Refilling is easy, if a bit fiddly at times, though it doesn’t bother me at all. The fill port is located on the bottom-front of the pod, which is a bit of a strange location. I estimate that I’ll get another two to three days out of this pod before it needs replacing. I’m on day 5 of using my current pod-the 1.2Ω (ohm) version-and the flavour shows no signs of waning. In the past, other pods with built-in coils would last me an average of 3 to 5 days due to the sweetness of the E-Liquids I use. Hopefully they’ll rectify the issue in future versions of the Gene chip.

We, and many others, have discussed this with VooPoo, as it’s the only major con with the company’s hardware, but it’s present across the board.

This is true, but also, the real reason behind this is an issue with the software in VooPoo’s Gene chip, which doesn’t allow for pass-through charging.

VooPoo negates this issue a bit with the fast-charging capability, and the company maintains that there is a reason for this: because pass-through charging degrades the battery faster over time, leading to a decreased capacity and a shorter lifespan.

Imagine: you’re out and about, desperate for a nicotine hit, your vape is dead, and you’ve got it plugged into a portable battery-but you can’t vape while it’s plugged in. This can be really irritating for some people. This means that you cannot use the device while it’s on charge. One definite con for the Argus P1-and all of VooPoo’s devices, in fact-is that there is no pass-through charging capability.

Sometimes, it’s best to just stick to the controls everyone else is using for clarity and user experience.įor most vapers, I’d say that the Argus P1 should last you a full day before it’ll need another recharge-and luckily, charging takes less than 20 minutes, so there’s almost no down time. Maybe I’m just thick, but it feels like one of those instances where a video game tries to be edgy by mapping the jump button in a different spot from where every other game has it. And if the lights glow red while you’re vaping, this means the device is below 25% battery. Again, this was something I had to look up in the user manual. The only way to check your battery level is to either remove or insert the pod-at which point, the lights will glow depending on how much battery you have left. This preserves battery and, among other things, ensures you’re getting the perfect inhale every time. I really love this feature, even though I found the signals from the lights a bit confusing. Still, this means that the Argus P1 tailors the power output of each individual puff to better suit the user’s draw (mine is a tight MTL, which explains the lower power output), which is excellent.

So, I had a look at the user manual and found that while vaping, the lights glow to signify the power output-not the battery level. Then, I tried inhaling a little harder, and lo and behold: all 4 lights glowed. For instance, when I first opened the vape, adjusted my airflow, and began vaping, only two of the lights would glow-and I was confused, as the device was meant to come with a full battery. I did find that the signals from the LED lights weren’t very intuitive. One point worth mentioning is that the LED lights are difficult to see while you’re vaping, since they’re obscured by the bar that attaches to the lanyard. What you end up with is a really stylish but unobtrusive vape: my favourite kind! I really do love a device that requires almost none of my attention. Plus, the device has auto-draw activation, meaning you only need to inhale on the mouthpiece to fire. The Argus P1 has almost no interface-just the tiding battery indicator lights to notify you of various scenarios.
