Hello Everyone and welcome to Pizza Dave’s Vape Reviews. Today I will be going over the Limited-Edition Legend Zeus kit. Since the Legend has been out for a while, my main focus of this review is to go over the new Zeus Sub-ohm tank, but I will talk lightly about the upgrades and changes to the Legend for the kit they have now released which is paired with the tank. Let’s get right to it eh?

MOD OVERVIEW



This updated “limited edition” version of the Aegis Legend has quite a few noticeable changes from the original. A new magnesium alloy lightens up the frame quite a bit, which is probably the most noticeable change. Another cosmetic change is the Zeus logo etched into the leather on the backside. This one also has the upgraded screen face, which I have seen later Legend models have. This has a little bump out over the screen, and supposedly has some better water intrusion protection over the original. Other than these few things that I could spot right away, it isn’t much difference. If you want to see my full thoughts of this device, I reviewed it in the spring of 2018, so check out my profile for that post.

HOW IT VAPES

I wasn’t really going to post anything here, but I found the upgraded firmware on this to be MUCH better than my OG Legend. I was unable to upgrade my old one, so I don’t know if these changes are on the older one, but it vapes much different than mine. For starters, the ramp time is cut way down in wattage mode, so it hits much harder out of the gate. I also found the battery life to be improved slightly. I did a quick test of the TC to see how that is, and it is mediocre with the standard SS setting. It started to provide a choppy vape that cut off way too early. Overall, this appears to still be a wattage banger, but it does it better than it did before.

ZEUS SUB-OHM TANK DETAILS

Alright, so this is the main reason why I am even posting this review. First the Zeus RTA, then the Zeus Dual RTA, then the Zeus X RTA… NOW, the Zeus Sub-ohm tank. This tank offers all of the things that made the Zeus RTA popular, but utilizes a stock coil instead of a rebuildable deck. Out of the gate, I found that I really like the look of this tank. The Zeus tanks have always looked good in my opinion, and this one is no exception. It also comes in some really great colors too. I vaped the heck out of this one, so let’s go over what I found.


_____________________________________________________________________________________

COILS

The coils that come with this tank are a new proprietary design. To swap these coils, the bottom unscrews off the tank, and the coils are pushed into place. If you can’t pull the coils with your nails, they include a nifty little tool which pops under the coil and aids in removal. These are held very snug in place, so there is no doubt that the O-rings will keep the coil sealed in place. I will touch on their performance in my final thoughts.

AIRFLOW

Similar to the Advken Owl, the Zeus Sub-ohm tank utilizes top air flow, which travels to the base of the coil and up the center. I found the air flow to be more than adequate and even turned mine down to about 1/3 closed for the most part. It isn’t noisy, or turbulent, and provides a great vape experience in my opinion. I also found that the AFC has a decent amount of tension, but not too much. It also doesn’t tend to fly off the top like the one on the Zeus X RTA did.

FINAL THOUGHTS/HOW IT VAPES

Since I already reviewed the Aegis Legend, this segment isn’t really about that. I like the changes made to the Legend for sure, and think it is the best Legend yet. I am focused more on how this Sub-ohm tank performs. I will be honest. I thought this was nothing but a cash grab on the Zeus name, but after using it for a while, I found that Geekvape did their homework and created a decent tank for sure. I found the combination of their mesh coils, and the air flow to offer flavor that is right up there with some of my favorite mesh tanks. The entire experience is positive in my opinion, with just a couple of small cons that I can think of. One of the cons is coil life. These are shorter coils, offering a little less surface area for cotton. I don’t know if that is the reason, but they last just a couple of refills shy from some of the taller coils out there (Mesh pro, Falcon, etc.). Another con with these coils is that they are proprietary. I know for a fact I won’t ever see these coils in the shops in my town, so once these coils are done, I will have to shop online or shelf the tank. Other than these couple of things, I think that Geekvape made a decent tank here, and it pairs up really well with the new Legend mod. It is almost like this should have been the only combo they made honestly. If you haven’t had the chance to get a Legend (one of my top mods of 2018), then I think now is a great time to give one a try.



OVEN TEST

If I this were to accidentally fall into my pizza oven would I go out and get another? I have been rocking a Legend since release, so I would definitely want to keep one in my collection.




------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

PROS


  • Lighter bodied mod
  • Updated firmware
  • Zeus logo looks badass
  • Tank has good flavor
  • Air flow is also smooth



CONS


  • If you have a Legend, it probably isn’t worth the upgrade, unless weight was your only gripe
  • The coils are proprietary so finding them may be hard
  • Coil life isn’t as good as some of the best coils out there

Thank you all for reading and thank you to Geekvape for sending this out for review. I am seeing the kit going for about $95, and the tank itself selling for about $30.

REVIEW CRITERIA: I use each item for about two weeks to ensure I have collected enough data to adequately write a review. I use the same e liquid in tanks or rdas throughout all my reviews to ensure that I am comparing apples to apples between all modern equipment. I do not post reviews until I feel confident that I have used it enough to give an educated review. The reason I started doing reviews was due to poor purchasing decisions in my vaping infancy about two years ago. Back then, I purchased several different pieces of hardware without really enjoying it and I hope my reviews can guide people into spending their hard-earned money more wisely than I did! ****Keep in mind that some items I receive may be pre-release and not in retail packaging. Quality may be less than the finished product and what is in the package may differ from the retail package as well.
