Yocan Kodo Star Box Mod 400mAh – £5.99
The Yocan Kodo Star Box Mod 400mAh is a compact universal 510-thread battery designed for vapers who demand reliable performance and convenience in a pocket-sized format. At just £5.99 (down from £7.99), this dedicated mod suits anyone using standard 510 cartridges and seeking fast charging, precise voltage control and an intuitive LED display—all at an entry-level price point.
This is a standalone box mod battery, not a complete kit; you’ll pair it with your own 510 cartridge. The Kodo Star houses a 400mAh lithium cell with Type-C fast charging—fully charged in under an hour (0.8 hours stated, approximately 48 minutes)—and boasts variable voltage output spanning 1.8V to 4.2V, adjustable in 0.1V increments for precise flavour and vapour tuning. The device features a distinctive full LED display with a galactic effect to monitor battery life, current voltage setting and time remaining at a glance. A 10-second preheating function warms the cartridge before each use, whilst a three-button control layout and 1-hour auto-shutoff safety feature keep operation straightforward and battery drain minimal. The universal 510-thread connection accommodates virtually all standard 510 carts on the market, including wider 2g cartridges. Dimensions are compact at 57×23×18.5mm, making it ideal for discreet carry. One Kodo Star Mod is included; note that Yocan recommends retaining the original packaging or photographing the serial number for warranty purposes.

How it compares
The Yocan Kodo Star is a dedicated mod battery—it provides only the power source and control interface, requiring a separate 510 cartridge to function. Unlike all-in-one pod kits which integrate battery, tank and coil into one sealed system, the Kodo Star offers modularity and flexibility; you can swap cartridges freely and tailor voltage to each one’s profile. Compared to other 400mAh mods, the Kodo Star distinguishes itself through its full LED display (rather than a simple indicator light), rapid Type-C charging, fine-tuned 0.1V voltage steps, and the practical preheating function. It sits between budget stick batteries and larger dual-battery box mods in both size and power output, making it ideal for portable vaping without the bulk of high-wattage devices. If you prefer a complete, all-included starter solution, a pod kit may suit you better; for cartridge flexibility and voltage precision at a bargain price, the Kodo Star delivers genuine value.
Frequently asked questions
What’s the difference between the Yocan Kodo Star and the Kodo Pro?
Both feature a 400mAh battery and 1.8V–4.2V variable voltage. The key differences are: the Kodo Star includes a 270° Galaxy OLED display and supports auto-draw activation, whilst the Kodo Pro has a standard OLED screen and button-only activation. The Kodo Star is the more advanced model with a larger display and draw-activation option.
How long does the Kodo Star take to charge fully?
The Yocan Kodo Star charges fully in approximately 48 minutes (0.8 hours) via its Type-C charging port. This is notably faster than micro-USB charged mods, making it convenient for throughout-the-day topping-up.
What cartridges work with the Kodo Star mod?
The Kodo Star has a universal 510-thread connection, so it’s compatible with virtually all standard 510 cartridges on the market, including wider 2g cartridges. You’re not limited to a single brand—this modularity is one of the mod’s main advantages.
Will my Kodo Star battery turn itself off?
Yes. The Kodo Star has a built-in 1-hour auto-shutoff safety feature. If there’s no button activity or draw detected for 1 hour, the device automatically powers down to conserve battery and prevent unnecessary drain. You simply press a button to reactivate it.
How is the Kodo Star different from a complete pod kit?
The Kodo Star is a mod battery only—it requires a separate 510 cartridge to work. A complete pod kit includes the battery, tank, coil and usually e-liquid all in one package. The Kodo Star offers flexibility (you can swap any 510 cartridge) and precise voltage tuning, whilst a pod kit is simpler and more all-in-one. Choose the Kodo Star if you already have cartridges or want modularity; choose a pod kit if you want a complete, ready-to-vape system.
