SMOANT S8 Compact Vaping Device User Experience
For many vaping users, SMOANT is a familiar name. Known for offering affordable and practical products, SMOANT has built a certain reputation in the vaping industry—from the early SMOANT Mini, once nicknamed the "street-stall Peng," to the still-popular B
When it comes to Klaypeng, many vaping users are not unfamiliar. Known for its affordability and usability, Klaypeng's products have gained some fame in the vaping industry, from the early Klaypeng mini, once dubbed "street vendor peng," to the currently popular Space Fortress device. As the small vape trend heats up, SMOANT has also released a similar product, the S8.
Battery and E-liquid Capacity
The Klaypeng SMOANT S8 small vape product differs from the commonly seen pen-style vapes, resembling a flat pebble. The larger size of the S8 brings a 370mAh built-in battery and a 2ML e-liquid capacity, providing stronger endurance in terms of battery life and e-liquid.
The built-in 370mAh battery can easily last a day under normal usage frequency. During use, the LED light at the cartridge interface will illuminate (red/blue), indicating the device's status through the color and blinking pattern of the LED (the manual provides detailed references in Chinese). When charging (LED blinking), a constant blue light indicates a full battery, which takes about 30-40 minutes to charge fully.
The S8 continues Klaypeng's high cost-performance ratio. What can you buy for 168 yuan? The S8 will make every consumer rethink the term high cost-performance. The refillable S8 comes with a 10ML bottle of nicotine salt e-liquid, meaning that upon purchasing the S8, you also receive five 2ML cartridges. Given that closed-system cartridges are priced over 20 yuan each, the S8 indeed offers exceptional value.
The factory-supplied e-liquid is from SMOANT's designated partner brand, Conqueror nicotine salt e-liquid, with a raspberry tobacco flavor. The Conqueror e-liquid uses the same anti-counterfeiting system as Klaypeng, allowing users to verify the authenticity of the e-liquid through Klaypeng's system, facilitating future purchases of Conqueror e-liquid. Currently, there are five flavors of Conqueror nicotine salt e-liquid, providing S8 users with more flavor options for later use.
The S8 also adopts a magnetic plug-and-play structure, a method that has been widely accepted in most small vape devices for its convenience and reliability. Air intake is achieved through the connection between these two components, but a downside is that some condensation may occur at the bottom of the cartridge's air holes. Regular cleaning with a tissue during daily charging can easily resolve this issue; condensation is unavoidable in any electronic cigarette, whether large or small.
Cartridge Refilling
The manufacturer has thoughtfully provided a syringe-style refill bottle for the S8, which greatly facilitates the refilling process. The syringe leaves ample space for air to escape when inserted into the cartridge, ensuring smooth e-liquid injection. The thick rubber stopper at the bottom of the cartridge effectively seals it, and during testing, no leaking issues were found.
Small vape devices are inherently not comparable to low-resistance RDAs in terms of flavor intensity, as the difference in the amount of e-liquid evaporated by the atomizer core is a definitive fact. The birth of small vape devices directly addresses the need for smoking alternatives, undoubtedly maximizing portability, usability, and craving relief to a level that RDA products cannot match. Comparing small vape devices to RDAs using high concentration is a rather irresponsible viewpoint.
User Experience
The flat S8 body combined with a smooth finish makes it very comfortable to hold. The flat duckbill-style cartridge fits well in the mouth. Compared to pen-style vapes, the S8 may not have the advantage in weight and size, but there are no concerns about portability. Additionally, the S8 offers a wider range of color options, and with its sporty design, it has a more fashionable appeal.
Conclusion
With its sleek and stylish sports car design, comfortable grip, and a variety of color options, the S8 stands out among small vapes. Although it does not use a ceramic atomizer core, the refillable cartridges still provide a good flavor experience. Plus, with the included 10ML e-liquid, if you're considering a small vape kit for smoking alternatives, the S8 is worth considering. #p#分页标题#e#
The flavor is moderate, neither too light nor too strong, with a slightly tight draw and a slight delay in the switch. One small issue to note during use is that the cartridge is almost in a "two-chamber" state, with e-liquid interchanging through the gap in the mouthpiece's airflow. However, when the e-liquid is nearly depleted, the positioning may cause an imbalance between the left and right chambers, affecting the e-liquid delivery. In this case, it is necessary to tilt the cartridge manually to balance the e-liquid.
