KIMSUN TC40W MINI KIT
by Steve Tarpey
The start of 2016 saw the break out of
mini mods on to the market, with the
council of Vapor mini volt taking the
market by storm.
I myself own the COV Mini Volt, whilst a
great mod we knew it wouldn’t be long
before many more entered the market,
here’s a peak at the Kimsun TC40W mini
kit.
little cloud of vapour was produced.
Seriously impressive for such a small
piece of kit.
The Mod itself is pretty easy to operate,
the ‘fire’ button is the on off switch. Usual
procedure, press five times to get it on,
press five times to switch it off. Press
the button three times to toggle between
power or temperature control mode.
On first inspection:
The kimsun mod is actually quite
aesthetically pleasing and the first thing
that stands out is just how light this
device is. Looks wise I particularly liked
the mirrored finish on the LED display
and the raised bumps along the plastic
case allowing for a better grip even if the
MOD had some slippery E juice on it.
The + &- buttons and ‘fire’ button are all
neatly recessed into the mod, and I have
never seen a Mod react to a change in
the power setting as quickly as this one.
Usage:
I have had this piece of kit for about
three weeks and have been Vaping on
a power rating of 34.0W. The tank has a
nozzle so you can adjust it between lung
Vaping and mouth Vaping, I just opened
it right up and decided lung Vaping was
the only way forward. I didn’t expect
much but what a great little vape this is,
I Used this with 0mg Strawcherry Blow
and what a great tasting and magnificent
The tank which is supplied with the mod
is quite small at 1.1ml although I found
that enough to last me about an hour
as I’m Vaping around the Vapouround
office. The tank itself was very well built
and I had no issues with the tank leaking
during normal operation. One slight issue
with the device is that the filling holes
at the side of the tank are quite small
and can sometimes lead to a little bit of
leakage when trying to refill the tank.
One of the other things that I found quite
disappointing was the battery life of the
mod, it would probably last me for about
three hours of continuous use, however
when you take into account this is the
quickest charging device I have ever
used, this can be forgiven, I think it took
me 24 minutes to go from 10% power to
100%, so all in all the quick discharge is
not really an issue.
Whose it suitable for?
TC40W MINI KIT is more suitable for
office workers. People who vape less
often outside or who use it indoor will find
TC40W MINI KIT is a good choice. This
device is definitely a universal device
and would serve a newbie vapour very
well and the pleasant cloud production
on the higher wattage would also satisfy
someone looking to lung vape, although
you would be refilling quite often. Mainly
the size of this mod would make it quite
easy for someone to take on a night out
without worrying about precious pocket
and hand bag real estate being taken up.
Conclusion:
A great piece of kit that will definitely
leave the user feeling like they have
value for money. This is a small mod
which has very big ideas and it does well
to deliver on this in many ways.
