Hi Vaping Underground members, In this review i take a look at the Velocity 21700 100W Full Kit from OXVA. The OXVA Velocity 21700 100W Kit was supplied for the purpose of this review by Tina from 3avape.
https://www.3avape.com/oxva-velocity-kit-100w.html
Introduction
OXVA was founded almost one year to the day ago and i am hard pressed to think of another manufacturer that has made so much of an impact in such a short period of time but as the founder is Justin Lai the ex head designer of Geekvape who designed many of their best products such as the Zeus and Aegis then maybe it should of come as no surprise!
The Velocity is the first of their products i have looked at and i received the full kit version, it's also available just with the 510 adaptor as a box mod. The Velocity introduces their new Unipro Coil heads but you also receive an empty pod for the Unicoil Coil Heads so some backwards compatibility which is a good thing!, i also received the Unipro RBA although that is a separate purchase.
The Velocity is a 21700 Box Mod with removable 510 adaptor which allows the use of pods. It features Smart, Power (regular variable wattage) and Variable Voltage modes and the display colour accents can be changed adding some customisation. Coming with different Leather or IML panels there is sure to be at least one option that appeals so let's give the Velocity a closer look!

Aesthetics and Ergonomics
The Velocity comes in sturdy cardboard box packaging with outer cardboard sleeve. The device comes with different leather or colourful IML panels, I received the Black Leather version which has Black leather panels either side. The options are Black Leather, Brown Leather, Carbon fiber, Rose Gold, Gold Ripple or Black Marble.
They do claim on their website that with the 510 connection installed it's the smallest single 21700 box mod but i have no idea what drugs the author of that claim was on because putting it next to the Dovpo Odin Mini the Velocity towers over the Odin and in general it's a large box shaped device! Although apart from curved sides it has no more ergonomic form features like curved spine etc it feels reasonably comfortable in the hand.
With the 510 adaptor installed it does look in everyway like a standard device and the small 510 plate is raised just an hair protecting the surface while giving no visible gaping, the 510 is both Gold plated and spring loaded but has a very stiff short throw! The device has a sturdy Zinc Alloy construction with panels either side, on mine these panels as mentioned are Black leather and we have "OXVA" embossed one side. The spine has printed branding towards the bottom and three vertical pill shaped airflow slots towards the top.
Moving to the face we have the same matching airflow slots towards the top followed underneath by a protruding rectangular fire button. Central we have the colour screen followed by two smaller rectangular navigational buttons lined up vertically, we have a type C USB at the bottom. Moving to the base and we have the hatch door with protruding grooves, venting and printed safety marks.
The device is solid but it needs pointing out when shaking the 510 adaptor has a lot of movement despite being a very secure fit!

The 510 Adaptor
Whether just buying as a mod or the full kit the 510 adaptor is already installed. It is secured by the same 4 strong magnets as we see on the base of the pods but also either side we have strong protruding tabs that fit into indentations on the inside of the bay, in fact it gives a reassuring loud click as these tabs secure in place. Despite fitting very securely meaning you need to use the supplied tool to remove disappointingly it has movement both sidewards and back and forth but this isn't noticed during use!
___________________________________________________________________
The Included Tool
Included is a tool which you use to remove the 510 adaptor and also prising your coil assembly free from the pod. One side of the tool has a flattened end which can be slid into the open airflow slot and underneath the coil and then just lift free. The other end has 510 threading which you screw into the adaptor and then pull while pushing sidewards to free the adapter, it's very secure!
___________________________________________________________________
The Pod
You receive one pod with a wide bore 510 drip tip and a 0.15ohm Unipro coil head pre-installed and a second pod without an installed drip tip or coil and of course with it being a standard 510 fitting you can fit an alternative drip tip if you prefer. The spare pod is for the Unicoils which came with previous products although before realising it wasn't the same pod as the one with a pre-installed coil (it looks the same) i actually built and installed the Unipro RBA into this pod and it fits fine and i have had zero leaking so scratching my head a bit? The pod is tinted but you can see the e-liquid inside and the top section protrudes outside the device so you don't need to remove the pod to check the level. The pod also has top-fill with a generous port but the drip tip can get in the way of larger bottles so you might need to remove just as you fill.
We have a silicone flap with "OXVA" and an arrow head embossed into the silicone showing where to lift. It lifts easily for a mess free fill and goes back into place to seal the port with no issues, the pod holds 5ml of liquid while of course the TPD pod holds 2ml.
Moving to the base of the pod we have a strong magnet to each corner and the central cylindrical opening for the pod assembly to be installed!

The Coil Head Assembly
The coil head assembly is completed by screwing the Unipro coil into the airflow base which also has the negative and central positive on it's base.
