OXVA Xlim V2 Pod Kit Review

The compact OXVA Xlim V2 represents a thoughtfully refined edition of the popular Xlim pod system, now sporting redesigned leak-resistant pods, upgraded safety features and an array of customization options packed within a pocket-friendly zinc alloy chassis available in an array of stylish colors. While retaining the core functionality vapers loved from the original, the V2 takes the experience to new heights.

Out of the box, the quality construction and ergonomic curves catch the eye – but it’s loading up those ingenious new pods that reveals the true step up. Adjustable airflow options enable personalized MTL draws across a wide spectrum from loose to ultra-tight. Meanwhile, safety innovations provide comprehensive protection without compromising the reliably satisfying vape performance.

After rigorous hands-on testing, the Xlim V2 proved itself as an outstanding compact pod mod option for mouth-to-lung aficionados seeking exceptional convenience on-the-go paired with customization flexibility to dial in your perfect vape every time.

Design and Build Quality

Weighing just 45g including pods, the Xlim V2 remains pleasingly lightweight while exhibiting durable zinc alloy construction across the elegantly contoured chassis. Available in a spectrum of colors like dusty rose, vibrant green and anodized gunmetal gray, the understated styling strikes an ideal balance of form and function.

Smart ergonomic flourishes like the gently curved edges and grippy carbon fiber side paneling make the device sublimely comfortable to hold and operate for extended vaping sessions. Visually, I appreciate how the central OLED display provides key vaping data without looking overly techie.

The intuitive firing button features a signature X motif that pulses blue when activated, adding a touch of modern flair. Everything connects together solidly thanks to strong magnetic attachments, feeling reassuringly robust and built to last.

V2 Pods

While the original Xlim won plaudits for its balanced feature set, leaky pods proved a common complaint. Now OXVA has not only eliminated leakage with the V2, but also upgraded capacity to 2ml, improved longevity to 3+ weeks and incorporated cross-compatibility with all existing OXVA pod mods.

Gone are the fiddly silicone stoppers – the V2 sports a basic yet highly effective side fill-port, plugged by a secure rubber stopper. Ejuice loading isn’t the quickest due to a narrow fill hole, but the anti-leak design proves well worth this mild inconvenience.

The round-edged plastic chassis allows for visual juice level checks while providing a comfy mouthpiece. Durable A1 Kanthal coils deliver outstanding flavor and lifespan for replaceable pod systems, wicking 70/30 VG/PG blends plus 50/50 nic salts without issues. Three resistance variants cater to varied vaping needs:

  • 0.6Ω mesh pod for sub-ohm style dense vapor
  • 0.8Ω mesh pod for rich flavor at modest wattages
  • 1.2Ω standard pod for nic salt throat hits

While flavor and longevity impress across the board, I found the 0.8Ω pod to provide the ultimate balance for vapor intensity and battery efficiency. The eradication of leaks alone makes V2 a total game changer though.

Features and Performance

Centered around intuitive automated functionality for beginners, the Xlim V2 also provides experienced vapers plenty of customization potential via handy modes accessed through the large control button:

Activation Choices:

  • Draw-fire instantly with airflow sensor detection
  • Button-fire for complete manual control

Power Control:

  • 5 to 25W wattage adjustment in 0.5 increments
  • Round-robin cycling for easy fine-tuning
  • Auto-detection sets recommended wattages for pods

Additional Modes:

  • Power lock prevents misfiring
  • Stealth mode (auto shut-off)
  • Puff counter to track usage
  • User profiles for customized presets

Everything connects instantly with efficient magnetic attachments – the moment a pod clicks into place, the smart chip auto-adjusts to suitable parameters. Wattage can be manually tweaked up or down to balance vapor production versus battery life.

Throughout testing, the Xlim delivered impressively consistent flavor and vapor quality without any dry hits or flooding issues. All pods wicked high VG ejuices flawlessly straight out the box.

I especially enjoyed tailoring a tighter mouth-to-lung draw using the well-engineered airflow slider, enabling satisfying throat hits and dense vapor production to rival many box mods.

Battery Life and Charging

The integrated 900mAh battery provides adequate daily usage time from a single charge – I managed 50+ draws using the 0.6 ohm pod which should keep most casual MTL vapers satisfied between top-ups. Taking only 45 minutes for 0-100% recharges, the Type-C USB charging port handily enables pass-through vaping functionality too.

For such compact dimensions, the Xlim V2 delivers well above average battery duration compared to the pod vaping market while the 1A fast charging proves perfectly adequate. Remember to turn the device off overnight though for safety and longevity of the cell.
