REVIEW BY PEACHES ATKINSON Specs: Internal Nicoplex technology 350 mah battery 10 watts 3.7 V Colors : Gold, Grey and Red Micro USB cable (gold - approx charge half an hour) Sealed box KODDO POD BY LIPS Pros : - Very portable - Great flavours - Fast charging time The whole pod idea is great, it reduces the possibility of leakages and is very easy to operate, the pods just slip on or off. The pods I received contain a small amount of 20mg/ml nicotine, and despite this being a rather hefty strength, the throat hit is very smooth. The liquid inside the pods are 50:50 VG:PG. The fact that these are relatively strong in nicotine, means that they are intended for people who wish to quit or cut down their cigarette consumption. The flavour pods that are available for this device come in a variety of different tastes, all of which are very well crafted. DESIGN BUILD QUALITY USABLILITY This device is carefully crafted in France, for beginners or those who prefer a higher nicotine set up. It is small and lightweight, perfect in terms of portability, whilst still packing a rather decent punch and it is ideal for travelling or in the car, due to its compact nature. This device utilises a pod system, so you cannot add your own juice. Having said that, there will be a wide range of French manufactured flavours that would suit any flavour preference. In terms of style and ergonomics, this device comes in three colour variants, red, gold and grey, and has a very sleek finish that does not chip or get damaged easily. It is small in size, and visually very simple. It features an indicator light that lets you know the battery state as well as a charging point. It is very light and fits nicely in your hand. Despite it’s slight size, this device still offers the user a satisfying and pleasurable vaping experience. To charge your device, you simply have to plug in a Micro USB to USB lead to a suitable power outlet. I found the battery to last a fair while, something that is vital, especially as the device itself is so small. It takes about 45 mins to charge. To add to the simplicity, there are no fiddly settings nor any buttons to operate. All you have to do, is just inhale, and you’re good to go. The inhale is tight, and there is no way to alter this, as there is no airflow adjustment on the device itself. It is possible to inhale directly to your lungs, but in my opinion, it is far better to use mouth to lung inhaling. This is also a benefit for new vapers who are transitioning from smoking to vaping, as it replicates the kind of draw that you would expect from a traditional cigarette. 6 FLAVOURS When vaping this eCig, you get a decent throat hit, and satisfying vapour production – despite being very basic. Although this is not my preferred method of vaping, I found that this device was very impressive. I got a quick, sharp hit of nicotine, immediately satisfying my cravings, as well as a delicious flavour. This device is small, but delivers a decent amount of vapour. I would definitely recommend this to both people who are wishing to quit smoking and those who need a small and handy vape. VM13 | 175
