The Innokin ARES 2 RTA is an innovative MTL atomizer that’s simple to build on. It boasts restrictive hits and saturated flavor. This new rendition features a variety of fixes that plagued the original. This includes most notably the ability to remove the fill membrane, the addition of a wick guide, and even more airflow options. I appreciate that Innokin took on the communities feedback and gave this product another crack. But how much better is it this time around? Keep reading to find out.
Innokin is a popular vape manufacturer that’s been around for almost a decade now. They’ve quickly and quite rapidly grown into one of the most exciting companies as of late, releasing a wide variety of modern devices and tanks. This includes the brand new Sceptre Pod System. Innokin prides itself on always delivering a high-quality product to vapers all over the globe.
RTA
The Innokin ARES 2 measures 24mm’s in diameter and is rather compact for an RTA. It boasts a decently sized 4ml tank that’s made from reinforced Pyrex glass and is tinted black. The main chassis is constructed from superior 304 stainless steel and as a result, the ARES 2 is both durable and lightweight. It also features a subtle engraved pattern on the bottom cap. The overall design looks modern and pretty cool in my opinion.
The Innokin ARES 2 RTA features a contemporary sliding top fill system that comes with a replaceable membrane hole. This helps prevent leaking even when the tank is upside down! The only problem I had was with the 510 drip tip. It works fine and provides a nice restrictive pull, but it doesn’t provide enough room to easily fill. This means you have to remove it before filling. It was a slight annoyance but nothing major.
The Innokin ARES 2 RTA boasts two airflow options that include an external ring with 5 MTL options and also a single deck hole. I personally liked how the airflow ring clicked into place for each airflow option. As a result, I was able to get a really nice specific MTL vape that most other products can’t achieve. Furthermore, airflow right under your coil produces fantastic flavor.
The Innokin ARES 2 RTA deck is very similar to the previous version and is super easy to build on. It can accommodate a single-coil; of moderate size. Either post is secured by good quality Philips head screws. The new wick guide made life so much easier. I would recommend cutting your wicks just above the wicking holes.
Price
The Innokin ARES 2 RTA is available to buy right now. The best price I could find online was $22.21 USD from Sourcemore. Make sure to use our exclusive coupon code ‘SM8’ to get 8% off at checkout. I think that’s more than fair for what you’re getting. If you had issues with the original ARES RTA, I’d recommend upgrading to the ARES 2 RTA!
Packaging
The Innokin ARES 2 RTA comes in two different colors. This includes stainless steel and black. That isn’t a huge amount of variety, so I’m hoping they introduce some more soon. The packaging is fairly minimal, yet pleasing to the eye. There’s even a handy QR code on the back that links to a building tutorial for the ARES 2 RTA. Inside you’ll find your Innokin ARES 2 RTA, 2 x pre-built coils, coil wire, coil building tools, spare drip tip, cotton, parts, and also a user manual.
