The Joyetech EGO Pod AST is an update to the existing EGO pod kit.
Let’s have a closer look to see what is different with this version…
What Is New About The Joyetech EGO Pod AST…
You may be thinking this preview is a bit of “Deja Vu” but there are some changes to the AST version.
The most obvious alteration is to the e-liquid viewing window which has increased in size for this version.
The second noticeable change is to the size of the kit – the original EGO pod was 19x98mm whereas the AST version is taller at 19x103mm.
Another big update is to the type of coils used – this has a fixed coil pod – meaning when the coil performance has deteriorated over time the plastic pod is discarded and replaced.
The coil used is the new AST mesh which stands for Austenitic Stainless Steel which apparently gives a longer coil lifespan and greater flavour.
Joyetech specify the coil life is apparently 20 refills on the AST coil compared to the 7 refills stated for the original version.
As for the actual device this has no adjustments or buttons to contend with – you simply inhale on the mouthpiece and a sensor will trigger the device to fire up.
The Avatar IC 1.0 chipset is the same as found in the original and provides many user protections to help keep you safe.
Inside the device is a 1000mAh battery which charges using the micro USB port in around 1.5hours.
An LED indicator light is provided but there is no mention of what this actually displays – i.e. battery charge level etc?
The pod is refillable via the side fill port and will hold up to 2ml of your own e-liquid.
There are 4 colour options to choose from: Sapphire Blue, Fuchsia Pink, Jungle Green and Metal Black.
