Teslacigs confidently entered the vape market several years ago, offering vapers interesting and original products, which had no analogues. Surely everyone has seen their legendary series of box mods in the style of steampunk, the devices of which are successfully sold even today. One of the most striking and memorable devices from this series is Tesla Nano 120W Steampunk, made in a specific case. Given the success of the Nano, Teslacigs decided to create a new device in the popular pipe-mod format of today – Punk 86W. It is safe to say that the device turned out quite interesting and logical, because the style of steampunk in a round device looks more than logical and adequate.
General Data
Teslacigs Punk 86W is a 86 watt tube mod that runs on a 18650 battery, is designed to be used in two modes and is made in a style of steampunk. Despite the fact that this is the format of the pipe mod, it is quite large and heavy, but for this style of design such a decision is quite logical. The device is notable for its simplicity of use and laconic functions. As in the fashion nano Teslacigs Punk 86W is available in four colors gun metal, steel, antique copper or brass, and each of the colors is distinctive and original, and it’s hard to say which one is the best.
Kit
Naturally, you should not expect something original in the kit, everything is simple, clear and logical, that’s what Teslacigs company likes to do with all its devices:
Punk 86W pipe mod;
USB cable” for charging;
User manual;
Warranty card.
Appearance and Design
As with many other Teslacigs devices in the Punk 86W many vapers who are not particularly bothered about the thermal control curves or prehit at 0.0001 watts, the main attention to the device attracts exactly the design. No matter how experienced and wizened a vaper is, no one will tell you that similar design solutions have other manufacturers.
Taking into consideration the fact that the style of steam-punk is quite actual nowadays, it is safe to say that Punk 86W 200% will find many of its fans. All the same gears, gears and incomprehensible levers are embossed on the tube, which also create a nice cool surface for your hand. Naturally, the ergonomics of the device is at a high level, as it is round in diameter about 30 mm (why exactly this diameter is a mystery) and the applied relief. To the seat of the atomizer the device narrows slightly to 28 mm, so you will not have any problems with the choice of atomizer, you can install almost everything.
The Teslacigs Punk 86W is made of brass and stainless steel, with the former being painted artificially aged. The installation of a traditional 18650 battery will not cause any questions at the bottom of the mod there is a convenient plug with notches, allowing you to grab it even with wet hands. Just below the seat there is a micro-USB connector for charging the battery, which is very convenient because the vaper gets more autonomy (if you remember Nano again, it has no USB connector at all).
Functionality and features of work
Expect some special features in Teslacigs Punk 86W is not worth it. There are only two functions: variwatt and bypass, but even this minimalism makes the device interesting. And both functions are logical and justified. 90% of vapers use their devices only in varivatt mode, without even suspecting about the curves or pre-hit. Well, bypass will allow you to use Punk in mechmod mode with protection.
If we talk about the chip, it appears to be proprietary from Teslacigs and quite simple. But at the same time it is able to work with resistance 0,1-3 ohms, which is enough for a mod with one battery. The device is equipped with a full set of protections, so you can not worry even a beginner.
At the bottom of the device there is a small display that shows the power, mode and battery level. The control buttons are placed near the display, but the fire button of steel is located at the top, and it repeats the diametrical curve, which is very convenient and practical.
Conclusions and impressions
Teslacigs Punk 86W is definitely an interesting vaporizer that many vapers will like because of its design style and ease of use. The manufacturer did not make it very functional, and there is no need for it, because how many percent of fans of delicious and fragrant vapor can say that they use their device to the fullest.
