Lost vape Ursa Mini Pod Kit

The Lost Vape Ursa Mini Pod Kit review and this is the latest in a line of pod systems from the high end Shenzen based manufacturer.

The Thelma.. sorry Thelema, boasting MTL and DTL vaping styles is one such pod kit that springs to mind. Another is the Lost Vape Orion created back in 2018, that was the first pod kit to feature a DNA chipset.

The PCTG pod is tinted but not overly so. You’ll still be able to see all of the remaining e juice without removing it which is always a huge plus in my opinion.

 

The moulded mouthpiece opening measures 5.4mm and with a height of 11.4mm is a little taller than I prefer. It kind of ruins the shapely look of this otherwise dinky little pod.

How To Install A Coil and Fill the Pod

The coils are of the plug and play variety making them very easy to install. However, there is something to keep in mind..

The air intake ports positioned on either side of the coil must remain exposed. Lost Vape has made this fool proof in that they will only fit one way.

Lost Vape was created by an adventurous group of vapers determined to create innovative and exciting ideas.

One such entrepreneur was Frank Guo. He’s the guy who established the company and responsible for the recent Lost Vape Ursa Quest Multi Kit.

Check out Flat cap Vaper’s review of that one for the full low down.

It introduced the new Quest chip, spawning five vape modes and utilizing the Ultra Boost (UB) and UB PRO range of mesh coils across two separate pod tanks.

The Lost Vape Ursa Mini Pod Kit features the Quest chip of its older sibling albeit stripped back to basics.

It’s smaller and lighter, making use of the UB Lite range of coils instead.

I think it’s time we set out on a quest of our own. To find out if it delivers on power, flavour, cloud production and battery life.

..Don’t forget to bring your packed lunch lol!

What Can We Expect From The Lost Vape Ursa Mini Pod Kit?

Two coils in the UB Lite range have been included and we can expect one to provide a MTL vape and the other a restrictive direct lung hit.

There’s very little chance of getting a warm to hot vape since the internal 1200mAh battery is only dealing with a maximum 30W output. However, when using the high resistance MTL UB Lite coil we can expect extended life to the battery.

 

The user interface looks to cater for the newer vaper with a distinct lack of sub menu’s that even the intermediate to advanced vaper may appreciate.

Judging by the 135g net weight of the device we can also expect it to be pocket or purse friendly.

The device comes in an easy to remove slip case, sitting snuggly inside a foam inlay. Squeezed in on the left is a slim rectangular box containing additional items.

• Ursa Mini Pod Kit
• 0.4ohm UB Lite L1 DL coil
• 1.0ohm UB Lite L6 MTL coil
• Type C charging cable
• User Manual
• Warranty card

There’s something worth noting…

The instruction manual comes entirely in English, so no multilingual fold out roadmaps to negotiate!

Lost Vape Ursa Mini Pod Kit – Key Features

Relatively speaking, the Lost Vape Ursa Mini Pod Kit is quite compact and lightweight which makes it a discreet and highly portable device.

To make life easier for the new vaper, the Quest chipset is able to detect the installed coil and display its resistance on the 0.69in OLED screen.

It doesn’t matter how you snap the pod into position either thanks to the 360 degree magnetic ring inside the battery.

I had to resort to using a pin (once again) when prising the silicone stopper open.

Remember this is subjective and won’t be an issue for everyone. It’s opening measures 6mm and definitely better suited to 10ml bottle nozzles.

I’ve received the standard version of the Lost Vape Ursa Mini Pod Kit, and this includes a 3ml capacity pod.

At the time of writing I could find no indication of a TPD issue but as we all know, other than a 2ml pod everything else will be identical.

It comes in two color series. The Leather series consists of Mist Rose, Crystal Cream, Dark Knight and Glitter Ocean. The Phantom series offers Phantom Red, Blue, Green and Purple.

Design and Build Quality

Lost Vape Ursa Mini Pod Kit – Battery Section

The stainless steel “H” frame gives the battery section a very solid feel.

Contouring ensures no sharp edges and the spray coated multi coloured finish looks fantastic.

but It’s not the scheme I would personally pick but it does demonstrate some pretty funky colour blending of purple at the base, fading to orange across the top.

Because The two gold plated coil contacts inside the top of the battery are spring loaded and just above these is the 360 degree magnetic contact that Lost Vape describes as “Ultra sensitive”.

..A bit like my teeth these days!
