    Welcome back folks for today's review of one of Voopoo's latest kits called the Doric 60. This is a stick styled device with a power output of between 5-60 watts with a internal 2500mAh battery and has 3 power levels to choose from with a couple of new features that I'm glad Voopoo included on the Doric 60 Kit. Simplicity in the making is how I would describe the Doric 60 with many popular Voopoo traits .

    UNBOXING AND FIRST IMPRESSIONS


    Voopoo did things a little differently with the packaging for the Doric 60 by having the device with the PNP Pod attached resting in a plastic shell that slides out of the shipping box, when I first opened the package and slid the tray out I was stumped that no bag or box containing the charge cord, 2nd coil and user manual fell out with it.

    The reason being that all of the above mentioned items are in a box that fits snugly up inside the plastic tray underneath it, nice space saving method they used.

    I was sent the SPACE GREY color that is a nice neutral color, it definitely has a metallic look to it. 2 rows of knurling on the 360° airflow control ring add style to the Doric's look. Doric is printed on the device below the fire button towards the bottom of the device, it's very lightly printed which I like.

    The bottom of the device has designed by Voopoo at the bottom and made in China at the top, there is a single hole for the internal 2500mAh battery venting in the center surrounded with a rubber ring that keeps the device secure from falling over to easy and it also protects any surface that the Doric is placed on.

    For most of you out there you are familiar with the PNP Pod from past devices from Voopoo but some of you might be seeing it for the first time. 4 very strong magnets secure the pod to a metal base that sits inside the device. The PNP Pod uses a bottom fill method with a very large fill port that fits 100ml bottle tips easily, coils are push and pull hence the name.

    On the subject of coils the VM1 0.3Ω mesh rated to be used between 32-40w and the VM5 0.2Ω mesh coil rated to be used between 40-60w are the included coils. The VM5 on the left has a little bit more mesh hitting the cotton surface than the VM1 on the right giving it a warmer vape, I know these coils very well and performance wise both are very good.


    20210922_140947.jpg



    Inside the device is the metal ring or ledge that connects with the magnets on the pod making a very strong connection, inside the ledge further down into the device at the center are the 2 gold contacts the make connection with the installed coil, at the top of this picture above one of the gold contacts and between 2 black screws is the auto-draw inlet tube of the auto-draw feature of the device.

    The 2 knurling bands of the 360° airflow ring that I mentioned earlier are better seen in this picture, below them are the 3 bright led lights that indicate power level and battery strength above the fire button.

    Voopoo uses 3 power levels that are different from each other and can be felt in the vape.
    The 3 power levels are as follows ( HIGH-WHITE ) ( MEDIUM-GREEN ) ( LOW-BLUE ), I have been unable to find out what wattage or voltage setting each levels output is except that the device power output is 5-60watts, it's not stated in the manual or on Voopoos website.

    To change power levels press the fire button 3 times quickly to get into the adjustment mode, when in adjustment mode the 3 led light indicators will remain on, while lights are on each press of the fire button will change the power level to a new one.


    HIGH - ( WHITE )

    MEDIUM - ( GREEN )

    LOW - ( BLUE )

    The indicator lights also serve another purpose telling you the % of power left in the device.

    3 LIGHTS - 60-100%

    2 LIGHTS - 30-65%

    1 LIGHT - 30-0%



    Airflow of the Doric 60 is very smooth and has no funny sounds when cutting it down at any position it's in, even the single hole position I tried for a short couple of vapes, I'm glad that Voopoo decided to include the single hole for the air flow, using the MTL coils in the PNP line really gives battery life a boost lasting all day for most vapers.

    Auto-draw is a function that many vapers like and the Doric has that feature, having your air flow wide open will require you to inhale very deeply to get it to engage while the more closed down the air flow gets the better it performs, it's a nice feature but I'm a button presser myself.

    Tube styled devices balance on a very thin line, to long and they tip over easily, to thin and the hand feel ergonomically is off and battery capacity isn't vey high.

    The Doric 60 seems to conquer all of those short cummings with a 2500mAh battery in a short but girthy package that is also very lightweight while still being of a sturdy nature.

    Putting the PNP Pod on top was another good choice, I am probably biased here with that statement because I use the PNP Pod everyday on another device that's in my personal rotation of favorites and have been for some time because the Pod has good capacity and the PNP coils are some of the best in the industry.

    Overall I think that the Doric 60 has a very attractive classy look with little accents that add to it's charming looks.

    Performance has been great although I did get the 8 flashes of red lights letting me know I was over the limit and gave me a time out after a few 5 second vapes that I normally don't do but wanted to test the protection feature out.

    I think Voopoo did a great job on styling the Doric 60 in the looks department and it has performed just as nice as it looks. Having the ability to use all the coils in the PNP line also gives the device bonus points.

    I would like to thank Aimer and Voopoo for providing the Doric 60 to me for the purpose of this review and I hope my review helped answer any questions some of you might have had.

    THANK YOU
