Yocan Kodo Review: Tiny But Powerful Box Mod
Yocan Kodo is the true definition of don’t judge a book by its cover because it is one of the tiniest yet most powerful 510 thread batteries the industry has to offer. Despite its compact design, this device is loaded with numerous features including a powerful battery, safety functions, as well as stylish craftsmanship in different colors to pick from. And even though this box mod doesn’t have a Type-C charging port, it charges quickly so it’s ready for use in no time.
Quick Review About Yocan Kodo
Yocan Kodo is a device that you may underestimate at first sight, I did. But I was blown away to discover how powerful it is when I gave it a try. Here are some of its pros and cons:
Pros
Cons
Expected Upgrading
- Compact and portable design
- Versatile to accommodate almost all cartridges
- Simple design makes for ease and convenience of use
- High-quality craftsmanship for optimal longevity
- Stylish and minimalist with a clean look
- The battery cannot last a whole day of vigorous vaping. However, the quick-charging feature makes up for it.
Even though Yocan Kodo works just fine, it could use some upgrading in the charging system. This device could use a Type-C charging port, unlike the USB charging port, since most vapes today are Type-C chargeable. I think this upgrade in the charging system will not only offer convenience but also faster charging.
My General Take On Yocan Kodo Box Mod
Yocan Kodo vape device is so tiny that I can put this unit in my palm with ease. It looks very stylish and modern out of the package. This mod is available in white, black, blue, and red colors to choose from. It has a decent design with some branding on the top and a Micro-USB charging port at the bottom. Featuring just one button, I find this battery very simple to use. All I have to do is vary the intensity of the clicks to turn it on and off, select the heat level, or turn on the preheating mode.
Features Of Yocan Kodo Box Mod
To give further insights into this vape mod, our team identified some of the features that make it powerful. Let’s take a look, shall we?
Compact Design And Aesthetics
With a dimension of 55mm x 17.5mm x 20mm, Yocan Kodo is a tiny vape device that fits discretely in the palm. This compact size makes it easy to slide into my pockets for use on the go. This mod is equipped with a hanging hole that lets me attach it to my keychain for easy access or portability. This device has solid craftsmanship in great colors that I find very pleasing. In addition, it comes with 3 LED light indicators on the side that eliminate the guesswork during use.
Quick Charging And Fast Preheating
Since Yocan Kodo is small, it charges very quickly in just about 30 minutes. What I like most about this device is that it allows me to vape even while it is charging without any worries. It comes with a Micro-USB port and cable to allow for efficient and convenient charging without a fuss. As if that’s not enough, Kodo boasts a 10-second preheating function. The preheating function is unique and not a common feature with regular e-liquid devices.
To activate this battery, simply click the power button twice to heat the material for 10 seconds and then it turns off automatically. However, you can press the power button twice rapidly if you want it to stop quicker than 10 seconds. I’ve tested this feature with my regular e-liquid atomizer, and I didn’t find it very useful. I think it will work well for vaping concentrates and medicinal-type e-liquids found in dispensaries.
Ease And Safe of Use
Yocan Kodo stands out for its ease of use, thanks to the advanced heating options. The advanced heating options include a quick preheating function as well as 3 heat settings. These settings are displayed on LED light indicators to eliminate guesswork: 1 light indicates low, 2 indicates medium, and 3 indicates maximum heat setting. These settings make it easy to enjoy maximum vapor and flavor even for beginners. I love the fact that each setting guarantees a great and enjoyable experience, allowing me to customize the experience. Besides, this device is loaded with safety features such as short circuit protection, low voltage protection, and a 15-second cut-off for you to use with peace of mind.
A Powerful Battery Supports Great Performance
Equipped with a 400mAh built-in battery, Yocan Kodo boasts one of the largest batteries for a device of its size. This goes to show that regardless of its small footprint, Kodo is pretty powerful and can support great performance. Given its size, this battery cannot sustain an entire day of intense vaping. However, it is perfect for short one-off vaping sessions. It is built with a versatile 510 connection at the top that can support most cartridges on the market for optimal flexibility. What’s more, it seems heavy-duty and well-made without any burrs on the thread, suitable for connecting any tank of your preference.
