Element x Aspire Gusto mini pods

[Jengz]

Initial impressions:
Form factor is amazing
Throat hit and flavour is great, however I feel the gusto delivers better in this regard
Pods last about 350 puffs, so will see what sort of mileage I get from one
Pods are 20 or 24mg
Air draw is very tight, a little hard for me to mtl and I actually prefer to use this straight to lung for the throat hit
For the price, form factor and convenience I'd give this 10/10 for now

The gusto will still get my money at month end but this is perfect for super stealthy ninja business

Thanks for this, was considering getting one but I just tried one and also feel the flavour doesn't pull through as well as the gusto and also, quite a tight draw... looks like ill be sticking to the gusto for my stealth vaping and nic cravings, no need changing from something that you love so much

R399 for the device and 3 pods
Individual pods are R45

My only worry is that the nic in the Cue pods won't be as smooth as the gusto. It has such a pleasant throat hit and the nic is so smooth on the inhale!

The funniest thing about the gusto is that its probably my favourite device that I've owned in a long while. The pros far outweigh the cons.

Gusto is far superior
And from your comments looks like it will be cheaper to run on pods

The form factor of the cue is probably what I enjoy about it most

You're concerns are absolutely spot on Buddy.

This is the beauty of Elements' Nicotine salts.

The key differences between Nicotine salts and traditional e-liquid is the inhale/exhale characteristics, as well as the smoothness of Ns20.

The magic is not in the tiny, easy to use device. The magic is not in the conveniently pre-filled Pods....The magic is in the NICOTINE SALTS!

Same! I always thought that more cloud is better and these small devices are poor but man oh man, the gusto is my best purchase of 2017

Not to mention the flavour that these little devices push!

For those running the gusto, what device is it replacing? @Jengz @Halfdaft Customs

For me it's replacing all my setups hahaha... it's something new in the market, or the first I've seen and had of this sort

Have you tried all the pods?

Not yet, I'm slowly working my way through them.

I've had both tobaccos, pink lemonade and watermelon chill... honey roasted tobacco is in the lead for me, next on the list is the menthol known as 'frost'

I purchased at vapecon and before the stock was out on the shelves in the stores I spoke to @Vape Republic, the guys name is Akeel, had pods the next day! Great service and advice

So some feedback regarding the twisp pods
It took me exactly a day to finish one pod, this was with medium/heavy use
For R45 a pod it seems like twisp is tapping into the pack a day market
A little too steep for my liking although it did manage to defeat my nic cravings

How does the nic quality compare to the Gusto ?

I can't give you an accurate comparison as I don't own the gusto yet
But from my little time with the gusto I'd say the nic quality in the gusto is far superior (nic salts being the large attributing factor)
The cue is not bad but loses this battle

Thanks for the feedback, just reassuring me that the gusto is still the one for me. How's the flavour range on the twisp?

Pods are sold either in packs of two or singles, this is sold separately to the device, some vendors might have combo deals, not too sure of pricing of that. The pods are R130 bucks a pop from vapers corner and lasts me between 8-10 days.

The nic salts means that there is high quantity of nic in the juice which the pod is filled with, at 20mg, however the throat hit is exceptional!

So effectively you are satisfying your body with a lot less vaping and a lot faster.

I have tried refilling the pods and yes there is sort of a way to do it but without having nic salt ejuice in the pod, its like normal mtl vaping.

Pods come in 5 flavours if I'm not mistaken, all element eliquid.

When I'm done with the pod, I chuck it out and put a new one in. Works extremely well for me as I was spending around 170 bucks a week on the stinkies, so a lot cheaper, no effort and of course a lot healthier.

I am not too clued up about nic salts and how it works through the system but the absorption rate differs to your regular nicotine if I'm not mistaken.

@Vape Republic will be able to help us out there.

Also, Phil dunkley has done a review on this device and the pods in his vapecon video about 30 minutes into the video.

I know I'm not of much help but yeah... I'm a fanboy and love this thing
