Information about a possible ban on vaping appears regularly in the Internet media. But at the same time the number of vaping is not getting smaller, on the contrary – more and more smokers decide to switch to delicious and flavorful vapor. So it is not surprising that vape manufacturers try to regularly release a variety of devices, and not only functional and productive, but also as simple as possible and at the same time autonomous. The well-known company Eleaf, which operates in the vaping market for many years, not so long ago presented a fairly simple series of IORE, which successfully proved itself from a positive side. And such a success clearly pushed the developers of the company to continue it, so the light saw a fairly simple and original POD-system – Eleaf IORE Crayon Pod Kit, which will certainly interest customers.

General Information

Eleaf IORE Crayon Pod Kit is a compact POD system equipped with a powerful built-in battery, designed for interchangeable cartridges with built-in vaporizers on the grid. The device looks quite original and even a bit like a toy – a neat block of plastic with rounded edges and corners, but with pretty good ergonomics. POD-system belongs to the category of fairly simple, but it has two options for activation and a battery of good capacity, thanks to which you can get a good autonomy. The device is designed for installation of removable cartridges with 0.8 ohm grid vaporizers with good flavor transfer and moderately stiff inhalation. Eleaf IORE Crayon Pod Kit is available in five colors – gray, pink, blue, white and green.

Equipment

The device was originally designed to be quite simple, so it is packed quite simply, so in the box you can find:

– IORE CRAYON Battery Pack;

– IORE CRAYON Pod cartridge (0.8Ω);

– USB Type-C cable;

– Warranty card;

– User’s Manual.  

IORE CRAYON Battery Pack

Among quite a large (and constantly increasing) number of companies involved in the production of vape devices, Eleaf can be called an “old-timer” or “mastodon,” as it began its way back in the early days of vaping. It cannot be said that now this manufacturer is constantly at the top of the ranking, but it does not let itself be forgotten – it constantly releases new devices that always find their customers. After POD-systems became especially popular, the company began to produce devices of this format, and quite good ones. Not so long ago was launched in mass production, a series of IORE, which has already won its fans. Inspired by the success, the developers decided to expand it and presented Eleaf IORE Crayon Pod Kit – a simple and interesting device.

The design of Eleaf IORE Crayon Pod Kit immediately attracts attention, and not only by the form-factor, in which the case is made (it is a small neat bar with rounded corners and edges), but some resemblance to the toys. This impression is created after you get your hands on the device, especially since there are no questions and complaints about the ergonomics of the POD system. The device has a fairly modest size – 101 * 26 * 26 mm, and its weight (due to the fact that the production uses only plastic) is only 58 grams, so in your pocket it will not get in the way.

The power of this POD-system is provided by the built-in 1000 mAh battery, which will allow the vaper to get two or three days of work, but the exact time of battery life depends on many factors. The battery is charged using the USB Type-C connector located on the bottom end of the device with 1A current, so the full charging time will be about an hour and a half.

Eleaf IORE Crayon Pod Kit uses a fairly simple proprietary chipset that allows you to get a constant power of 15 watts. Depending on the vaper’s preference, you can activate the device with a single “Fire” button, as well as with a puff. To monitor the battery level and other events in the bottom of the device there is a small LED.

IORE CRAYON Pod Cartridge

A new cartridge was developed for the Eleaf IORE Crayon Pod Kit and features a thin round mouthpiece and a window to monitor the liquid level in the tank. The cartridge is held in the battery pack by strong magnets.

The cartridge for this device is presented in the only variant – with a built-in vaporizer on the grid with a resistance of 0.8 ohm. There is no blowing control. The developers of the device took care of the fact that refilling was as convenient as possible. To do this, you need to remove the top cap, open the plug and pour 2 ml of liquid.

Conclusions and impressions

Despite the fact that Eleaf IORE Crayon Pod Kit is actually a very simple POD system, it will definitely attract the attention of vapers with its original appearance. In addition to a certain “toyishness” the device will please you with its ease of use and maintenance, decent autonomy and good flavor transfer.
