OXVA Origin X Limited Edition Kit
Introduction
The Origin X from OXVA is the follow up to the Origin AIO. The Origin X has had a few tweaks made to it; maximum wattage has been increased from 40W to 60W, the pod now sits in a recess up top, instead of going inside the body of the device, airflow holes have been shifted to the front. Then there are a few exciting accessories available; a 510 adapter plate and a Dual Coil RBA deck with tank. It is a single 18650 device with a power output of 5-60W and a pod with a 3ml liquid capacity.
Let’s take a look at the Origin X from OXVA.

Included in the Limited Edition kit and available as extras:
The Origin X is available in four different colour schemes: black with red trim, marble grey, pine green and black carbon fibre.
The body of the Origin X is very similar looking to the original Origin. Tall and slim, it fits in your hand comfortably. Looking at it from the top it is almost tear shaped, which creates a very nice overall shape to hold onto. The frame of the body is metal and it has two plastic panels on either side. The sides on the version I received are a carbon fibre effect.
One of these panels is removed to reveal the battery compartment and the panel is held on by four magnets. The magnets are strong; the panel snaps into place and does not move around.
The battery compartment has a ribbon to help you remove your battery for charging and there is no wiggle of the battery when installed.
The bottom of the device has battery venting holes, regulation marks and a USB Type-C port.
The front of the Origin X has a cut out in the body which lets you see your liquid level in the pod.
Below this are two airflow slots to allow air to pass into the coil when drawing on the device.
Then you have the fire button, which is small and circular and is convex shaped. The button is recessed into the device so it doesn't stick out from the body, but the convex shape allows you to find the button easily by feel. It is surrounded by an LED indicator light.
The OLED screen is located below the fire button and is bright and clear, even in direct sunlight.
Below the screen is the single adjustment button, which again is small and circular, but this button is concave in shape and sits flush with the body of the Origin X. You use this button to cycle through the wattage and it round robins once you hit 60W.
On the bottom of the front of the device is the Origin X name.
The top of the Origin X has a recess where the pod or various other available accessories fit. There are two connection pins which are spring loaded and a single strong magnet which secures the pod or accessory in place.
Overall, the build quality is very high and the device feels nice in the hand. It has a nice weight to it, not feeling too heavy but also not feeling flimsy. The tall and slim design makes the Origin X pocket friendly too.
Features & Functions
Firstly, the display shows your wattage followed by the voltage being drawn from your battery when firing and the resistance of the installed coil. You then have a puff counter and a battery indicator.
There are no menus to navigate and there is just the single adjustment button which cycles up through your wattage selection in one watt increments. Holding down the adjustment button will change the wattage at a faster speed. Once you hit 60W it stops and pressing the adjustment button again will round robin back to 5W.
Button Combinations
The pod is made from PCTG and is tinted, but not too dark. You can see your liquid quite easily through the sides of the pod.
It has a fixed drip tip on the top, which is circular in shape. It looks to be the same size as a 510 drip tip.
On the front of the pod is a little grip which you can push up on with your thumb to remove the pod from the top of the device when you want to take it off, along with a little cut out on the back to place a nail under.
The bottom of the pod has a single strong magnet, the hole for pushing your coils into and the fill port. The fill port has a rubber stopper, which is pulled out using the rubber leg. This leg doubles as a stand so when the pod is placed on a flat surface and a coil is in place it will stand upright and not fall over or roll. The fill port itself is a little oblong shape, but it isn't very big. Small nozzles will be fine, but anything on the bigger side and you will struggle.
Coils
In the standard box you will get the following coils:
You can also use the other coils in the Unicoil range:
The stock coils and the RBA coil are all press fit, and they push into the bottom of the pod. All of the Unicoil range, except the new 0.2Ω coil, have a screw on airflow control ring. It’s important to note that you need to keep this removable AFC ring to put onto new coils.
Dual Coil RBA
The Dual Coil RBA is essentially a dual coil postless deck that sits on top of an ‘L’ shaped pod. The pod itself holds 3.2ml of liquid. You wick your coils with the cotton hanging down into the pod slightly, then the L shape creates pressure on the liquid feeding your cotton. I was a little sceptical of the wicking method, but I found it worked fine. I had my cotton hanging down not too far and experienced no wicking issues.
Filling the Dual Coil RBA tank is done via a fill port on the top of the rear of the pod section. The fill port is fine for small nozzles, but larger nozzles can be a bit of a pain. The fill port is sealed with a rubber bung.
The top cap slides onto the base and has two notches which you have to line up to ensure your airflow holes are positioned correctly.
The outer part of the top cap turns to let you adjust your airflow. The outer cap has two cyclops cutouts on either side, but the inner cap has three holes on either side, which you can shut off to achieve your desired airflow. The cap turns very smoothly when adjusting the airflow.
On top is an 810 drip tip, which is removable.
The inside of the top cap is relatively narrow, cutting the chamber space down and directing the airflow directly onto the coils. This means you want to keep your two coils quite close together to avoid touching the top cap. The reduced chamber also makes it perfectly viable to install a larger single coil instead of a dual coil, but I haven’t tried this yet so cannot say how it vapes with a single coil.
I like the way the chamber is designed, the airflow is really directed onto the coils.
510 Connection
The 510 connection plate is quite a simple accessory. It is shaped the same as the pod so it fits snugly on the top of the device. Once installed you can attach any atomiser which has a 510 connection. It has the same magnet as the pod and once slotted in place there is no wiggle or movement.
