SXK Ceto 2 DNA60C - anyone own one and if you do would you recommend it?

The only thing is that the VV Pulse V2 AIO does TC, which is leaning me towards that mod.

I know the Ceto 2 would be best for that with the Evolv DNA 60C board, however I just want to try a Boro style or AIO mod before I spend more money on it, if I like it I will gladly buy a more expensive DNA powered mod and also spend more money on a Boro and nice RBA which suits my DTL needs.

I wish the Nova did TC as then I would settle on that one, but the Pulse V2 being available in Sakura Pink is also leaning me towards that, as I want a mod that I like the look of and really want a pink mod.

Decisions decisions.

SXK Ceto 2 DNA60C - anyone own one and if you do would you recommend it?

If you wanna talk to actual boro owners of all kinds there's a dedicated boro thread. I'm part of that post, not just some dude with what he read, and my circa 2018 SXK DNA60 BB runs TC perfectly since day 1.

I didn't realise there was a dedicated Boro section, I will take a look there thank you for letting me know. Thats good to hear your 2018 SXK DNA 60 BB still works, and gives me faith in the Ceto 2 DNA 60C working well.

The Pulse V2 (with the aluminum panels that you'll be forced to buy sooner or later) has the flaw of having the battery "exposed" without panels to separate the Boro section. Instead, a transparent panel is behind the Boro, with an additional (black) aluminum panel on top of it. So it's a constant worry about condensation slowly building up and seeping either into the transparent panel (which isn’t sealed) or into the pin that allows reading

It’s a product released in late 2023, when box mod clones were hard to find for less than $100-120 and were still just clones. Back then, it made sense as an entry-level AIO, but now, not so much, given the design flaws.
The Nova already has the advantage of having an external battery—not fully protected, but at least there's no way for condensation to reach it. You can tell it’s something designed to be used seriously.
I will watch that video now, thank you for linking it.
That sounds like it could be an issue you pointed out.

I do like the look of the Nova, it just doesn't do TC does it? The Nova is also slightly smaller than the Pulse V2 isn't it, as I want to get the smallest 18650 boro I can afford.
I will seriously consider the Nova as a mod against the Ceto 2, I will think during the week and weigh up the pros and cons of each then decide which mod I am going to buy on the weekend.

I want to have enough money left to be able to buy some Molicel P30B's as they are £7.49 each, I want to get a few to use with my new mod and also for the main mech mod I use daily, as my Molicel P26A's and P28A's are 3 years old now, so have had lots of charge cycles, and have likely lost a lot of capacity and internal resistance has probably risen so they are not hitting as hard.

I imagine when I try a new P30B in my mech I will be blown away by how hard it hits and how much longer it lasts before I need to pull it compared to my old batteries.

Good afternoon random folks. I actually got 2 workouts in today. I went to the hospital and did my usual 2 miles on the treadmill and it was such a nice day and I was bored, so I took a walk in the park. I did 5 laps or 3.6 miles. It was 85⁰ and sunny with a guessed high of 89⁰. Definitely spring weather. I'm one quote away from being able to close on the house.
Good afternoon, Terri.:) Hope you get this house.
