Aegis Solo 3 Highlights
Built-In 3000mAh Battery
There’s no battery to buy. The Aegis Solo 3 charges over USB-C at 5V/2A.
IP68 Tri-Proof
Geekvape rates the Aegis Solo 3 IP68 and calls it tri-proof, built to resist water, dust and shock. The rating covers the mod, not the tank.
5W to 100W
The mod runs on Geekvape’s AS Chip 4.0, with SMART, POWER, BOOSTING, MEMORY, ECO and TCR modes.
Z Sub-ohm 2021 Tank
The 5.5ml tank fills under a quarter-turn top cap and has top airflow. A Z0.2Ω coil comes installed, with a Z0.4Ω in the box.

Z Coils and Wattage
The Aegis Solo 3’s Z Sub-ohm 2021 Tank takes Geekvape Z coils. The wattages are Geekvape’s ratings.
| Z coil | Geekvape rating |
|---|---|
| Z0.15Ω | DTL, 80–90W |
| Z0.15Ω XM, including the Boost Version | DTL, 70–85W |
| Z0.2Ω (Z2) and Z0.2Ω XM Boost Version | DTL, 70–80W |
| Z0.25Ω Dual | DTL, 45–57W |
| Z0.4Ω (Z1), Z0.4Ω XM and Z0.4Ω XM Boost Version | DTL, 50–60W |
A Z0.2Ω coil comes installed and a Z0.4Ω coil is in the box. We carry Geekvape Z coils in packs of 5. Our coil compatibility guide shows which coils fit each Geekvape tank and kit.
How to Set Up the Aegis Solo 3
- Charge it: plug the Aegis Solo 3 into a USB-C charger with the cable in the box.
- Fill and prime: turn the top cap a quarter turn to open the fill ports, fill the tank and let the coil soak for a few minutes.
- Set the power: start at 70W for the installed Z0.2Ω coil, or 50W for the Z0.4Ω coil, and work up.
- Check the lock: by default, the Smart Lock locks the mod when you set it down and unlocks it when you hold the back. You can switch to a button lock or turn it off in the menu.
Who the Aegis Solo 3 Is For
The Geekvape Aegis Solo 3 suits DTL vapers who want a tough 100W kit with no batteries to buy and a tank that takes Z coils. Its coils are for DTL, so try our pod kits for a mouth-to-lung (MTL) draw. Want two batteries and up to 200W? See the Aegis Legend 5. For a 100W kit on B coils, see the Aegis Mini 5.
Good to know: the battery is built in, so you can’t swap in a charged cell. Plug the mod in when it runs low.
