The Vaporesso Armour Octa Vape Kit is a powerful dual-battery sub-ohm vape that is designed to meet the needs of DTL vapers who require high-power, long-term power control, as well as more protection to be used in daily use. The Armour Octa features an AXON 3.0 chipset, numerous vaping options, and a 0.96-inch TFT display in a tough, durable casing, with up to 220W of output and two removable 18650 batteries, with a capacity of 2.5A. Sale of batteries is separate.
The kit comes with the 2ml Vaporesso iTank T and two upgraded Vaporesso GTi Dual Mesh coils: a 0.2Ω coil pre-installed and a spare 0.4Ω coil. These low-resistance replacement coils, in combination with the widened adjustable airflow of the tank, are intended to be used in DTL (Direct-to-Lung) vaping, which results in a more open inhalation, greater vapour production, and enhanced flavour when used with appropriate high-VG e-liquid.
In addition to power, the Armour Octa 220W Vape kit is specifically dedicated to durability and battery protection. The mod has IP68 / IP69K level environmental protection and MIL-STD-810H drop protection specified by Vaporesso, as well as voltage-surge, charging-overheat, and Overtime 2.0 protections. This renders the Armour Octa a high-endurance option for accomplished UK sub-ohm vapers seeking a strong two-18650 mod and tank setup with added safeguarding features designed around everyday usage.

Vaporesso Armour Octa 220W Kit is equipped with two removable 18650 vape batteries instead of an inbuilt battery. This allows users who are more experienced to give their devices a substituted battery that matches the charge instead of just charging until the device is full.
The device can produce up to 220W, which offers it significantly more power headroom than a standard pod vape. The provided GTi coils do not need the entire 220W power; their respective recommended wattage limits must always be adhered to.
Armour Octa also has Type-C DC 5V/2.5A, with special overvoltage and temperature protections. According to Vaporesso, it will stop charging once the corresponding internal temperature is over 75°C.
Note: Two 18650 compatible batteries are needed but not supplied with the kit.
The Armour Octa vape mod features the AXON 3.0 chipset of Vaporesso at its core, providing users with a variety of options to control power delivery, instead of limiting the kit to one output mode.
ECO Mode is more concerned with efficiency, where it is more important to conserve battery charge than the maximum output.
Pulse Mode is built on the basis of steady power output to achieve a balanced vaping experience.
Boost Mode offers more powerful continuous delivery of power and is optimised by Vaporesso for a richer flavour.
Temperature Control is also an extra customisation feature that is available to any skilled user who uses compatible coil material.
This versatility can be more suitable for the experienced sub-ohm user who desires to adjust their vape than for the person seeking a simple inhale-activated device.
The extra cover around the dual-battery system of the Armour Octa is one of the biggest changes from other Armour equipment.
The Battery Guard of Vaporesso is a device that measures the voltage variations between the two external batteries. Vaporesso recommends that its output be reduced above a 0.9V voltage difference to minimize risks with greatly mismatched, aged, or worn batteries.
The device also has:
Voltage-surge protection
Charging-overheat protection
Overtime 2.0 protection
Protected USB port
TPU impact protection
These features do not substitute for, but complement, proper practice of external-battery. With a suitable matched pair of compatible batteries, you must ensure that they are stored together and well maintained.
Vaporesso Armour Octa is aimed at both the protection of the body and high-powered vaping. Vaporesso states that the mod has IP68/IP69K environmental protection and MIL-STD-810H drop resistance. The water resistance must be tested to a depth of more than 30 minutes at 1 metre and the resistance to jets of water of high pressure.
An armour-like cage, shock-absorbing areas, a silicone-coated USB port and an anti-slip surface are also integrated into the body.
Notably, these durability tests are only applicable to the mod when it is used under the test conditions of the laboratory, not the entire vape or iTank T. Waterproofing should not be understood as an invitation to intentionally immerse the assembled vape or misuse it.
With a 0.96-inch TFT display, the user can get the data necessary to control a high-powered sub-ohm vape without having to use simple indicator lights. The screen grants access to key vaping data like output settings, the mode of operation chosen, coil data, and battery status.
It comes in handy especially when using a dual-battery, adjustable-power kit where it is more critical to ensure that the amount of wattage and battery health are checked prior to vaping as compared to a constant-output pod system.
In the UK, the Armour Octa is provided with the 2ml iTank T of Vaporesso, as opposed to the 6ml tank provided with the international version. This difference is significant when comparing online between UK and international Armour Octa specifications.
The iTank T uses a convenient top-filling system with expanded adjustable airflow based on high-airflow DTL vaping. This will give you the loose, free-flowing inhale that you would normally get with a sub-ohm tank, and will enable you to control the draw and the intensity of the vapour.
The Vaporesso Armour Octa Kit in the UK can be referred to as having two GTi Dual Mesh coils:
0.2 ohms GTi 2 mesh coil.
Recommended: 60–75W
Vaporesso optimum setting: 65W.
Pre-installed
Specifically crafted to vape DTL.
Higher-temperature vapour and more clouds.
0.4Ω GTi Dual Mesh Coil
Recommended: 50–60W
Vaporesso optimum setting: 55W
Included as a spare
Designed for DTL vaping
Vaporesso also incorporates CF cotton into its newer GTi platform, and asserts a 30 percent longer coil lifespan than its mentioned standard coils during Vaporesso Lab testing.
Since both of the supplied coils employ a mesh heating structure, a higher surface area can be in contact with the wick and heat the e-liquid more evenly, facilitating intense flavour and vapour generation at sub-ohm power settings.

The Vaporesso Armour Octa is a sub-ohm DTL vape kit, so it should be used with thicker, lower-nicotine, high-VG e-liquids rather than the 50/50 nic salts used in small MTL pod kits. The high-VG formulations are used to supplement the low-resistance GTi mesh coils and open airflow to facilitate the increased vapour production anticipated in DTL vaping. Never use any e-liquid as a replacement for all vape juices, and always pick out a suitable e-liquid to use with the GTi coil you have selected and the desired output.
Install two suitable matched 18650 batteries into the mod, observing the correct polarity.
Install the provided GTi coil into the iTank T in case it is not there.
Before using, prime a new coil using an appropriate e-liquid.
Open the iTank T top-fill system and pour 2ml of high-VG e-liquid into the tank.
Seal the filling system.
Give a new coil about 5-10 minutes to become completely saturated.
Connect the iTank T to the Armour Octa mod.
Turn the device on and choose a suitable operating mode.
Adjust the wattage by setting it within the recommended range for your GTi coil.
Regulate the air to your desired DTL draw.
Vape by pressing the fire button and inhaling.

The Vaporesso Armour Octa 220W Vape Kit is designed to cater to the needs of experienced DTL users who require significantly greater power and adjustability than is permitted by a typical pod kit.
Its dual removable 18650 battery, AXON 3.0 chipset, 220W maximum power, GTi Dual Mesh coil, adjustable iTank T airflow, reinforced mod, and Battery Guard system cover performance and durability, as well as external battery protection, respectively.
The outcome is an especially powerful choice for users who seek a Vaporesso sub-ohm vape kit in the UK that has removable batteries, can use high-VG, and can significantly control their DTL vape.
Purchase the Vaporesso Armour Octa Vape Kit with WizVape, along with the coils and high-VG e-liquids compatible with the Vaporesso GTi, so that it will be easy to acquire the consumables needed to continue using them in a single location.
The Octa's UK 2ml iTank T configuration includes two GTi Dual Mesh coils and the new Armour features of Vaporesso, allowing an intermediate sub-ohm vaper to have a full starting system, and all you need to do is add two battery types of your choice and your preferred e-liquid.
70/30 VG/PG or above is the recommended ratio for the Vaporesso Armour Octa Vape Kit, the thicker consistency handles higher wattage well and delivers the dense vapour and rich flavour that DTL vaping is known for. It is built for direct-to-lung vaping. Stick to freebase e-liquids at 3mg or lower with this kit, nicotine salts are designed for low-wattage MTL use and will deliver a throat hit far too intense at DTL output levels.
Each pod or tank holds 2ml of e-liquid with top fill for convenient refilling. For the best results at DTL wattages, reach for a 70/30 or higher-VG freebase liquid, the thicker blend handles the higher output well and produces the kind of cloud and flavour DTL vaping is built for.
