Review Disclaimer
I review products for what they are with no account of where it comes from or who makes it. The test results are the results for what is in my hand. Due to possible QC difference your experience may vary. There is no way for myself or anyone to predict if a device will last 6 months, 1 year, 5 years etc. Any manufactured item from cars to phones to computers to mods have a possibility of arriving DOA or having a small percent failure rate. There is no way to predict this or quantify this. That’s why warranties and lemon laws exist. I can only review what I have in my hand for better or for worse. Contrary to popular belief, there is no special review samples of higher quality. Most of the time personally i get retail versions, the few times i’ve gotten early releases they are usually worse than the final retail version.
Reviewer Disclaimer
I decided to add this disclaimer in as i feel it’s important for people to know their source of the review. I’ve been vaping since late 2011. I’ve vaped all the styles from MTL to RLH to DTL. tanks, RTAs, RDAs, you name it. I do prefer the DTL and RLH style over MTL personally. My main focus from an atomizer is flavor. For mods i’ve used mechs and regulated mods. I’m an avid temp control vaper but enjoy power mode as well and the occasion mech usage for nostalgia. I’ve been doing reviews since late 2016. As of Jan 2018 I’ve done over 100 written reviews and done over 150 video reviews on my channel, Although i’ve taken a break from videos in the past few months to focus on written reviews.
I spend a lot of time helping vapers on forums as well and try to answer all the questions and comments on my reviews. I’m not an “out of the box” reviewer. I do my best to be thorough at all times. All mods get tested with an oscilloscope and stress tested. At times if needed i’ll disassemble them as well. Rebuildables get multiple builds in them. Tanks i use all coils until the die or a minimum of 2 weeks if they don’t die sooner. I do this for the community to help people find good products and avoid bad ones. In my opinion a reviewer works for the community and nobody else. It’s our job to inform vapers of issues and not be advertisers as well as provide constructive criticism from a place of knowledge back to companies with these reviews so they can improve and make better products in the future.

Introduction:
The Kado stealth pod is a new pod system from a new manufacturer in vaping, Kado. The product was sent to me from DSvaping which is a large distributor in vaping who also distributes the Kaos mods. The Kado Stealth is the first device from Kado and it’s meant to be a small portable pod system for MTL vaping with refillable pods. It’s available in 5 colors although they are all mostly black there is a color strip on the front. Those colors are gold, red, green, blue, and gunmetal.

Kit Rundown
The Kado Stealth Is a Pod style AIO (all in one) kit, meaning there isn’t a separate mod or tank that can be used with anything else. It’s a miniature one at that (a little smaller than a credit card) and only a few mm thick. it’s features top airflow that has a nice MTL vape not super tight but not loose either. It has a good capacity of 2ml and barely uses much juice at all. The battery is listed at 450 mah and the life thanks to the 8 watts power output lasts quite long. Also the 1st hit and the last hit before needing a charge is the same. No weaker hits as the battery dies. I’ll explain that a little later in the review in the coil section. It features built in charging but they don’t list the rate. Still it charges pretty fast. I didn't time it but charging from a laptop USB it seemed around 1-2 hours to charge. There is no Passthrough vaping however. Also i felt like due to the shape the mouthpiece could have been on the pointy side. Not sure why I felt that way but I did. The first day using it i found myself subconsciously putting the wrong side to my mouth. But after that i adjusted well and out of habit did it correctly.
It has 1 blue LED Light on it. It’s hidden under the tinted plastic below the color stripe. It’s on when the pod is in use and when the pod is dead it’ll blink when you try to vape on it. It also stays on while charging and turns off when the pod is fully charged. There is no battery indicator though and since the vape doesn't get weaker it can just “die on you” without warning. Filling the pod is very easy it just pops out easy and there is a rubber plug to take out and fill. Use a fine point bottle to fill it. It also has an air out hole which is nice so no worries about that. Filling is very easy. The pod itself is tinted which can make juice level had to see. Pretty much every pod does this and i don’t know why they don’t opt for a clear tank. Also to check you juice level you need to remove the pod. I wish they would have cut a “sight glass” into the body so you can see the juice level. Usage is very easy, there are no buttons or anything. No on or off. All you do is inhale to activate and it’s worked for me every time no misfires. Overall a very easy to use and nice little vape pod
