    Hello again everyone todays review comes from Vaporesso and it's on the baby brother of the Gen S . The little miniaturized version of the Gen S is called the Gen Nano, and as the name refers it is tiny. I was sent the Gen Nano Kit that includes the GTX tank 22 and as the name implies uses Vaporesso GTX Coils so you get cross compatibility with other Vaporesso devices and or tanks that use the GTX Coils. As always lets get to know the Gen Nano as well as the GTX tank 22 before I give my review of this kit.

    FIRST IMPRESSIONS


    The Gen Nano comes packaged just as it's big brother with a tray holding the GTX Tank 22, spare glass ( 2ml ) and mod, underneath the tray is a box containing spare o-rings, usb cable, 0.6Ω coil, warranty card, user manual, and a GTX coil card. Preinstalled is the bubble tank as well as the 0.2Ω coil.

    As the name implies the Gen Nano really is a tiny device that also is lightweight even after the included GTX Tank22 is screwed on. I have been able to carry it in in my shirt pocket without a heavy sag of material happening. The Nano uses the same almost rubber like coating on the mod and is one of the most comfortable feeling non-slip type of coatings I've used on a device. There are no sharp corners, all the edges of the mod are rounded off just like it's big brother ( GEN S ) which adds to the great hand feel the Nano provides. Charging is done by a USB port located at the bottom of the mod. The mod uses a centered 510 also.

    The GTX Tank 22 is a top fill but doesn't use a separate top cap from it's original top cap instead the whole top lid unscrews , there are no fill ports, just pour your juice into the glass tank, just be sure not to overflow or pour juice down the center stack. The Tank has a duel airflow configuration and wide open is very airy. ( AIR LOVERS DREAM ). Closing the tanks airflow down you get a nice restricted DL vape.

    The GTX Tank 22 uses the GTX Coils which I'm glad Vaporesso went this route instead of developing a new coil, the GTX coils are cross compatible with other Vaporesso products that use the GTX Coil.


    GTX COIL PLATFORM SHOWN AGAIN ARE COMPATIBLE
    WITH TARGET PM80, PM80SE,GTX ONE AND OTHERS

    Returning back to the Nano it's the normal 5 presses of the power button to turn on/off. The Nano has a total of 4 buttons that include the power button, up button, down button and a 4th button the menu button which is centered under the up and down buttons at the bottom of the device. Having a dedicated menu button is a BIG PLUS because with a menu button you no longer have to remember button combinations to get into and use the menu anymore.

    To get into the menu once the device is turned on either press the menu button 3 times or hold the menu button down for 3 seconds and the menu screen will appear on the display screen, then simply scroll across to your desired feature in the menu. I already covered in detail the menu system both the Gen S and the Nano use in my review of the Gen S. If you haven't seen it or wish to see it again The link is here.

    As was shown in the description of the Nano earlier it houses a 2000 mAH battery that if used at moderate wattages will last the user a good amount of time before a recharge is needed. I rarely go over 80w so the Nano fills my needs nicely. Battery venting is done with 10 small holes located on the bottom of the Nano.

    The 0.91" OLED display screen is a bit dimmer than the Gen S especially for viewing outdoors. The screen has all the information you need done in a very nice layout that includes a battery % and not a graph as most devices have.

    The Nano when viewed with it's big brother shows just how tiny but powerful it really is. I absolutely love my Gen S but I grab the Nano for any long errands . Both have that great rubber type skin and both are absolutely gorgeous.

    FINAL IMPRESSIONS


    My final impression of the Vaporesso Nano with the GTX Tank 22 is this, The mod itself is a dream for errand running because of it's size and weight and paired with the GTX Tank they go together like a PB&J sandwich. Having a tank that matches your mod is something us vapers always strive to achieve but seldom accomplish but is not going to be the case with the Gen Nano kit ( 100% tank and mod color match ). Vaporesso is a company that always seems to think of the little extra things it can include that either make it easier to use or gives a added feature. The added features I like with the Nano are a battery % meter and a time displayed until battery is fully charged in minutes.

    As a regular user of the GTX coils I was thrilled to see them used in the GTX Tank 22 because I get really good flavor from them. The GTX Coil Platform has a coil for just about any vaper making this tank even better than it already is. The top fill is different but not a con to me.

    Put them together and they work, and work well. I have been able to shirt pocket this kit without a material sag so that should tell you how light the combo are together. I have had 0 leaks from the tank but have encountered a very juicy type of vape after filling that last for about 3 or 4 vapes then settles down to normal.

    Performance of the Nano has been great, no failure to fire or any type of problems since using for a couple of weeks. I review many products and something new always comes along and takes the place of my out and about device I've been using such as the Xros taking the place of the Xtra as this has just done to it. Yes the previous out and about devices I used were both by Vaporesso, no favoritism here they just fit my vaping style for out and about errands.

    So in wrapping this up I can say that I think this device combo works very well and I would recommend it very highly. I would like to thank Jessica, Chelsea and Vaporesso for providing the Gen Nano Kit for review and I hope this review was helpful to anyone planning on purchasing the Vaporesso Gen Nano Kit.

    THANK YOU

    Nice I like the mod a lot. It's cute like its big brother.

    I am starting to believe you are a professional photographer. The mod companies should hire you to like, take beautiful, shiny pictures of their creations.

    Somewhere between here and there
    Can you use this with the ZLIDE or Nautilus Mini? I like its simplicity but not understanding the references to GTX Coils? Do mods now have a coil like the tanks?

    The gtx coils are the replaceable coils that this particular tank uses and they fit several other vaporesso tanks and pod kits. Yes you could use any tank with a 510 connection with the Gen mods so yes the zlide and nautilus would work on the Gen nano.

    As hittman just said, with a 510 connection any tank that has it will work.
