    Somewhere between here and there
    Hello and welcome. Today I’m going to cover a new disposable from Zovoo which is a subsidiary of Voopoo. If you read my reviews then you might remember that I had done one review for them previously. It was on the Dragbar R6000 and R8000. This time I will be taking a look at the Dragbar Z700SE which of course was sent to me by Zovoo in order to provide a fair and honest review. Each one of them is rated for 700 puffs but only have 2ml of pre-filled liquid inside of them. They are not rechargeable or refillable so when the liquid runs out then it is in fact “disposable”. They are auto draw only like most disposables and have a single indicator light that illuminates when you take a puff. The Z700SE uses Gene Tree ceramic coils to ensure a good flavor with each puff. The liquid contained in each unit has a nicotine strength of 20mg. One issue that I have with a lot of disposables is that the manufacturers seem to think that everyone wants enough menthol or cooling agent in every flavor to melt your face. I was pleasantly surprised by the last ones I reviewed for Zovoo so hopefully they have followed suit and did not put too much menthol in these. We shall see.

    INITIAL THOUGHTS:

    The packaging for the Z700SE is very simple as you might expect for a disposable. They come two devices in a box and the Dragbar and Z700SE name is on both the front and back as you might expect. Also front and back is a large warning letting us know that nicotine is addictive. As if we didn’t already know. I’m sure this is due to regulations where they will be released rather than Zovoo or any other manufacturer really wanting to put these warnings on their packages. On the front is the claim that you will get 700 puffs from each of these 2ml disposables. I seriously kind of doubt it but I am not going to carry a note pad around with me to try to record the number of puffs that I get from each one. I can tell you that I finished one in one day while still using other mods and tanks in between.

    On the back is a second warning in smaller type near the top of the box as well as a list of specifications and company information. I almost forgot to mention that each one has 2ml of 20mg nic salts. I personally am not crazy about nic salts but know some people do and to each his own. I have to say that I chuckled when I saw the skull and crossbones on the top right side of the back of the box.

    I was actually sent three different flavors/boxes of the Z700SE for testing. The three I received were Blueberry Raspberry, Green Apple Ice, and Triple Melon. My first thought was to start with the melon and save the apple for last since it had ice in the name.

    Inside each of the three boxes, there are two Z700SE disposables sealed in a foil pouch with a clear front so you can see the device inside. The foil pouches have a notch on each side near the top that make it very easy to tear the pouch open to remove the device inside.

    Each one has a clear rubber stopper inside the mouthpiece to keep it from getting any debris inside. I guess if you wanted to, you could save the stopper to reinsert it between uses or for carrying it in a pocket to keep lint out. The Dragbar name is on the front of the Z700SE with no branding on the opposite side. I do like how the flavor and strength of the liquid inside are printed on the front of the pod. This comes in handy when you have two that have the same color of main body like I did with the Three Melon and the Apple Ice samples I received that were both a yellow color. The printing makes it easy to tell which one you are picking up.

    In the third picture below you can see that there is a clear plastic strip wrapped around the device where the pod meets the body. This needs to be removed before using the device. It also has a message on it about what it’s designed to do once the e liquid gets too low. I can tell you from experience that once the liquid level gets too low that the white LED light that sits under the center of the D in the Dragbar name will flash multiple times and will not fire once the liquid level gets too low. You can see the remaining liquid level in the last picture below when it stopped firing for me.

    The airflow on this one comes in through a single hole on the bottom. I found myself multiple times accidentally covering the air inlet hole with my hand when using it so had to pay attention not to cover it. Most pods and disposables I have seen have the air inlets on the sides of the device and that is what I’m used to so am not surprised that I had issues covering the inlet.

    FINAL THOUGHTS:

    The Z700SE is a decent small disposable device. The auto draw on it worked flawlessly except when I accidentally covered the inlet on the bottom with my hand. It is very small and thin and will easily fit in just about any pocket for ease of carrying and since it doesn’t have a button you don’t have to worry about accidental pocket firing. Did I get 700 puffs from each one? I really don’t have any idea but it really didn’t seem like it. Of course the number of puffs you get is going to depend totally on the length of each puff and everyone is different. I don’t know what the standard is for measuring the number of puffs from a device but have a feeling that it isn’t very long.

    There’s not a lot to talk about on this one so I’ll give my thoughts on the three flavors that I received for the review.

    Apple Ice: I’ve never really been a fan of apple flavored vapes. To me the apple flavor was very light on this one and the menthol/cooling agent was very strong on this one. After just a few puffs it was so strong that the menthol hurt my throat. I feel like the apple flavor was overshadowed by the menthol and this was without a doubt the strongest menthol of the three I received but I kind of expected it with the “Ice” in the name.

    Triple Melon: I tried this one first since I tend to like melon type flavors. I honestly couldn’t tell you what the three melon flavors are in this mix but the flavor was definitely pleasant and the menthol was quite a bit less than the apple flavor which made it more tolerable but chain vaping and then taking a drink of water resulted in throat pain.

    Blueberry Raspberry: This one was my favorite out of the three and the first one that I vaped until the pod was empty. The blueberry and raspberry mix is very good but a little on the sweet side. More like a candy to me. This one seemed to have the least amount of menthol and I was able to vape it for quite a while without any pain in the throat from the menthol.



    I was notified after I had already written this review that there were some leaking issues with the original samples that were sent out although I did not have any leaking problems. Therefore Zovoo postponed the release date so they could solve the issue before release and I was sent three new samples so wanted to cover those also for you. They were three different flavors from what I previously received. I had no issues with the new samples either.

    Blue Razz Ice: This is obviously a blue raspberry flavor. It is kind of sweet with a candy like taste to it and not like real blueberry or raspberry. Like all the others I have tried it did have a somewhat strong menthol to it but this was my favorite of the three new ones. I just couldn’t vape it for very long at a time due to the strength of the menthol.

    Pineapple Ice: This one is a very sweet candy like pineapple. It kind of reminds me of the juice that is in a canned pineapple only sweeter. This one also has a fairly strong menthol to it.

    Strawberry Kiwi: This one sounded good so tried it first. It has a good mix of strawberry and kiwi but was a bit too sweet for me. Also the menthol was unnecessarily strong.

    I know I always complain about menthol in disposables but don’t understand why manufacturers won’t put out some flavors with no menthol in it. I am a menthol user and use a menthol tobacco every morning when I get up. However I don’t mix my menthol so strong that it hurts my throat. I feel like many of the fruit flavors that I have tried in pods and disposables do not need the menthol and the flavors would stand up well by themselves without it. My only guess is that they are adding the menthol to intensify the throat hit. Mission accomplished!

    I’d like to thank Zovoo for sending these samples for this review. I can only hope in the future that they will come out with some flavors without the strong menthol. Thanks to the readers for putting up with my ranting and reading my review. Below is a link to the website if you’d like to see what Zovoo has to offer.
