The Lookah Snail 2.0, with its snail-like shape, brings a unique and compact look to the 510-thread batteries market. Designed for discreet use, it features a 350 mAh battery that's rechargeable via Micro-USB. Its decently small size fits in the palm of most user's hands, making the Snail 2.0 a practical yet subtle option for those seeking a 510-thread battery that gets the job done.
Lookah Snail 510 Features:
Single-button operation
350 mAh battery
Micro-USB Charging
10-second session timer
3 Voltage Settings
Design and Build Quality
Constructed from zinc alloy, the Snail 2.0 has a somewhat solid feel in comparison to most units at this price, which indicates a thoughtful material choice in manufacturing and ok value at its price point. Its design includes a side screw-in mechanism for the 510 cartridge, ensuring secure attachment and preventing occasional drops. A flat bottom allows the device to stand upright on flat surfaces, safeguarding against falls and oil leaks that could potentially damage the cartridge.
Voltage Settings and Pre-heat Function
The Snail 2.0 offers three voltage settings (3.2V, 3.6V, and 4.1V) and pre-heat functionality, each setting indicated by colored LEDs (blue for the lowest setting, purple for the middle one, and white LED for the highest voltage setting). Press the power button twice to cycle between the voltage settings you desire for your session. Usually, lower voltage settings are catered towards more flavor in the vapor production, while the higher settings produce more clouds in each puff but slightly sacrifice the vapor flavor.
Battery Life and Charging
With a 350 mAh battery, the Snail 2.0 supports about 30 to 40 puffs per charge, according to the manufacturer. While sufficient for casual use, this may fall short of the newer models like the Litl Bit that offer up to 500 mAh. Moreover, the Snail 2.0 is compatible with the Micro-USB charger only, which became a less preferable way of charging in comparison to the standard already USB-C. Micro-USB charging means you'll need an extra cable on the go, and it takes longer to charge than USB-C. Despite its charging limitation, it still provides adequate performance for its price range. The necessity of carrying an extra cable and the longer charging time might be a drawback for some, but the device's protective features and overall functionality offer a decent enough package for those on a budget.
