Underneath the Maxus 200 you will find the Meshpro 2 Tank spare O-rings USB-C cable user manual etc.
Mesh pro 2 Tank
Came supplied with 2ml (TPD) resin tank but the bubble glass from the original Freemax Mesh Pro fits.
Apart from the looks there is one major improvement which is the top slide fill mechanisim which now has 3 steel balls placed into the topcap but not visible making it smooth and easy to slide open and nice and secure when closed.
The other obvious difference is the chunky knurling making it a doddle to adjust the airflow.
Mesh Pro 2 Mesh Pro 1
Nothing has changed regarding filling the tank, locate the red marked tab underneath the Freemax name which is quite clearly marked on the the topcap, push to slide it back and you will see the kidney hole fill port just insert your bottle and squeeze in the eliquid.
No difference with the coils either they still screw into the afc base and the topcap.
Coils
These are the latest coils from freemax with military grade SS904L mesh and Tea Fiber Cotton formula FM COILTECH 4.0

Maxus Mod
This is a twin 18650 Mod (Zinc-Alloy Chassis Construction) which can be used as single battery device.
As a twin 18650 the maximum wattage is 200
With single battery the maximum wattage is 80
It has a wattage range of 5-200watts and adjusts in 1 w increments.
On the side black panel it has the FreeMax logo and on the rear edge it has the name of the Mod MAXUS 200w clearly visible in white.
To insert the Battery/Batteries the Mod you will need to remove the graffiti style side panel first which is held in to place by two nice strong magnets its easier doing this from the bottom as it has a little cut out to get your nail into and lift it up,once inserted around the ribbon pull, it will switch itself on so there is no need to do the 5 clicks on unless you actually turn the Mod off yourself then it is the 5 clicks on and 5 off.
This has Freemax`s own Maxus1.0 chip and has a nice bright easy to read OLED screen making it easy to read the display all 3 buttons are clicky and responsive with the Type USB-C port at the base of the device just under the wattage down button but has no silicone protection bung,on the base of the Mod you will find the battery venting holes 5 in total.
The mod itself has a slight curve at the front and back making it not so box shaped and comfortable in the hand 510 plate is more towards the back of the mod where it is a tiny bit wider but is centered allowing the tank to fit perfectly.
i did find a tiny bit of play with the removeable graffiti style door once gripped in the hand similar to to Voopoo drag 2 not a deal breaker but worth a mention.
Now this is one smart cookie it comes with something called smart load technology which basically means it doesnt matter which way you insert your batteries it automaticaly detects polarity,and is quite clearly marked in the battery sled.
To lock the device press both the +/- simultaneously for 1 second and it will flash up on the screen key locked but will NOT show a padlock to remind you its locked, when you unlock it will flash up key unlocked.
3 clicks on the fire button will take you into the menu use the +/- to scroll into the options available.

I have been using this for about a week with various batteries VCT5A 30q`s and VCT6 which will all give a runtime on the mod depending on how many watts you are pushing through it ive been getting a good few hours pushing it quite hard and as single battery not as long which is to be expected.
The fire button is superb it fires instantly no misfires to report.
Once i had primed the coils filled the tank and left it for 10-15 mins i started at the lower wattage range and worked my way up gradually with each increas the flavour improved and at 75-80 watts the flavour is incredible as are the clouds an airy tank but to be expected from a subohm tank close the airflow off a bit its not as airy.
No leaks or seaping from the coils at all.
There are a few options on board the chip which i used a couple of to test out the first being Bypass, works well and imitates a mech style vape and found myself using this a fair bit , the next one i used was TC/NI using an mtl RTA with an NI200 0.15ohm coil as its the only thing i had available and it worked fine.
Verdict
FreeMax have produced a fantastic Mod with lots of features comes with an excellent Sub Ohm Tank that is compatable with all coils from the previous version hard to find fault with this.If you love flavour and clouds this is for you 100% and the added bonus is its not expensive
I will definatley be picking another one up and a couple more of the Mesh Pro 2 tanks.
I have thoroughly enjoyed using this.
Would i recommend this device YES
