Vaporesso Armour Octa Vape Kit
Vaporesso Armour Octa Vape Kit is a high-powered sub-ohm vape kit built for experienced adult vapers who want DTL performance, adjustable power and the flexibility of replaceable batteries. With 220W output, the advanced AXON 3.0 chipset and the Vaporesso iTank T Dual Mesh Tank, it brings together excellent performance.
Powered by two external 18650 batteries, Armour Octa gives you the advantage of removable cells rather than relying on a built-in battery. The included iTank T uses Vaporesso GTi Dual Mesh coils, while adjustable top airflow allows you to fine-tune the draw to suit your preferred style of direct-to-lung vaping. Batteries are sold separately.

Armour Octa vape kit is particularly well suited to vapers who want more control than a simple pod system can offer. Wattage can be adjusted to match different GTi coils, while the AXON 3.0 chipset provides several operating modes for different vaping preferences.
220W Output with AXON 3.0 Chipset
The centre of the Vaporesso Armour Octa is the AXON 3.0 chipset, which provides a broad output range of 5-220W. It allows more experienced users to tweak their setup and have either a more subdued DTL vape or a more powerful one using appropriate low resistance coils.
The chipset also provides multiple modes, including Eco, Pulse and Boost options, allowing you to balance battery efficiency, consistent output and flavour performance. Temperature Control is also available for compatible setups.
Information such as wattage, battery level, coil resistance and selected mode is displayed clearly on the 0.96-inch TFT screen.
Dual 18650 Battery Vape Mod
Armour Octa vape kit uses two 18650 batteries, giving users the convenience of replaceable cells. No batteries included - 2 high-drain 18650 cells are required separately.
Use a set of matched batteries and always use them in sets. Do not combine different brands, capacities, ages, or charge levels of batteries. USB-C charging includes DC 5V/2.5A charging, but may be best suited for those who frequently use removable batteries and prefer to use an external battery charger.
4X Protection for Greater Durability
Vaporesso Armour pod kit mod is designed to handle the bumps and elements of everyday use with four layers of external protection.
- Waterproof to a depth of 1 metre, with resistance for over 30 minutes.
- Shockproof: Enhanced drop resistance to 1.2m from 26 angles.
- Dustproof: IP69K rating for dust ingress protection.
- Waterjet Resistant: High pressure water cleaning up to 100 bar.
Certification and testing claims apply to the mod only under standardised third-party laboratory conditions.
Advanced Battery Protection
Safety is built into the Armour Octa through its 2X Battery Guard system. The device monitors external battery voltage and can stop output when the voltage difference between batteries exceeds 0.9V. This minimizes risks from mixed or aged or old batteries. Over-temperature and over-voltage protection are also included in the charging system. Charging is stopped if the temperature of the inside of the device exceeds 75°C, which helps to protect the device during charging.
Overtime 2.0 Protection
Accidental long button presses are managed by Vaporesso's Overtime 2.0 protection. A 10-second overtime trigger cuts the output, while repeated overtime triggers within two minutes can automatically switch the device off.
Practical Protection Built Into the Design
The protective design goes beyond the outer shell. A TPU tank cover helps shield the tank, while the cage-style structure provides additional impact protection. A silicone plug protects the USB-C port and an anti-collision pad absorbs impact. Non-slip surface is also soft, making it easy to grip. Silicone finish gives the grip from motorcycle handlebars, ensuring that the product can be used securely even during longer vaping durations.
iTank T with GTi Dual Mesh Coils
The included iTank T is designed for flavourful DTL vaping, combining dual widened airflow with GTi mesh coil technology. Its airflow system allows greater air intake for a smooth draw while helping reduce operating noise.
The tank comes with two GTi Dual Mesh coils:
| Coil |

| GTi 0.2Ω Dual Mesh |
60–75W |
65W |
| GTi 0.4Ω Dual Mesh |
50–60W |

The iTank T is also compatible with the wider Vaporesso GTi coil range, including the new 0.15Ω Dual Mesh option.

| 0.4Ω Mesh |

55W |
| 0.5Ω Mesh |
30–40W |
35W |
The 0.2Ω coil is the higher-powered option, producing a warmer and more intense DTL experience. 0.4Ω version is operating at a lower wattage and can offer a slightly cooler vape, while consuming less power.
iTank T is a GTi-compatible replacement coil, so that allows flexibility in choosing which resistance and wattage you want.
These sub-ohm coils are compatible with high-VG e-liquids, like 70VG/30PG mix. High-VG liquids are for DTL vaping, higher vapour production.
AXON 3.0 and Boost Mode
At the heart of the Vaporesso Octa is the AXON 3.0 chipset, giving the device responsive power delivery and multiple vaping modes. Boost Mode is designed to maintain stable power output throughout the draw, helping provide consistent flavour when vaping at higher wattages.
The GTi coils use aerospace-grade CF cotton, which is designed to withstand sustained high-power vaping and provide a longer coil lifespan compared with standard coil materials, based on Vaporesso's laboratory testing.
Ergonomic Design with Premium Finishes
Despite its rugged construction, the Armour Octa is shaped to sit comfortably in the palm. Its anti-slip surface provides a secure hold, while the protective tank cage adds to the distinctive rugged appearance.
Available finishes include:
- Vintage Green
- Titanium Grey
- Rally Blue
- Aero White
- Dark Black
- Rust Bronze
Designed for DTL Sub-Ohm Vaping
Vaporesso octa pod kit is a model created for DTL (Direct To Lung) vaping and is ideal for higher level vapers with a more open inhale and a desire for higher vapour output. It features adjustable wattage, low-resistance GTi coils and adjustable airflow to customize the vape experience. It is a very large device for a dual battery mod at 146.3 × 30.8 × 55mm.
Armour Octa vs Armour Ultra
Both devices are part of the Armour family of Vaporesso, but they differ in their power and battery designs.
-
With a total of 220W of power, the Armour Octa is powered by two removable 18650 batteries and is a great option for those who value replaceable battery power and increased output.
-
Armour Ultra is integrated with a 5500mAh battery, meanwhile, it provides up to 100W. This is more convenient for the users that do not want to deal with removal batteries.

What Coils Fit Octa vape kit?
The iTank T supplied with the kit is compatible with the Vaporesso GTi coil platform. Available options include different resistances designed for different wattage levels.
The GTi range includes options such as:
- GTi 0.15Ω
- GTi 0.2Ω
- GTi 0.2Ω Dual Mesh
- GTi 0.4Ω
- GTi 0.4Ω Dual Mesh
- GTi 0.5Ω
Always check the recommended wattage printed on the individual coil before use.
What E-Liquid Should You Use?
The Armour Octa vape kit is designed for high powered sub-ohm vaping, making a high-VG e-liquid a more suitable e-liquid for the included GTi coils. One common option for this type of setup is a 70VG/30PG e-liquid. Standard 50/50 freebase e-liquid and products with more nicotine salts tend to work better with lower-powered pod systems than the high-powered GTi coils that come with this kit.
