Other than the hub, the star feature of the GTS is definitely its gold heatsink and vapor path- and if you think it’s just a marketing ploy, think again. T he gold-lined parts of the Arc GTS allow for the rapid heating of your material, but a near-instant cooldown of the vapor. The latest release from well-established dry herb vaporizer brand Zeus Arsenal is here to bring cannabis vaping to the future. With the same gold vapor path and chamber as the 2nd generation GT, there have been some substantial upgrades made to the kit to make it all-inclusive.

Outfitted with GoldSink Technology™, it boasts 24-karat gold-coated parts that enhance heat and airflow for a cool and pure vapor experience. This device is designed exclusively for herbs and weed. Moreover, it includes numerous tools for smooth use and maintenance. Unique features like the Xtruder and Zeus ArcPods enable even faster and more efficient vaping. With a gold vapor path and chamber in combination with an improved mouthpiece, and the result is a better flavor profile from your cannabis terpenes.

Both vaporizers however offer pretty much the same range of temperature ranges for vaporizing dry herb so for those that prefer to fire up their device without much fiddling with the temps, the presets on the Zeus Arc do just fine. Final Thoughts As for the vaporizers themselves, functionality is identical aside from the fact that the Arc GTS offers loose dry herb compatibility. Single handed operation is a breeze with the power button doing all the work on both the Arc GTS and Arc S, easily powering the vaporizer on and off as well as switching between your preferred heating profile. Temperature Flexibility The Zeus Arc GTS Hub was designed to make dry herb sessions hassle-free for beginners and veterans alike.The Arc GTS will vibrate once desired temperature has been reached and the lights will be solid green. When Zeus Arsenal released the Arc GT, it defined “solid-gold vaping”. Which Zeus meant in the most literal sense, the Arc GT swaps out standard metal/aluminum parts for gold. Their latest release, the Zeus Arc GTS ( review | buy) has the same gold parts, yet is also part of a new 3rd generation of vaporizers, set alongside a full suite of accessories / aka the “The Hub” made for the devices and are designed to make cannabis consumption as seamless an experience as possible. Comparison Snapshot Similarities It has a blender-style spiral design that gradually becomes narrower and sharper as the bud moves down the grinder. At the bottom, the last blades are significantly sharper and will feed your cannabis bud through a narrow chamber and into your dosing capsules. The body of the plastic grinder is semi-clear as well, so you’ll be able to see the process in front of your eyes. Overall, we think that it’s a super satisfying process, but some people may prefer to just scoop up their ground cannabis into the dosing capsules as an alternative. Using the included Zeus Xtruder to load ArcPods is exceedingly easy with either device. Simply attach the ArcPod to the tail end of the Xtruder, load the Xtruder with dry herb and it should do the rest of the work as it loads the ArcPod directly. Once fully loaded with 0.3 grams of dry herb, the ArcPod automatically ejects from the Xtruder and is ready for use with either the Zeus Arc GTS or Arc S. In conclusion, the Zeus Arc GTS Hub is a high-quality portable dry herb vaporizer that was designed in Germany to have amazing performance at low cost. With its patented gold technology and improved mouthpiece, it’s been turning heads since its release in late 2021.

With a 3500mAh battery and the newly upgraded airpath in the chamber, you can expect up to ninety minutes of use time before needing a recharge which will also take about the same amount of time. With the included power saver mode, the Zeus Arc GTS will power itself down after ten minutes. Other than the Hub, it’s the gold heatsink and vapor path that make the GTS unique. When it first appeared on the Zeus Arc GT, many definitely thought it was all marketing – but it's not. The gold-lined parts of the Arc GTS allow for the rapid heating of your material, but a near-instant cooldown of the vapor. The devices themselves, the Arc GTS Hub and Arc S Hub- follow a similar design language to Zeus’ prior devices, yet have several improvements under the hood and are optimized for use with the ArcPods. The Arc GTS’s heatsink, airpath, and heating chamber are also still lined in gold –making it the most premium device that the brand currently has available in their line.

Who’s the Zeus Arc GTS Hub best for?

The G-Pen Elite 2 is powered by a 2100mAh battery, which is good for about 60 minutes of continuous use. It charges via USB-C from empty to full in just under an hour and a half. But in all honesty, we can’t imagine why you would want to do so since the ArcPods make loading and using the vape easy and avoids the need for messy degunking.
