As e-cigarette enthusiasts, their pursuit of e-cigarettes is endless. They often have several sets of equipment to meet different usage scenarios, and some even exist as collections. But for others, simplicity, convenience and portability, and people-friendly price are the primary factors being considered. In fact, these are the basic elements that e-cigarettes should have.
After recently launching a series of heavy-duty high-end products, Shenzhen Avipos Technology Co., Ltd., as the world's first-line e-cigarette designer and manufacturer, has launched a small, simple and practical e-cigarette set SMOK G80KIT set, abandoning the complex technology and exquisite shell skills of the past, the main focus is smart and light, which is very suitable for daily household use.
The plastic body is equipped with a light aluminum alloy shell, making it very light and easy to carry out the street or use at home.
The set uses a newly designed G80 body and the previously unveiled taste artifact cyclone atomizer, which is functionally enough for daily smoke enthusiasts. Overall, this is more like Avipos 'popular product attacking the low-end market. What are the specific performance and performance? Let's walk into today's G80 suit review.
[Packaging Appearance]
The packaging of the G80 set received this time is retail packaging. The main picture shows that the product received this time is a gold product, and the freehand pattern on the back reminds it of the cyclone atomizer it is equipped with. This time, it is also covered with disposable plastic film when leaving the factory to ensure that the products received by users are complete and new. In today's e-commerce era, this detail is very necessary.
There is a product characteristics introduction, packaging list and precautions on the back of the package. It is printed in English, and there is an anti-counterfeiting inquiry sticker at the bottom. This time, the left side of the package still returns to the printed Steam Time APP QR code to download the community APP promoted by SMOK. The right side is printed with manufacturer information and product barcodes.
Open the package and take out the familiar box with upper and lower buckles. The items in the package are nested in foam plastic compartments and divided into upper and lower compartments, so that they will not be damaged even if transported for long distances.
Remove the packaging, and the list of items obtained is: 1 G80 mainframe, 1 Spirals cyclone atomizer (1 0.6 core atomization core pre-installed), 1 spare glass bin, 1 spare 0.3 atomization core, and 1 spare rubber ring bag (including 2 leak-proof black rubber rings for the glass oil bin, 2 leak-proof rubber rings for the atomization core, and 1 leak-proof rubber ring for the upper cover base), 1 data charging cable, and 1 copy of the manual warning card certificate each. This time, the packaging was not equipped with anti-collision ring, which may be an adjustment of the accessory strategy. Perhaps because it is for newcomers to get started, this Tornado is not equipped with reconfigurable RAB components, but it is also carefully prepared with 2 finished cores.
Take out the host and atomizer into a set, the volume is very small, the most direct experience is very light, the whole body arc design, do not fold hands, hold very comfortable feeling.
There are some differences between the three measurements and the data given in the official manual. The measured length of the suit is 119.8mm, the width is 39.5mm (including button width), and the thickness is 26.5mm. Compared with previous SMOK portable electronic cigarettes such as the AL85, the G80 appears slightly longer, but the width is controlled more narrowly, which means that it becomes more slim, and the overall volume is well controlled.
In terms of weight, the net weight of the set without batteries is 138.5 grams, and the working weight of a VTC4 18650 battery is 183.5 grams. This weight is among the lightest players among the recently launched portable models. Coupled with its small size, the experience is very light. As for how the weight is reduced, it will be detailed in the later section.
SMOK G80 Kit Temperature Control Kit Review
[Nebulizer]
The cyclone atomizer matched with the G80 set has been launched before, divided into large and small cyclones. This time, it is equipped with a small cyclone, which has the same golden color matching as the body. It is small and very classy, and its taste is also very outstanding.
Its length is controlled to 49mm, its diameter is a standard 22mm, and its weight is only 39.5 grams. It is very light and mini.
The main components can be disassembled into the drip nozzle, the upper cover (including the detachable drip nozzle holder), the glass oil chamber, the atomizing core, and the base, which can be easily disassembled and installed even for new people.
A major feature of this cyclone atomizer is that the top can be filled with oil after the drip nozzle base is screwed down, which is very convenient.
The base absorbs air, and the four symmetrical air holes are very beautiful, but the adjustment is too fine, which has some impact on the feel.
When refueling, place the glass chamber on the upper cover in this way, and tighten the atomizing core on the base, so that it will be easier to operate by screwing the entire atomizer.
[Host Appearance]
The overall design of the G80 mainframe is simple and clear, and the classic color contrast design of plastic and metal adds a lot to its appearance.
The measured length of the mainframe is 75.5mm, the width is 39.5mm, and the thickness is 26.5mm. Although the overall size is slightly higher, the width has been reduced a lot, so the overall volume is still quite small.
The net weight of the mainframe is 99 grams, and the working weight of one VTC4 18650 battery is 144 grams. This weight is very light. Compared with the weight of a general temperature-controlled mainframe with 18650 batteries, it is a very lightweight player.
A 0.9-inch OLED display can be seen on the front of the mainframe. Compared with high-end screens such as the AL85, it displays slightly less content, but the clarity and related parameters are enough for daily use. The SMOK logo is printed on the bottom of the front. There are no particularly fancy prints or accessories. It takes a practical route.
The back is more concise, with only the G80 model printed on the bottom. Careful friends may have discovered a small hole in the middle of the front and bottom of the back. This is the locking hole of the shell. We will reveal the marbles inside later.
On the right side is the main operating area of the G80. The ignition button and the +/-adjustment button are distributed in the upper position. However, the positions are a little too close and the three buttons are not very large, so it is easy to accidentally touch the/-button during ignition., or accidentally touch the ignition button during adjustment. I am used to the single large ignition button, and it really takes some time to get used to using this piled button. Speaking of which, the concept of single large buttons was developed by SMOK's Alien, G-Priv, and H-Priv models. Now SMOK's G80 needs to be adapted in reverse. On the lower right side is a standard MicroUSB charging interface, which supports charging while using it, making it convenient to hang a charging treasure for battery life when going out.
There are only three battery pressure relief holes on the bottom on the left side. However, for this model, these three small holes are unnecessary. It is estimated that they are more for the design needs.
The top electrode is a 510 standard electrode, and the positive electrode is elastic, so it can be compatible with any 510 standard interface atomizer. The negative electrode is designed to be stainless steel. Unfortunately, there is no protruding surface, so the front surface of the atomizer will still be scratched when it is tightened. It is a pity.
In terms of atomizer compatibility, in addition to being very coordinated with the set of 22mm cyclone atomizer, since the thickness of the G80 is 26.5mm, the combination of the thick diameter atomizer is also quite good, such as this 24.5mm diameter TFV8 Big Baby atomizer is also very good.
The bottom is very simple, with only the CE mark and no holes, so that it can be placed on the table to a certain extent against immersion liquids.
Finally, we came to the biggest feature of the G80 mainframe, the pull-out battery cover. Pull the aluminum alloy shell downward a little harder to separate it from the mainframe, and otherwise push it back to replace it. The fixed task is completed by the two marbles below being stuck in the positioning holes in the shell.
It is not difficult to see the secret of the G80's lightness from the side after separation. Most of its main body is made of plastic. The aluminum alloy shell is also relatively thin and light, effectively reducing the weight of the whole machine. However, in terms of materials, the overall refinement is slightly lower than that of machines such as the SMOK AL85 or H-Priv Mini. Therefore, it can be inferred that the G80 should be a model launched by SMOK for users who value more cost performance.
There are positive and negative marks in the battery compartment, and the positive electrode of the battery is installed at the elastic electrode.
Install the battery, and then slip the shell in from bottom to top.
The original intention of this pull-out battery cover is good. Compared with the magnetic shell, it is more stable and does not require too much force. In addition, the alloy material can also reduce the weight well. I even suspect that it can also be designed to change color shells at will to meet users 'different color matching needs. However, for players who like to use the RDA oil-dripping atomizer, its performance is not so friendly. Several times, it has been pulled out casually, but the RDA cover has not been pulled out. Instead, the machine has been disassembled, and once the battery even flew out. If you must put the RDA on the G80 mainframe and remove the cover, be careful to grasp the black plastic part with your hands before you can use it hard. It also takes some time to get used to it.
[Host Function]
Although G80 is more concerned about entry users in terms of materials, this does not mean that its performance or functions have shrunk greatly. In fact, there are many G80 functions such as power, temperature control, multi-heating wire support, smoking statistics, etc. The operation interface is also consistent with SMOK flagship models such as Alien shaped, etc., and the cost performance is quite good.
Its menu and operation mode are highly consistent with other models recently launched by SMOK, which will be very easy for old users of SMOK to learn. Since there are many detailed comments in previous evaluations, I will not elaborate here. Interested friends can refer to the function operation section in this evaluation:
"Delicate and gorgeous violent SMOK ALIEN dual electric 220W special shape set evaluation"
In terms of safety, the G80 mainframe has multiple safety protection designs such as long-press ignition protection (12 seconds), motherboard overheating protection, short circuit protection, resistance over-limit protection, and reverse battery connection protection. Big brands such as SMOK are very reassuring to use.
[Host disassembly]
The main frame of the G80 is relatively simple in structure and is very easy to disassemble. Remove the screws on the top and battery compartment, remove the baffles on the side, and you can see the internal motherboard. The layout of the motherboard is very regular. Compared with the layout of the standard 3-button e-cigarette, only the screen is turned to the side with a cable to meet the needs of the mold. The main control adopts Xintang's solution, which is very helpful for controlling the cost of the whole machine.
The electrode adopts an integrated solution, which has first-class liquid-proof effect, but it brings a little trouble to the welding. Since the surrounding areas are plastic parts, the space is relatively narrow, and there is a LCD screen on it, be careful not to misunderstand other parts during operation, and Make sure not to miss welding to avoid jumping or later disconnection.
[Host power curve measurement]
For actual use, the power output depends on the amount of smoke and taste experience. Therefore, a current, voltage and power meter is used in series on the electrode to directly measure the output power, and a TTL-USB communication module is used to upload real-time data to the computer, intercept its relevant measurement data, and make a graph, so that its power output is more digital.
The overall output of the G80 mainframe is quite stable. Using a 0.25 resistor, satisfactory and very stable power output is obtained in the high, medium and low power ranges of 80W, 60W, 40W, and 20W respectively, showing that this mainframe has a quite good circuit design:
From the above power tests, it can be seen that the output of this G80 in each power segment is sufficient and stable. As a single-cell host, it performs stably and reliably. It can meet the needs of general e-cigarettes, and its performance is quite good.
[Experience]
Due to its small size and light weight, this G80 mainframe is very convenient to carry around when going out. Even if it is used at home, the light body is not tiring. Moreover, because the corners are curved, it feels very comfortable and is very suitable.
Specific to the smoking experience, because the G80 output is very strong, it is usually used with a few watts lower than the conventional power when in use. Coupled with the excellent taste of the cyclone atomizer, it can bring a very good smoking experience. Replaced with the RDA oil dripping atomizer, the G80 can have very good output performance at a power of around 60W. There is no delay in ignition, strong output, and it is also ideal for playing with smoke. The performance in terms of temperature control is satisfactory. After testing, the support for Ti wire and SS wire is very good, and the temperature control cutoff is ideal. It is suitable for big-head shrimps who easily forget to adjust the pressure and feel frustrated.
[Summary]
The latest G80 kit launched by SMOK adopts a host design with replaceable batteries. It is small in size, light in weight, and is very portable and easy to use. Its functions cover mainstream power, temperature control, smoking statistics, etc. The full output of 80W is no problem whether it is replacing cigarettes or playing with cigarettes. It is a good daily e-cigarette. Its materials and design are slightly inferior to several mini models recently launched by SMOK, such as the AL85 and H-Priv Mini, but its lightweight design and lower price positioning also add a lot to it. In general, if you are a user who values more value for money, then the G80 should be a better choice.
Advantages:
1. Portable and compact, with excellent measurements and weight control, and easy to carry out.
2. Strong 80W power output, which performs well as a small single-battery box, meeting various e-cigarette usage scenarios.
3. The 18650 design can be replaced to improve machine durability.
4. Support power and temperature control modes, support Ni, Ti, and SS temperature control heating wires, and have complete mainstream functions.
5. The excellent taste and exquisite workmanship of the cyclone atomizer bring an excellent smoke experience.
6. One-stop shopping for the suit and use it at hand. The spare parts are practical and considerate, suitable for novices and veterans.
7. Multiple safety features such as long-press protection, overheating protection, short circuit protection, and reverse connection protection make it safe to use.
8. Easy-to-pull battery cover design, and the shell can be replaced to meet individual needs.
9. The screen display is clear and bright, and the parameters are simple and clear.
Disadvantages:
1. The buttons are too concentrated, and they are easy to be pressed by mistake during blind operation. It takes some time to adapt.
2. The paint surface is soft and easy to scratch the paint surface. It is recommended that the official launch of replaceable accessories for purchase.

In addition to the black gold color matching introduced in this article, the G80 also has black red, black green, and all silver color matching options. There are a total of 4 combination color matching options to meet the aesthetic needs of different players. At the same time, the spraying and leak-proof rubber rings of the atomizer have also been matched accordingly, and the details have been considered quite carefully.# p#pagination title #e#
