SMOK Vape Pen 22 Light-Up Edition Review
The well-known vaping brand SMOK has continued to grow in industry recognition. In addition to its advanced product lineup and astonishing pace of R&D updates, what makes it especially memorable is its distinctive appearance and highly futuristic lighting
The well-known vaping brand “SMOK” has been gaining more and more recognition in the industry. The reasons are not only its highly developed product technology and astonishing pace of R&D updates, but also its distinctive appearance and highly futuristic lighting design that make it unforgettable at first glance. In this respect, much like Audi in the automotive world, calling it the “lighting powerhouse of the vaping industry” is no exaggeration. Today’s featured product, SMOK’s new “VAPE PEN 22,” continues this design language, allowing that famous title to live on.
After unboxing the “Vape Pen 22,” you can see many family-style design elements in the accessories as well, such as the bulb-shaped glass tank and sealing rings in multiple colors. A charging cable and spare coil are also included as standard, but there is only one glass tank, which feels a little stingy. If it also came with a straight glass tank, that would be even more generous. Still, it does include quite a few colorful sealing rings, which is very satisfying. Using different colored rings together with the lighting also creates more visual variety and gives users a greater sense of fun and surprise.
From the name alone, it is clear that the “Vape Pen 22” is a pen-style slim device with a 22mm diameter. Its constant-voltage output makes it very simple and convenient to use, and its bright colors make it easy for users to like. It also has a feature that sets it apart from other products: the atomizer cannot be removed, making it essentially an all-in-one device. This design is very simple and convenient in practice. You only need to install the coil on the device, fit the glass tank, and tighten the top cap before it is ready for normal use. It offers the portability of a compact vaping device while also delivering the feel of a constant-voltage setup. There are no major surprises, but it performs quite well. Of course, it would be even more appealing if the atomizer supported replacement. It has both strengths and weaknesses, so it ultimately depends on personal preference.
The “Vape Pen 22” uses a non-adjustable airflow design. In preliminary testing, the draw resistance is fairly moderate, making it suitable for restricted direct-lung use and below. Because it is an integrated design, the airflow holes are not on the atomizer but on the upper part of the device body, with front-to-back through-flow for smoother air intake. This not only produces larger vapor clouds, but also delivers a more direct flavor experience, adding to the overall enjoyment and fun.
Another feature of the “Vape Pen 22” is that both included coils use a mesh heating design. Compared with traditional wire coils, mesh has a larger contact area with the wick, allowing the e-liquid to atomize more thoroughly and resulting in better flavor and mouthfeel. Although the coil resistance is 0.15 ohms, which leans more toward big cloud production, the mesh design also gives it stronger flavor performance, helping it win over more users.
Since the “Vape Pen 22” comes from a brand famous for its lighting design, of course its lighting effects deserve attention. A row of white LED lights is installed around the top of the device, and they light up when you press the fire button. If you take it to a nightclub, it will definitely attract plenty of attention. When the battery is running low, the ring light will also flash frequently as a warning. At that point, it will stop firing and needs to be recharged. During charging, the main lights do not turn on; only a separate indicator light shows whether charging is complete, avoiding an overly dazzling effect while charging. If you get tired of a single color, just swap in one of the spare rings in your favorite color, and the lighting immediately becomes much more vivid, giving it a fresh new look. The light in the fire button flashes in sync with the atomizer lighting, making the overall effect even more high-tech. In fact, there is also a light around the charging port on the back, making it easier to find the port precisely in a dark room for charging, though that will not be shown separately here.
Overall, the “Vape Pen 22” may look like it is geared toward big vapor production in terms of airflow design, but the mesh coil also gives it solid flavor performance. Its all-in-one constant-voltage design places it somewhere between today’s popular compact vaping devices and conventional setups, offering both convenience and the fun of vaping. In terms of appearance, it is no less attractive than other products, and the addition of lighting further enhances its futuristic appeal, making it even more eye-catching and striking. If you want to use it as a daily device, its performance is absolutely up to the task. And if you want something a little different, it is definitely a good option. #p#Page Title#e#
