Good morning to another day of fighting against analog cigarettes! Today, thanks to the equipment provided to me by @Sourcemore, I will present a short but concise review of the "entry level" POD from Vaporesso which is the POD Veco Go.
I will not discuss the box, it is the poorest version I have had so far, apart from the device, of course, there is a cardboard box, an eggshell and paper. Spare heater, charger and cable are missing, no extras. To keep costs as low as possible.
The device itself is directed rather to people who are just entering the world of EIN, which is why it is a POD that is painfully simple and maintenance-free. It is close to the disposables available at gas stations. The housing is made of amelinium and nicely colored, it does not have any button or airflow control. Only the draw system and the LED at the bottom of the device informing about the battery status. It differs from the disposable cartridge by a replaceable cartridge and a USB-C port at the bottom of the device.
I received a 0.6 ohm coil in the kit, I would like to test 0.8 ohms, but they are not available yet. Interestingly, the manufacturer placed on the box the recommended nicotine and salt concentrations appropriate for a given coil and the recommended PG/VG proportions. For testing, I used my own mix that falls within this range. The cartridge itself has a satisfactory capacity of 5ml, so there is no problem with frequent refilling. Topping up the liquid is done from the bottom of the cartridge, after removing the plug. So it only accepts Gorilla type bottles.
Now a little about vaping itself. The coil tastes very good, I have nothing to complain about. The fruity liquid tastes as expected, but it does not knock you to your knees, I know better PODs in this respect. The most important thing is that the taste is there and you don't feel any additions from the heater or flat taste. This is not some cheap, poor heater, but solid mid-range equipment. Unfortunately, the air passage is not adjustable and in this heater it is quite loose. In my opinion, it's RDTL more than loose MTL.
Now it's time for some yellow. I am not able to compare another coil or another copy to the one I have, but mine sometimes splashes liquid on my mouth. Rarely, but still. Besides, I emphasize, it seems to me that the design of the cartridge causes the liquid to collect on the edge of the mouthpiece, and when you pull the cloud, it is still hot and burns your mouth. If I push the mouthpiece a little farther on my lip so that the tip edge does not touch my lips, there is no problem. Also when I pull straight into the lungs it seems to be better. In my opinion, it misses the point, because firstly, beginners rather use MTL, secondly, the recommended liquids (6-12mg freebase and 20-30mg Salt) are rather not used in DTL ... Unfortunately, I don't have another heater to compare whether it is only the fault of the faulty heater, that leaks more liquid than it should, or is it a manufacturing defect. If I manage to order 0.8 ohms, I promise to update this thread.
All in all, a POD perfect for the lazy or beginner. A large battery, a capacious cartridge and the lack of any buttons make this device idiot-proof and very comfortable. In addition, my wife notes as an important aspect that you can vape while charging, which, for example, is not possible with VooPoo PODs. This time I will not give a rating because I can not confirm or deny whether the mouthpiece is a problem or maybe "this guy is like that". I would gladly give a high rating, because as I mentioned, it is a very interesting model that caught the attention of my other half for many reasons mentioned above.
Regards and thank you.
