510 Vapor Zeus Dual Mode - Device Only

Ill have to say that the draw on this model is amazing. I used to smoke cigars and this thing definitely replicates the heavy cloud that a fine cigar gives you. The zeus is actually the model that helped me quit smoking cigarettes and cigars and with the selection of flavors you get from this site... Ill never go back. ^_^

Greetings and salutations, allow me to share my experiences with the Vapor Zeus Dual Mode starter kit. I bought this kit months ago, probably last September or October after my yearnings for a longer more flavorful vape brought me to V4L. After searching the pages herein my gaze settled on the Vapor Zeus, I wasn't sure weather I wanted an automatic or manual type battery, so, I bought the best of both worlds. The only way to describe the Vapor Zeus Dual Mode battery is...incredibile! The nice things about the XL battery, at least for me is the fact that I would get at minimum 2 days..2 full days of heavy vaping. Also, the idea of the passthrough feature was intriguing to me. I could connect my cable to the wall adaptor, plug in an enjoy vaping while at the same time charging my battery.

Another feature that I liked with this setup, was the variety of different cartomizers and tanks one can attach to this battery. You get a 6ml dual coil tank on there and you literally vape for days..I mean I could get 3-5 days on a 6ml tank, and I am a heavy vaper. The Smileomizers are nice, you can mix and match your favorite colors to get a really funky look, or do just a basick browm/black combo and you have your very own e=cigar, a fact that was not lost upon me as I used to smoke cigars.

This is a very durable product, and probably even after all the drops my battery suffered was still going strong. Alas, it was one evening while enjoying a soothing soak in my hot tub, my wife was just about to get in and...horror of horrors...my wife accidently knocked my Vapor Zeus XL into the 101 degree water. We quickly retrieved the battery, wiped and dried it off to the best of our ability. I knew that this was the possible end of my beloved e-cigar. I had dried it thoroughly, let it set under my lamp until bed time . The next morning, the lamp came on and my Vapor Zeus XL battery laid patiently. I would at various times through out the day rotate my Vapor Zeus XL battery, after a week of patiently making sure it was thoroughly dry I plugged the Vapor Zeus battery into the charger and waited. After 24 hours with out any significant change the light never changed from red to green indicating a full charge. I figured...well didn't think it would survive, but had to try. I did let it sit on my desk, and after a week, thought well let me see what happens if I try and charge it again. What really surprised me was...it took and held a charge! Wow V4L products are durable and after a couple hours put my favorite tank on and was a happy camper. I was deluding myself though, deep down I knew that batteries and water do not mix. Finally about a month ago my much loved and often abused Vapor Zeus would neither charge nor could I however much I tried was able to vape from that battery again. This was about a month ago that the battery died on me, and the accidental bath happened in the first week or so of January. Guess I got another 3 months of use out of what I thought to be a death blow for the Vapor Zeus XL battery. I don't recommend dunking your Vapor Zeus or any of V4L's battery products in water, but I do know for a fact that mine was used and abused and kept on till the very end. Yes, I would recommend the V4L Vapor Zeus Dual Mode Starter Kit...in any size you would like, great products, maybe at some point I can again use what I consider a simply superbly built product. Thank you all for taking the time to read my product review..may God Bless.

Simply amazing how great this works. Massive clouds of vapor all day off same charge and tank. Charges up fast. I used to be a pack a day smoker for about 8 years, and I received this on a Saturday, and by Monday, I have absolutely no desire to smoke a real cig ever again. Thanks Vapor4life for this! You are lifesavers whether they let you say it or not!!!

All I can say is.... SWEET! The cigar version looks awesome and sleek (not like other clunky mods I've had), does NOT glow at the tip (more stealthy), and hits like a charm! Produces clouds of vapor and a satisfying throat hit both in auto and manual mode. I've tried TONS of mods (lambo, lava tube, vamo, zmax, eGo twist, K100) and this one outshines them all due to its' simplicity, performance, and look!

I received my Zeus Dual-mode 1300mah in the mail just a little while ago. I immediately filled the smileomizer, and was off to the vaping olympics (in my mind.) OMG! The product was labeled with the word, "WOW" all over it. And to be honest, that is the only word I can use to truly describe this thing! WOW! It is THAT GOOD! I am a satisfied customer. I will be buying more from Vapor4Life as everything about the company and the products that I have heard up til now have all been completely true! WOW! #BeastMode

OH MY GOD ! ! ! This battery is so good you have to spell it out. OMG just doesn't do it justice. This battery lasts a solid 16 HOURS. I vape just about all the time and NEVER, EVER have I had a battery last like this. At one point I tried another company with the promise that their battery would last 2 to 3 days. HA. Not even 1 day. Shortly after this V4L came out with the Zeus battery. I have been with V4L for many years. Got my first kit on a Saturday and never looked back. Not 1 cigarette since and I had been smoking for over 50 years. WOW! I have always been impressed with V4L products. Their customer service is exceptional, personnel friendly, helpful and always - always answered any questions. The only down-side was that I would go through 2 to 3 batteries a day. Anyway, when V4L came out with the Zeus for approx. $100.00 I was skeptical, boasting of a long use time but with a much larger price tag. Eventually, and with a good coupon code, I decided to throw caution to the wind and give it a try. WOW!!! 16 Hours a day, every day, and a short charge time (USB on computer)! V4L you did it !

Here's what happened for me buying this. I was a two-pack a day smoker for 20 years. I recently saw both my mother and a close friend go completely "digital" with cigarettes. I researched and saw all the government warnings on how the e-cig is not a smoking cessation product. Well, then how have myself and two others been able to put those nasty cigarettes down for GOOD? I won't answer that, I know V4L has standards it has to abide by, but being a heavy smoker, I researched all I could and decided to give the ZEUS XL dual mode start package a try. It took some getting used to; honestly it made me cough a lot the first hour or so.. but once I got used to it, especially in the last couple of weeks, I simply have not wanted another nasty cigarette again. I tried an analog cigarette about a day after vaping, AND IT WAS TERRIBLE. Now, I can smell people around me who have recently smoked, and it's just awful. If your curious about the performance of the Zeus, well how about this: I charge it overnight, and fill a smileomizer before going to bed, AND I CAN VAPE ALL DAY LONG. And I do.. non-stop, AT WORK! The battery NEVER dies, the smileomizer lasts all day, with few exceptions. Another thing to note, for most of you smokers who think you'll have to get something very, very "tobacco" flavored to start, and that's good thinking, HOWEVER, as soon you will start to actually taste things again, and you'll want something other than tobacco flavors. Hands down the best health decision and investment I have made for myself as an adult. Try this product NOW..

When my Zeus first arrived, I don't know why, but I wasn't expecting much out of it. Maybe not much more than something to play with or a conversation starter. After filling the smileomizer and cranking it up, I did indeed actually smile to myself.

I love the mushy soft tip, the perfect draw, robust flavor production, and huge clouds of vapor.

As a 0-nic puffer, I was looking for something that I could enjoy as a cigar hassle-free. The Vapor Zeus fits the bill. The quality of both the battery and the smileomizer is top-notch, and with the cigar finish it looks great sitting out on the table :)

All that said, I wish my buying experience was better. It took quite a while for V4L to send out my order, and they weren't the friendliest people when I called. Doesn't detract from the product, but better service would make me more likely to recommend V4L to a friend.

My only regret in life is picking up my first cigarette. I was hooked from day one of a 20 year battle. I've tried everything from Chantix to Blues. After purchasing my Zeus, I've never looked back. Honestly, I've never even thought of smoking another cigarette! I'm in awe of how easy its been to just walk away from smoking. I'm looking forward to adding new flavors to my arsenal. Thanks for a great product!

Ebullient! The best word to describe my reaction to the mighty Zeus. I've been smoking heavily for 45 years and tried every cessation method without success. And now the Australian government has raised the tax on cigarettes so that a pack of 20 smokes cost about $20. At $1.00 for each cigarette, the Govt. has succeded in making them unaffordable. Good on 'em.
After extensive research online, I chose the Zeus Dual Mode Starter Kit to enter the world of vaping. I had a lot riding on this and anxiously checked the mail daily. Finally, on the thirteenth day it arrived.
My first toke was a revelation, I really enjoyed it and got a great hit (36mg of course). My partner took three puffs and had to lie down (poor little snowflake). I worked out how to use the prefilled cartomizers (I ordered lots of Sampler Packs), loaded up a Smilomizer with Traditional Tobacco Wow Juice, and played with the different Tips I received.
Well, it's been five days now and I've reduced my cigarette consumption from over 50 a day to about 5-6. I really enjoy trying the different flavours. Thank you for making a product that made the transition from smoking to vaping so easy.

I have used e-cigs for over two years now, starting out with locally available ones to ordering from the net. I found V4L about a year and a half ago and been purchasing from them ever since. I bought the Vapor Zeus to get more battery life and that is just what it gives. I can use a battery all day while out on the road for my job. I bought three of them so far and I like them a lot better than other e-cigs I bought. I also have Vapor Titans that I use at home while my Zeus' charge.

i've been using it for a while now and i love it i took it to decay of nations a 3 day paintball event the biggest event in california i let people there try it and they said it was the best vapor hit they ever had people with 200 to 300$ vapor cigs love my vapor zeus

I have been vaping for about 3 1/2 years and tried just about everything. I have been using my Zeus for 1 1/2 months now and love it. Most of the juices I use work well at 5V. Couple juices that don't do as well at 5V but with those I still use a smileo on mt DAV battery and turn the voltage down slightly.

A great device that's simple and works well.

The DAV and zeus are both great batteries, I have both, I do prefer the zeus, but been vaping a while and like a stronger vape and like the faster charging with pass through with the zeus, but of course with the zeus you are stuck at 5 volts, which ever you have chosen, sure you won't be disappointed

I've been vaping for 3yrs(in may). I started with V4L and I wanted to thank them for making the transition from tobacco to ecigs EASY!! They always start with the best quality stuff but that doesn't mean things will stay that way. I will say that things may have come around.
Now the ZEUS! They REALLY hit it out of the park with this one. I've tried everything out there and the ZEUS is the BOSS!! This is the BEST ecig I've ever used. KISS, keep it simple stupid, and that's just what they did. I could go on all day. All I'll tell you is BUY ONE! The easiest, best flavor, most vapor anywhere . The only problem I've had is not being able to get smilos. these things are HOT so if you see it on the website BUY IT cause it may not be there in an hour. ENJOY!!

I have a few kits that now are sitting tucked away in my drawer thanks to the Vapor Zeus!

This kit is definitely a game changer!

Battery life is superb. I've gone up to 2 days without a charge.

Vapor is superb. Nice puffs from this bad boy! Vaping at its finest.

I have been using v4l products for almost 4 years now and this product is by FAR the best one I have ever used! Of course, it is a very large unit however it is totally worth the size! The vapor production, throat hit and flavor are out of this world! I have never been so impressed with an ecig before. All of my juices taste sooo much better on the zeus. It puts all of my other ecigs to shame. Do not waste your time on any other ecigs because the zeus is truly the best. Worth the money! Trust me.
Excellent job with this product v4l. You have found a real winner with the zeus...now lets try to figure out how to make it a little bit more pocket friendly ;-)
5 out of 5 stars!!

See all of my reviews for many of the electronic cigs I've already tried - so you don't have to.

Really Lovin' the ZEUS! at....

Just buy this. I have tried every single battery and wasted so much money. This for smokers will make you (switch). For vape lovers, WOW is all I have to say! I have the large and small now because I like to switch out flavors. If you read this review, this battery took forever to create and there is nothing close to it anywhere on the market. It is the Rolls Royce of E-cigs. Don't think or search, just buy this and it will be the best investment ever!

Mr.Milin went the extra mile on this mod...I can't say that I have been as impressed since they introduced sliced bread when I was a kid! I've been a "dyed in the wool" manual person since I discovered the difference, so I was VERY surprised to find that I use Zeus mostly in "auto" mode. I received this little beauty about a week ago...and, to be honest, I wasn't expecting to be blown out if my chair with my vape...but I was! The Zeus will definetely spoil you...and you won't be able to return to any of your other APVs! I could "make do" without my Zeus everyday...but I wouldn't LIKE it! You NEED one!

This is by far the BEST device I have ever used for vaping. I used to smoke cigars and have to say this is almost JUST like it. (well except that I use a combo of strawberry and vanilla juice, lol)
I get tons of vapor from it, and like that it lasts me forever before I have to recharge it. I just want to say thank you to V4L for creating such a perfect ecigg. If you're looking for something to work for you then you should get this one.
Oh, also its really cool that you can switch from auto mode to manual. You just click the button 5 times and it switches. - WOW, how cool is that. :)

Warning: I can be a long-winded SOB at times, and this is going to be one of those times. There will be a review in here somewhere, but to give you a good idea of where I am coming from in my review, I feel it is necessary to give you some background. This will not be a tech-heavy review, I couldn't give it justice in that area. For the tech-side of stuff, I suggest going to the V4L forum and looking up Morandir, I’m sure he will cover that better than anyone can! This review will be from a somewhat novice mod-user's perspective. I promise to get a video review up soon as well, so if you don't like to read long posts, you can always wait for the movie!

Those of you who know me on the forum know that, compared to most of you, I am still a novice vaper. I started my vaping journey in mid-December of last year. Through the encouragement and sound advice of one of my closest friends, I endeavored to make the switch from analogs to vaping, and I jumped in with both feet! My first experience with vaping was using the OMG All Day mod with a 6ml tank full of 24mg WOWbacco and a 1.5ohm carto. It quite literally blew my mind. I had no idea that the flavor, enjoyment, and satisfaction of puffing on my beloved (and very expensive) cigars could be replaced so completely with an e-cig-type device...

Like all of my hobbies (most of which could be considered "vice"), once my initial interest is piqued, I researched the heck out of it. I dove into this and other forums with a voracity some may consider a mild madness. I started ordering tanks, pre-filled cartos, and e-liquids. I then got my wife hooked, and because she likes them, ordered stick batteries in manual and auto. I back-tracked from the OMG in search of a more "stealthy" and compact unit, but found the stick batteries lacked the vapor production necessary to satisfy my cigar-minded cravings. I even remember posting somewhere on the forum that I wished V4L would come out with a more "cigar" like mod with a drip tip I could "bite and gnaw on". You know how it is when you switch from analogs: you are in search of something which most closely matches the tactile feel and "full" experience of your old analog choice, not just the vapor production and throat-hit...So I went back to my OMG, and I still do love it.

Then, by chance, I entered a V4L contest and won a Dial-A-Volt. To be fair, I don't think I would have ordered a DAV on my own. At the time, I just didn't get the whole "variable volt" scene. However, when it did arrive, I decided to give the DAV a fair shake, and I'm glad I did! I absolutely fell in love with it, (I think I may have mentioned this once or twice here on the forum...) and much like my experience with the OMG, I was convinced that NOTHING could top the DAV. Then there was the Auto DAV...and again the pattern repeated itself: Get new mod; love new mod; become convinced that nothing can be greater than new mod; get new-new mod, rinse and repeat...

Then, one day I got a vape-mail package that, yet again, blew my freaking mind! I remember opening each little box and saying over and over again in a most reverent whisper: "Wow!" "Wow!" "Wow!" I won't bore you with the details, but it went on like that for at least the first 15 minutes...The first thing that I noticed was the quality of the device. This is nothing new where V4L is concerned. One look at the OMG or DAV lineup and you know that these mods are well-built, quality machines.

The next thing that caught my attention (and held it…and still holds it) was the drip-tip. The DT which comes with the Zeus’ cartos is, IMHO, (and speaking from a purely cigar-obsessed perspective) revolutionary. The exterior is a firm and yet pliable silicone. The interior is a solid metal piece onto which the silicone outer shell firmly seats. This combination lends the tip the unique ability to be comfortably bitten upon and held in the teeth. Into the Zeus’ DT, V4L has engineered a most near-perfect replica of the experience of biting on my favorite stogie. And for that I tip my hat to you, good sirs and madams!

Moving right along, we come to one of a pair of the coolest features which the Zeus so rightfully touts: the dual mode switch. The Zeus takes away the age old dilemma: “Do I get an auto or manual battery?” With the Zeus one no longer has to choose. The conveniently located button high on the battery toward the carto, when pressed 5 times converts this lovable machine from manual to auto, and if you like, back again. The button is also back lit with a subtle LED. (mine is green).

The second in the “coolest features” category for the Zeus is the pass-thru port on the end of the battery. Just as one no longer has to decide “auto” or “manual”, one no longer has to settle for a stick batty PT. When plugged in via the USB/PT cable, the Zeus is not only acting like a PT, but is being charged as well. I use the PT cable when sitting in my favorite EZ chair working on my computer (as a matter of fact, I’m vaping on my Zeus in PT/Auto mode right now…) and when I’m driving down the road.

Want all day battery life? You Got It! This thing will literally go all day! I am talking 9-12 hours to the “blink” depending on your vaping style! The full Auto version does have a very small, and very surreptitious white LED on the tip just above the USB/PT port, and while charging the LED is red; when charged the LED is green. Long charging time? Forget About It!! You can plug the Zeus into your PT/USB cable and from the “blink” it only takes 3.5 to 4 hours to charge! Don’t have your USB adapter? No problem, just screw the Zeus onto the Slim Line Charger. This method will take 12 to 16 hours depending, though.

The cartos that come with the Vapor Zeus are the “Smileomizer” (affectionately known as Smileos”) 3.5ml, Single Coil, 2.5ohm cartos, and on the 5v Zeus battery, they kick like the proverbial mule. The vapor production is nothing short of amazing. When I was testing the Zeus for the very first time, I was puffing away at the kitchen table and my wife came into the kitchen; she almost lost it, accusing me of going back to those “damned ol’ stogies!” due to the tremendous volume of vapor hanging in the air all around my head! All the flavors I have tried (as of this post over 20 flavors) interact well with the Zeus cartos, and the 5 volt output.

I have been intentionally somewhat abusive to my Zeus (while watching the sky for errant lightning bolts) to see how the unit will hold up. Over the past 28+ days I have dropped it, sat upon it, carried it in my pocket, soaked the cartos in 100 proof, washed them and spun them dry. I have filled them and refilled them I don’t know how many times…and the Zeus works as good tonight as it did right out of the box. I keep waiting and dreading the day when one of the 2 cartos I was sent starts to leak or burn out on me, but it has not yet happened. Thank Zeus!

The Vapor Zeus, as of now, comes in two colors: the cigar wrapper we are familiar with from the Titan Soft Touch series, and matt black (also Soft Touch). I love this feature as well.

What don’t I like about the Zeus? I really can’t point to anything just yet that I don’t like about this unit. I foresee some possible problems with the (my beloved) drip tip. I am concerned about the longevity of the silicone exterior; however, I am a heavy gnasher (an actual word? Sure, if I say it is…) and have not yet begun to wear it out. Also, I would like to see some sort of cover or “plug” for the USB port on the end. I carry my Zeus in my shirt or side pants pocket and lint buildup and foreign debris has become an issue. For those worried about the weight of the Zeus: don’t be. It is comparable to the Auto DAV with a 3.5ml tank.

My overall view of this unit is hands down “Two Thumbs UP!” It’s my go-to for all-day vaping. I have a hard time setting it aside to enjoy my new Auto DAV! My advice to you is to definitely get one of these as soon as it becomes available. Steve Milin’s vision of the supreme ruler of all mods has truly come to fruition! Well done, sir!
