Unboxing and First Impressions

Straight out of the box, the Argus Bar Prime feels like a premium product. Inside, you'll find two components: the main device and a 10ml e-liquid refill container.

Assembly is straightforward, remove a few silicone plugs, twist the bottle cap, and slot everything together. Once assembled, the device has a sleek, ergonomic design with a matte finish that feels great in the hand.

The rounded edges enhance comfort, but they come with a small caveat: the device struggles to stand upright, particularly when charging. Still, the build quality is exceptional for a disposable, rivaling some of Voopoo's higher-end pod kits.

Design and Features

The Argus Bar Prime sports a sizable 650mAh rechargeable battery, which will deliver the promised 6000 puffs within a couple of charges.

The Bar Prime is paired with a 2ml internal pod that draws liquid from the 10ml container, all while adhering to TPD regulations.

A clear LCD screen displays battery percentage; a feature rarely seen in disposable vapes.

An airflow slider lets you fine-tune your draw, although the difference is subtle. It leans toward a medium-tight mouth-to-lung (MTL) inhale, making it ideal for users transitioning from smoking.

The standout feature? Removable battery recycling. Once you've vaped your way through the device, the battery can be easily detached, marking a significant step toward environmental responsibility. This innovation deserves applause and sets a new benchmark for sustainability in disposables.

Performance and Vapour Production

The Argus Bar Prime delivers a consistently smooth draw, thanks to its 0.8-ohm mesh coil. Flavour clarity is excellent, with the mesh coil effectively bringing out the nuances of Voopoo's very own e-liquids.

The vapour output is moderate, catering perfectly to MTL enthusiasts. Auto-draw activation is responsive, firing instantly with no delays.

I did notice occasional gurgling if the device was left inverted, but this was a minor inconvenience that quickly resolved itself.

Argus Bar Flavours Tested

The Argus Bar Prime boasts a lineup of 20 flavour options, spanning fruits, beverages, and even tobacco. Here's a breakdown of the five flavours I tested with a rating for each one:

Lemon Lime

A zesty, citrus-forward blend with a refreshing cool finish. The lime dominates the aftertaste, adding a sharp, tangy punch that keeps you coming back.

Flavour Rating: 5/5

Strawberry Watermelon

A sweet, slightly perfumed mix. While the strawberry shines, the watermelon brings balance, offering a juicy undertone that’s perfect for all-day use.

Flavour Rating: 4/5

Blueberry Sour Raspberry

This was the standout for me. The sour raspberry cuts through the sweetness of the blueberry, delivering a layered vape that's both tart and refreshing.

Flavour Rating: 5/5

Blueberry

A classic flavour with a mild floral note. While the ice finish is a bit strong, it adds texture to the vape.

Flavour Rating: 4/5

Strawberry Kiwi

A well-rounded profile where the kiwi complements the strawberry's sweetness with a subtle tang, creating a vibrant, fruit-forward mix.

Flavour Rating: 5/5

Battery Life and Charging

While the 650mAh battery offers solid longevity, heavy vapers might find themselves reaching for the charger more often than they'd like. Thankfully, USB-C fast charging ensures a full charge in just 30-40 minutes.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sleek, ergonomic design
  • Exceptional flavour output
  • Rechargeable with USB-C fast charging
  • Sustainable, with a removable battery
