The Chinese company SMOKRA is an OEM/ODM manufacturer – i.e. it can produce the devices both for free and to your order, and brand them with your logos, of course, at your expense. I was sent only four devices for the test (two of one kind and two of another), and therefore there will be no taste test as such. Well, it’s not serious to consider only four flavors out of thirty possible ones. But I will elaborate on the technical implementation of these vapes.

What’s in the box

Inside the box you will find the pod itself, packed in a disposable and hermetic until opening transparent bag, and the ends to protect against possible leaks and dust will be closed with silicone plugs.

SMOKRA. Design

The appearance of SMOKRA disposables is not the most usual. Designers decided to move away from the boring round shapes and gave out two variants at once, the first of which is square, and the second is octagonal and uneven-sided. In either case, there will be a plastic flat mouthpiece on top, a plug at the bottom, under which the board with a noise sensor and controller is hidden, a little higher is the microUSB port, and in the center is the brand logo (in this case Smokra, but it can be any of yours). canadian vape shop calgary The body is made of lightweight alloy and covered with a pleasant to the touch paint, but without the soft-touch effect. The device turns on at the moment of puffing, and the LED at the bottom lights up.

Charging No Micro USB

Inside each disposable battery is a rechargeable battery containing lithium, a chemically active alkaline metal. Such batteries should not be disposed of with household waste, but should be recycled or disposed of in a special recycling center.

A frankly decent volume of liquid requires an equally capacious battery. Or a built-in charging controller, which is what they put here. The maximum current is small, only 0.3 Ampere, but it is quite enough to keep the device in working condition at the ratio of one and a half hours of charging per day of use.

Upon closer acquaintance it turned out that the vape can not only be easily charged, but also refueled if desired. The upper mouthpiece can be removed with moderate force (inside it there is cotton for condensate retention), and even below it there is a silicone seal, having removed it, you can see a synthetic filler, which holds the liquid. So you can “refill the liquid” without much trouble, as long as the coil in the center channel is not burned out (and it will be impossible to replace it without a soldering iron).

SMOKRA – filling

Further disassembly of both types of “disposable” is presented in the photo above. Here you can perfectly see not the largest batteries, almost identical boards with noise sensors and charging controllers, as well as plastic reservoirs that hold the filler with liquid.

SMOKRA. Personal impressions

A lot of liquid is good, the ability to recharge a “disposable” is great, and refilling is great in general. As a result, we got an unknown hybrid, which is very easy to use, but also not difficult to maintain (if desired). The device has the right to life and may interest potential buyers by its unpretentiousness and unusualness.
