ArGo

The Arizer ArGo is the brand's most compact device: 52 × 24 × 83/93 mm (L × W × H), 97 grams, replaceable 18650 battery. As on the larger models, the herbs sit in a glass stem; here a push-top protects the inserted stem.

Who is the ArGo for?

For customers who want an Arizer device in pocket format and will trade runtime for it. At 52 × 24 × 83/93 mm (L × W × H) and 97 grams the ArGo is compact and disappears into a trouser pocket — no other device in the range manages that. Anyone needing more runtime reaches for the Air Max; anyone wanting the smallest format, this one.

Pocket format with a replaceable battery

Unusual for this size: the 18650 battery with 3400 mAh can be taken out. Devices in this class otherwise have a built-in battery that eventually decides the end of the device. A charged second battery extends the day without a cable, and after years the cell is replaced rather than the vaporizer.

The push-top protects the glass stem

The glass stem is inserted into the device and protected by a push-top. For use, the top is pressed down so that the end of the stem is exposed. The button on the back releases the protective cover again.

Hybrid of conduction and convection

The ArGo combines both heating types: the chamber wall provides base heat, the air flowing through does the rest. For a device this size that is the sensible compromise, because pure convection would need more volume and more power. The range runs from 50 °C to 220 °C and is set by the degree.

Airpath of glass, ceramic and stainless steel

Plastic never touches the vapour — the path is made entirely of glass, ceramic and stainless steel. That is rare in pocket devices and the main reason the ArGo can hold its own on flavour against considerably larger devices.

Three-button operation

An OLED and three buttons cover everything: temperature, display brightness, beep and automatic shut-off. No menu tree, no app. Heat-up takes around sixty seconds and runtime is 75 to 90 minutes; pass-through allows use on the cable.

Protective shell and transport

The box includes a protective shell that holds the glass stem with its load, plus a carry case. Anyone refilling on the move prepares two stems at home and swaps them on the way — that is the real strength of the system.

Note on the successor

Arizer has discontinued the ArGo; it was succeeded by the Go SRT with a 5000 mAh battery, USB-C with Power Delivery and a heat-up time of five to fifteen rather than sixty seconds. While stock lasts, the ArGo remains the brand's most affordable pocket device.

How to use the device

1. Fill the glass stem loosely with ground herbs.
2. Insert the stem into the device and press the push-top down for use.
3. Switch the device on and select the temperature on the OLED.
4. Let it heat for around 60 seconds, then draw slowly.
5. Remove the stem, tap it out and clean the well with the brush.
