Voopoo ARGUS Z3
The Voopoo ARGUS Z3 is a refillable pod system that Voopoo launched on September 18, 2026 and calls its most user-friendly pod, with a 1,100 mAh battery, 5 to 20 W of output and a 3.5 mL ARGUS Multi-Ohm Cartridge in the US version.12 It runs on the owner's own e-liquid, so it has no puff count.
Checked October 26, 2026ARGUS Z3 Pod and Resistance
The ARGUS Z3 pod is the ARGUS Multi-Ohm Cartridge, and flipping it switches between 0.7 and 1.0 ohm.2 The cartridge fills from the top and holds 3.5 mL in the standard and US versions and 2 mL in the TPD version, and the device reads resistances from 0.4 to 3.0 ohm and uses Voopoo's iCOSM CODE 2.0.
Airflow is adjustable, and Vaping360's review describes it as fully adjustable.3
ARGUS Z3 Nicotine Guidance
ARGUS Z3 nicotine guidance from Voopoo is 50 mg or less at 1.0 ohm and 30 mg or less at 0.7 ohm, with a lower cap of 20 mg for 0.4 ohm coils.2
Those limits match what Voopoo gives for the ARGUS G4, which uses the same cartridge family.4
ARGUS Z3 Battery and Lights
The ARGUS Z3 battery is 1,100 mAh and charges over Type-C at 5V/1A.2 There is no screen: four breathing-light segments each show 25% of the battery, and the light color shows the selected resistance. Voopoo's launch post says leaving out the screen was a deliberate choice for newcomers.1
Voopoo puts the weight at 41.6 g, which it says is 9.3 g or 18.3% lighter than the previous generation, in a PCTG and leather body with 8 listed safety protections.2 Vaping360's September 30, 2026 review lists six color options and pitches the Z3 at new vapers and people coming from disposables.3
Is the ARGUS Z3 Legal in the US?
The ARGUS Z3 can't be legally sold under federal rules without an FDA marketing order, and as of October 2026 it has none.5 It launched six years after the PMTA Voopoo says it submitted on August 27, 2020, and Voopoo does not say which products that filing covers.6
Unauthorized e-cigarettes can also be detained at the border under FDA Import Alert 98-07, which covers such products in general.7 Voopoo's own specs are on its ARGUS Z3 page.
