Salt nicotine and liquids based on it are perceived by vapers in different ways. Someone is skeptical about them, preferring traditional options, considering nicotine salts a generation of the chemical industry. And someone rejoiced in the fact that you can literally in a few puffs to satisfy nicotine hunger and do not get at the same hard trothit, which is inevitable when vaporizing strong liquids based on freebase nicotine. In any case, salt nicotine based liquids have become very popular, but to vaporize them you need closed type systems or POD-systems, mass produced by many manufacturers. GeekVape has not pleased vapers with compact POD-systems for quite a long time, but the company did not hold out and presented its POD-stick variant 1FC Pod Kit, which will definitely find its buyers.
General information
Geekvape 1FC Pod Kit is a compact POD-system, equipped with a medium capacity battery, equipped with a simple chipset and designed to use replaceable cartridges with built-in vaporizers for vaping liquids on saline nicotine. The new device is made in the form of a small compact stick, and its lines clearly trace the characteristic lines of the Aegis series. The device with all its simplicity is equipped with switching the voltage supplied to the vaporizer coil and a battery that charges in just 15 minutes. The device is designed to use interchangeable cartridges with built-in vaporizers with resistance of 0.8 and 1.2 ohms. Buy Geekvape 1FC Pod Kit can be purchased in five colors silver, silver-blue, gunmetal, rainbow and black.
Accessories
The manufacturer did not become somehow special to complete the new POD-system, as it belongs to a fairly simple series, so in the box the vaper will find:
Aegis 1 FC mod battery pack;
Aegis One Pod 0.8 ohm cartridge (pre-installed);
Aegis One Pod 1.2 ohm cartridge;
USB Type-C cable;
User’s Manual.
Aegis 1 FC mod battery pack
To be honest, it is quite unusual to see a POD system from GeekVape company, which has always been famous for its box mods and tanks. In fact, the company had only one full-fledged POD-system Aegis Pod in its assortment, regarding which we can confidently say that it did not have the popularity as the manufacturer expected. Deciding to conquer the niche, the company decided to release a POD-system, which will be able to compete with devices of this format of other manufacturers Geekvape 1FC Pod Kit (according to the new tradition from the name omitted the word Aegis).
Geekvape 1FC Pod Kit is made in the usual for many vapers stick format, and when you look at it closely it becomes clear that it is one of the representatives of the Aegis family, but only made in the form of an oblong stick with a characteristic eco-leather insert. The device is quite small 116*22 mm, so it won’t be noticeable in a shirt or jacket pocket. The design of the device is quite modest, without extra frills and additional decoration, except for the GeekVape inscription on the side surface.
Power Geekvape 1FC Pod Kit is realized by means of a built-in battery with a capacity of 550 mAh, which is quite enough to get autonomy for one or two days.Charges the battery with a current of 1A using the USB Type-C connector, located on the bottom end of the device. If the manufacturer is to be believed, the time to fully charge the device is 15 minutes.
Geekvape 1FC Pod Kit belongs to quite simple POD-systems, but the manufacturer has provided the possibility of changing the voltage supplied to the vaporizer by pressing the fire button three times you can set the working power. The device is activated both by pressing the single fire button and by puffing. The battery level is indicated by the number of three LEDs burning at its base.
Aegis One Pod cartridge
It is quite logical and natural that the Geekvape 1FC Pod Kit uses replaceable cartridges with a built-in vaporizer, as the size of the device is quite modest.
GeekVape offers two variants of cartridges with resistance of 0.8 and 1.2 ohms, both on standard spirals and designed for a tight cigarette puff. There is no adjustment in the device.
To refill the cartridge, you need to remove the flat mouthpiece, and pour 2 ml of liquid into a small hole. It is recommended to use vials with a thin metal spout, as the filling hole is really small.
Conclusions and impressions
We can’t say that the Geekvape 1FC Pod Kit is capable of surprising vapers with anything, but the fact that it came out of GeekVape’s lab is nothing short of amazing. The device is not as simple as it seems at first glance, as it has power adjustment and two types of cartridges, so it will be perfect for vaping salt nicotine liquids.
