Reviewer comments on business characteristics
The Presa is a mini box at the antipodes of Wismec productions. No more triple batteries and astronomical powers. No, here we do it with finesse for the smallest of the brand's electronic boxes.
But mini-box does not mean downgraded functionality, far from the same.
The Presa is equipped with the same chipset as its cousin the Evic Vtc mini and therefore we are entitled to the same benefits.
Complete temperature control (Ni200, SS316 and Ti as well as TCR adjustment), 75W of power and large oled screen with multiple information.

Reviewer's comments on physical characteristics and perceived quality
Mini, did you say mini? Well Wismec took us at our word. The Presa is barely longer than a 30w Istick while offering much more than the latter.
A full aluminum chassis, a battery slot reduced to its simplest expression.
The switch is an integral part of the front panel, it is devilishly effective. A very convincing first approach.

Reviewer's comments on functional features
As said before, the Presa has the same electronics as the Evic Vtc mini, so we are entitled to the same functions. Complete and customizable temperature control via the TCR parameter to make it compatible over time with different types of resistive, controlled power and a flat signal for a smooth vape and even a "mechanical" function. She has everything a big .
The little extra: the chipset is upgradable allowing the update of the firmware.
Only the locking system leaves me doubtful, a simple plastic latch which, personally, makes me doubt its reliability over time.

The most complete packaging, your Presa will be delivered to you in a very large cardboard box (compared to the box itself) containing a manual "in English" and a USB cable for recharging but also for updating the firmware.

The Presa is intended to be relatively simple to use, all you need is three clicks on the switch to enter the menus and choose your vape mode via the [+] and [-] buttons. We choose our favorite atomizer of the moment, we screw it and your box is ready to fire.
Small and practical. The dream for the nomadic vape!

The mood ticket of the reviewer
Thanks to its collaboration with Joyetech, Wismec has quickly become a key player in the vaporous landscape in recent months.
After a fanfare release of its famous Reuleaux and its Noisy Criket, it was time for them to release a small electronic box accessible to as many people as possible.
Luckily, there was a small box in the catalog in the adapted format but powered by somewhat asthmatic electronics: the Presa 40W.
No problem, we redesigned the front panel and glued the excellent 75W chipset of its cousin Evic VTC Mini.
And so the Presa 75W TC was born. A success of practicality and aesthetics!
Thanks to Xavier from My free-cig for the loan of this mini box.
