Are you tired of cycling through various starter kits and replacement parts?
If you’re looking for a more advanced MOD that can keep up with you or if you simply want a new MOD the Apollo VTube 5.0 kit to find may be just what you’re looking for.
In this review we’ll be taking a closer look at it…
- Large, sturdy tube MOD device providing all the power you need and more
- Excellent battery life
- Digital display shows information on battery life, wattage, resistance, and more
- Practically unbeatable in terms of vapor volume
APOLLO VTUBE 5.0
This MOD features an 18650 battery inside the VTube casing.
This gives them much more freedom to swap out the battery as it loses its charge over time.
The display screen shows you the battery life, puff count, wattage, voltage, and atomizer resistance.
The VTube 5.0 can handle resistances as low as 0.2 ohms and fires up to 50W. Unlike a mech mod this is regulated power.
Keep in mind that higher voltage and low ohms create more heat. Depending on the e-liquid you’re using this will usually translate to more vapor and, depending on the coil, a stronger and better flavor.

PHAZER SUB-OHM TANK
The Phazer sub ohm tank is a big improvement compared to most of the tanks Apollo have been included with their previous versions.
It’s an ultra-modern 3.4ml tank with a stainless steel inner tube and clear glass outer tube, easy to take apart and reassemble, which also makes it fairly easy to clean.
You’ll find slots in the side that allow for adjustable airflow. I found it best when it was fully open – this also helps to produce larger clouds.
The tank is solidly built and I’ve not had any leaking issues with it in the month I’ve vaped with it.
The only gripe I have with the tank is that it’s bottom-fill only. Having a bottom fill is not the worst thing in the world, but it makes life that little bit more inconvenient.
Most tanks of today allow easy top-fill and in some cases bottom fill as well. Fortunately, since it does take 3.4ml of e-juice, you shouldn’t find yourself filling it up too frequently.
Fortunately the VTube 5.0 is threaded for 510’s or EGO clearomisers. So if you really don’t like the fact that this tank is bottom-fill or simply want to swap out the tank, the option is there for you.
CARRY CASE
You can keep your device on hand without fear of losing the components with this convenient case. Personally, I didn’t use it. But it’s there if you want to and it could be handy if you was going away – I just haven’t had the need to.
BATTERY DETAILS
At 2500mAh, this removable battery blows most other 18650 batteries out of the water. It should last at least a day, depending on the power and frequency of use.
There’s also a Trustfire Dual 18650 wall charger with no USB cord, so plan to charge overnight instead of on the go.
There aren’t many kits that include a full 18650 charging kit, so this is a bit plus since you won’t have to purchase a charger for your 18650 battery.
E-LIQUID OPTIONS
Choose between 10 flavors, with 0-12mg of nicotine. At the rate this device burns through e-liquids (especially at sky-high wattages), plan on ordering extra bottles sooner or later.
PRICE & SHIPPING CHARGES
Currently retailing for £115.95, the Apollo VTube 5.0 is by no means the cheapest mod out there.
This is a nice MOD, it has a solid build, but on the whole I think it’s too expensive.
Yes it comes with a tank, and yes it comes with an external charger and some e-liquid, and overall it is a good quality kit, but it’s still a bit too much to ask for in my opinion.
We can help you with a discount code on this that will get you 15% off.
This brings the price of this kit to under £100. For this price, I think it’s a much more viable purchase since you won’t have to buy anything else to get going.
Since Apollo offer free shipping on all orders over £30, you won’t have to add on any extra costs to this kit, thank goodness!
WARRANTY & GUARANTEE
Apollo offers a limited lifetime warranty, which replaces certain defective products indefinitely as long as their failure is not a result of customer misuse.
It applies to the electronic components only (i.e. the chargers/batteries but not the tanks or clearomizers).
The 30-day money-back guarantee applies to items in their original packaging and condition.
LIKES
