Reviewer's comments on physical characteristics and perceived quality

Youde We deliver here a fairly original kit by its size but also by its colorful aesthetic mix which is reminiscent of the Ford Mustang or the Mini Cooper with their two colored bands.
These are present on both sides and over the entire length of the Box.

 

On the side, there is a light switch a little unusual because of round shape and prominent enough.
The "+" and "-" buttons are positioned below.

There is also a micro-USB port on the front for recharging, the latter is indicated compatible "fast charge", mean by that a complete charge in less than 35mn on an 2A charger.

La Gaxi is a small Box that fits in the palm of the hand due to its small size and rounded shape, the switch is easily accessible and triggering is done intuitively.

The latter exists in three colors: white with pink bands, black with white stripes and blue with white stripes.

 

It is surmounted by a small clearomizer which responds to the sweet name of Tinis.
It is a 22mm diameter Clearomiser with a capacity of 2ml.
It is made up of a sliding top-cap which is very practical for filling and it is fitted with a safety device preventing the latter from opening in your pocket.
There is an adjustable airflow on the top.

The latter comes with a resistance in 1,5Ω for a vape between 13 and 18w, here we have a nice vape with good flavors.

Reviewer's comments on conditioning

A sober box in a nice matte black with the name of the brand and the kit.
For the product range, the packaging is of much better quality than other more expensive brands.

Inside our box we find the Box and the Clearomizer, well calibrated.

At the level of the Clearomizer, there is a replacement Pyrex and under the latter a USB cable, additional resistance and a bag of seals.

Vapelier's rating in terms of ease of use: 5/5 5 5 out of stars

Reviewer's comments on the use of the product

We have a very well finished kit with excellent battery life.
Only the paint leaves something to be desired after a few days of use.

Here, no need to make several settings, the use is intuitive.
A discreet little kit that slips easily into a pocket

The 3200mah battery allows a beginner to recharge once a day or every other day.
The latter can also be used with any clearomizer on the market but it will be difficult to last the day if you vape above 35w.

The mood ticket of the reviewer

When receiving the Gaxi, I wasn't sure what to expect.
I must say that I am very pleasantly surprised.
For the test I used it for two days in a row at 14w and the battery of the Gaxi died on the evening of the second day at the stroke of 20 p.m., knowing
that I used it as a main kit from 7 a.m. to 22 p.m.

What a pity that the painting is erased which takes away a lot of its charm.

The Clearomizer Tinis does its job very well and with the resistance in 1,5Ω, we have a good tight draw even if the airflow adjustment can sometimes be a
little capricious.
For a beginner, this kit will be an excellent choice due to its ease of use, size and autonomy.
