At a Glance
The Lost Vape Centaurus M120 / M120S mod kit is a compact box mod built around MTL vaping, pairing a 5–120W platform with the Centaurus Nano MTL tank and UB MTL coils. It gives you three output modes (MTL, Power, Turbo), a 1.47″ TFT screen with six UI themes, and two battery options, so you can prioritise built-in convenience or swappable endurance. If you want a refined, flavour-focused MTL setup that can still open up when you want more power, this is a strong pick.

Draw, Flavour and Performance
The kit ships with the Centaurus Nano MTL tank and dedicated UB MTL coils in two resistances, so you can start tight and flavourful at 1.2Ω (12–17W) or open slightly at 0.8Ω (7–11W). The MTL mode tunes the output curve for that restricted, cigarette-like draw, while Power and Turbo let the chipset push more volume when you swap to a lower-resistance setup. Because resistance support spans 0.1Ω–3Ω on a universal 510 connection, you are not locked into one tank — you can move to a different atomizer later without changing devices.
Battery: Built-In or Swappable
Choose your version by how you prefer to charge:
- Centaurus M120S — a sealed 5500mAh battery. More endurance in one charge, no cells to buy or rotate; ideal if you simply want it to last all day.
- Centaurus M120 — takes a single external 18650 or 21700 (not included), with an 18650 adapter in the box. If you already own cells, swapping a dead battery for a fresh one beats waiting on a charge. For 18650 use, a continuous discharge rating of 35A or above is recommended, and up to 100W is the sweet spot for stable output.
What’s in the Box
Both versions include the mod, the Centaurus Nano MTL tank (4ml), a 0.8Ω and a 1.2Ω UB MTL coil, a spare glass tube, a spare-parts pack, a Type-C cable, manuals, a warranty card and a quick guide. The M120 additionally ships an 18650 battery adapter for its removable-cell design.
Setting It Up for the First Time
- Power on — press the fire button five times quickly; the 1.47″ TFT lights up.
- Fit and prime the coil — screw in a UB MTL coil, fill the tank through the side/bottom ports, then let it sit 3–5 minutes so the wick fully saturates before your first draw. Skipping this is the most common cause of a burnt first hit.
- Select a mode and wattage — choose MTL mode for the restricted draw. Start at the lower end of the coil’s range (around 7W for the 0.8Ω, 12W for the 1.2Ω) and step up until flavour peaks without harshness.
- Adjust airflow — close it down for a tighter draw; a little more air warms and softens the hit.
Choosing the Right Coil: 0.8Ω vs 1.2Ω
The two included coils cover two tastes. The 1.2Ω runs at 12–17W and gives the coolest, tightest, most cigarette-like throat feel — a good match if you are coming from disposables or a pod. The 0.8Ω runs at 7–11W and opens the draw a touch while emphasising flavour warmth. Start with the 1.2Ω if you like restriction, or the 0.8Ω if you want a little more airflow and volume; keep the spare resistance on hand so you can switch as your preference settles.
Battery and Charging Care
Use the included Type-C cable with a modest 5V/2A adapter rather than a high-wattage phone fast-charger, which stresses the cell over time. Do not leave the device charging unattended or overnight. For the removable-cell M120, only use protected, high-drain 18650/21700 cells rated 35A or above, and store spare cells in a case away from metal objects like coins or keys.
Maintenance and Coil Life
Keep the tank topped up — running low on e-liquid dries the wick and shortens coil life. When flavour fades or the draw tastes harsh, that is the usual sign a coil is finishing. Wipe the 510 contacts and the tank base periodically to keep the connection clean, and store the device upright to reduce residue build-up. With sensible wattage and a never-dry wick, a mesh MTL coil typically lasts one to three weeks of regular use before a swap.
Design and Handling
A 38 x 29.4 x 97mm chassis at roughly 120g makes this a genuinely pocketable box mod rather than a bag-and-tank rig. The matte finish keeps it discreet, and the six UI themes let you personalise the screen without adding complexity.
Pros and Cons
- Pros: MTL-first tuning with room to grow; two battery formats; 5–120W headroom; universal 510; compact and light; both coil resistances and a spare glass included.
- Cons: The M120 needs its own 18650/21700 cells; the Nano tank is 4ml rather than a big reservoir; the highest wattages are better matched to a sub-ohm tank than the included MTL setup.
Verdict: Who Is It For?
If you are stepping up from a pod and want a real box-mod experience built for MTL flavour, the Centaurus M120/M120S is a clean, well-specified choice. Pick the M120S for built-in endurance, or the M120 if you want swappable cells. New to the category? Start with our beginner’s guide to choosing your first device before you decide.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the M120 and M120S? The M120S has a built-in 5500mAh battery; the M120 uses a single external 18650 or 21700 cell (not included) and ships with an 18650 adapter.
What wattage should I use? The 0.8Ω coil suits 7–11W and the 1.2Ω coil 12–17W for MTL; the platform itself runs 5–120W so it can drive other 510 tanks.
Can I use other tanks? Yes — the universal 510 connection and 0.1Ω–3Ω support let you fit a wide range of atomizers.
Does it come with coils? Both the 0.8Ω and 1.2Ω UB MTL coils are in the box, plus a spare glass and parts pack.
