The first dry botanical vaporizer from ZEUSArsenal, the Zeus Smite, took the market by storm. It quickly rose to become our best-selling unit and it has been praised by critics like KnowTechie for its 3 hour battery life, ease of use and very affordable price point as a great starter vape. While the Smite was receiving feedback from both reviewers and connoisseurs, ZEUSArsenal was already responding by working on the second generation model which caters to those who want premium features in a great vape under $200. So, without further ado, we are very excited to bring you the exclusive first review of the new and improved Smite: The ZEUS Smite Plus Portable Vaporizer.
Review: ZEUS Smite Plus Vaporizer

- Let’s have a look at the Smite Plus Vaporizer. This unit is the new and improved version of the original Smite Vaporizer from the Canadian-based manufacturer ZEUSArsenal.
Inside the box you’ll find the Smite Plus vaporizer , one mouthpiece, one charger, two screens, one cleaning brush, one cleaning tool and if you order with us you can also choose to receive a free ZEUS Bolt grinder made of aircraft grade aluminum.
The first thing you’ll want to do with the unit is sterilize it. To do that, press the power button on the side of the unit 5 times quickly to turn on the unit. Use the up arrow button to bring the unit to its highest temperature, which is 222 degrees Celsius. The Smite plus will automatically begin to heat, so let the unit sit and run through a full cycle. After 5 minutes, the Smite plus will go into sleep mode, so to re-engage the unit, press any button once and then hold the power button for 3 seconds to start heating again. Repeat this process 3 more times to complete the sterilization. This will get rid of any of the manufacturing oils that may have gotten inside the unit as a result of putting it together.
Once you’ve done that, you’re ready to load your unit with freshly ground botanical. To grind up your botanical we always recommend using the ZEUS bolt grinder. The bolt grinder has been calibrated to grind up your botanical to the perfect consistency for vaporization. That means its fine enough to be properly vaporized inside of your unit, but not so fine that it fly’s through screens. To load your unit, slide the top lid over to expose the heating chamber. Using your ZEUS scoop, load freshly ground botanical into the heading chamber. Take the mouthpiece out from the bottom compartment of your unit, screw it in on top of the heating chamber and you are ready to vaporize!
The Smite plus vaporizer has precise temperature control which you can adjust to the individual degree by pressing the up arrow and down arrow buttons on the side of the unit. You can see the unit’s set and actual temperature on the LED screen and you can also flip between Celsius and Fahrenheit by pressing and holding the up and down arrow buttons at the same time for 3 seconds. The Smite plus can be set between 40 – 222 degrees Celsius and it will automatically begin heating to the last pre-set temperature when turned on. For best results, we recommend vaporizing between 190 – 210 degrees Celsius. Once the chamber is fully heated, the set temperature shown on the screen will match the actual temperature shown on the screen. This unit heats up super-fast and can reach its highest temperature in less than 30 seconds!
To wrap this unit up, I’d like to tell you guys about some of the key features of the Smite plus that make it such a stellar unit. The first is the Smite Plus’s precise temperature control. This unit offers you complete control over the type of vapor want, and connoisseurs who prefer either dense clouds or light flavourful draws will be fully satisfied by the Smite plus’s wide temperature range. The second is the Smite plus’s ease of use. This unit features separate function buttons and a crisp LED display. It’s easy to load, clean, charge and its simple functionality makes it the perfect vaporizer for both beginners and true connoisseurs alike. The third is the Smite’ plus’s battery indicator. This unit features a 4 bar battery indicator on the LED screen which tells you how much charge is left in your unit, with each battery bar representing about 25% of its 3 hour battery life. This is a great feature because you can always check to make sure you have enough battery life and never be caught without a charge.
The Smite is an excellent unit for those looking for a convenient, high-value vaporizer that’s easy to use and offers efficient, satisfying vapor time after time. I’m HollyJane for TorontoV TV. We hope you enjoyed this video and we hope you found it useful. And for all you connoisseurs out there, keep vapin!
How it WorksLike the original, the Smite Plus’s mouthpiece is stored in a hidden compartment located at the bottom of the unit. Slide the bottom lid over and take out the mouthpiece. Slide the top lid over to reveal the heating chamber and load your botanical into the chamber so it is about 80% full, packing it down slightly. Screw the mouthpiece on top of the heating chamber. To turn the unit on, press the power button on the side of the unit 5 times quickly (in 2 seconds) and the LED will turn on and display ‘Summoning Smite’. Adjust the temperature to your liking by using the up and down arrow buttons on the side of the unit. The Smite Plus will automatically begin to heat. When the ‘actual’ temperature displayed on the screen matches the ‘set’ temperature, you are ready to enjoy your vapor! |
