The Aegis Mini 2 has a distinctive look that vapers will immediately associate with GeekVape. The combination of sturdy and robust metal elevated with touches of cushioned material provide a rich look to the device. It is available in a variety of colour options, with the tank colour coordinated to suit the M100 mod.
The cushioned grip on the back of the kit makes the Aegis Mini 2 very comfortable to carry. Plus, the button positions are ideally located for easy setting adjustments with one hand. All the need to know vape settings are displayed on a clear 1.08inch colour screen.
Performance
Like other devices from GeekVape, the Aegis Mini 2 has an IP68 rating designed to handle the elements. This durability provides protection against water and dust as well as shock resistance. An A-lock is subtly located on the side of the Aegis Mini 2 and adds an extra layer of protection. When activated the A-lock will prevent the device from accidentally firing when carrying the kit in a bag or pocket. It also prevents the settings from being adjusted so vapers don’t need to worry about the mode or output wattage changing accidentally. Simply deactivate the A-lock when you want to get back to vaping by sliding the switch.
The GeekVape Aegis Mini 2 is powered by an integrated 2500mAh battery. This allows for an output wattage of up to 100W which can be adjusted to suit personal preference. USB-C charging means this kit to be recharged quickly and is located under a protective cover at the top of the mod. This ensures no dust or water can get into the charging port.
This device uses the new Z Nano 2 tank which is designed to offer a quality sub-ohm vape within a compact tank. A top-to-bottom airflow system on the Z Nano 2 tank is designed to offer a slimmer build while still offering leak resistance.
Ease Of Use
The top fill system on the tank allows the Aegis Mini 2 to be refilled without removing the tank from the device. Plus, the B series coils for this device are push fit making it easy to install or swap out. The location of the charging port means the device can be stood upright and can be monitored easily while waiting for the battery to fully charge. The crisp colour screen on the Aegis Mini 2 is easy to navigate using the buttons below and displays all the important settings. The kit also automatically detects the coils resistance when in smart mode to adjust the power accordingly and prevent the coils from burning.
Price
The Aegis Mini 2 costs £49.99 at The Electronic Cigarette Company. Compared to other devices that offer similar power this is slightly more expensive. However, the high-quality build, premium finish and durability justify the price. Also, when looking at other Aegis kits this is good value for the updated hardware.
Target Audience
The GeekVape Mini 2 utilises a 0.2ohm coil designed for direct-lung vaping. It performs best at 50-58W and when used with high VG e-liquid such as Nasty Juice Short Fill Cushman Series it produces thick clouds of vapour. It doesn't just cater to cloud chasers, the 0.6ohm coils are suitable for both DL and MTL vaping between 15-25W.
Experienced Vapers will find the Aegis Mini 2 easy to operate. However, those who have just begun making the switch from smoking should go for a disposable vape or a starter kit. Going for an advanced kit as a new vaper can make the transition from cigarettes more difficult, whereas a simpler kit can help to ease you into vaping.
Verdict
Overall this is a very nice step up from the original Aegis Mini. The larger battery and high output wattage are clear upgrades. Plus, the materials and colour screen give it a modern face lift. Vapers who are looking to upgrade from a previous GeekVape Aegis Mini device should definitely consider this kit.
