Recently vape manufacturers do not particularly please vapers with new box-mods and tanks, as all paid special attention to the segment of POD-systems and submods. But if we look at the statistics, fans of traditional tanks, drip sticks and box-mods are not so little, because not every vaper is ready to give up the taste and bulk, and they can be fully obtained only on a fairly powerful device. Smok decided to correct this injustice and on the background of a new line of SCAR released not only two SCAR sub-mods, but also full-fledged kit Smok SCAR 18 Box Kit, in which you can find a new box-mod and a new tank. It is worth to say thank you to the developers happy and greatly diluted the dominance pod-mods.
General info
Smok SCAR 18 Box Kit starter kit that consists of tankomizer on vaporizers TFV9 Tank and box mod for two batteries, which is equipped with productive and functional IQ-X chipset. The design of the box mod is somewhat reminiscent of Aegis from GeekVape, but with a more pleasant and ergonomic design. The control is made thanks to the updated IQ-X chip, thanks to which the vaper will get good functionality, performance and stability. TFV9 Tank is a continuation of the legendary TFV series, but with some changes and new sabot vaporizers. Buy Smok SCAR 18 Box Kit is available in eight colors – Fluid 7-Color, Fluid Red, Fluid Blue, Fluid Gold, Fluid Black White, Red Stabilizing Wood, Green Stabilizing Wood, Black.
Accessories
It can not be said that the new kit is completed in a special way, rather, all is standard and banal, but after the purchase is enough to install the battery, pour the liquid and feel free to smoke. In a cardboard box the vaper waits:
Box mod SCAR-18 Mod;
Tankomizer TFV9 Tank;
Two 0.15ohm V9 Meshed Coil vaporizer (one pre-installed);
Replacement glass;
USB cable for charging and firmware updates;
User’s Manual.
Box mod SCAR-18 Mod
The fact that the company Smok decided to return to the segment of box-mods can not but rejoice, because vapers, frankly speaking, already missed the traditional devices. Naturally, it is impossible to say that SCAR-18 Mod is a revolutionary device, but the fact that it is an ordinary box mod, rather than a hybrid, is pleasing. In any case, the vaper will get a pretty good mod that will be a great replacement for the old devices.
Smok SCAR-18 Mod is made very well – it is a traditional rectangular device with rounded edges, so it sits perfectly in your hand. The device can hardly be called a miniature 54 * 30.6 * 88 mm, but it can safely install atomizers with a diameter up to 28 mm. It is decorated quite brightly and originally, as in addition to the metal it uses inserts imitating leather, resin and stabwood.
An important feature of the new box mod Smok SCAR-18 Mod is that the manufacturer has made it protected from water, dust and shock, so the body meets the IP67 standard.
Maximum power box mod 230 watts, and it is provided by two conventional batteries 18650, which are installed under the flip cover (how the manufacturer provides a reliable seal and whether it is at all is a question). If necessary, you can charge the batteries with a current of 1.3A through the connector micro-USB, located on the side surface and closed with a silicone plug.
Controled Smok SCAR-18 Mod interesting enough chipset IQ-X, which although not equipped with some non-standard features, but will allow you to use the device in Power / TC / Bypass modes and work with a resistance of 0.1 ohms.
In order to vaper was convenient to control the work boxmod, it is equipped with a small color display, which can find the standard set of information power, battery level, resistance, voltage, current, the number of puffs.
TFV9 Tank Tank
I’d like to say special thanks to the developers for the new Tank TFV9, which is a successor to the legendary TFV series (it is still considered exemplary among subomirical tanks). TFV9 Tank is made quite simply, but also very stylish and in the same corporate spirit.
Diameter of the tank is 28 mm, so it’s hard to call it a miniature tank.
Especially for this tank was developed 0.15ohm V9 Meshed Coil vaporizer on the mesh, so great taste and vaping is guaranteed.
The tank volume of 6,5 ml deserves special attention so the vaper doesn’t have to refill the liquid in every 5-7 puffs.
TFV9 Tank has a traditional bottom air blow, with the possibility to adjust it by rotating the ring located at the base of the tank.
Filling is quite usual for the tanks of this series the top cap is simply removed by a circular motion, opening access to a fairly large filling hole.
Conclusions and impressions
Despite the fact that there is nothing special in Smok SCAR 18 Box Kit, it can surely replace morally and physically outdated box mods and tanks. Vaper gets a productive starter kit with a good reliable box mod and tank, which is able to please with excellent taste and bulk.
