VOOPOO Argus G4 Mini Pod Kit 35W Review: Specs, Price and Who It Suits

What it is

The VOOPOO Argus G4 Mini Pod Kit 35W is a compact, refillable pod system aimed at vapers who want a portable all-in-one device without giving up meaningful power output. It sits in VOOPOO’s well-established Argus line-up, pairing a small form factor with a 35W power ceiling that’s considerably more flexible than many entry-level pod kits. Rather than relying on prefilled or disposable pods (which, as a reminder, have been illegal to sell or supply in the UK since 1 June 2025), this is a refillable system that uses replaceable coils and top-fill pods, giving you ongoing control over your e-liquid choice.

It’s currently listed at £7.49 at Vapesourcing.uk, making it one of the more affordable pod kits on our deals page at the time of writing.

Key specifications

Below is what’s confirmed by the manufacturer and retailer information. Any specification not stated here (such as exact battery capacity in mAh or precise pod volume) has been left out rather than guessed.

As with all pod kits legally sold in the UK, any pods used with this device are restricted to a 2ml maximum capacity, and compatible nic salt or freebase e-liquids are capped at 20mg/ml nicotine strength in bottles no larger than 10ml. These are standard UK regulatory limits rather than device-specific claims from VOOPOO.

Who it suits and who it does not

This kit looks well suited to vapers who already have some experience and want a genuinely pocketable backup or daily-carry device without stepping down to a low-wattage starter kit. The 35W ceiling means it can run medium-resistance coils at a satisfying output, so it should appeal to both committed mouth-to-lung vapers and those who prefer a slightly airier, restricted direct-lung draw. Anyone wanting a simple, no-fuss refillable system that avoids glass tanks and awkward coil swaps may also find the pod-based design appealing.

It’s probably not the right choice for sub-ohm cloud chasers, since the specification is clearly built around portability and MTL/RDL vaping rather than high-wattage, high-vapour setups. Vapers who want a single device to last years without any coil or pod replacement might also want to look further up VOOPOO’s range, since this is positioned as an affordable, compact option rather than a premium long-term investment piece.

How it compares on paper

Within VOOPOO’s own range on our site, the Argus G4 Mini sits at the entry point in terms of price and power. The VOOPOO VINCI E80 Pod Mod Kit 80W at £18.49 more than doubles the power output, making it a better fit for vapers who want to push into sub-ohm territory or simply want more headroom. The Voopoo Argus G3 Vape Kit at £26.99 sits further up the range again, likely offering a larger battery and build quality aimed at longer-term daily use rather than a compact backup.

At the other end of the scale, the VOOPOO Argus Z3 Pod Kit 20W at £4.29 is cheaper still but caps out at 20W, which will suit strict MTL vapers but offers noticeably less flexibility than the Argus G4 Mini’s 35W ceiling. On paper, the Argus G4 Mini looks like a reasonable middle ground: more power and versatility than the Z3, at a fraction of the outlay required for the VINCI E80 or Argus G3.

For those already invested in the Argus ecosystem, the VooPoo Argus Replacement Pod (Pack of 3) at £8.99 is worth factoring into any running-cost comparison, since replacement pods are a recurring cost with any refillable pod system.

Price and value

At £7.49, the Argus G4 Mini Pod Kit is priced as an impulse-buy or backup device rather than a flagship purchase, and the specification on offer at that price point looks competitive against similarly compact pod kits. Running costs will depend on coil and pod replacement frequency, plus e-liquid spend. It’s worth noting that, as of 1 October 2026, the UK’s new Vaping Products Duty applies a flat £2.20 per 10ml of e-liquid, which will affect the ongoing cost of e-liquid regardless of which device it’s used in. This doesn’t change the value of the device itself, but it’s a relevant factor when budgeting for total running costs going forward.

Given the low upfront price, replacement pods and coils are the main ongoing expense to factor in, and the availability of the Argus Replacement Pod pack on our site makes it straightforward to budget for those.

Verdict on paper

Based purely on its published specification and price, the VOOPOO Argus G4 Mini Pod Kit 35W looks like a well-specified, low-cost entry into refillable pod vaping. The 35W power ceiling gives it more flexibility than many budget pod kits, while the compact form factor and top-fill pod system keep things simple for day-to-day use. It won’t suit sub-ohm vapers chasing big clouds, but for MTL and restricted direct-lung vapers wanting a portable, affordable device, it’s worth a look at £7.49 on our deals page.
