Aspire Gotek X Pod Kit: Pocket-Size, Draw-Activated MTL The Aspire Gotek X is the simplest kit in Aspire’s Gotek range: no buttons, no screen and no settings to learn. Fill the side-fill Gotek pod, draw on the mouthpiece and it fires, powered by a 650mAh battery that Aspire says is good for around two days between charges. At 52g, in a translucent body roughly the size of a matchbox, it’s one of the smallest refillable kits we sell. It uses the same Aspire Gotek replacement pods as the rest of the Gotek family, each with a mesh 0.8Ω coil built in. Below you’ll find Aspire’s full specs, which pods to buy, how to fill and set it up, the colours, and answers to the questions we hear across the counter.
