    ► VOOPOO ARGUS A; Adjustable Airflow:
    The "Azure Blue" colorway of the ARGUS A is very beautiful and seems to evoke the image of the sea through its gradient color. Choosing a zinc alloy chassis not only gives the device a sturdy build, but also a sense of superior quality. The compactness and ease of handling of ARGUS A make it an extremely practical device, suitable for those who are always on the move. The air control system, operated by a robust metal pin, offers further customization of the user experience, allowing users to choose between open or restricted airflow, depending on their preferences and the cartridge in use. This flexibility in airflow control is an example of how ARGUS A was designed with users' specific needs in mind.

    ► VOOPOO ARGUS A; The first POD with dual zone display:
    The back of the Mod features the vertical writing "ARGUS" in relief and in silver color. On the front we find a design with dual displays, both are elegantly placed, so that the upper (larger) one embraces the lower one.

    • In the upper display there are;
    A semicircle with six notches that light up progressively during the puff, the backlit writing "VOOPOO", the active mode (Power, Eco, Super) the value of the coil, the duration of the last puff, and the total number of puffs .

    • In the lower display there are;
    A different dynamic animation for each set mode that is activated during the shot, the graphic indication with percentage of the cell charge level, the set power, and the lock/unlock symbol of the Fire button.

    The features of the ARGUS A dual-zone display allow you to have complete and fun information. Furthermore, to save energy it is possible to completely deactivate the graphics except for the "VOOPOO" writing in the upper display.

    • Top Fill 3X Upgrade Cartridge:
    The ARGUS G2 kit is equipped with a new, completely updated cartridge, featuring the exclusive iCOSM CODE flavor interpretation technology. The cartridge is called "ARGUS TOP Fill". It features an e-liquid capacity of 3ml and according to VooPoo offers 30 days of use without leaks, with a coil life of 90ml. Inside the ARGUS A package we find; 1 Top Fill ARGUS Cartridge 0.4Ω (3mL) and 1 Top Fill ARGUS Cartridge 0.7Ω (3mL).

    The new "ARGUS TOP Fill" cartridge offers good feedback with the lips, filling from the top requires lifting the rubber by inserting a nail under it, unfortunately for me who don't have sharp nails this operation is rather uncomfortable.

    VooPoo offers a wide range of replacement "ARGUS TOP Fill" cartridges to provide users with a diversified vaping experience from MTL to RDL. They are available with different resistive values and with capacities of 2/3ml. You can choose to use disposable or "empty pod" type cartridges with replaceable ITO coils. This new line of updated cartridges is compatible with all products in the VOOPOO ARGUS POD family, including the ARGUS A (naturally) and the launched ARGUS G2, ARGUS P2, ARGUS G, ARGUS P1, ARGUS P1s, ARGUS Z, ARGUS POD SE and ARGUS POD previously.

    ► VOOPOO ARGUS A; Final conclusions:
    The 0.7Ω cartridge dedicated to MTL vaping is automatically set to 16W by the chipset, with this cartridge I really appreciated the good flavor obtainable especially with open airflow, the aromatic yield is of a good level with exemplary operation and no spitting. By restricting the airflow you get a hot and contrasty MTL shot, with a good throat hit. Furthermore, ARGUS A with a maximum output of 30W can also be used with the new 0.4Ω cartridge which is capable of providing a concentrated flavour, with deep and fluid aspirations, accompanied by a considerable amount of steam. The 0.4Ω cartridge dedicated to RDL vaping is automatically set to 25W by the intelligent chipset. After very intense use of both of these cartridges I have not detected any trace of condensation in the compartment/pod. Compared to other similar Pod cartridges on the market, the VOOPOO ARGUS Top Fill cartridge has a larger integrated coil and this undoubtedly makes atomization more efficient and more adequate. The interpretation of the iCOSM CODE flavor seems to me to be up to par and even superior to the best proposals from the competition. In conclusion I would like to recommend ARGUS A because it is a very attractive kit that offers excellent tactile feedback and new features; increased e-liquid capacity, longer battery life with super fast charging. The choice of 3 different vaping modes allows the user to choose between a standard power delivery, a super power delivery and a power saving mode. The new animated dual screen interaction along with vibration feedback truly offers an extraordinarily engaging and intuitive vaping experience. This Kit is suitable for more advanced users who like to try new technologies and seek personalized experiences, but also meets the practical needs of most vaper's.

    • I would like to thank VOOPOO for providing me with the kit. I hope this review has been helpful to anyone looking to purchase ARGUS A.

    • Thanks for reading.
