V2Cigs UK provides a variety of e-cig and vapourizer products to start you on your journey to improved health and a better life. They offer so many products that it can be hard to decide which one to get, but one option that might catch your eye is the V2 Shisha Pen. Let’s check it out.
- Powerful, long-lasting rechargeable battery (customizable in 5 colors)
- Lightweight design and simple to use
- Satisfying vapor production and throat hit
PACKAGING & DESIGN
With this kit you’ll get one rechargeable battery (short, medium, or long), one refillable EX Blank cartomiser cartridge, a 25ml container of e-liquid, a smart charger, and a wall adapter.
The vapourizer design is sleek and simple, reminiscent of a pen—hence the name. Each V2 Shisha Pen has a modern look, and it’s small and light enough that you won’t draw too much attention to yourself like you would with a larger, more cumbersome product. You can also customise your battery color in blue, black, pink, white, or stainless steel.
KIT CONTENTS
- 1 x V2 High Quality E Cigarette Rechargeable Battery (Short, Standard or Long)
- 1 x V2 Cigs EX Blank (the tank for your e-Liquid)
- 1 x 25ml bottle Platinum e-Liquid (Zero, 0.6%, 1.2%, 1.8% and 2.4% nicotine strengths)
- 1 New Smart Charger
- 1 Wall Adapter
VAPOUR PRODUCTION
Thanks to its powerful 4.2-volt battery, the V2 Shisha Pen is able to produce enough vapor in one hit to satisfy most vapers. I am really impressed with the vapor production, and it gave me a good throat hit.
FUNCTIONALITY
With the V2 Shisha Pen, simplicity is paramount. It’s comprised of two parts (the battery and cartridge) which are easily fitted together. You can choose an automatic battery or manual, dependent on your preferences. I found them both really easy to use, but I did prefer the automatic.
CLEAROMISER
As you know, the Express Kit includes a refillable clearomiser, which gives you the option to use an e-liquid of your choice if you don’t like what you get from V2. Keep in mind that they should only be re-filled around 15 to 20 times before they need replacing. You can get black replacements on their site for £13.95.
I think the price for these refillable cartomisers is a little steep, especially if you are a heavy user. On the plus side, they are extremely light and are nowhere near as bulky as many others on the market. V2Cigs do make some delicious e-liquid flavors worth trying too (in both cartridge and bottle form). If you’re not sure about a flavor you can try them with smaller and less expensive sample packs. My three favorites are the Cherry, Cola and Grape.
BATTERY DETAILS
The rechargeable battery is available in three sizes—short, medium, and long—and you can also choose between manual and automatic. I found that the automatic lasted a little longer than the manual, but I can’t be sure that this will always be the case or if it was just the ones we tested. Each battery should give you all-day use and at least 300 puffs.
PRICE & SHIPPING CHARGES
The entire kit retails for £36.95. It may sound a little pricey at first glance, but remember that you also get 25ml of an e-liquid included, which retail for over £13 alone. If you’re not interested in getting the e-liquid could get the basic V2 Shisha Pen UK kit for £24.95. This lower-priced includes the battery, refillable cartridge, and charger with a wall adapter.
Inside the UK, shipping will add a flat £3. However, if your order totals more than £58, the shipping cost is waived. It’s a shame they don’t offer free postage because if you need to buy new cartomisers, which aren’t cheap as they are, you’d need to buy at least 5 to take advantage of the free postage.
I don’t know about you, but I can’t justify spending £13.95 + £3.00 postage on a new cartomiser. Instead, I’d have to buy at least three to bring to cost down to £1.00 per kit. Bt as I said previously, these cartomisers are a little pricey so adding an extra pound for each pack is something that really turns me off this kit.
WARRANTY & GUARANTEE
There is a 6 month warranty for the V2 Shisha Pen should there be any faults with the device. From the day you receive the kit, you’ll have two weeks (14 days) to return the kit for a full refund as part of V2’s money back guarantee. All you have to do to get a refund is return it undamaged and with the original packaging.
