Hi Vaping Underground members, In this review i take a look at the Obelisk 120 FC Mod from Geekvape. The GeekVape Obelisk 120 FC Mod was supplied free of charge for the purpose of this review by Sourcemore.
GeekVape Obelisk 120 FC Mod 120W 3700mAh Vape Mod
Introduction
Geekvape have been on the block for a long time but over the last 3 years have been known for their multiple Aegis devices and Zeus atomizers with most other products released under the Digiflavor brand.
Bearing that in mind it's nice to see a complete new range of devices that are not IP67 and don't bare the Aegis name, don't get me wrong quite rightfully the Aegis devices with their IP67 rating are popular it's just nice that they are now manufacturing an alternative range as i am sure most don't want every device they own to look like a tank going into battle!
The Obelisks keeps the familiar display and user interface but aesthetically it's an all new look and here the 120FC version that i am looking at offers 65W PD Fast Charging capabilities allowing the 3700mAh internal battery to be charged in just 15 minutes! We also have OTG mode which allows the device to become a power bank! The Obelisk 120FC also has all the usual modes, Power, TC-SS, TC-TCR, VPC (power curve) and Bypass.
The 120FC is available as just the device (what i received), in kit form and with or without the 65W PD Fast Charger which makes sense as some people might have an adaptor already with the correct specifications! Less of my waffle and let's crack on!

Aesthetics and Ergonomics
The Obelisk 120FC came in the usual Geekvape style of cardboard box packaging with outer cardboard sleeve with raised picture of the device in the chosen colour on the front and specs etc on the reverse. I received the Blue version, the options are Silver, Blue, Gunmetal or Black.
Either side we have a large rectangular panel which is made from 4 layers with the final top layer giving a mirrored look, it sounds similar to the IML process apart from on this i have noticed both fine scratches can appear and fingerprints, on the vertical towards the front at the top on each mirrored panel we have "geek vape" with a mirrored Silver finish!
Unlike on the Aegis the front panel is curved and instead of a light switch style fire button we have an horizontally positioned rectangular fire button which protrudes nicely and is both mushy and clicky. Below we have the screen followed by the horizontally positioned navigational rocker which again protrudes nicely and has the same mushy and clicky feel as i found with the fire button, finally below the rocker we have the Obelisk logo.
The spine is curved with spaced vertical corrugations and moving to the base we have safety stamps and branding. Moving up top we have Stainless Steel with a brushed finish rather than a plate and the threading is directly machined into the Stainless Steel top, the brushed finish will help hide any scratches caused by attaching atomizers, the 510m is Gold plated and Spring loaded.
The device is comfortable in the hand and with it's Aluminium construction is much lighter than i expected, build quality is good but i have got my suspicions the paint finish possibly will not stand up to much wear and tear, just a hunch it just reminds me a bit of a Smok paint job from a few years ago, I might be wrong and hopefully I am!

Display
The display is very bright and sharp as well as being very familiar if you have some of the Aegis devices that tend to use the same display and menu system. Everything is lined up vertically so up top we have the mode, then underneath the battery status bar followed by either wattage, temp or voltage depending which mode you are in.
In the lower section we first have resistance followed by amps, then voltage and finally the puff count which shows vape duration while firing!
_________________________________________________________________________
Operating The Device
The Obelisk 120FC is the usual 5 clicks of the fire button to turn on and 5 clicks to turn off, once on holding both + and - sides of the rocker at the same time locks the navigational rocker but the device will still fire. The brightness percentage of the display can also be adjusted by either pressing fire and left together to decrease or fire and right to increase!
3 clicks of the fire button highlights the mode which can then be changed by using the navigational rocker, the modes are Power, TC-SS, TC-TCR, VPC (power curve), Bypass and OTG.
When the mode can be changed via the navigational rocker a press of the fire button will take you to any item on the screen which can be altered in turn so for example when the screen is on power but still highlighted then a press of the fire button will highlight Puffs and pressing - will reset them, when TC-SS is highlighted for example it works the same way and you have options to resample and lock resistance. Also when a mode is highlighted pressing both sides of the navigational rocker now instead of locking changes the colour of the accents on the display, each press changes them to a new colour, the options are Orange, Yellow, Blue, Light Green or Purple!
When VPC (power curve) is highlighted each press of the fire button allows the next section of the curve to be altered using the navigational buttons and when finished holding fire for 2 seconds sets the curve!
On the normal working screens the wattage can be adjusted from 5w to 120w in 0.5w increments with single presses or 1w increments with an adjustment button held down, it scrolls quickly and round robins. Again in TC the temp round robins between Celsius and Fahrenheit with Celsius adjusting in 1 degree increments while Fahrenheit adjusts in 5 degree increments. The final mode is OTG which will be explained in the next section! That's it although the Obelisk has the fast charging capabilities and we find added to the menu system OTG mode it's identical to most Aegis devices in both look and operation!
_________________________________________________________________________
OTG Mode
OTG Mode essentially turns your device into a Power Bank so you can use it to charge other devices. Handy if you have plenty of charge on your device but something else you have on you is running low on charge, of course it will need a Type C USB connection port also!
So 3 clicks of the fire button to highlight mode and then press the right side of the rocker until you get to the OTG mode then select, plug in the cable between the device and what needs charging! When in OTG mode It charges other devices up to 2.4A max!
