Speaking of this device, it has a significant background. It was designed and developed by the well-known founder of the vaping community, A Shen, in collaboration with Dovpo (恒万升) to launch a regulated box mod that emphasizes military themes and power (the violence of soldiers is justifiable).
Regarding the design inspiration for the VEE regulated box mod, A Shen provided the following images, which vividly and intuitively showcase the entire process of the VEE's emergence, demonstrating A Shen's sharp vision. The packaging of the VEE is quite elaborate, with the product's 3D rendering being exceptionally eye-catching. The embossed silver logo on the box highlights the high-end quality of the VEE. Lifting the packaging lid reveals the VEE, quietly waiting for the arrival of the warrior like a high-energy weapon.

Focusing on the VEE, it draws inspiration not from the grip of a gun but from a section between the barrel and the grenade launcher, making it quite realistic. Excluding the black body, the VEE resembles a handgun, exuding a strong weapon vibe and high energy, with a substantial feel. It may not impress you, perhaps because your military sentiment is not strong enough.
The craftsmanship of Dovpo is beyond doubt, with fine casting and neat cutting, showing no rough edges. In fact, craftsmanship to some extent affects the feel. Upon holding it, I found the VEE's feel to be excellent. Besides the size factor and compact design, A Shen has also rounded the edges sufficiently, giving me a comfortable yet not rigid feel, lightweight yet not heavy. Especially with the addition of rubber patches on the sides for anti-slip, players with sweaty hands can also enjoy a good grip experience.
The metal scratch-resistant plate at the top 510 interface is relatively small and does not have a noticeable protrusion design, which may lead to scratching issues with the atomizer. Players who pursue perfection should be cautious when connecting the atomizer. However, the interface's 100% sealing capability is commendable, as it can withstand significant leakage from the atomizer without fear.
The fire button, which has the product name printed on it, is designed on the upper side of the body. It feels comfortable to press, with moderate hardness and strong rebound, preventing accidental presses. However, its slight protrusion may slightly affect the overall aesthetics. If it were designed beneath the rubber patch, using the rubber patch as the fire button, it would be even more perfect.
As a dual-battery device, the VEE is compact enough to be comparable to a single-battery device, indicating that its internal design is quite tight. The battery cover is located at the bottom, and although the design is relatively traditional, it is well-sized and precisely crafted, ensuring no wobbling or noise when closed. Although not the main feature, it is still important, as any noise from wobbling can affect the user experience.
The display screen is located on the front of the device. The screen is not large, and one might even say it is quite small. After using the mechanical switch below the +/- buttons to turn on the screen, I found that the round screen only displays the voltage, which immediately gave me a good impression. This display effect is exactly what I have always desired (please forgive my limited knowledge). Now, the VEE has finally fulfilled my dream of a minimalist display, liberating my eyes and reducing complexity (facing a plethora of data often leaves new players at a loss).
As mentioned earlier, the VEE's power-on method is achieved by toggling the mechanical switch (the screen displays the current voltage when powered on and the resistance value when firing). Compared to the traditional method of pressing the fire button five times to power on, this is much more convenient (toggling up to power on and down to power off). Additionally, this method is safer and more reliable in preventing accidental power-on issues.
To allow players to accurately grasp the current battery level, A Shen has designed an LED light above the screen. Players can observe the color displayed by the LED light when firing to determine the battery level.
From the above, it is evident that all operations of the VEE are extremely simple. In fact, the biggest difference between the VEE and mainstream regulated devices lies in the chip. I won’t elaborate too much on the chip's performance, as any explanation from a player feels like showing off in front of A Shen. Instead, let’s look at A Shen's authoritative interpretation of the VEE: "The VEE device supports a minimum resistance of 0.05Ω (0.05Ω-3.5Ω), with an output voltage range of 1-8V. You can confidently use various low-resistance data with high voltage output to experience the burst of vapor. The series power feels very sufficient. I spent a lot of effort to ensure the chip's excellent output, and you may feel extremely fierce when you first use it, as this is true full output (friends with a multimeter can measure its output at various levels, which is exceptionally precise). It does not need to be falsely labeled and is completely genuine, whether you use traditional low-resistance or mid-resistance wires. In terms of safety, you need not worry; when the resistance ≤0.04Ω, its short-circuit protection will activate accurately. For any device, this limit is quite powerful."

Additionally, he mentioned: "You might ask why the output at 4.2V is significantly stronger than the output of a fully charged battery at 4.2V on a mechanical mod. The reason is simple: the VEE provides full output to the atomizer, reaching the set output instantly and maintaining balance, without the parabolic curve of a mechanical mod. This is the meaning of regulated output." In fact, when using in power mode, I often only look at the voltage and never care about the wattage. Sometimes I wonder, if voltage can express clearly, why complicate things with wattage (wattage is derived from voltage)? It seems a bit counterproductive and unnecessary.
In terms of performance, it is undoubtedly excellent. In summary, it is simple, fierce, and powerful. For conventional atomizers, there is no need to worry about resistance; just set the VEE to your usual voltage and you can start vaping like using a mechanical mod without any adjustments. Even if you switch to a different atomizer, just install it and start vaping without needing to adjust; as long as the voltage is set, the device will output different wattages based on the atomizer's resistance without needing to calculate wattage for adjustments. The firing is rapid; press the button and it fires instantly, with a measured response time of only 16 milliseconds. This tiny time difference is imperceptible to the human body, allowing you to start inhaling the moment you press the fire button without any waiting. The output power is also very strong, with genuine full output. Compared to different devices, using the same voltage output, the VEE is the most powerful. Moreover, it provides stable output, with no perceivable parabolic decay, maintaining consistent flavor from the start to the end of the puff. The flavor produced by the VEE is also significantly different from that of typical regulated devices, with a heavier particle feel in the vapor and a clearer taste, fully expressing the flavor of the e-liquid.
In conclusion, the emergence of the VEE regulated box mod, which embodies futuristic technology and a weapon-like design, has deepened my love for firearms. It is not only well-crafted and sci-fi in appearance but also extremely simple to operate, with super powerful output and excellent feel. I cannot say it will always be by my side, but at least we will form a deep bond, even though it does not have a USB charging port. Once again, I thank A Shen for his generosity and Dovpo for their strong support.
