This article serves as your quick-start guide for the Geek Vape Aegis Hero. In this instruction manual, we'll provide you with essential information to get you started quickly and help you troubleshoot common issues with your Aegis Hero.

How to Operate the Geek Vape Aegis Hero

The Geek Vape Aegis Hero is a user-friendly device. It's so intuitive that you might prefer reading the included manual after using the device for a bit. But don't worry; we've got you covered. Here's what you need to know to get started quickly:

Charging the Geek Vape Aegis Hero

The Aegis Hero is equipped with a 1,200 mAh battery that can be charged via a Micro USB port. Simply connect the Aegis Hero to your computer's USB port using the provided charging cable. The device's display, located beneath the fire button, will indicate when the battery is fully charged.

Filling the Geek Vape Aegis Hero Pod

One standout feature of the Geek Vape Aegis Hero is its top-mounted filling port. Unlike many other pod systems that require pod removal for refilling, the Aegis Hero allows you to fill the pod while it's still connected to the device. This design also minimizes the risk of leaks. To fill the pod, gently lift the silicone plug with your fingernail to expose the filling hole, fill the pod, and then replace the plug.

Replacing the Geek Vape Aegis Hero Coil

When you notice a decline in flavor quality after using a coil for a few days, it's time to replace it. To do this, empty the pod, remove it from the Aegis Hero, and flip it over. You'll find the atomizer coil on the pod's bottom. Simply remove the old coil and insert a new one. Fill the pod and wait a few minutes before resuming your vaping experience.

Vaping with the Geek Vape Aegis Hero

The Geek Vape Aegis Hero uses a button-activated firing system, with the fire button positioned directly above the device's screen. To vape, hold down the fire button while inhaling from the mouthpiece. The Aegis Hero offers two vaping modes: variable-wattage mode and bypass mode. In variable-wattage mode, you can manually select a power level ranging from 5 to 45 watts using the adjustment buttons located below the device's display. In bypass mode, the Aegis Hero automatically delivers the full available voltage from the battery to the atomizer coil. To switch between modes, press the fire button three times to access the menu, use the adjustment buttons to select your desired vaping mode, and hold the fire button to confirm.

Troubleshooting the Geek Vape Aegis Hero

If your Geek Vape Aegis Hero encounters any issues and doesn't perform as expected, follow this guide to troubleshoot the problem. We provide solutions to common problems you might encounter while using the Aegis Hero.

Problem: Aegis Hero Not Charging

If the Aegis Hero doesn't begin charging when connected to your computer, it could be due to a faulty USB cable. Try using a different micro USB cable to charge the device. Additionally, older computer USB ports can sometimes be unreliable, so try using a different computer. Make sure to check the charging port of the Aegis Hero for dust or dirt, which could impede the connection. If needed, clean it carefully using a toothpick.

Problem: Aegis Hero Not Hitting

If the Aegis Hero doesn't produce vapor when the fire button is pressed, first ensure that you haven't accidentally locked the device. Unlock it by pressing the fire button five times. If the issue persists, the screen should display an error message that explains the problem:

• If you see "Battery Low," charge the device.
• If you see "No Atomizer," the coil may not be making a good connection with the device. Reinstall the atomizer coil and pod and try again.
• If you see "Ohm Too Low" or "Atomizer Short," the current atomizer coil is problematic. Replace it with a new one.

Problem: Weak Hits with the Geek Vape Aegis Hero

The Geek Vape Aegis Hero offers more adjustability compared to most pod-based devices, allowing you to fine-tune your vaping experience. If you're experiencing weak hits, consider these adjustments:

• Modify the airflow collar under the mouthpiece. Closing the airflow results in warmer and more robust vapor, while opening it produces bigger clouds.
• Experiment with a different atomizer coil. The Aegis Hero offers two options with resistances of 0.4 and 0.6 ohms, providing bigger clouds with the 0.4-ohm coil.
• Adjust the nicotine strength of your e-liquid. The current e-liquid's nicotine strength may not meet your preferences.
• Modify the device's wattage. Lower wattage settings produce cooler vapor with milder flavors, while higher wattage settings deliver larger clouds with more intense flavors. If you experience a burning or irritating sensation while inhaling, the wattage may be set too high.

Problem: Gurgling or Popping with the Geek Vape Aegis Hero

The Geek Vape Aegis Hero uses atomizer coils with mesh heating surfaces, designed to prevent popping or gurgling during operation. If your device is making these noises, you might be applying too much air pressure while puffing. Refer to the section on troubleshooting weak hits for guidance. Inhaling more gently will provide a more satisfying experience and prevent excess e-liquid from entering the atomizer coil, which can lead to gurgling.
