SMOK S-Priv Kit 225W skull edition review

Today we’re introducing a kit that isn’t elegant, isn’t scary, and certainly isn’t sexy. If anything, it feels a bit cartoonish. This skull design looks a little too fake—couldn’t they have made it more realistic and intimidating? Haha, the skull’s mouth

   Today, we introduce this kit. It is not beautiful, it is not scary, it is not sexy; it gives me a cartoonish feeling. This skull is too fake, can it be made a bit more realistically scary?     HOHO, looking at the skull's mouth feels so childish...

    Kit contents: S-Priv Skull mod, TFV8 BIG BABY light-up atomizer, product manual + battery instruction card, spare glass tank, USB data cable, warranty card, spare O-ring pack.     The spare O-rings for the TFV8 BIG BABY light-up atomizer are really numerous, with colors including red, orange, yellow, green, white, blue, and purple.     Corresponding to the rainbow colors, but the only difference is that the cyan color is replaced with white.   I wonder if there are players in the world who are so bored that they change colors every day for a week??     I won't elaborate much on the atomizer here, as I have already done a detailed review of this light-up atomizer in previous issues, so let's just briefly touch on it. SMOK S-Priv kit 225w Skull Edition Review     The main color of the device is bright red; I actually like to call it "flashy red" because those who can pull off flashy red must be quite young and trendy.   I wonder if I'm right?     The entire material is painted, as only paint can make the red appear so bright and alluring.   Otherwise, if you use matte or stainless steel, it would give a dark color feel, like something dark and sinister.     The line design on the main screen looks very familiar at first glance, right?     That's right, it resembles the shape of a wizard's hat. I don't quite understand this design; a skull wearing a wizard's hat? What is that?   I really want to ask the SMOK designer where this design concept came from; I really want to know...     Have you all watched the Japanese anime "One Piece"?     In this anime, there is a skull holding a long sword named "Brook".     I compared it, and if you omit Brook's hairstyle from the anime, it does look a bit similar. Very creative screen design, it overturns the previous concepts; it is no longer square or rectangular, but has a more artistic feel.     Continuing down, the eyes of the skull are white, with two LED lights that can change colors. How flashy!     Of course, it can also be adjusted through the color interface for color changes; this is very simple, players can experiment and choose their favorite color.     The details, when magnified, show a strong sense of depth and layering.     However, there is one downside: it looks a bit plastic; I wonder if anyone else feels this way?     The back has a USB port, and the upright charging mode has always been one of the issues I emphasize. Why choose an upright mod? The reason is that it won't tip over during charging, causing the atomizer to leak. If the USB is at the bottom and the atomizer is placed at an angle, it is very easy for the atomizer to tip over and leak. So this design is not problematic.     The top uses a gold-plated 510 connector with a self-adaptive design. What is self-adaptive? The self-adaptive connector can be compressed; some atomizers have slightly longer connectors, while others are slightly shorter. If a longer atomizer is not adjusted with a self-adaptive connector, there will be a large gap between the atomizer and the mod.     I need to mention this battery compartment cover. When the battery is not installed, if I lightly touch the battery compartment cover, it shakes slightly. SMOK should pay attention to this. However, once I install the battery and tighten the cover, the shaking disappears, but the problem still exists. Although it does not affect normal use, I must mention it.     The mod is powered by two 18650 batteries in series, and the compartment cover indicates + and - and AB. + equals the positive terminal of the battery, - equals the negative terminal. Newbies who don't understand can refer to the markings to avoid installing the batteries incorrectly, which would prevent the device from turning on.     In terms of weight, a dual-battery model cannot be too light; just the weight of the two 18650 batteries is significant. I can only say that the elongated appearance combined with the rounded edge design fits the palm well, making it more comfortable to hold. Plus, the entire body is painted, which performs well in terms of smoothness, as it is overall smooth without any rough points. It's acceptable, belonging to the standard product size.     A mid-to-high-end chip provides us with long-term use, including safety performance and stable output performance, which are guaranteed. The device can last for 2 years without issues. If you drop it and it malfunctions, that would be due to human factors. I mean under normal use, 98% of the time there are no problems, excluding individual special reasons. This is very important for new players; you wouldn't want a mod that breaks after a month of use, right?     I actually don't want to talk much about the 225w chip, as I have detailed it in previous posts, including operational aspects. If you still don't understand, I'll briefly explain it.     Press the fire button 5 times to turn it on, press the fire button 3 times to enter the (as shown) interface, where you can select (W watts) (TI titanium) (NI nickel) (SS stainless steel) (M mode, in this mode, the wattage increases by 10 watts at a time until it reaches 220w).     The last option, Preheat, is the output frequency, with soft, normal, and high burst options. In this option, I do not recommend choosing other modes; just select N mode, as there is no need to adjust it.     New players who are just getting into vaping definitely don't understand many aspects, so choosing a reputable manufacturer is very necessary. The key factor is (guarantee). Because good after-sales service allows us to play with peace of mind, without worrying about buying something and then having to deal with the merchant's issues. Recently, I encountered several new players who chose some products with little reputation, including some finely crafted atomizers, etc. You might think it's good to buy something cheap, just to play around. But if you buy it and it breaks after 3 days, how would you feel? Would you regret it or blame it? Or would you curse the merchant for selling inferior products?     If you buy a device that breaks due to product issues and go to the merchant to discuss a replacement or pay extra for a replacement, but the merchant coldly tells you it’s due to human factors, what will you do? How can your purchase get the consumer protection it deserves?     Some may ask: If I buy a SMOK device and it also has issues, but the retailer won't let me replace it, what should I do? I can clearly tell you that if it is confirmed to be a quality issue and the retailer refuses to replace it, we can directly return it to the factory for repair or replacement.     When contacting the manufacturer directly, we need to ensure the following points:     First, ensure that your packaging includes a repair card.       Second, if purchased online, ensure you have a purchase record.     Third, if purchased offline, please ensure you have the detailed address of the offline merchant.     So I advise everyone to choose well-known domestic e-cigarette brands; of course, it doesn't have to be SMOK, there are many others like Firearm E-Cigarettes, Jirei E-Cigarettes, etc., just so we can have a better vaping experience.     The product details I discussed today may be a bit sparse, but I sincerely wanted to say some things, so I also used the review of SMOK's new product to call out to new players. Do you want to end your vaping journey for 30 bucks after 3 days? Or would you prefer to spend 300 bucks and happily vape for over a year? Anyone who isn't foolish should understand this logic. Thank you all for listening to my rambling for so long!~   Don't criticize if you don't like it! HOHO~~~~#p#分页标题#e#
