Yocan Evolve Plus XL

How it Works
The Yocan Evolve Plus XL works exactly like most wax pens, although it does have a couple extra features that make it more appealing than your run of the mill option. The base of this contains the 1400mAh battery, and there is just one button for turning it on and engaging the coils. You can’t adjust the temperature or power.

There are five parts that sit on top of the base. The first is a piece that seems to do nothing more than add the option to carry this with a lanyard. After that the atomizer base screws into the battery, then the actual atomizer/coils screws into that. There is a “coil cap” that screws into the top of the atomizer, then a magnetic mouthpiece that sits over top.

Temperature Flexibility
This doesn’t offer any temperature flexibility at all. It’s either on or off, and that’s it. I couldn’t find any details about whether or not the power output is regulated or not, or even what the resistance of the coils is.

Using it suggests the voltage output varies with charge level, meaning you should avoid discharging the battery too low or performance will suffer.

Vapor Quality
I don’t think the vapor quality is very good – and that’s not just because I prefer flavor over strength and cloud size. While the quad coil atomizer makes it very clear that this is designed for big rips, I found using it to be more frustrating than anything.

The main problem is that the coils are positioned along the outside of the chamber, forming what is basically a square when you look inside. This means there is a big opening in the middle of the coils that is just empty space.

There is a raised portion there to encourage the wax to melt and slide towards the coils, but in practice it just doesn’t work well. If you just take a big glob of wax and put it inside, chances are very good that the wax won’t distribute evenly. This is especially true if you tilt the device at all to take a draw.

When you do that, you have a bunch of wax concentrated on 1-2 coils while the rest just start to burn up leftover residue.  The result is less than desirable. The only solution is to try to evenly divide your wax ahead of time and/or not tilt the device.


Manufacturing Quality
The manufacturing quality is average. There’s a lot to like here, but the coil design brings the enjoyability of the entire device down a few levels.

It seems like there was more focus put on the ability to market a four coil atomizer than actually making a good vaporizer.

From what I can tell, there is only the one type of atomizer/coils that will work in this too.


Battery Life
The battery life is good. The 1400mAh capacity seems to last a little over a day with moderate use. If you are a heavy user, you’ll find yourself charging it at least once.

If you only plan on occasional use (once a day or less), this could last you several days to a week.
