There are several key milestones in the history of vaping – the emergence of “egos,” the development of performance boards, the introduction of top air, and the invention of salt nicotine. And thanks to the emergence of salt nicotine and its based liquids, vaping has changed quite a lot, since traditional tanks and box mods are not suitable for their vaping, and more compact and less powerful POD-systems are needed. Most manufacturers quickly repurposed their production for the production of devices of this format, and Nevoks is no exception – it regularly presents new devices that are in demand among vapers. Having decided to release another simple POD system, the company presented Nevoks APX S1 POD kit, which is sure to appeal to vapers who prefer salt nicotine-based liquids.
General data

The device is made in a very traditional for POD-systems execution – a small stick, to the ergonomics of which there will be no questions and complaints. The device is very easy to use and maintain, so even a novice can figure it out. POD-system is designed for installation of removable cartridges with built-in vaporizers on the grid with resistance of 0.8 and 1.2 Ohm. Nevoks APX S1 POD kit comes in nine colors, so every vaper can pick the one he likes best.

– USB Type-C cable;
– Warranty card;

The main direction of this manufacturer is POD-systems and submods, and it is safe to say that such devices are very decent. Given the fact that many vapers prefer the most simple devices, the company presented Nevoks APX S1 POD kit – a simple, reliable and compact device.
The developers have chosen a win-win form-factor for the new POD system – a compact stick with rounded corners and edges, made of aluminum alloy. The device has a very compact size – 118.6*20*10.6 mm, and weighs only 26 grams. A nice bonus can be considered the fact that the manufacturer offers the device in nine colors, both traditional and bright youth.
The Nevoks APX S1 POD kit is powered by a built-in 500 mAh battery, which will be enough for a day of autonomous work. The battery is charged via USB Type-C connector located on the bottom end of the device with 1.5A current, so the full charging time will be less than half an hour.
Nevoks APX S1 POD kit refers to the format of simple devices, so the NX chip in it automatically selects the optimal power within the range of 7-18 Watts. There are no controls, activation of the device is made by puffing. At the bottom of the device there is a LED indicator that changes its color depending on the level of battery charge.
APX S1 POD cartridge
Considering the size of the device, it is quite logical that it uses replaceable cartridges with a built-in heating element rather than replaceable vaporizers. The cartridge is held in the battery pack by magnets. The cartridge is made with the manufacturer’s innovative leak-proof technology.
The manufacturer offers two variants of cartridges for Nevoks APX S1 POD kit. Both with built-in 0.8 and 1.2 ohm grid vaporizers, so good flavor transfer is guaranteed.

To refill the cartridge you take it out of the battery box, open the silicon plug on the side and pour 2 ml of liquid in.
