Hi, today let's take a look at some new kit by VooPoo. I hope that by the end of this reading you will have understood these products, and therefore decided whether to invest in them or not. As always, my opinions are free and based on my personal experience.
• Enjoy the reading.
► Let's see some special features indicated by the manufacturer for UFORCE-L tank:
• 1. Triple air intake to balance the flow and make the flavor tasty
• 2. Top-down airways to isolate condensate and prevent leaks
• 3. 360° airflow adjustment to customize your favorite flavor
• 4. Innovative 510 base with heat sink
• 5. 4ml/5.5ml capacity, easy top fill system
• 6. Compatible with VOOPOO Drag 4 Kit/Mod and all PnP coils
• 7. PnP dual in one technology for powerful cloud and richer flavor
When I received the packages of ARGUS GT II Mod and UFORCE-L tank I was blown away because I hadn't been updated with no shipping notification and no tracking link. Furthermore, my bewilderment increased when I realized that I had already examined both, both the ARGUS GT II MOD and the UFORCE-L tank combined in this case with DRAG4 MOD.
At my request for explanations, the VooPoo representative anticipated that 3 kits that will use UFORCE-L TANK will soon be distributed and asked me if it was possible in the review to give more prominence to UFORCE-L TANK rather than the Mods. VooPoo obviously believes a lot in this new tank that uses pre-assembled coils and interesting DL/RDL solutions. I was uncertain about how to compose this writing, I could have added some new images and insert links to my previous reviews, however after careful consideration I decided to do a bit of copy paste taking my previous considerations by combining them with the current ones and adding some new images + further links.
► While waiting for the new kits to be distributed, the lucky owners of an ARGUS GT II or XT/MT mod can compose and obtain a powerful DL/RDL vape kit by purchasing the UFORCE-L TANK only.
► In the box of UFORCE-L TANK you will find:
• 1* VOOPOO UFORCE-L Tank (4ml)
• 1* VOOPOO PnP-TW20 0.2Ω
• 1* VOOPOO PnP-TW15 0.15Ω
• 1* Spare convex glass (5.5ml)
• 1* Pack of Spare O'rings
• 1 * User Manual
► Vaper's will be able to choose 3 different colors for UFORCE-L TANK.
► UFORCE-L TANK Specifications:
The diameter at the base of UFORCE-L TANK is 25.5mm and the height (Standard Version) is 58mm. The construction material used is Stainless Steel + Pyrex. The weight of this sturdy tank is about 90g. The Gif image below shows the tank in bubble glass and straight glass (TPD) configuration. The TPD version is 5mm shorter and uses a pyrex glass that holds up to 2ml of e-liquid.
► UFORCE-L TANK + ARGUS GT II Mods:
To make the most of UFORCE-L TANK which is capable of great RDL/DL performance, what could be better than an advanced Mod like ARGUS GT II? In fact, the tank fits perfectly and the Mod is able to push it to high powers and manage it perfectly. According to VooPoo ARGUS GT II Mod is able to offer you the following great options:
• Stable output and maximum power of 200W
• IP68 Tri-Proof Rated, Indestructible
• GENE TT 2.0 Chip-Enter the era of intelligence
• 3A Quick Charge: Enjoy happiness at full power
The new gene.Chip TT 2.0 of Argus GT II MOD is able to deliver a maximum power of 200W and offers the possibility of adjusting the Time Out from 10s to 20s with the possibility of intervening by adjusting the brightness level of the Display. There are also three memories for use in TC as well as the new TURBO mode with even more aggressive power delivery. At the top of the front the fire button sticks out just enough and is easy to reach with your fingers, it's not very quiet and it wobbles a bit, but that doesn't bother me. The underlying color display has a size of 0.96 "and clearly shows all the useful indications for vapers; selected power, running mode, level and percentage of charge of the two 18650 cells, Puff counter, Coil impedance, Volt, and duration of the last Puff. Below the screen appear the two adjustment keys "+" and "-", these keys are more fixed and less dancers than the Fire key, the adjustment keys are equally protruding and easily reachable by the fingers. Below adjustment keys there is a switch to quickly lock / unlock the Mod. The lock of the adjustment keys function is not present, however I would have preferred that there was, because it prevents the user from inadvertently raising or lowering the selected power during the vape.
The upper base of Argus GT 2 seems to "float" on a soft cushion which is nothing more than an insulating silicone gasket that aesthetically connects well with the body of the Mod and with the base. The maximum diameter that can be used to accommodate atomizers without external protrusions from the Mod is 29mm. The 510 thread contains a floating type gold plated pin. But the real novelty is represented by the sliding cap that protects the USB-C 5V-3A fast charging socket from infiltrations.
The lower base like the upper one is wrapped in the same type of silicone insulating gasket. The base reports on the bottom; the "CE" mark and the disposal logo. On the side there is a cursor button for accessing the compartment/batteries, I assume that this sliding button also functions as a safety vent for the two 18650 cells. The flap appears to be easily accessible, rather solid and free from abnormal movements, it contains the indications for inserting the cells. The indications for inserting the accumulators are clearly visible.
Compared to the original Argus Mod, this new Argus earns the IP68 Tri-Proof (Shock-Proof, Dust-Proof, Waterproof) classification with the benefits that follow from this choice, on the new Argus the weight and final dimensions of the Mod grow slightly and naturally However, the streamlined design of Argus GT 2 with soft and well-connected curves does not make you regret too much the excellent portability and handling qualities of the previous Argus 2020. Furthermore, compared to the past, the new IP68 classification further enhances this product together with the valuable decorations, and the best materials used.
In the side view of this Mod you can see the French screws (two) on each side, the screws have the task of fixing the sturdy and protective metal mask to the frame. This solid structure is hermetically connected to the front of the Mod and to the decorative leather insert that also covers the rear handle. The writing with laser marking "Gene Chip Inside" is shown vertically on one side in a discretionary way and with minimal visual impact. The chrome parts are present along the entire profile of the Mod, the chrome is very beautiful and shiny but turns out to be a real magnet for fingerprints, especially on the side panels. I have a weakness for the soft decoration that extends from the side panels to the grip side of the Argus GT-2, the leather gives a "warm" tactile perception, soft and velvety, and the visual aspect of the Fonts used for the branding is pleasant and aggressively highlights the name of this Mod.

► UFORCE-L TANK + ARGUS XT and ARGUS MT:
As I anticipated UFORCE-L TANK will be used as original equipment by VooPoo also on the Mod ARGUS XT and ARGUS MT. The promotional slogan of VooPoo "Solid As Argus" leaves free interpretation, but in my opinion it sums up the IP68 characteristics of MT and XT Mod well to meet the real needs of cloud chasers who want to live in the open air, in all environments and in most extreme conditions of use and without fear of damaging their devices. The designers of Argus MT & Argus XT focused on developing a strong IP68 structure by selecting a high-strength double-layer metal shell. After thousands of tests on the entire project, the structure would have achieved the goal set by VooPoo which was to create new Argus devices as durable and resistant as volcanoes.
The updated GENE TT 2.0 Chipset, ensures stable output up to the maximum power of 100W and supports Smart, RBA, TURBO and TC modes. Smart mode we all know how useful it can be in case of distractions. The RBA mode supports the user in customizing the preferred power between 5 and 100w even with regenerable tanks. Triple memory mode for TC can record previously set values. The new TURBO function is the mode that can maximize the release of vapor by the PnP-Coils with the greatest possible load of aroma, surely this last mode best represents the preferences of users using lung tanks.
These new devices are equipped with a type-C 3A fast charging interface which is hidden and protected from various infiltrations by a metal flap. With the Type-C fast charging function, Argus XT and Argus MT increase the speed by at least 30% while maintaining a safe and stable current in the device. Furthermore, real-time BMS protection is active on the XT's 3,000mAh internal battery. The BMS thermal sensor monitors the temperature and cuts off the power for 30s when it reaches 60°c, keeping your device and utility safe. Voopoo Argus MT & Argus XT have high-level finishes, two-way quick switching system (QS) for XS and three-way for XT, high performance, and a good compromise between size and weight, with a decidedly high charge autonomy thanks to the possibility of introducing a 21700 cell on the XT or thanks to the MT's internal 3,000mAh battery.

► UFORCE-L TANK; how it's done:
Now let's see in detail what is the first VooPoo Sub-ohm Tank equipped with "Top AFC" because it is a particular construction type which, compared to the classic "Bottom AFC" arrangement, is able to eliminate any loss of e-liquid. In the image below U-Force-L Tank is completely disassembled, this tank is easily disassembled for cleaning operations and the package is particularly rich in spare silicone gaskets and o-rings.
VooPoo (cleverly) made the 810 housing featured in the top cap "standard", this solution allows you to use any 810 Drip Tip that comes with one or two silicone rings. The original delrin Drip Tip has two silicone rings that offer an excellent grip, the extraction hole at the base is 7mm wide and the chimney widens upwards progressively to end with a 10mm diameter at the top.
The top cap has a finely knurled perimeter for better finger grip. In fact, with the classic bayonet system, 1/2 a turn is enough to remove the cap and proceed with filling. There are two filling slots with elastic holes to allow the insertion of even fairly wide tips present on the various e-liquid dispensers. In the image below you can see the large silicone gasket removed from its housing, you can see the shape of the gasket and the protuberance that goes into the only blind hole which is near the two filling slots. You can also see the "bayonet" system for opening the top cap.
To adjust the triple air intake you can rotate the AFC ring on the top of the atomizer clockwise or counterclockwise to obtain a DL / RDL extraction at will. The three large vents are connected like a funnel to channel and optimize the airflow from top to bottom.
In the Central Structure of the Tank you can see the 3-headed wolf logo engraved with laser. Also there are 3 large windows for the e-liquid to pass through to the coil, these windows are carefully flared on the edges. As you can see in the image below, the SS version of U-Force-L Tank has a white oring for the pyrex glass seal, while the Black U-Force-L Tank uses a black oring for the seal of the pyrex glass. These details seem insignificant but demonstrate how VooPoo is very attentive to aesthetic details.
The base is quite deep to contain the possible formation of condensation and to keep them without a way out. In the center are the gold plated contact pins for better electrical conductivity to be transferred to the coil. The coil is inserted with a simple pressure in the central structure, the three air intakes envelop the coil at 360°, feeding it in a wide and uniform way. Furthermore, the sturdy hollow structure absorbs the noise of the airflow to allow you to enjoy the vape quietly and without annoying whistling. The base joins the central structure via a sliding thread, between the base and the central structure there is a silicone o-ring for an airtight seal.
Below you can see the effective design of the base that mimics a heat sink, this helps speed up the cooling of the tank. On the bottom of the base are; the inscription "VOOPOO", the inscription "Designed By VOOPOO", the CE mark, the disposal logo. The 510 Thread contains a gold plated, low protruding fixed type pin.
In the image below you can read the details of the new PnP coils of the TW Dual In One Tech series. These coils have been specifically designed for this tank and to offer the best RDL/DL performance. As we all know, the PnP coil platform is particularly wide and also includes an RBA base, so you can use various coils according to your needs, moreover you will not have difficulty finding PnP coils on the market as they are very popular and appreciated by enthusiasts . For this new tank, VooPoo has included a 0.2Ω PnP-TW20 Coil with 40-55W range and a 0.15Ω Pnp-TW15 Coil with 55-70W range. These are two of the new TW series PnP coils that can be recognized by the presence of a purple o-ring, while the previous VM series PnP coils have a red o-ring. According to VooPoo, the new TW series PnP coils use dual-in-one technology to achieve 25% longer duration, purer taste, and denser clouds.
► Vaping Test & Final Conclusions:
For this Test I used TNT Good Posion aroma diluted 10% with VG/PG 70:30 and boost 3mg/ml.
• Coil PnP-TW20 0.20Ω 40-55W:
The Mod Argus GT2 in SMART mode automatically set 50W of power for this coil, however since the coil was new I started with 40W and then gradually increased the power. With 40W of power the coil fires up quickly but the flavor is bland and even with the airflow half-closed, so I jumped straight up to 50W and the flavor improved noticeably with good release of thick vapor clouds. I also tested the physical limit of the coil which is 55W, obtaining excellent performance and an apparent constancy of power supply, without suffering or dangers of dry-burn, however with a view to saving energy, I preferred to position myself permanently at 50W and then start testing the air control. With the three airflow slots fully open there is almost no resistance to the flow of vapor in the mouth, however the flavor is not as diluted as one would expect by closing the AFC to 50% restriction on the airflow. airflow is pretty ineffective, so I found my sweet spot by setting the airflow to about 1/3 open.
• Coil Pnp-TW15 0.15Ω 55-70W:
The Mod Argus GT2 in SMART mode automatically set 65W of power for this coil, however being the coil new, I started with 55W and then gradually increased with the power. With 55W of power the coil activates quickly, the flavor is good, the vapor is slightly too humid, switching to 60W the flavor increases and the nebulization improves making the vapor hotter and more consistent. I went up to 70W and with the airflow wide open the flavor is at peak output with embarrassing dense cloud production. So I started to adjust the airflow by opening it to 50%, again I noticed little restriction of the flow, however this coil is capable of absorbing a lot of air and one can turn a blind eye to this AFC system which is not in capable of restricting the air passage in a linear way.
My favorite coil is the 0.15Ω Pnp-TW15 because it offers extremely concentrated flavor with a truly wild power delivery. However both of these new TW series PnP resistors with dual-in-one technology performed great and deliver what they promise.
After the excellent vape test obtained with UFORCE-L TANK, i want to spend a few words also for the captivating style of ARGUS GT II which is made of leather and metal with luxurious decorations that make the Mod attractive and pleasant to handle. ARGUS GT II also implements IP68 classification. The ARGUS GT II designers focused on the structural development of the mod by selecting a high strength double layer metal shell. After thousands of tests the VooPoo development team has certainly achieved the prefixed goal which was to create a robust device with multiple security protections; waterproof, dustproof, antifreeze and anti-collision to better face all the most extreme environments and conditions of use.
The updated GENE TT 2.0 Chipset of Argus GT II enables stable output up to the maximum power of 200W and supports Smart, RBA, TURBO and TC modes. The Smart mode we all know how useful it can be to safeguard the coils in case of distractions in power regulation, the RBA mode supports the user in customizing the preferred power between 5 and 200w, the triple memory mode for TC can record the set values previously, and the new TURBO function is the mode that can maximize the vapor release by the PnP-Coils with the greatest possible flavor load, surely the latter is the choice most in line with the vaping habits of DL users.
ARGUS GT II is also equipped with a Type-C 3A fast charging interface which is conveniently hidden and protected from various infiltrations. The Chip can dynamically balance the charge of both 18650 batteries while maintaining a safe and stable current in the device. The charging speed is 30% faster, significantly reducing waiting times and prolonging the time dedicated to vaping.
I hope I haven't bored you with this long review/summary, I conclude by telling you that if you want to hunt big flavorful clouds; you can safely buy one of the 3 amazing Argus kits equipped with U-Force-L Tank and you will be satisfied.
