting present right next to the battery. There is no battery ribbon but it's really not needed as the battery comes out fairly easily.
The screen is a .91’ OLED display that is vivid and bright. I can see the screen in most light conditions including direct sunlight. The screen displays your resistance, voltage, wattage/temperature and mode. Basically everything a vaper needs to know about how their mod or tank is behaving.
The buttons are small but let's face it this is a small mod so they are in proportion to the rest of the mod. The firing button is shaped like a tiny hexagon. The mode and +/- buttons are shaped like tiny hexagons as well. All of the buttons are responsive and clicky. There is no button rattle at all on this mod.
The Look, Feel, and General Aesthetics Of The Mod:
I love the look and feel of this mod. It’s a little powerhouse that is perfect for a pocket or purse. The whole setup is just small and gorgeous. I use the subway a lot and this has become my go to little subway mod. Small enough to keep in a front jacket pocket or even in a front jeans pocket. It just feels nice in your hand. It is a very light mod yet it does not feel like a cheap mod at all. It feels exactly like a taller version of the Vaporesso Nano and that’s a good thing. I actually like this much better than the Nano because I can swap out the battery at will.
I do not like the difference in height between this mod and the Nano. This mod is just too tall and skinny. It gets knocked over very easily especially with a tall tank. Even if you run it with the stock Vecco I would highly recommend you use a vape band on that tank or any other tank you use with this mod. In all honesty they should have not beveled out the base of this mod. It should have been squared off to give it more stability when you put it down. Since they went with this type of base Vaporesso should have included a vape band at the very least.
