INTRO
A compact but effective pod system kit is called ArgusZ Kit. The built-in 900mAh battery has enough power for two days of vaping. Argus Z is attractive to look at and comfortable to hold thanks to its aluminium alloy and PC finish. Amazing MTL vaping is possible with ITO atomization technology. Additionally, the cartridge has a 4-hole air entrance at the bottom, and the U-shaped airflow may increase airflow and guarantee a smooth taste. You don’t have to be concerned about leaks thanks to the multi-layer leakage-proof design. With its invisible magnetic connection mechanism, the cartridge may be changed more easily and securely. The 2ml cartridge is full-view and works with both the Argus P1 and Pod. Let’s get the Argus Z Kit and have a nice time vaping!

APPEARANCE
When placed against its older brothers, the ARGUS Z appears somewhat underwhelming. I’ll overlook it though because this kit’s goal is cheap. There are two textures on the device’s main body. The three battery indicator lights are located on the device’s top, which is made of rippling plastic. The USB-C charging connector on the kit’s back is also in this part.
The kit’s simple matte metal bottom perfectly complements the textured part. This component just reads “designed by VOOPOO” on the rear and the ARGUS Z logo on the front. The ARGUS Z has a low-cost design, but it nevertheless has a stylish appearance and excellent build quality. But given the superb build quality, we’ve come to anticipate from VOOPOO, that’s not really unexpected. It appears a tad chunkier when placed next to the ARGUS Pod. Though makes sense because larger batteries require more equipment.
BATTERY AND CHARGING
The 900mAh battery in the Argus Z is more than plenty for the 17 watts it delivers, in my opinion. I got roughly 300 puffs every charge, which was plenty for me to vape for two to three days. You can anticipate getting around the same results with the Argus Z because it just has one 0.7 pods and has fixed wattage. Though it is not specified anywhere on the Voopoo website, I would assume that it is 1A charging. I estimated it would take the Argus Z 45–50 minutes to fully charge. Not terrible, but certainly slower than the Argus P1 using a PD fast recharge.
PERFORMANCE
With the exception of a few features that increase the cost of the other kits, this kit operates just as well as the P1 and Pod. Both wattage management (like the Pod) and a sophisticated, lightning-fast charge (like the P1) are absent. Still, it vapes just as well as them despite this. Given that the battery is 100mAh larger, you could even say that it vapes just a little bit better. A single 0.7-ohm pod is included with this mod. Since I use that in both the ARGUS Pod and ARGUS P1, comparing the two was incredibly simple. Riot Bar EDTN Peach Ice Tea was my liquid of choice since, as I mentioned earlier, I vape it in my Pod and wanted to compare.
The 0.7ohm pods have a very smooth pull. I was able to RDL my Pod, and I had no trouble RLDing the ARGUS Z. The draw was almost exactly the same because I run the pod at 16 W and the Z fires them at roughly 17 W. A satisfying amount of vapour is generated. The Z and P1 both have a charging port, which is one benefit the Z has over the Pod in this regard. The charging port on the Pod is located at the bottom of the kit, thus it must be turned on its side. The Z’s charging port is located on the kit’s back, allowing it to stand upright. In any case, I’ve never had to leak with the Pod, although it’s always ideal to maintain your equipment as upright as possible.
The fact that this device only comes with one 0.7 ohm pod is the only drawback I could find. Insufficient if you like a tighter draw. The 1.2-ohm pods, however, can be purchased separately.

VERDICT
The Argus Z is a pretty basic gadget that works incredibly well. I can’t claim that I didn’t anticipate it going into this review because I already knew it would be fantastic as it employs Argus pods. It only has one pod and isn’t as fancy or programmable as the Argus P1, but it’s still a fine vaping device if you don’t care about settings.
The Argus Z only comes with the 0.7 pod, which is my primary gripe with it. That’s unfortunate because Voopoo should have also supplied the 1.2 pods with it. Of course, if you want to try something different, you can always go out and buy it individually. Check out our Argus P1 review to learn more about how that pod operates. Fill the pod with liquid, put the mouthpiece on, and you’re ready to go. The Argus Z’s strength is in how basic it is, and I have no problem recommending it to anyone looking for a superb, uncomplicated pod vape.
