π Hello VAPE.HK readers! With Halloween π treats and Thanksgiving π¦ gatherings on the way, itβs a great time to talk about a vape that might last from costume parties to turkey leftovers. Not long ago, we reviewed the original NEXA ULTRA β a high-capacity rechargeable disposable famous for its clear tank and steady flavor. Today, weβre taking a friendly hands-on look at the new NEXA ULTRA 2 (or ULTRA II): whatβs new, how it performs, and whether itβs worth the upgrade. π
What is the NEXA ULTRA 2?
The ULTRA 2 is NEXAβs latest 50 000-puff class disposable vape. It keeps the brandβs transparent tank and dual-mode power system but comes in a slightly smaller body, adds a bigger battery, and even includes a βlights-offβ option for stealthy use. Itβs still USB-C rechargeable and holds about 20 mL of e-liquid in a two-part tank. Expect a smooth mouth-to-lung draw and around 15 flavors at launch.

Vaping performance & user experience
After several days of testing β from Halloween party prep to lazy Sunday grocery runs β the NEXA ULTRA 2 proved itself as a reliable everyday vape. It feels instantly familiar in the hand: compact, slightly curved, and comfortable for long use. The draw is a medium-tight MTL that balances airflow and resistance beautifully β not too restricted, yet not airy like some high-puff disposables. Each puff feels smooth and controlled, producing dense vapor that satisfies without overwhelming the throat. π¨
Flavor quality is the standout strength. From fruity blends like Blue Razz Ice to candy-sweet White Gummy, the taste profile remains vivid, clean, and layered even after hundreds of puffs. Thereβs no burnt edge or artificial aftertaste, thanks to the sealed βJuicy Lockβ tank that prevents early oxidation. Whether in short bursts or long draws, the ULTRA 2 keeps its flavor notes consistent all day β a trait many budget disposables canβt match.
Normal mode delivers a cool, silky puff ideal for chain vaping and casual use, while Turbo mode adds power and warmth, giving you a thicker, more satisfying hit closer to a restricted-lung draw. The difference is noticeable: Turbo brings out deeper sweetness and fuller vapor, perfect for those moments when you crave intensity. Switching modes mid-day feels seamless β a small but practical feature for users who like variety. π¬π
Two design improvements truly stand out. First, the clear tank is not just for looks β itβs functional. You can easily track your e-liquid level, preventing dry hits and helping plan a recharge before youβre empty. Second, the new Dark Mode addresses a common complaint from the first ULTRA. No more glowing LED every puff β a long-press instantly turns off the light, making it perfect for night vaping, watching movies, or relaxing without drawing attention. π
The dual mesh coil ensures stable heating, even distribution, and excellent wicking from the first puff to the last. During testing, there were zero leaks, gurgles, or flooding β impressive for a 20 mL disposable. The cotton stays well-saturated, and vapor output remains consistent even after several recharges. The press-to-go tank system deserves credit here: by keeping the liquid sealed until activation, it minimizes premature soaking and flavor degradation.
In real-world terms, the puff count varies with personal use β long puffs or constant Turbo mode will shorten lifespan. Still, the ULTRA 2 comfortably outlasts typical 3 000 β 10 000-puff disposables by a wide margin. The combination of a large tank, efficient dual-coil system, and rechargeable 900 mAh battery gives this device real staying power. In short, itβs built for vapers who value consistency, flavor integrity, and convenience over time β a dependable companion from the first fill to the final puff. β
How to use (itβs easy!)
- Unbox it and check the clear tank and main body with the LED panel.
- Press the tank in place until it clicks β this breaks the seal and lets liquid flow to the coil. No priming needed!
- Charge via USB-C if needed; a quick top-up goes a long way.
- Pick your mode: Normal = longer battery life; Turbo = warmer, bigger hits.
- Dark Mode (optional): long-press to turn off lights for low-key vaping.
- Inhale to vape (draw-activated). The clear tank shows exactly how much juice is left.
Tip: If the flavor fades when nearly empty, tilt the device slightly to let the last drops reach the wick.
