Hi Vaping Underground members, In this review i take a look at the Luxe Nano 80W Touch Screen TC Kit 2500mAh from Vaporesso. The Luxe Nano 80W Touch Screen TC Kit was supplied for the purpose of this review by Jessica from Vaporesso.

Introduction
The Luxe Nano is a mini version of the dual battery Luxe device, it comes paired with a Mini version of the SKRR tank which allows the kit to have a TPD version available. The device has a 2500mAh internal battery, 80w max wattage and comes packed with all the features the Omni board offers. The SKRR-S Mini uses the exact same innovative coils that fit the SKRR but is a much smaller tank being just 22mm at it's base and 23mm at it's widest point. Both the Luxe Nano and SKRR-S Mini's bigger brothers were top notch so how do the shrunk down versions fair? I give my thoughts!

Aesthetics and Ergonomics
The Luxe Nano like it's bigger brother looks like a marriage between the Polar and the Revenger, just a smaller size and is one hell of a fingerprint magnet. The device has the usual main chassis section with mirrored finish panels front and back. The front of the device has a 1.3" Colour screen and underneath we have virtual touch keys, the centre one being the select key and also the Vaporesso logo, we also have the micro USB port on the front central bottom. One side of the device is featureless, the other has a very large pill shaped fire button towards the top, the back of the device has a fixed mirrored finish panel with a design, the design differs depending on colour version. The base has generous venting, safety stamps and branding, moving to the top we have a centre 510 plate with Gold plated, spring loaded 510. The Luxe Nano is the usual exceptional build quality i have come to expect from Vaporesso and with it's smaller size is even more ergonomic than it's older brother. I received the Rainbow version, it's also available in Silver, Bronze, Black, Blue and Red.

Assembling And Disassembling The SKRR-S Mini
As well as having smaller dimensions the mini version of the SKRR also has a more standard screw on Top-cap along with a standard 510 drip tip and no locking system. These changes makes it a simple subohm tank and separates into it's various parts very easily. Unscrew the base with coil then you can wiggle the glass free, the SKRR-S mini goes back together with the same ease. The standard version has a 3.5ml capacity and you get an identical spare glass, the TPD version has exactly the same glass pre-installed and spare, the capacity is reduced by the TPD SKRR-S Mini having extra metal added to the chimney section.

The Coils
The SKRR-S mini use the same QF coils as it's bigger brother, you receive 2 of the new QF coils with the kit, unfortunately you don't receive the new SK CCELL which uses SS wire. The coils you receive are the pre-installed QF 0.15 strip coil and also included is the QF 0.20 mesh coil. Both included coils have identical recommendations of 50w to 80w with best at ratings of 65w to 75w, the coils use a Flax Fiber and Cotton mix for their wicking material. The coils have a hollow cone fitted centrally inside them which is sealed around the bottom essentially creating a juice well. Normally with a stock coil head all that stands in the way between the tank of liquid and the hollow in the centre of the coil head which leads straight into the base and then your airflow slots is the wicking material and wire, mesh, etc hence leaking has always been an issue with bottom airflow tanks, in fact even tanks referred to as "they don't have a leaking issue" just means the leaking isn't that bad. This is quite a simple idea but very clever, instead of the surplus liquid caused by over saturation and changes in temperature going down into the base and eventually out the airflow slots it just gathers in the well around the bottom of the cone, when you vape as well as re-wicking from the normal wicking ports on the coil head it also wicks from this well essentially recycling the liquid we would normally end up getting on our devices. The vast majority of manufacturers if they had come up with this idea would be claiming it's a leakproof system so you have to hand it to Vaporesso that they refer to it has leak reduction. The reason why some liquid can still potentially go into the base is because you still have the air entering the coil head through the sides of the cone and another cause of liquid getting into the base is spitting, all coils will spit occasionally it's just with stock coils we don't notice because it spits from the sides of the coil head to the centre hollow of the coil so we don't feel the spitting on our lips. Although some spits will just hit the metal on the cone and work its way down to the already mentioned juice well some spits will go through the air openings on the cone and down into the base, but that's a hell of a lot of spitting you would need before liquid would escape through the airflow slots. Happy Days!

The Airflow
This will be a short section as the cone has already been explained. The SKRR-S Mini like the SKRR has tri cyclops with stopper, the air when entering the tank instead of doing so through the hollow of your coil head, it enters the hollow of the already explained cone which is fixed into the hollow of your coil head. Halfway up this cone we have 4 cutouts all the same size evenly spaced around the cone which allows the air to enter the coil head, this is called the Quadflow air distribution system, which is claimed reduces leaking and spitback but also eliminates cold air intake giving a warmer richer flavour (not my words).
