Vapers who switched to the light side of the vapor five or six years ago are a bit perplexed by the manufacturers who are releasing high-power devices less and less, and are focusing on the release of POD-systems. Naturally, rarely anyone in such a situation would want to be left out, but at the same time not every vaper will agree to switch to salt nicotine liquids. Especially for such vapers there have been developed sub-mods in which you can find features of both standard box-mod and POD-system. The company Vaporesso not once pleased vapers with their devices of this format, but as it turned out, the company’s engineers are constantly working, and a testament to this new interesting GEN Air 40 Pod Kit sub-mod.

General Data

Vaporesso GEN Air 40 Pod Kit is a medium sized pod mod equipped with a powerful built-in battery, running the chip Axon and designed for the installation of GTX vaporizers. The device is made in a fairly standard form factor for such devices on one side it is semicircular, on the other flat, but it has good ergonomics and sits well in the hand. Thanks to the productive chip Axon vaper will get not only 40 watts of maximum power, but also good autonomy and stable operation. The device is designed for installation of popular GTX series vaporizers, made on the grid. Vaporesso GEN Air 40 Pod Kit is available in seven colors – Dark Black, Matte Grey, Light Silver, Midnight Blue, Aurora Green, Twilight Gold and Sakura Pink.

Gen Air 40 Mod Battery Pack

It is unlikely anyone would argue about the fact that compact submods are confidently replacing many vapers traditional box mods and tanks. And company Vaporesso in the production of devices such format succeeds enough to remember their lines Target, LUX, GTX. Despite the fact that the company has released quite a lot of submods, its developers are constantly working on updating the range, and an example of this is the new device Vaporesso GEN Air 40 Pod Kit.

We have to give credit to the designers of Vaporesso, who managed to create the most convenient and practical GEN Air 40 Pod Kit. One of its features is excellent ergonomics, provided by the original shape of the device semicircular one side and flat second side. The device is quite compact 103,05 * 31,55 * 20,55 mm, and not from the heavy series weighs 67 grams. The colored side panels are decorated with unobtrusive geometric pattern, and the colors of the inserts are calm and not screaming.

The maximum power of 40 watts in the Vaporesso GEN Air 40 Pod Kit is provided by a built-in 1800 mAh battery, which is a pretty decent figure for a device of this format. The battery is charged using the USB Type-C connector located on the bottom end of the device with 2.5A current, so the time it takes to charge the battery will be relatively short.

GEN Air 40 works under the control of AXON chipset well-known to vapers, which has been used by the company in other devices more than once. Thanks to him you can not only get a full set of protections and stable operation, but also the ability to set the working voltage of 3.0/3.2/3.4/3.6 volts. It is interesting that there is a separate button for adjusting the voltage, next to which there are 4 LEDs. The device is activated by a round, slightly protruding Fire button.

Gen Air 40 Cartridge

The developers of the company paid a lot of attention to the creation of Gen Air 40 Cartridge. At first glance it looks like a standard cartridge for sub-mod, but it uses a unique technology SSS Leak Resistance full protection against leaking.

Vaporesso GEN Air 40 Pod Kit uses GTX series vaporizers, which is already well known by vapers, and there is a RBA base in the line. All of the vaporizers are on mesh, so you won’t have any flavor or bulk problems. When choosing a vaporizer or coil for the served base, you should consider that the maximum power is 40 watts, and low resistance heating elements just won’t heat up properly.

The blowing in the device is regulated quite simply on the side of the cartridge there is a slider, by moving it up and down you can set the desired draw from MTL to RDTL. The cartridge is easy to fill and you take it out of the battery box, open the silicon plug and pour 4,5 ml of liquid through a small hole.

Conclusions and impressions

Vaporesso GEN Air 40 Pod Kit was quite good and interesting, at times raising a few questions, such as why not make a simple display and varivatte, or why put a powerful enough chip in such a simple device. But the answers to these questions are known only to the developers. In any case, this sub-mod turned out to be very interesting not only visually, but also autonomous, productive and versatile.
