Voopoo’s celebrated Vinci range receives a new addition with the Voopoo Vinci E80!
Voopoo are presently celebrating their 8th anniversary, with an exciting new brand refresh which attracted a lot of attention to their stand at the renowned InterTabac 2025 industry exhibition.
This isn’t the first device that we’ve checked out from the Voopoo Vinci range, as we’ve previously reviewed the Vinci E120, Vinci Spark 220 and the Vinci 3 pod kit, all of which received acclaim from us!
Will the Voopoo Vinci E80 continue that trend? Read on to find out more…
What Can We Expect From The Voopoo Vinci E80?
Voopoo have designed the Vinci E80 to be a simple, pocket friendly device that is capable of outputting up to a monstrous 80W of power!
Alongside the 80W maximum output power, the 88.8g lightweight design and built-in 3000mAh high density battery combine to deliver a pod system that is powerful, portable and has endurance too.
New 0.3ohm and 0.6ohm Vinci E cartridges have been designed for use with the Vinci E80, offering ultimate convenience thanks to ‘No Coil Change’ technology and the option of mouth to lung (MTL) or direct to lung (DTL) vaping.
Vinci E cartridges feature Voopoo’s ground-breaking iCOSM CODE 2.0 technology, which is built on three pillars of innovation to deliver an exceptional flavour experience!
The Mega-Core ensures a consistently smooth output, while aerospace-grade Golden Cotton is designed to endure high temperatures and lasts for up to 100ml of e-liquid refills.
The final component, the Liquid-Seal Shield, preserves flavour integrity for up to 30 days.
This fusion of technologies has garnered significant industry recognition for its superior performance and flavour!
And not only is the Vinci E80 compatible with Vinci E cartridges, but there are a whole host of other options available too thanks to compatibility with Voopoo’s PnP X platform, allowing you to personalise your vaping experience.
A high resolution 1.47″ TFT colour display provides immersive visuals, allowing you to check key information at a glance, with a choice between three different user interface themes.
Smart resistance detection and auto power matching technologies automatically detect the resistance of the coil in your cartridge and recommend a power output for you, for simple, safe and hassle-free vaping.
There’s also a locking switch present on the Vinci E80, which avoids accidental misfires in your pocket and saves you from having to turn the device off when not in use.
Finally, there’s a style to suit you with seven different classy finishes available…
Many thanks to Voopoo for sending the E80 in for review, let’s dive deeper into this device!
As always, all views are my own…

Design & Build Quality
My first impressions of the Voopoo Vinci E80 once I got it out of the box and into my hand is that this is a robustly made, solid bit of kit that is surprisingly lightweight for its size, I was expecting it to feel a bit chunkier!
It weighs in at 88.8g, giving it a lightweight and comfortable feel, and it measures in at 113.5mm x 35mm x 23.6mm- which is surprising when you consider there’s a 3000mAh high-density battery packed into the device too!
You can pick from seven different colour finishes, with Purple-Gold Gradient, Orange-Red Gradient, Gold, Green, Rose Red, Metal Gray and Spray Black versions available. I was sent the Purple-Gold Gradient one for review.
The finish here is lovely on the aluminium alloy body. The colours seamlessly segue between each other and it shimmers too, with this effect being even more obvious in direct sunlight.
Thankfully, the finish doesn’t seem to be too much of a scratch magnet either.
Another highlight here is the 1.47″ TFT colour screen. This is large and clear, allowing you to easily see information at a glance such as the coil resistance, battery life, output power and whether the device is locked or not.
And of course, one of the most important features on a pod system is present at the bottom of the screen- a puff counter!
Above the screen is the circular fire button, featuring the ‘Everest Lab’ logo laser etched into the centre of it. This is almost perfectly positioned for my thumb and has quite a short travel, registering near-instantaneous input when I press it.
On one side of the Vinci E80 is the plus and minus buttons, which are used for adjusting the output power and navigating the (small) menu. Underneath this is a locking switch- a handy feature we shall come onto shortly!
Above the plus and minus buttons you’ll find a small airflow intake hole, and directly opposite to this on the other side is the sliding airflow control.
On the same side as the airflow control is the Type-C charging port, located near the base, below the laser etched Voopoo Vinci logo.
Vinci E cartridges are manufactured from polycarbonate and feature a transparent design, which allows you to see exactly how much e-liquid remains in the pod.
These have a built-in coil (unlike some of the other PnP X series cartridges which have removable coils), and a 5ml capacity…though only if you are purchasing them in a non-TPD regulated market.
The TPD regulated versions are restricted to a 2ml capacity to meet the regulations, these are the same size as the 5ml non-TPD cartridges but feature a silicon bung inside them to reduce the capacity.
Of course, as with virtually all other pod systems out there, the cartridges connect to the device magnetically. There’s a really solid connection here between the cartridge and the device, with minimal wobble.
Quick Start Guide
How to Fill the Pod
You get two Vinci E cartridges included in the kit, a 0.3ohm and a 0.6ohm one, so you firstly just need to decide which one you are going to use.
The filling port cover is conveniently located near the top of the cartridge, and off to the side of it, so you don’t need to remove the cartridge to fill it.
Lift the filling port cover up to expose the filling port, and fill your cartridge up to the top.
If you are filling a new cartridge for the first time, wait at least five minutes before vaping it, as this allows the cotton to fully soak up the e-liquid which in turn, reduces the risk of burnt hits and increases the lifespan of the cartridge.
Operation
To turn the device on or off, click the fire button five times quickly. You also need to press the fire button to take a puff on the device.
A locking switch is located on the side of the Vinci E80, this allows you to quickly lock and unlock your device, saving you from having to turn it off when you aren’t using it and protecting you against accidental misfires.
To access the menu, hold down the plus and minus buttons at the side of the device.
There are only a couple of options to choose from here, you can switch between three different themes under ‘THEME’, and ‘PUFF CLEAR’ resets the puff counter. ‘EXIT’ will exit the main menu.
Adjusting the power is done by pressing the plus and minus buttons at the side of the Vinci E80, and power is adjusted in 1W increments.
Charging
Voopoo include a Type-C cable in the kit and recommend this for use with the Vinci E80, you just need to use a suitable power source for the charging cable.
The Type-C charging port is located on the side of the device, towards the bottom which means that you can charge it with the device either stood up or laid down on its side.
Whilst charging, the battery percentage is displayed on screen and the Vinci E80 also gives you an estimate of how long it will take to fully charge.
And when the Vinci E80 is on charge, you can still vape it thanks to pass-through charging, however this will increase the charging time.
5V/2A fast charging is present here, which is a god-send when you consider that the Vinci E80 has a 3000mAh battery!
Thanks to the fast-charging capabilities of this device, it can be fully charged in under an hour.
Safety Features
- 8 second vaping overtime protection
- Short-circuit protection
- Overcharge protection
- Output over-current protection
- Low battery protection
- Over temperature protection
- Max power protection
How Does The Voopoo Vinci E80 Perform?
With an output power range of 5-80W, this is a seriously powerful refillable pod system, and one to definitely consider if you prefer a warmer vape and a lung hit!
Though, if you just want a plug and play vape without having to adjust power settings, the GENE.TT chip present in the device caters to that as it smartly detects the resistance and sets a suitable power output for you.
I noticed that when I pressed the fire button to vape, power delivery is pretty much instantaneous, as vapour was produced immediately with virtually no ramp up time for the coil at all.
Annoyingly, there’s no auto-draw system present here, there have been more than a few occasions where I’ve absent-mindedly gone to take a puff without pressing the power button and nothing has happened. I guess I’ve got very comfortable with my pod systems recently!
In the kit you get a 0.3ohm Vinci E cartridge as well as the 0.6ohm version, so out of the box the Vinci E80 is designed to cater to all styles of vaping including mouth to lung, restricted direct lung and mouth to lung vaping.
I would say however that the Vinci E80 is really best suited to restricted lung and direct lung vaping out of the box, as the included cartridges are a little too powerful for mouth to lung vaping, and the device is definitely on the airy side.
They are great for restricted lung and direct lung vaping though, and there is a 0.8ohm Vinci E cartridge available which might be a better fit for mouth to lung!
One of the first things I wanted to do was to really test out the power of this device, so excitedly I installed the 0.3ohm pod, filled it up, went to crank up the power….only to be stopped from going further than 40W.
As it seems, 40W is the maximum power level permitted for the 0.3ohm cartridge, and it limits the 0.6ohm one to 23W, which is slightly annoying as I feel that these cartridges are both more than capable of handling more.
That being said, I still get a very enjoyable, warm vape at 40W with an immensely satisfying smooth draw present.
These excel with high VG e-liquids as well, I’ve filled up with 70% VG e-liquid in both cartridges and they have faired just fine, with no dry hits and no leaks during use either!
Alongside the included cartridges, the Voopoo Vinci E80 is compatible with a huge range of PnP X platform cartridges, with resistances from 0.15ohm all the way to 1.0ohm, so there’s options here for pretty much all vaping styles, from Mouth to Lung right through to Direct to Lung!
Handily, in the kit, there is a small leaflet that shows the vast amount of PnP X cartridge options available. Pretty much any cartridge that is compatible with the Voopoo Vinci E120 or the Argus E40 will work here!
Flavour
Voopoo are proving themselves to be industry leaders when it comes to providing a flavoursome vape from their cartridges and pods, and the Vinci E pods are shoulder to shoulder with the best ones that Voopoo have produced.
The draw is fantastically smooth, with just about the right level of warmth if you have cranked up the power, and the flavour is just exceptional and crisp.
I primarily vaped high VG shortfills mixed with freebase nicotine in these pods, and I could definitely pick up on each and every flavour note present in my e-liquids.
Pod Lifespan
With both Vinci E cartridges, I got a week and a half of heavy use out of them before the flavour began to degrade and they needed to be disposed of.
I’m happy if a pod lasts a week so if I get longer than that it is a bonus, plus it saves on having to repeatedly buy new pods too!
Airflow
A sliding airflow control is located on the side of the Voopoo Vinci E80, with very smooth travel when you adjust it, and a fixed airflow slot is directly opposite to this on the other side of the device.
This offers a wealth of different vaping options, as you can vape mouth to lung right through to unrestricted direct lung hits.
Though as I’ve said above, I still feel that this is primarily a RDL/DTL device rather than a mouth to lung one.
You can achieve a mouth to lung hit by closing the airflow slider right off, and just using the fixed airflow slot on the opposite side, but this is still a little on the airy side with both cartridges.
Lung hitters will absolutely feast here though, as this is one of the airiest pod systems I have tried out!
When you’ve got the airflow set fully open, there’s a huge amount of airflow being drawn in from both slots, with a very cloudy vape produced as a result.
Battery Life
I found this to be a real highlight with the Voopoo Vinci E80, the battery life here is seriously phenomenal!
I’ve got three days use from a single charge before, which considering how often I vape, is frankly outstanding!
That means I can take this device away with me without worrying about battery life and whether I’ll be able to charge it or not.
Pros
- Huge battery life
- Exceptional flavour
- Instant ramp up time
- Solidly built
- Locking switch means you don’t have to turn off the device whenever you aren’t using it
- Compatible with a large range of PnP X pods
- Can refill the pod without removing it from the device
- Able to see exactly how much e-liquid remains at a glance
- Large, clear screen
Cons
- 0.3ohm pod locked to a maximum 40W output and 0.6ohm locked to 23W!
- No auto draw function
- The 0.3ohm pod is definitely a thirsty one!
Final Verdict
I guess a key question here would be ‘if I lost my Vinci E80, would I buy a new one?’….
And the answer from me is a resounding yes!
In the time I have spent with this beast of a pod system, it has become a daily driver for me, I can’t actually remember ever leaving my house without it.
The reason being is that I’ve always been a vaper that enjoys a bit more of a powerful vape, and a good old lung hit, and the Voopoo Vinci E80 is very good at catering to my needs there…even with the power limits imposed on the coils!
Also, the battery life is absolutely outstanding, and there aren’t many other pod systems that compete with the amount of vaping that I can get from a single full charge of my Vinci E80. I don’t even really need to take any other kits out and about with me!
And of course, the flavour absolutely sings thanks to the Vinci E cartridges. These deliver a vape that is as good as any other in the Voopoo PnP X range, with superb longevity too which saves on having to buy replacement cartridges.
All in all, this is another brilliant pod system from Voopoo and one that I’ll continue to use long into the future!
Many thanks to Voopoo for sending the Vinci E80 in for review!
