Review of iJoy Zenith V3 Box

Many vapers remember the time when varivolts appeared on the market and successfully competed with mechanical mods. Gradually varivolts became less popular, as they were massively replaced by the more practical vari-watts. But this does not mean that devices with the ability to regulate voltage have lost their relevance many vapers (not only old-school) successfully use varivolts, getting high performance and reliability. One of the vivid examples is Zenith V3 Box from the famous Chinese manufacturer iJoy. An important feature of this device is the work on batteries 20700 format, which allow you to get high performance and give the device autonomy.

General Info about the varivolt

iJoy Zenith V3 Box is a semi-mechanical box mod or semi-mechanical box mod that runs on two 20700 standard batteries with adjustable coil voltage and a maximum peak power of 300 watts. The box mod comes in several colors of gold, rainbow, steel, blue, red, lilac and green, with the color referring to the bezel around the perimeter of the device. new zealand vape shop richmond Among the distinguishing features are the ability to use 18650 batteries and 16-position control of the voltage supplied to the coil.

Naturally, nothing supernatural, but nothing was forgotten.

Appearance and design

Vapers who track devices from famous manufacturers can immediately see that iJoy Zenith V3 resembles very much another product of the company – Diamond PD270, and this is not a bad thing, because the design is interesting and original. The case is made of zinc alloy with plastic inserts, which in the end look very harmonious.

On the front panel you can find a quite noticeable potentiometer, the back is made without any special features, but it is the back panel is the cover of the battery compartment, securely held by four magnets. It is worth paying tribute to the engineers of iJoy, who designed the back cover to completely avoid backlash.

The dimensions are medium, so the device fits perfectly in your hand, allowing you to press the fire button with your index finger or thumb. The landing pad for the atomizer will please many, it is located in the center and allows you to install atomizers with diameter up to 30.5 mm, so there will be no problems with selection, possible overhang and levitation.

Functionality, performance and operation features

As mentioned many times before, the iJoy Zenith V3 is a classic varivolt, equipped with a potentiometer and a standard set of protections. With two 20700 or 18650 batteries, you can get maximum power up to 300 watts. The voltage adjustment is done with a potentiometer, the round control knob of which is necessarily visible on the front panel.

The potentiometer is made quite unusual by rotating the knob, which rotates 360 degrees. You can set one of the 16 positions that determine the applied voltage to the coil. The operating voltage range of 2.4 – 6.9 volts allows you to heat even the most complex coils without much trouble. Batteries are connected in series, so you can get up to 300 watts of power. The presence of the 20700 battery allows you to kill two birds with one stone – to provide the vaper with autonomy and high performance and to get rid of the problem of finding and buying batteries.

Operation and indication

There is a fire button on the side surface, which visibly protrudes, making it impossible to miss during operation. The manufacturer has provided a USB port that allows you to charge the batteries at any time. The voltage regulator is made in a somewhat futuristic style, but gives the device a special style. During the rotation of the knob, each turn is accompanied by a sound, which can be turned off without much trouble.

The indication is quite simple, but with very clear two LEDs, the color of which changes when you change the applied voltage and one of the preset types of protection is triggered.

Impressions and Conclusions

iJoy Zenith V3 is quite a specific device, which on the one hand is very easy to use and reliable, but on the other hand the simplicity significantly limits the scope of its use. This device will definitely be to the taste of vapers who don’t want to think long and hard about the power and temperature modes and just add more voltage when they are short of vapor.
