Lost Vape Orion Buyer’s Guide – Specs for Every Device

Lost Vape Orion Buyer’s Guide – Specs for Every Device

I’m guessing I’m not the only one who gets confused with all the different versions of the Lost Vape Orion.  There’s the original DNA GO version, the Quest, the Orion Plus, the Q-Pro, and the new Q-Ultra…and they all pretty much look the same!  So, I thought it might be helpful to put together a brief reference/buyer’s guide for our readers.

The list below covers all the basic info (features, specs, and differences) for every Lost Vape Orion device currently on the market.  If I made any mistakes or failed to mention something important, I certainly welcome your corrections down in the comments section.  I’ll be sure to update this list when new versions are released (and I can pretty much guarantee there’s more coming!).  There are a few things that most of these devices have in common; to avoid repeating myself, let’s get those out of the way first.

PROS:

  • A simple twist-off top-fill design
  • Adjustable top airflow control
  • Excellent build quality
  • Wide variety of colorways and panel styles
  • Compact design

CONS:

  • Although you can fine-tune the airflow, it’s really not ideal for MTL
  • Proprietary drip tip (not 510 compatible)
  • Marginal e-liquid capacity (with the exception of the new Q-Ultra)
  • More expensive than most pod systems
  • No USB Type-C port (with the exception of the new Q-Ultra)
  • There are way too many versions on the market…which is why I’m putting this list together! =)

My name is Jeremy and I’ve been writing for VAPE.DEALS since early 2016.  Digging for deals is what I do!  I’m a former 15-year smoker and will always be grateful that I found vaping when I did.  This site played a key role in my journey.  It kept me interested and excited about vaping during those first crucial months away from cigarettes.  Now, my ambition is to pass along that excitement to others; to help people make the switch and never return to combustible cigarettes.  This industry is important and I feel truly blessed to be a part of it.  Please feel free to reach out to me if you ever have any questions: [email protected]
