The Geekvape Aegis Legend review is ready. This mod has been officially released. Full disclosure, I loved the original Aegis and I have been looking forward to this one for a long time. So, I will be as unbiased as I can but I think I loved this one even before it was released.

I had a chance to give the Geekvape Aegis Legend mod a spin at a trade show. I instantly adored the feel. The cushiony exterior and incredibly rock solid construction makes it a treat to handle. The cushioning is a soft pad underneath the leather portion of the exterior. The rest of the mod is covered by a water resistant LSR silicone. LSR is essentially a rubber molding that is also heat resistant.

Nuts and bolts of the Geekvape Aegis Legend mod. This device is a dual 18650 powered 200 watt mod. The design is the same as the original Aegis vape mod 18650. The shockproof and waterproof design is very popular with vapers. Oh, I forgot, it is also dust proof! More on that in a bit.

The new Geekvape Aegis Legend shares the same state of the art indestructible construction as the original. But this is not a rehash of the original Aegis and there are differences to cover with the Geekvape Aegis Legend review. We will get to those but let's start with the advanced and user friendly AS chipset.

Geekvape Aegis Legend Update!

We interrupt this review of the Geekvape Aegis Legend 200 watt, dual 18650 mod to bring you an important message! We have some new testing data from Mooch to share with you! We'll give you the testing details, and then if you want to continue reading you will get more of the personal details of my thoughts and views on the Legend.

Okay, here are some of the results of stress testing with the Aegis Legend:

• Mooch's stress testing has confirmed that the Aegis Legend has waterproof and shockproof properties that stand up to testing.
• The Legend is not waterproof as in you can scuba dive with it, but it will handle drops into shallow water or gets wet.
• If the mod gets wet, you may see water behind the view screen but don't worry, it will not get into the circuitry and will eventually evaporate.
• The bottom battery door is both vented and waterproof. This is accomplished by 6 small, circular membranes that are designed to break if the batteries need to vent. Do not touch those membranes because they break easily and can compromise waterproofing.

Shockproof Mod Tests:

• The Geekvape Aegis Legend can survive several one meter drops onto tile or other hard flooring.
• If the Legend does drop, check to ensure the batteries are not dented.
• Mooch recommends replacing dented batteries. The batteries may not survive a fall or drop even though the Legend mod may be unharmed by the same incident.

The bottom line is that the Geekvape Aegis Legend is an incredibly durable mod that stands up to real world testing. The vaping is excellent because the Legend is a racehorse in terms of speed and responsiveness. Listen, the tough shock proof and waterproof features are for real, not a gimmick. This mod is terrific for anyone who works in a physical work environment or for anyone who wants something tough and durable.

With that said, we return to the regularly scheduled Geekvape Aegis Legend review! If you got what you came for, great! Don't forget to pick up some vape juice while you are here;) Back to the chipset.

Geekvape Aegis Legend Chipset

The chipset is the software that regulates the mod. A good, responsive chip makes a big difference when vaping. What we look for are mods that are smooth and stable in temperature control vaping mode. In addition, we like to see mods that are lightning fast responsive. The Aegis Legend checks both boxes.

I had a chance to use the Aegis Legend over the course of a few days at another vape expo. I love how it vapes. I only used it in temp control for one afternoon but I did a lot of changes in temp to see how it would respond. The AS chip delivers very smooth temperature control vaping with fantastic stability.

In terms of responsiveness, the Legend fire almost instantaneously. There is virtually no detectable delay.

Vaping Functions

The display screen is clear and easy to read. Also, you can change the colors and that comes in handy when you are outside on a bright day and want some contrast to enhance visibility. The display screen shows wattage and or temperature as well as coil resistance, voltage, amps, and finally a puff counter. To access the menu click the fire button three times. From there you will use the up and down buttons to adjust the settings.

Vaping options:

• Variable wattage mode. 
• Temp control in Nickel, Stainless Steel, Titanium, or TCR.
• Bypass mode.
• VPC - variable power curve, set the power for each second of your vape. For example, I like an initial hard hit that mellows out quickly. So I like 80 watts for the first second, 70 watts for the second, and then down to 50 watts for the rest of the hit. You can set it to suit your tastes.
• Press up and down buttons at the same time to lock and unlock settings.
• Fires atomizers from 0.05 ohms to 3.0 ohms.

Finally the firmware is upgradeable. You can get Geekvape firmware updates here.

Difference between Dual 18650 Aegis Vape Mod and Original Aegis

What we have here at the core is a dual 18650 Aegis vape mod. Many of us have been asking for this and we got it. I mentioned earlier in the Geekvape Aegis Legend review that we will get into some of the differences from the original Aegis and obviously the biggest difference is that the Legend will fire from 5 watts up to 200 watts.

If you have the original Aegis, then you know that it is a 100 watt mod that works with one battery. The original will work with either an 18650 or a 20700. That is not the case with the Legend, which will not take 20700 batteries. The Geekvape Aegis legend only takes 18650 batteries. But, that is fantastic for me because it makes the mod a more comfortable size to handle. And it handles beautifully.

The next difference we have to talk about in our Aegis Legend mod review is the battery door. Obviously a larger battery door is required to accommodate two 18650 batteries. Geekvape does inform us that because the battery door is rectangular vs round, there is a slight decrease is shock resistance. That said, they made the Legend battery door amazingly solid. The battery door is thick and has venting while maintaining its waterproof rating. It seals perfectly with no battery rattles loose parts. The design is rock solid.
