I purchased the Argus MT as its specs suggested it could be a cheaper & lower-specified battery version of the Vaporesso Armour Ultra which despite a few minor annoyances, I've found to be a very useable mod.
However, despite the imo, impressive external look & feel, its firmware is packed with disastrous bugs. It doesn't have a single mode which I'd personally judge as satisfactory.
Althought the MT has an internal battery, Voopoo released an external 18650 version (the XT), which has identical functions apart from a different lock switch*. I haven't tested the XT but would expect the problems reported here to be common to the XT.
*Reports of faulty lock switches on the XT are common, but the MT (which has a different lock switch) does not appear to be affected.
Despite it's visual appeal/design, I can't enthusiastically recommend either Argus MT or XT for Dimitri, although if you're aware of the issues then it could probably suffice. It just has far too many l problems including a possible significant gotcha in RBA (power) mode, which is the only one we'd generally use for Dimitri juice.

RBA is meant to be a straight power mode, as intended for rebuildable atomisers. So ba

🙁 User confusion Functions with vague misleading names. User manual practically useless. Almost impossible for the average user to obtain proper info on what functions actually achieve and whether they're of any use, or just gimmicks
🙂 Works very well in "power mode" Simple Wattage mode is actually "Eco" mode with "Smart" disabled. During 0.3Ω 30W load testing, Wattage delivered was within 0.4W of the Solo V1 standard and (surprisingly) it's unaffected by the SS firmware bug, handling stainless steel coils every bit as well as nichrome Ni80 or Kanthal Ka1.
Battery test from low battery cutoff to fully charged. The 3598mAh is for the 5V USB supply Voltage.This translates into 4997mAh at the battery Voltage of 3.6V, assuming 100% charger efficiency. Peak charge current was measured at around 1.65A.
