For many vapers, especially those who used to use mech mods and 0,1 ohm vape turntables, the appearance of salt nicotine based liquids and POD-systems was a kind of shock: you can quickly saturate your body with nicotine and you only need to take a few puffs and not to release big clouds. But gradually such vapers having tried POD-systems started to buy them with confidence and more often for going out, as there is no need to carry a big device, spare batteries and a bottle with liquid. Uwell has repeatedly released quite interesting POD systems, which are in demand, especially the Caliburn series. Deciding to continue it, the company released Uwell Caliburn AK2 Pod Kit, which you can say is small but not big.

One of the features of the device is its compact size and the fact that it is made in a small square, which is easy to fit in your pocket. The device works on a constant 15 watts and is activated when you puff. The positive point is that the device uses interchangeable A2 series cartridges, which were developed for previous versions, so it is not a problem to buy them.

CALIBURN A2 Refillable Pod Cartridge
The decision to use the previously developed UN2 Meshed-H 0.9 “Omega as a cartridge; CALIBURN A2 Refillable Pod is very good as the vaper does not have to waste time looking for it sold in many vape shops. The cartridge is held in the battery pack by magnets.

The cartridge is easy to refill, for which you just need to remove the flat mouthpiece and pour 2 ml of liquid into the small hole. I recommend to use vials with a thin metal spout because the filling hole is very small and you can fill the whole cartridge if you use plastic bottles.
