Hello dedicated readers. Thank you for joining me for another review today. I’m rather excited today to be able to present my very first review for lost vape. I was sent the Ursa Mini in order to provide a fair and honest review so that you may decide for yourself if you would like to try one for yourself. The lost vape Ursa Mini is very similar in design as the Ursa Quest but much smaller. It comes in several vibrant colors and is very lightweight and can be easily carried for use out and about. The Mini contains a 1200mah internal battery and has an output range of 5-30 watts.
WHAT’S IN THE BOX?

7. Compatible with UB Lite coils
8. Smart coil detection, 0.69 inch OLED display screen
9. Multiple protections: Short-circuit/Weak Battery/Over Heat/10s Over-time Protection
INITIAL THOUGHTS:
The packaging for the Ursa Mini is fairly standard. It starts with the white outer sleeve with a nice color picture of the device on the front of the package. Once that was removed, inside was the mod with pod tank installed wrapped in a protective plastic sleeve along with the user guide and a slim box that contained the USB-C charging cable and two coils. The coils included in the kit are .4 ohm KA1 coil rated for 20-30 watts and a 1.0 ohm KA1 coil rated for 10-15 watts.
On the front of the mod going from top to bottom is the fire button which is nice and clicky followed by the .69” display screen and below that is the + and – buttons. The mod is made of zinc alloy and stainless steel and is very lightweight.
On the right side is the shiny colored panel with Lost Vape one the frame and the Lost Vape logo near the bottom on the shiny side panel. On the left side is another shiny panel along with the words Ursa Mini on the frame. Even though the panels are shiny, they don’t show fingerprints. The one I received for review is the Glitter Ocean version but I also have the Phantom Blue version that I won on a contest. The back of the unit has no branding. On the bottom of the unit is the USB-C charging port along with three venting holes. On either side above the side panels is the infinite airflow control. There are four different sized holes to make the airflow adjustment easily set to your personal preference. The stainless ring has vertical notches cut into the ring to make it easier to move. There is a positive stop on the airflow adjustment ring.
Of course, above the airflow ring is the pod receptacle of the mod. The receptacle has a metal ring for the six pod magnets to attach to and has two spring loaded gold plated contact that make contact with the coil.
The .69” display screen shows the following information.
- Battery level indicator
- Coil resistance
- Set wattage
- Length of current puff
- Puff counter
The menu operation of the Ursa Mini is fairly simple. The button operations are as follows.
- Press the fire button five times to turn the device on and off
- Press the fire button and + button to lock or unlock the adjustment buttons only
- Press the fire button and – button for three seconds to reset the puff counter
The mod has a maximum battery voltage is 4.2v so does not have a boost circuit. I honestly wouldn’t expect it on a small device like this. The promotional literature claims that the 1200mah battery will last all day. I think that depends on how heavy you use it and which coil you are using but yes I could get it to last an entire day since I’m not an extremely heavy vaper. The Ursa Mini does have smart coil detection which is a good feature to have on a device like this to keep new users from damaging new coils.
The Ursa Mini pod is fairly dark tinted and a little hard to see the liquid level depending on the light level where you are. The pod holds 3ml of liquid which is a really good size for such a small device. The drip tip is a molded part of the pod and is not replaceable. I didn’t mind that and found the tip to be very comfortable to use.
The fill port rubber plug is on the bottom of the pod like most pod devices we see these days. I found it easy to fill with the bottles I commonly use and had no mess. I found it interesting that the opening where you push in the coil there is a plastic support on either side of the coil which I assume is to help keep the coil in place. Normally what I see is just the coil hanging out the bottom of the pod on other devices. It’s not really necessary but I like that Lost Vape thought of it to add that feature. I was able to change the coils in the pod very easily and was able to change them with a partial tank of liquid with no mess. However, if it’s too full then you will get some spillage.
Like I mentioned earlier there were a .4 and a 1.0 ohm coil included in the kit but there are also a .8 and a 1.4 ohm coil that can be purchased separately that can be used in the Ursa Mini.
I liked the .4 ohm coil very much and felt like it delivered very good flavor and a generous amount of vapor. My preferred setting was at 22 watts with the airflow completely open.
I don’t normally use higher resistance coils that much but really liked the 1.0 ohm coil at 14 watts and once again with the airflow open. Due to the design of the coil the airflow is somewhat restricted by the coil itself. I prefer an airy MTL vape and was able to get nice performance with this coil. You could also close the airflow down to one hole or a partial one hole to get a tight MTL if that’s something you like.
FINAL THOUGHTS:
I already owned several Lost Vape devices before receiving the Ursa Mini for review and associate their name with quality products. I was not disappointed. I felt like the Ursa mini was a well done rendition of the Ursa Quest of which I own three and thoroughly enjoy.
I like the simplicity of the button operation of the device along with the USB-C fast charging, infinite airflow control, the very strong magnet connection, and of course the very good flavor and vapor production. After all, flavor production is a big part of what can make or break a device for me.
The zinc alloy and stainless steel construction give a quality feel to the Ursa mini without it being a heavy device. It is small enough that it can almost be completely hidden in the palm of my hand which is nice if you need to stealth vape or don’t want to draw attention.
So would I recommend the Lost Vape Ursa Mini pod device for you? I really would. I have very much enjoyed testing it and plan on continuing to keep it in my rotation. I would like to thank Lost Vape and Chloe for sending the Lost vape Ursa Mini for this review and look forward to future cooperation with them. A great big thank you to you the readers. This doesn’t happen without you. Below is a link to the Lost Vape website if you would like to look around.
