Design
The Charon Racer definitely makes a statement with its sleek, sporty look. The zinc alloy and leather combo gives it a premium touch, while the compact, ergonomic shape makes it super comfortable to hold. The 0.96" color screen is crisp and easy to read, showing all the important details like wattage, battery life, and coil resistance. I also love the adjustable 3-level airflow system, which makes switching between MTL (mouth-to-lung) and RDL (restricted direct lung) vaping effortless.

Pods
Smoant includes two pod options in the box:
- 0.6Ω coil (preinstalled) – Great for RDL vaping, producing a bit more vapor and a looser draw.
- 0.8Ω coil – Designed for MTL, giving a tighter pull and more throat hit.
There’s also a separate 0.4Ω coil available if you’re looking for a bit more power and vapor. Flavor-wise, these coils perform really well, delivering crisp, clean notes across different e-liquids. I found fruity and dessert flavors especially pop with these pods.
The 2.0ml pod capacity is decent, though heavy users might find themselves refilling often. The side-fill system is easy to use, and I haven’t run into any leaking issues so far.

Performance
For a pod system, the Charon Racer really holds its own. The adjustable 5W-45W range lets you fine-tune the experience, and the device fires almost instantly when you press the button.
Battery life is solid, easily lasting a full day of moderate use. When you do need to charge, USB-C fast charging (5V/2A) gets it back to 100% in about 45 minutes, a big plus if you’re on the go.
