Review of Geekvape Aegis Hero Pod Mod Kit
Hardly any of vapers three years ago thought that the most popular vape mods will be his, though, a few modified externally, but with the same principle of operation. Naturally, we are talking about POD-systems and their successor sub-mods. Sub-mods have become the most popular devices for many vapers because of their autonomy, practicality and good flavor transfer. One of the best-selling series in the world is rightly considered to be the Geekvape Aegis series, which already includes two sub-mods Aegis Boost and Boost Plus. Marketers and developers of the company decided once again to continue this line and presented a new Geekvape Aegis Hero Pod Mod Kit. The device is unlikely to gain the same popularity as the Aegis Boost, but the device will definitely find its fans.
General Information
Geekvape Aegis Hero Pod Mod Kit is a compact pod mod powered by a built-in medium capacity battery, controlled by a proprietary chipset and designed to use G Coil Boost series vaporizers. The new device is made in a traditional for Aegis series design, and it reminds a lot of Aegis Legend, but in miniature. The functionality of the device is quite simple varivatt and bypass, but it is quite enough for most vapers. The cartridge with adjustable blowing is designed to use G Coil Boost vaporizers, which are available in every vape shop. You can buy the Geekvape Aegis Hero Pod Mod Kit in six colors red, silver, rainbow, black, blue and gun metal.

Aegis Hero Battery pack
Hardly any vaper will argue that one of the best-selling lines from Geekvape is the Aegis series, which has already proved itself with a positive side. Aegis Boost and Boost Plus sub-mods deserve special attention, which became popular immediately after their appearance. Deciding to capitalize on this success, Geekvape decided to release another device of Aegis series, which is called Aegis Hero Pod Mod Kit.
If you look closely at the Geekvape Aegis Hero Pod Mod Kit, you can see not only the characteristic features of the series, but also the fact that this device is practically a smaller copy of the Geekvape Aegis Legend. Although you can’t call this device quite miniature, as its dimensions are 82.9*48.15*35.4 mm and its weight is 80 grams.
The body is traditionally made of zinc alloy, aluminum bar and eco-leather insert with a characteristic stitching, so it is immediately clear that this is Geekvape Aegis. Naturally, the device has IP67 protection class against water, dust and mechanical influences (but you shouldn’t throw it on concrete or hit it with a hammer).
Geekvape Aegis Hero Pod Mod Kit can operate at a maximum power of 45 watts, which is provided by the built-in battery 1200 mAh is not much, but for a day of autonomous work it will be quite enough. The battery is charged with the help of micro-USB connector, located on the side surface and covered with a silicone plug, with a current of 1.5A.
The device works under the control of the usual for Geekvape Aegis devices chipset AS, thanks to which you can use two modes of operation varivatt and bypass. The board is able to raise resistance from 0.1 Ohm and its reaction time is 0.02 sec.
Geekvape Aegis Hero Pod Mod Kit is equipped with a small (0.42 inches) monochrome display, on which you can find a minimum set of information about the device.
Aegis Hero Pod cartridge
An important difference between the Geekvape Aegis Hero Pod Mod Kit and the Boost series devices is that the cartridge is held in the battery pack by magnets instead of latches. Very well, the device uses a traditional 510 drip tip, so you can install any from your collection.
To make it as convenient as possible for vapers to use the device, the replaceable vaporizers in it are of the G Coil Boost series, which can be bought in almost any vape shop. Initially, the kit comes with two vaporizers G Coil Boost 0.4ohm Mesh and G Coil Boost 0.6ohm Mesh, both on the mesh, so there will be no problems with the flavor. There is no information yet on whether there will be a serviced cartridge for this device
The Aegis Hero Pod cartridge has an airflow adjustment, which is realized with a small ring under the drip tip.
Refilling is simple and convenient on the upper end of the cartridge has a small silicone plug, opening which you can pour 4 ml of liquid.
Conclusions and impressions
Naturally, Geekvape Aegis Hero Pod Mod Kit will be difficult to overtake the popularity of Boost and Boost Plus, but many vapers will appreciate the practicality and modest size of the device. Although, if a serviceable cartridge will be available soon, the success of the device is guaranteed, especially since it is convenient, self-contained and supports G Coil Boost series vaporizers.
