Vaporesso Armour Ultra Guide
Armour Ultra: Serious Power in a Rugged, Compact Mod
The Armour Ultra takes Vaporesso's popular Armour design in a new direction. Earlier models such as the Armour S and Armour Max rely on removable batteries, but the Armour Ultra packs a massive 5500mAh rechargeable battery into the mod itself. That means excellent battery life without the need to purchase, charge or carry separate 18650 or 21700 cells.
It's also designed to handle considerably more punishment than an ordinary vape mod. Water-resistant seals, reinforced construction and shock protection help it cope with the occasional accident, while the powerful AXON chipset delivers the adjustable performance that experienced DTL vapers expect.
Combined with the included iTank T, this is a complete high-powered vaping setup that offers a great balance of flavour, vapour production, battery life and everyday practicality.

Vaporesso Armour Ultra Mod: Key Features
The mod is the real centrepiece of the Armour Ultra kit. Vaporesso has combined a very large battery with advanced power controls and a durable outer casing, creating a device that's particularly well suited to regular, high-wattage vaping.
5500mAh Battery with Fast Charging
The integrated 5500mAh battery is one of the Armour Ultra's biggest advantages. Vaporesso claims that it can deliver up to three days of use under its laboratory testing conditions, although actual battery life will depend on your wattage and vaping habits.
For a powerful DTL kit, that much battery capacity is particularly useful. You'll spend less time worrying about your next charge, and there's no need to own an external battery charger.
USB-C charging supports 9V/2A or 5V/3A with a suitable charger. A protective cover helps keep moisture and debris away from the charging port.
IP68, IP69K and Drop-Test Protection
The Armour Ultra mod has been independently tested to IP68 and IP69K standards for resistance to water and dust. It has also passed MIL-STD-810H drop testing from a height of 1.2 metres.
Reinforced outer construction, protected controls and a sturdy metal frame help the device withstand everyday knocks and bumps. It's particularly appealing if you regularly carry your vape outdoors or work in a demanding environment.
These durability ratings apply to the mod itself, not the glass tank or the assembled kit.
5–100W Power and AXON Chipset
The Armour Ultra gives you adjustable output from 5W all the way to 100W. That range provides plenty of flexibility for different GTi coil resistances and allows you to tailor the warmth and vapour production of your vape.
Vaporesso's AXON chipset manages the power delivery and provides several operating modes. You can favour stronger initial output, consistent performance or more economical battery usage depending on your preferences.
The chipset also includes protections against problems such as short circuits, low battery voltage and overheating.
Colour Display, Smart Mode and Locking
A 0.96-inch TFT colour screen displays essential information, including wattage, battery level, coil resistance and the selected operating mode.
The Smart function can recommend a suitable power setting when a compatible GTi coil is installed. It's a useful starting point when changing between different coil resistances.
A physical locking slider helps prevent accidental activation or changes to settings when carrying the device. You can also customise the display theme and brightness through the settings menu.
Understanding the Armour Ultra's Four Vaping Modes
The AXON chipset gives the Armour Ultra more flexibility than a basic variable-wattage mod. You can choose between four operating modes, each designed for a different style of power delivery.
High Output
Boost Mode
Boost Mode prioritises strong initial performance, helping the coil produce substantial flavour and vapour as soon as you press the firing button.
It's a particularly good choice for vapers who enjoy a warm, powerful DTL inhale. Vaporesso has also focused on output stability, aiming to keep the experience consistent throughout each puff.
Balanced Output
Pulse Mode
Pulse Mode regulates power delivery during the puff to maintain consistent heating. This helps produce a steady balance of flavour and vapour without the more aggressive initial character of Boost Mode.
It's a good everyday setting if you want reliable, repeatable performance from your favourite e-liquid.
Battery Saving
Eco Mode
Eco Mode uses a more conventional constant-wattage output and is designed to make more economical use of the battery.
If you're away from home for the day or simply prefer a slightly gentler vape, Eco Mode can help extend the time between charges compared with Boost or Pulse Mode.
Advanced Settings
Temperature Control Mode
Temperature Control (TC) Mode is intended for experienced vapers using compatible temperature-control coil materials, such as suitable nickel, titanium or stainless-steel builds.
It allows you to manage the heating temperature rather than relying solely on wattage. The included GTi Dual Mesh coils are intended for normal wattage-based operation, so Boost, Pulse or Eco are the practical choices for the supplied tank and coils.
Which mode should you use? Boost is a good starting point if you want the most energetic DTL experience, Pulse offers a balanced everyday vape and Eco is useful when conserving battery power is your priority.
Vaporesso iTank T: The Tank Included with the UK Kit
The Armour Ultra comes with the 2ml Vaporesso iTank T (Dual Mesh Version). This sub-ohm tank is designed for high-powered DTL vaping and brings several practical improvements to the traditional vape tank format.
Although Simply ELiquid doesn't currently sell the iTank T separately, it's included with the complete Armour Ultra kit. You'll also receive two GTi Dual Mesh coils so you can try different wattages and vapour outputs.
Adjustable Top Airflow
The iTank T draws air through adjustable openings near the top of the tank. This reduces the opportunities for e-liquid to escape through the airflow system compared with traditional bottom-airflow designs.
The enlarged airflow channels allow plenty of air to reach the coil, supporting the high vapour output expected from a powerful DTL kit.
You can rotate the airflow adjustment ring to customise the draw. Opening it provides an airier inhale with greater vapour production, while closing it slightly produces a more restricted, warmer vape.
Convenient Sliding Top Fill
The iTank T has a sliding top cap that reveals the filling port. Simply push the top section open, add your e-liquid and slide it securely closed again.
There's no need to unscrew the entire top of the tank or remove it from the mod whenever you need a refill.
This convenience is particularly useful with the UK 2ml version, which will naturally require more frequent filling than the larger-capacity international models.
GTi Dual Mesh Technology
The latest GTi Dual Mesh coils use a dual-layer mesh heating structure designed to heat the wick more evenly. This helps produce rich flavour and consistent vapour while reducing localised overheating.
Vaporesso reports up to 30% longer coil life compared with its previous design under laboratory conditions. Actual results will depend on your wattage, e-liquid and usage.
The combination of Dual Mesh heating and generous airflow makes the iTank T particularly suitable for fruit, dessert and other high-VG e-liquids.
510 Connection and Protective Design
The tank attaches to the Armour Ultra using a standard 510 connection, and Vaporesso has reinforced the mod's connector to withstand regular use.
The kit also incorporates protective elements around the tank to help guard against everyday knocks.
The iTank T uses replaceable GTi coils rather than disposable cartridges, so you can keep using the same tank when a coil reaches the end of its life.
UK tank capacity: This version of the Armour Ultra includes a 2ml iTank T to comply with UK requirements. The larger 6ml tank sometimes shown in international product videos and photographs is not the standard UK configuration.
Which Vaporesso GTi Coils Work with the Armour Ultra?
The iTank T supports the Vaporesso GTi coil platform, including both the newer Dual Mesh coils and the original single-mesh designs. This makes it easy to experiment with different resistance and wattage combinations.
The kit includes a 0.2Ω Dual Mesh coil pre-installed and a spare 0.4Ω Dual Mesh coil. Once those reach the end of their usable lives, you can continue using the tank with standard Vaporesso GTi Mesh Replacement Coils available from Simply ELiquid.
| Coil | Wattage | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| 0.2Ω GTi Dual Mesh | 60–75W | Included pre-installed. Warm DTL vaping with substantial flavour and vapour. |
| 0.4Ω GTi Dual Mesh | 50–60W | Included spare. A slightly cooler DTL vape with lower power consumption. |
| 0.15Ω GTi Mesh | 75–90W | Compatible replacement for powerful DTL vaping and maximum cloud production. |
| 0.2Ω GTi Mesh | 60–75W | Compatible replacement for a balanced high-output DTL experience. |
| 0.4Ω GTi Mesh | 50–60W | Compatible replacement for everyday DTL vaping at moderate wattages. |
| 0.5Ω GTi Mesh | 30–40W | Compatible replacement for a gentler, lower-powered vape with reduced e-liquid and battery consumption. |
Need replacement coils? Shop our Vaporesso GTi Mesh Coils, available in packs of five. All four standard mesh resistances are compatible with the Armour Ultra's iTank T, even though the kit originally comes with Dual Mesh coils.
What E-Liquid Should You Use with the Armour Ultra?
The Armour Ultra is primarily a DTL vape kit, so it works best with the thicker e-liquids typically used in higher-powered sub-ohm tanks.
Recommended
High-VG E-Liquid
A 70/30 VG/PG e-liquid is an excellent match for the included GTi Dual Mesh coils. Higher VG content helps produce smooth, substantial clouds of vapour and is well suited to the large wicking openings of sub-ohm coils.
Lower nicotine strengths, such as 3mg or 6mg, are generally preferable because a powerful DTL vape delivers a much greater volume of vapour with each puff.
Less Suitable
High-Strength Nic Salts
The included coils are not intended for the high nicotine concentrations commonly used in compact MTL pod kits.
A powerful sub-ohm tank can deliver an unexpectedly large amount of nicotine when used with 10mg or 20mg salts. Those e-liquids are generally better suited to small, low-powered devices.
Follow the coil manufacturer's recommendations when choosing your liquid.

How to Set Up Your Armour Ultra
Although the Armour Ultra offers advanced settings, getting started with the supplied tank is straightforward.
- Charge the battery. Connect the mod to a suitable USB-C charger using the supplied cable. The screen will display charging information.
- Check the coil. The iTank T comes with a 0.2Ω GTi Dual Mesh coil pre-installed. Make sure it's seated correctly before filling.
- Fill the tank. Slide open the top cap and fill the 2ml tank through the filling port. Close the cap securely.
- Allow the coil to prime. Leave the filled tank standing for at least five minutes so the cotton wick can absorb the e-liquid.
- Turn on the mod. Press the firing button five times quickly to switch the Armour Ultra on.
- Choose your settings. Select your preferred mode and begin near the bottom of the coil's recommended wattage range.
- Adjust the airflow. Rotate the airflow ring on top of the tank until you find a comfortable draw.
- Start vaping. Hold the firing button while inhaling, then release it when you've finished.
Everyday tip: Use the locking slider when carrying the device in a pocket or bag, and make sure the USB-C port cover is securely closed when you're not charging.
Who Should Buy the Vaporesso Armour Ultra?
Experienced DTL Vapers
If you prefer a powerful direct-to-lung vape with adjustable wattage and substantial vapour production, the Armour Ultra has plenty to offer.
Its 100W maximum output, versatile GTi coil compatibility and four operating modes allow you to tailor the experience to your preferences.
Vapers Who Prioritise Battery Life
The 5500mAh battery makes this an especially attractive option for people who dislike carrying spare batteries or charging their devices frequently.
Its large built-in battery provides impressive capacity in a relatively compact package.
People Who Need a Durable Vape
The reinforced casing, water and dust resistance, and tested drop protection make the Armour Ultra well suited to people who regularly carry their vape outdoors or in demanding environments.
The mod is considerably more rugged than a typical unprotected box mod, although the glass tank still requires appropriate care.
Vapers Moving Away from Removable Batteries
If you enjoy traditional mods but want something simpler, the Armour Ultra removes the need to manage separate battery cells.
You still get a standard 510 connection, advanced output controls and a full-sized sub-ohm tank, but with convenient built-in USB-C charging.
Who might prefer something else? If you mainly use high-strength nicotine salts, prefer a very tight MTL draw or want a small pocket-sized device, a lower-powered pod kit may be more suitable. You can explore other options in our Vaporesso Vape Kits collection.
Vaporesso Armour Ultra FAQs
What tank comes with the Vaporesso Armour Ultra in the UK?
The UK Armour Ultra kit comes with a 2ml Vaporesso iTank T (Dual Mesh Version). This tank features sliding top filling, adjustable top airflow and compatibility with the Vaporesso GTi coil family.
Does the Armour Ultra use standard GTi mesh coils?
Yes. Although the kit includes newer GTi Dual Mesh coils, the iTank T also accepts standard GTi Mesh coils in 0.15Ω, 0.2Ω, 0.4Ω and 0.5Ω resistances. You can purchase compatible GTi replacement coils from Simply ELiquid.
How long does the Armour Ultra battery last?
The built-in 5500mAh battery is designed for extended use, with Vaporesso claiming up to three days under laboratory testing conditions. Actual battery life depends on wattage, puff duration and how frequently you vape. Higher output settings will naturally drain the battery more quickly.

Is the Vaporesso Armour Ultra waterproof?
The mod has IP68 and IP69K water and dust resistance ratings, as well as MIL-STD-810H drop-test certification. However, these ratings apply to the mod rather than the glass tank or complete assembled kit. Avoid unnecessary water exposure, and never charge the device while the charging port is wet.
What's the difference between Boost, Pulse and Eco Mode?
Boost Mode prioritises powerful initial performance and vapour production. Pulse Mode provides more balanced, consistent power delivery throughout the puff, while Eco Mode uses a more economical output style to help conserve battery life.
Can the Armour Ultra use other tanks?
Yes. The Armour Ultra has a standard 510 connection, allowing it to accommodate many compatible vape tanks. Check the tank's physical dimensions, coil resistance and power requirements before fitting it. The device provides up to 100W of adjustable output.
What e-liquid is best for the Armour Ultra?
With the included GTi Dual Mesh coils, a high-VG e-liquid such as a 70/30 VG/PG blend is an excellent choice. Lower nicotine strengths such as 3mg or 6mg are generally more suitable for this powerful DTL setup than high-strength nicotine salts.
Is the Armour Ultra suitable for beginners?
The controls are straightforward once you've learned the basics, but the Armour Ultra is primarily intended for vapers who are comfortable with high-powered DTL devices. Complete beginners or people switching directly from cigarettes may find a smaller MTL pod kit easier to use.
