Zeus Smite Review

The Canada-based Zeus Vaporizers brand first got its start with a wax pen called the Thunder.

How To Use the Zeus Smite?

The Zeus Smite vape is extremely easy to use and is operated with only one single button. To remove the glass mouthpiece, just move the panel over to reveal the compartment and slide the mouthpiece out. Then, load up your dry herb after sliding the panel out to reveal the chamber. Attach the mouthpiece to the top and hit the power button 5 times rapidly. You’re ready to go. 

Zeus Smite Temperature Settings

The Zeus Smite vaporizer has three pre-set temperatures: 196 Celsius, 204 Celsius, and 221 Celsius. The LED light around the power button indicates the current temperature – blue is the lowest, purple is the middle, and red is the highest.

The Zeus Smite vape heats up in about 45 seconds, which is neither the best, nor the worst. The majority of Zeus Smite vape users seem to get the best experience with the mid-range temperature, as the smoothness is still there and the clouds are still big enough to satisfy. The more modern Zeus Arc GTS Hub also uses this same preset temperature setup.

Zeus Smite Heating System and Chamber

The Zeus Smite vaporizer uses conduction heating. The chamber is made from ceramic and isn’t the biggest you’ll find on the market today – but that is to be expected with such a compact device. Most users get about 5 solid rips before they need to reload.

Zeus Smite Vapor Quality

The Zeus Smite vape has some solid vapor quality, and the production is good as well. The ceramic heating chamber and glass mouthpiece help preserve the flavor profiles and terpenes of you favorite strains. The smoothness is pretty good too, and it’s not too harsh on the throat.

What’s the Zeus Smite Battery Life?

The Zeus Smite vaporizer has some of the most impressive battery life we’ve ever seen, lasting up to a full three hours of continuous use. We were really impressed with the strong lithium-ion battery, especially because of how compact this powerful little unit is. The long battery life is a welcome feature, because you might want to have two or three bowls in one session, due to the smaller size of the heating chamber.

Aesthetics and Manufacturing Quality

The Zeus Smite build is solid and durable. It doesn’t feel cheaply made. We can tell that the Zeus brand paid attention to producing a well-made device. Its shell is made of anodized aluminum, and features a ceramic heating chamber. Its dimensions are 10.4 X 6 X 2.2 cm.

The glass mouthpiece is stored internally when not in use, which is a nice feature. It looks similar to the Utillian Vaporizer units like the 421 and 420, and cost about the same. The Zeus Smite looks a little bit more attractive than those devices, we think.

Portability and Discreetness

The Zeus Smite vape is super compact and portable, and will easily fit in the palm of any hand or in any bag. The edges on the Zeus Smite vape are nice and rounded, and the rectangular shape is easy to handle. The fact that the mouthpiece fits easily inside of the device when not in use is a nice touch, and helps to increase its portability.

If you’re trying to be discreet and you’re in the dark, the LED lights might attract some unwanted attention, but you can easily conceal those with your finger. Setting the temperature on the lowest setting also keeps the odor to a minimum, which helps to add to the discreetness. 

What’s in the Zeus Smite kit?

The Zeus Smite vape comes with a USB charger, a set of screens, a packing tool, a cleaning brush, and a glass mouthpiece. The unit also comes with a 1-year warranty.

How to Clean the Zeus Smite?

Most users don’t seem to need to spend too much time keeping their Zeus Smite vaporizer good and clean. Take the cleaning brush to the heating chamber and the screens after a session to remove any build up or residue.

It’s a good idea to also take some Q-Tips soaked in isopropyl alcohol to the glass mouthpiece to remove any kind of bacteria, especially if you’re passing the device around and enjoying a nice session with friends. Keeping any vaporizer clean is essential for ensuring that you always get the best tasting hits.

Adding another Zeus product to your order, like the Grime Sticks, will help you keep the unit nice and clean for a long time. These handy sticks are easy to use and let you avoid the hassle of dipping your Q-Tips in the alcohol container and risk potential spills.

Summary and Comparison

For the price of the Zeus Smite vaporizer, you’re getting a solid device that offers an impressively long battery life, durable build, high portability and solid vapor quality. It’s not the most advanced portable vaporizer on the planet, but that’s okay – especially for newbies. More experienced vaporizer users might want a device that can pack more dry herbs, comes with the option for vaping concentrates, uses precision temperature controls and uses convection heating.

A comparison to the Zeus Smite vape is something from the Utillian brand – The Utillian 722 is priced similarly and also has a similar build.
