The Yocan Kodo from Yocan is a compact 510-thread battery in box format with adjustable voltage. Three levels allow tuning to different cartridges. The built-in battery charges via Micro-USB and lasts a day of moderate use.
Unlike the inhale-activated Ziva, the Kodo has a fire button that doubles as voltage selector. The small box housing fits any pants pocket. With 5 shops in the price comparison, it ranks among the cheapest adjustable 510 batteries.

Three Voltage Levels via Button
The Yocan Kodo offers three voltage levels cycled by triple-clicking the fire button. The LED shows the active level by color. Low voltage for flavorful draws, high voltage for denser clouds.
Compared to the Yocan Ziva, which delivers a fixed voltage only, the Kodo allows adapting to thin and thick cartridges. That makes it more versatile for users with different cartridge types.
The fire button sits on the side of the housing. Five quick clicks toggle power on and off. A preheat function via double click warms the cartridge for 10 seconds at reduced power.
510 Thread and Compact Box Design
The Kodo uses the standard 510-thread connection. The cartridge screws in at the top and partially protrudes from the housing -- unlike the Ziva or CCELL Palm where it hides inside.
The box format is wider than a pen but considerably more compact than large mods. Dimensions are roughly 55 x 30 x 15 mm. The housing is plastic and sits stable in the hand.
Color options vary by retailer. In the box: Kodo battery and Micro-USB charging cable. Cartridges sold separately.
Battery and Micro-USB Charging
The built-in battery charges via Micro-USB. Capacity covers a day of moderate use. A full charge takes about 45-60 minutes.
The LED blinks during charging and stays solid when full. Passthrough charging is not supported. Auto-shutoff after 10 seconds without a button press prevents overheating.
The battery is not replaceable. For a 510 battery at this price point, that is standard. Users who prefer USB-C should consider the Yocan Kodo Plus as an upgrade.
5 Shops in the Price Comparison
The Yocan Kodo is listed in 5 shops on vapochecker.com. It ranks among the most affordable 510 batteries with adjustable voltage overall.
Comparison within the Yocan 510 lineup:
| Feature | Yocan Kodo | Yocan Ziva | Kodo Plus |
|---|---|---|---|
| Voltage | 3 Levels | Fixed | 3 Levels |
| Activation | Button | Inhale | Button |
| Charging | Micro-USB | USB-C | USB-C |
| Cartridge | Visible | Hidden | Visible |
The Kodo is the cheapest choice with voltage control. For USB-C, pick the Kodo Plus. For discretion, pick the Ziva.
Kodo vs Kodo Plus
The Kodo Plus upgrades to USB-C and a bigger 900 mAh battery (vs 400 mAh). Frequent users benefit from the longer battery life. For occasional use, the standard Kodo suffices.
Pocket-Friendly Format
At just 55mm tall and 25g, the Yocan Kodo disappears in a coin pocket. The flat, box-shaped body sits upright on a desk without rolling — a small detail that most cylindrical 510 batteries get wrong.
