Uwell Dillon EM 25W Pod Kit Review: A True Game-Changer To Own

Disposable vapes keep getting newer techs as the months run by. First, it was Geek Bar that introduced HD touchscreens with custom animations, now we have multiple vape brands that integrate the feature on their products. This time, it’s Uwell leading the race with multiple advanced features at a go.

The Uwell Dillon EM 25W Pod Kit is a game-changer in the market. It offers two variable-size pods (detachable), sleek aesthetics with no physical control buttons, and introduces an all-new protective feature, the EM-LOCK technology. This smart vape is one of a kind, and here, we’ll be reviewing its features and technologies.

Uwell Dillon EM Overview

The Uwell Dillon vape is an extraordinary one with quite a number of interesting features. It comes in a kit, containing two pods of variable settings to intensify or lighten your vaping experience. The miniature body design sells it out as an ergonomic vape you can hold on to and vape for as long as you wish.

Looking around the body, you will find a long indicator light that tells you the battery percentage of the vape, and there are dot holes that help with airflow and battery temperature. One of the most talked about features of this vape is its innovative EM-LOCK – a feature that works automatically to lock and unlock the vape juice flow, so as to prevent possible leaks.

Everything about the Uwell Dillion vape paints it as a decent option for both newbies and veterans; apparently, it’s got different pods for these sets of users. The 900mAH battery charges faster through the USB Type-C port. This one here is not draw activated, it supports auto-draw. Inside the kit package are the following:

• The Uwell Dillon-EM vape
• 1 x 0.6Ω pod cartridge (preinstalled)
• 1 x 0.9Ω pod cartridge
• 1 x type-C cable
• 1 x user manual and warranty card

Specs

• Materials: PCTG for the Cartridge and aluminum alloy for the device
• Dimensions: 21.6mm x 24.1mm x 95.9mm
• E-liquid Capacity: 2.5ml
• Output Power: Maximum 25W
• Pods: 6ohm integrated coil cartridge and 0.9ohm integrated coil cartridge
• Battery Capacity: 900mAh
• Weight: Approx. 53g
• Refilling: Side Filling

Features

• Side Refill Pod: To refill e-juice and continue your vaping, there’s a side clip on the detachable pods; you have to pop the clip and refill.
• EM-Lock: This feature is activated by an electromagnet inside the vape body; it activates and deactivates at intervals to allow passage of e-liquid juice (when the vape is in use) or block it (when the electromagnet detects that you’re done vaping).

• E-Liquid Window: A small transparent window is available on the Dillon EM device to clearly show the state of the EM-Lock feature. Through this transparent space, you can see if the EM-lock is open or closed, as well as see the e-liquid status.
• Auto-Draw Intake:Uwell Dillion EM vape is not draw-activated; you put it into your mouth and it auto-draws once the airflow sensor triggers.
• Built-In Coils:The mesh coils are built into the coils, you cannot remove them separately, which is why the EM-lock feature was introduced, so the vape juice won’t leak and damage the coils.
• Adjustable Airflow:Although the airflow function is built into the pods, you can still adjust it. The 0.6ohm pod’s default airflow setting delivers medium MTL, which can be adjusted to lose MTL or RDL by rotating the pod 180 degrees. Similarly, the 0.9ohm pod delivers tighter MTL as expected and if you rotate it still, you will get medium MTL.

• Battery Indicator Light:The battery indicator light is the long LED at one side of the vape’s body, towards the base. The LED shows different colors depending on the battery capacity; the Green LED means the battery is above 60%, the Blue LED means the battery is between 30% and 60%, while the Red LED means you’re running below 30%.
• Unique Designs:The Uwell Dillion EM 25W vape flaunts a minimalistic yet stylish design, and is available in four unique designs: Luxury Black Gold, Off-White Micro Arc, Purple Aura Quartz, and Silver Quartz Fiber. Also, there is a limited deluxe Off-White Micro Arc edition.
• Type-C Charging: The type-C charging port sits perfectly underneath the vape and it guarantees fast charging of the integrated 900mAh battery.

Pros

• Minimalistic design
• Lots of new, advanced features
• Astonishing designs
• Clear e-liquid indicator
• Easy to refill
• Dual cartridges with adjustable airflow

Cons

• The e-liquid capacity is quite small
• The auto-draw function is not yet very efficient

What is EM-LOCK and How Does It Work?

The EM-Lock is a new technology that locks and unlocks e-liquid flow from the cartridge to the vape device where it is mixed to create the vapor you puff. It is quite an important feature for a highly advanced vape pod like the Uwell Dillion EM, which has its mesh coil built into the vape pod – if the e-liquid leaks out, it would definitely damage the integrated mesh, hence, the EM-lock feature plays an important role.

On the Uwell Dillion EM, you can clearly see the EM-Lock whether it is open or closed. The lock is seen through the transparent e-liquid screen on the vape stick. If you’re not quick to look at it, you won’t catch it as it locks or unlocks, because the action happens automatically as you insert the cartridge and try to vape. It won’t be surprising to see other vape brands adopt this feature sooner.

How Does EM-LOCK Prevent E-liquid Leakage?

When you leave a disposable vape for a seemingly long time (maybe after a vape session), the vape juice may leak out and probably pour on the mesh continuously, which would cause the mesh to be damaged. With the EM-lock feature, the moment you’re done vaping, the vape juice is totally locked from leaving the cartridge, so there is almost zero possibility of having a leak.

What are the Benefits of the Limited Edition Off-White Micro Arc Version?

This limited edition has only 5000 units made – if you don’t hurry to buy one of these 5,000 units, you will miss out big time. But, what’s the big deal with this limited edition and why should you bother to secure one of the few available units?

First off, this limited edition features a different build (not in terms of aesthetics, but the finishing/coating). It is made with a micro-arc oxidation process that shuns off corrosions and scratches, so your Uwell Dillion EM vape will remain shiny at all times, even though you may have used it for a while – several months.

What Kind of Pods Does the Uwell Dillon EM Support?

Well, it comes with its own pods – two of that, to be more precise. The vape uses a unique type of pod, pretty small – can only contain 2.5ml of e-liquid. The Uwell Dillion EM pod is custom-built; there are two units of the pod included inside the kit, so there’s no need looking to buy additional pods; if your e-liquid finishes on one of the pods, you can always refill it.

FAQs

Does EM-LOCK affect the vaping experience or flavor?

Well, somehow it does; because, if the vape juice is allowed to leak out and contact with the mesh, you will get the best taste/flavor profile from the vape anymore. So, yeah, it kind of affects your vaping experience and the flavor taste you get.

Is EM-LOCK compatible with all vape devices?

It is a patented feature of the Uwell Dillion EM 25W vape, so, no, it is not compatible with “all” vape devices, except the Uwell Dillion vape, which is the only disposable vape to feature such tech.

Can EM-LOCK be used with different types of e-liquids?

Of course, it is built into the cartridge, so, whatever e-liquid you have in there, the lock will protect it from flowing out if the vape is not being used.

How do I clean or maintain EM-LOCK?

Actually, there is no known way of cleaning this lock – but does it get dirty? It’s not visible, and vape components are not to be allowed to come in contact with water.
