Hi Vaping Underground members, In this review i take a look at the Super Cape Kit from Vaptio. The Super Cape Kit was supplied for the purpose of this review by Bear from Vaptio.

Introduction
Vaptio are back with their fourth mod in the Super Hero range and the Super Cape features the same user interface as both the Capt'n and Super Bat Mods with the same 220W maximum wattage. The latest of the hero mods has back LED's with customisation, magazine style battery compartment and it goes back to employing a side fire bar. Paired with the Paragon sub-ohm tank which comes supplied with mesh coils it's certainly worth a look!

Aesthetics and Ergonomics
The Super Cape kit comes in the usual Vaptio cardboard packaging with sleeve which takes away any suspicions that the Super Hero devices are aimed at youngsters, they are not but adults with a youthful sense of fun. On opening i was met by a large dual battery device but once handling became very aware of the curves and fire bar making it a very comfortable device to both hold and fire. I received the Red Blue version, it's also available in Red Yellow and Black, while both the Red Blue and Red Yellow versions come with Carbon fiber effect side panels the Black version comes with side panels which have felon artwork. The Super Cape is made using In Mould Labelling (IML) a kind of moulded printing technique and has a gradient spray paint finish. The front of the device at the top has a section that comes down like a "V" and the bottom of this "V" houses the "V" shaped navigational rocker, above this is a large triangular button which is the battery magazine release mechanism. Below the navigational rocker we have a Black translucent panel which houses the large colour screen followed by the micro USB port. The back of the device has a line of White translucent cutouts and above a triangular translucent section all of which is to allow LED lights to shine through while adding aesthetic effect even when turned off. The side panels on mine are Carbon Fiber effect and one is the fire bar while the other is fixed and has "SUPER CAPE" printed. The base of the device has printed safety stamps and branding as well as venting, moving to the top we have a 510 plate on a raised platform with Gold plated, spring loaded 510. The Super Cape as usual for a Vaptio device is very well made and seems very durable.

Paragon Overview
The Paragon tank is a nice looking and very well machined sub-ohm tank that with the Bubble glass (standard version) as an impressive 8ml capacity, the EU version of course comes fitted with a 2ml glass and the kit also includes a 4ml straight glass. The Paragon has dual cyclops with stopper and gives a ton of air, you get 2 coils included which are a pre-installed 0.2ohm mesh coil and a 0.15ohm strip coil. The mesh coil is rated between 40w and 90w with a best between 60w and 80w, the strip coil is rated between 40w and 100w with a best between 80w and 90w. I used the mesh coil while using the Paragon on the Super Cape as i just am loving the sub-ohm mesh coils that are coming out with tanks of late, i have used strip coils a few times and i find they match the mesh for flavour but the vape is too warm for me. I can get the same flavour, but cooler vape at 20w lower with a mesh coil compared to strip coils (at least that has been my experience). The Paragon is top-fill via the top-cap unscrewing from the tank (very good threading), once off 2 large filling ports are revealed. The filling ports have a silicone membrane that keeps the tank sealed so to fill you have to push the nozzle of your bottle past the membrane, displacing it, once filled and you have removed your nozzle the membrane reseals the tank. The membrane doesn't just add an extra seal but means the inside of the tank is barely exposed to the air during filling helping with the vacuum and preventing the leaking you can get after filling. The only con for me with the Paragon is that it comes with a proprietary drip tip so you have to use the one that comes with the tank, luckily it is comfortable so not a major issue.

Installing The Batteries
The Super Cape runs off dual 18650 batteries and are fitted magazine style into the device. On the front of the Super Cape towards the top their is a large triangular button which when pressed releases the battery magazine that slides out the bottom of the device. Inside the 2 tubes of the magazine orientation is clearly marked so your 2 batteries just need placing into the magazine following the correct orientation. Then simply slide the battery magazine back into the device until it clicks secure, their is no battery rattle whatsoever although using the hand slight sidewards movement of the protruding bottom of the magazine which i didn't find an issue, it's very slight. Very impressed how this system has been implemented and how smoothly it works with my only concern being durability so i drove myself bored senseless by spending an entire hour ejecting and securing the magazine. After an hour of approx 400 ejects the system is still working as new so very satisfied about the durability.
