Three Power Modes
A triple click moves between ECO, NOR and MAX. Aspire do not publish a wattage figure for any of them, so treat it as three steps rather than three numbers.
ECO is the coolest and stretches the battery furthest. MAX gives the warmest vapour and the most of it.
The Battery
2500mAh is a lot for a kit this size, and it is the headline change over the older Gotek models. Most pod kits at this size carry well under half that.
Charging is Type-C at 2A. Worth knowing before you order that Aspire do not put a cable in the box.
Screen and Airflow
The segment display shows the power level and the battery, so there is no guessing where you are. It is a simple readout rather than a full colour panel.
Airflow is a slider on the base. Close it down for a tight mouth to lung draw, open it out for a looser one.
The Build
Aluminium alloy through the body gives it weight in the hand that the plastic Gotek kits do not have. The patterned panel is part of the metal rather than a printed wrap.
At 91 x 48 x 21mm it still sits flat in a pocket. Everything sits on one face, the screen, the button and the airflow.
Pods and Compatibility
The kit ships with one Gotek V2 pod at 0.8 ohm, already fitted. UK pods hold 2ml to stay inside TPD rules, and they fill from the side.
The Gotek V2 Replacement Pod carries an upgraded mesh coil, which Aspire credit for faster heating and steadier flavour deeper into the pod. Spares come two to a pack in 2ml or the 4.5ml XL.
The bigger point is what else fits. This takes the whole Gotek pod family, not just the V2.
Refillable Gotek pods come in 0.6 and 0.8 ohm, and the prefilled ones are 1.0 ohm. That is a wide net for a kit at this price.
Fill the refillable pods with nic salts or 50/50 e-liquids. Aspire specify 50 percent VG.
Keep away from high VG shortfills at 60 percent and above. A mesh pod this size cannot wick them fast enough and you get a dry hit.
Parts Breakdown
The pod carries the coil, so there is nothing separate to change. When the flavour goes, the whole pod goes.
That keeps it simple, which is the whole point of the Gotek line. It sits alongside the Gotek X3 and the rest of our pod kits.
The ASP chipset handles the safety side. Six protections cover a six second cutoff, short circuit, low voltage, over voltage, open circuit and overheating.
Available Colours
Six finishes are made, and the patterned panel is the same across all of them.
Silver, Rose Gold, Blue, Purple, Gunmetal and Black. Each one is stocked as its own variant.
