Choder's review of the Vaporesso Orca Solo Pen Kit
This kit was sent to me by Vaporesso as part of the Power User Program, an introductory product release user-feedback invitation. Any feedback provided will be used for future Vaporesso R&D.
My first impressions of the unit was that it was compact and light weight. I ended up with a blue unit, which the site identifies as purple. The color of the unit is also identified on the front of the packaging as shown from the bar color at the bottom.
The entire line up of colors available are Black, Silver, Rainbow, Purple (Blue), Rose Gold (Pink), Metallic Grey (Gun Metal), and Mint Green.
In my box the following were included:
NOTE: Since I received a sample set, there were no spare parts included, but Vaporesso has confirmed that the retail version should contain some extra parts.
As mentioned this unit is small, compared to the Vaporesso Revenger X with an Asmodus Zesthia RTA tank, I was able to compare it to my daily carry. The Orca is just under 5 inches long and has a diameter of less than ¾ of an inch. The weight difference was also very much lighter in fact sometimes I don’t even remember it being in my pocket.
The components of the unit inclueds the drip tip, top sleeve, glass tube, OC coil and the bottom battery base. The coil is first threaded into the battery base then the glass tube is slipped into a 0.5 cm stub from the battery base. Finally, the metal caged sleeve with drip tip is thread onto the other end of the OC coil. At first, this seemed to be a simple setup but two issues came up.
The diameter of the underside of the chimney sleeve restricts most of the air flow so a different wider drip tip wouldn’t do much. This seems like it’s almost the same area as the AFC on the side of the device.
