My first impression was that this is a simple mechanical mod , but as I looked deeper I realised that this is far from being just a simple mec mod . For a start , it has lots of features that you would simply overlook if you had just seen this in the shop window or in a cabinet . It has an in-built chip which protects you from overheating , reverse connection protection , low voltage , short circuiting , over current and over puffing . It shows you what you have basically done wrong by a way of a series of blue flashing LEDs on the side of the mod . For instance when the device has short circuited it will flash five times then go into standby mode , protecting you quickly and simply . When users fire the Tesla Invader III , the blue light will activate . Errors such as low battery voltage or reaching the puff cutoff will also make the blue light flash . The device itself takes two 18650 batteries and with a variable voltage knob on the side , it can go from 3.6v all the way to 6.6v giving you a great range , depending on your vaping style . Voltage is actually adjusted using a potentiometer control knob which can be rotated from I to V to choose the required voltage . The 510 connector will read anywhere from 0.1 ohms . This is a really responsive mod and as soon as you press that button , it delivers straight away with no ramp up time - just an instant hit . Using the advanced Tesla proprietary chipset , users can generate power up to 240 watts of power with this device - and can exceed 240 watts when using higher power batteries . I really like the look of this mod which is small , simple and compact . There are also a few collars to choose from in the zinc alloy material which is also scratch resistant . It is suitable for all atomizers , from subohm tanks that require high wattage to atomizers that focus more on flavor , it will work perfectly well . The device ’ s magnetic battery cover makes it easy to swap out batteries when they need recharging and is also strong enough to prevent the cover from coming off unintentionally . The blue , black and silver all look great with any kind of atomiser on top and , along with the style , and features combined with a weight of only 198g , this truly is an awesome mod and I give it a 5 / 5 .
