310Vapers T-Rex Reviews

This is a review of the T-Rex Standard Starter Kit ($37.95) and T-Rex SmokeTech Cartomizer Starter Kit ($43.95), be sure to also check out our review of the higher-end T-Rex iKenVape Starter Kit in our E-Cig Mod Reviews.

Presentation/Packaging 4/5

The packaging of the T-Rex from 310Vapers is straightforward as the price implies. There’s no fancy boxes or glossy covers here and no need for them. The T-Rex does come in a nice zip-up carrying case branded with a silver plate that has mesh compartments for all that’s needed.

Battery/Responsiveness 4.5/5

When it comes to battery, the T-Rex packs a T-Rex sized smash of battery power, vaping options and overall value. The T-Rex ships with two 650mAH eGo batteries that can be upgraded to 1000mAH for just $5 more (YEAH, FIVE DOLLARS). The batteries I reviewed had a great silver finish, but they also come in beige and black. They ship with matching atomizer cones that give the assembled unit a nice sleek look.  The LED on the T-Rex batteries was unusual but equally stylish, lighting up the ring where the button sits between the battery and the atomizer cone. My only small gripe with the batteries is they don’t have a safety lock-out feature (normally three or five clicks to lock) but this isn’t an issue so long as you keep it in the case or disconnect the atomizer before storage.

Vapor/Flavor(s) 5/5

The T-Rex doesn’t ship with any liquid or filled cartomizers, so there’s not a lot to say specifically about the T-Rex in terms of flavor. What you do get, much like the batteries, is a lot of power in a kit that’s bargain-priced at right around $40. You have the atomizer option ($38) which comes with 2.4ohm atomizers and five catridges to fill. These atomizers are certainly good to be dripped straight onto and vaped with a drip tip as well.  I say that because I’ve never been a big fan of cartridges, but if they’re what you like it’ll work as good as any other three-piece cartridge/atomizer system. In terms of resistance, 2.4 is by all means on the low-end, which means you’ll get great vapor production and clean flavor with little effort, whether you drip into the cartridge or onto the atomizer.

The cartomizer option ($44) with this kit was my personal favorite, shipping with five SmokeTech 1.5ohm cartomizers that absolutely crank the vapor out. Plenty of veteran vapers will tell you that you need dual coil cartomizers to have the best vaping experience. Not so- these single coil cartomizers are very low-resistance and high intensity, giving much more vapor and flavor over the standard resistance cartomizers you may be used to. 310 also has these same cartomizers in dual coil and XL if you choose to go that route at a later time.

Overall (Not An Average) 5/5

The T-Rex from 310Vapers is a hands-down great value when it comes to eGo battery kits. At right around $40, the lack of gift box packaging and fancy rebranding seems a moot point when compared to the value in terms of battery and cartomizers/atomizers available. Kits like this won’t be for everyone coming out of smoking as there’s a slight learning curve with using e-liquid, dripping, filling cartomizers and that sort of thing. But with a little research the completely uninitiated can have an expert-level vaping experience right out of the box. Overall, a great buy to be had from 310Vapers and with top quality customer service and shipping times, it’s sure to be a hit.
