Review of Vaporesso GEN S

Today we are reviewing the new GEN S Kit from Vaporesso, consisting of the NRG-S Tank and the GEN S Mod box mod, and addressed to lovers of large clouds and high power.

Packaging and accessories of the GEN S Kit

The kit is sold in a familiar package: a box made of thick cardboard, the lid of which is decorated in the colors of the selected setup and with an image of exactly what awaits you inside. On one of the side walls, signed pictograms illustrate the main advantages of your purchase, the slogan Power isn’t just for the pros. has moved to the second. canadian vape shop calgary At the bottom are: a list of contents, basic specifications of the tank and mod, batch number and a sticker with an authenticity check. To make sure that you do not have a fake, you need to scan the QR code, partially hidden under the erasable strip, which will lead to a unique verification page.

Vaporesso GEN S Kit

Here you will find the familiar pile of waste paper (my box included two instructions for checking the originality), a rather thick manual book with illustrations in several languages ​​(alas, again without Russian translation), a short cable in a rigid braid, replacement glass, sealing rings and a spare gasket for the tank filling hole. One replacement is in a sealed blister, the second is already installed in the tank.

GEN S Kit Appearance

Our kit consists of two “classic” devices: the NRG-S Tank and the GEN S Mod box mod, both devices with a 510 connector and can be purchased and used separately without any problems. Today, when the market has already been captured by disposables, pods and pod-mods (including those from Vaporesso, which produces a huge range of such stuff), it is somehow even unexpected (and even joyful!) to see such a setup in your hands. However, since the companies themselves have not stopped producing these devices, it means that there is still a great demand. In fact, both devices can only be called “new products” conditionally. But first things first.

Vaporesso GEN S Colors

Vaporesso offers its customers five colors of the GEN S kit: rose gold, midnight blue, cherry pink, lime green and matte gray. A noticeable difference from the GEN Kit, in addition to the design (primarily different colors) and the complete tank (there was an SKRR-S), is also the paintwork of the metal parts of the atomizer, which completely matches the complete mod.

All colors of the Vaporesso GEN S Kit

However, both the mod itself and the entire kit with the tank are already available in the previous seven colors, so today’s choice consists of as many as 12 options.

Impressions and conclusions

It is difficult to draw any conclusions about these devices, especially considering that both the NRG-S Tank and the GEN S mod are rather conditional “new products”. The atomizer is, by and large, a hybrid of the NRG SE and SKRR-S, from the first it received a 510 drip tip and a large selection of tasty and varied evaporators, and from the second – a huge bubble glass with a volume of 8 ml. Such a capacity for this device will definitely not be superfluous, the evaporators on the GT MESHED mesh, although they do not “drink” juice, but they consume it quite briskly. But the GEN S battery unit, which is included in the kit, is no different from GEN and could well have had the same name without the S prefix. In my opinion, five new colors are not a good reason to give an old device a new name. It seems that the manufacturer simply wanted to re-release a successful box mod, but with a new tank. By the way, it would be quite possible to make an atomizer on GTX evaporators, as it is done in the GEN NANO kit. And I would only be happy with such a decision, I also have a GTX RBA in stock (cough-cough).

I found only one drawback in the tank, which can annoy you already at the first acquaintance with the device – the unscrewing filling cap, or rather the cap that hides the slider mechanism. Not that this could be called a critical problem, it is solved simply: it is enough to tighten this connection once (in no case with pliers, but just tighten it tighter), and you can forget about it for a long time. Well, until it starts to unscrew again. But the evaporator … Damn, guys, put both replacements in blisters! The smell of glue disappeared pretty quickly, but it was very pungent, and at first it seemed that it would never disappear. Fortunately, by the end of the full refill, either the “aroma” itself went away, or I simply stopped feeling it. The GEN-S, which I really liked last time and simply sank into my soul, has the following disadvantages: a slightly loose cap (again, if you don’t move it on purpose, it won’t slide in your palm) and a connector with a bronze coating. It will probably get scratched, especially if you use something other than the included NRG-S, which has a plastic ring on the bottom platform. Otherwise, the kit is great, although it may seem irrelevant to someone in today’s reality, when the passion for large amounts of steam has practically disappeared and completely different devices are actively promoted. The GEN S Kit will be especially appreciated by fans of low-impedance windings, who lack support for a resistance of 0.05 Ohm, the AXON board can work with a completely record-breaking 0.03 Ohm.
