The Kanger Subox Mini battery sticker gives the device an even more stylish look. The pass-through feature of the battery is not new, but it’s definitely nice to have. It allows you to enjoy a vaping session while your mod is charging.

This vape has a large ergonomic clicky fire button, situated just above the OLED screen. The screen itself is rather small, but it’s sure enough for the compact size of the vape.

Under the screen, you will find the plus and minus buttons. Right under the buttons, you can see the USB charger. Such location allows you to charge the device while having it stand on your desk.

At the back side of the device, you can find a 510 connector and the magnetic battery latch that pops off easily by four tiny magnets.

To activate the device, you need to press the fire button quickly five times. After this, you will see the information icons on the screen, which will tell you about the battery, wattage, voltage and resistance level of the mod.

To change the wattage, you need to tap the plus or minus buttons. Every tap will change the value by 0.1 increments. If you hold the button down, the value will change by 1 watt.

To flip the screen and get to the controls, you need to hold the plus and minus buttons at the same time. One thing you will not find in this mod is temperature control, which is for sure a disadvantage.

Subox Mini: Review of Vapor

After you set up your device and fill its tank with your favorite vape juice, you are ready to vape. It’s important to set the right wattage for optimal vapor and flavor production. What to expect? Before 30w, the vapor you get will be thin. Around 30w, the vapor will for sure be warm, flavorful and dense.

At 40-50w, the vapor will be hotter, and you will blow out huge dense clouds. The decent flavor will still be there. All in all, both the flavor and vapor quality are nothing to complain about. The mod delivers a satisfying vaping experience, provided that you got the right settings for it. The Kangertech Subox Mini manual will help you do things the right way.

A Blot on the Landscape

Just like any other product on any market, this mod has its drawbacks. There are also some issues typical to it. We believe that you need to know about them before deciding whether to get this mini mod or not.

The absence of temperature control has been already mentioned above, and it is for sure one of the most significant drawbacks of the mod. We think that the manufacturer could introduce it in the later versions.

When reading some reviews for this mod, you can come upon the leakage complaints. The thing is that the early version of the kit had a leakage problem for real. The e-liquid would come out of the air holes and make things messy.

Also, one of the Kangertech Subox Mini coils leaked on the bottom seal. The reason for it was a small metal wire that prevented complete sealing. In the current version of the mod, the Kanger Subox Mini coils do not have this problem anymore.
