What coils are they? Maybe something shorted. I would guess they are not supposed to be .02
Someone supplied you Ni200 coils at 0.02Ω ? Are you sure they're meant to be? Either way, if the coil is definitely installed right, you should ask for your money back
SXM is minimum 0.05Ω I believe but you really don't want to build that low if you can avoid it. At that level your TC will very likely be around 40°C / 97°F inaccurate. At the very minimum it will be 20°C / 68°F inaccurate.
Higher is better if you care at all about being able to set a temperature close to reality, and have it repeatable between different builds/atomizers. At least above 0.10Ω.
Yeah unless they're 22 gauge or something, that sounds very wrong.
Varitube has the Renagade mode. dual 18650 with the J chip. Wired in series.
I'm strongly considering one as I'm on number 3 mini M due to paint issues which just drives me crazy. Number 3 now has a battery cap issue. This is not user error. My S class is 10 months old and looks and functions perfectly. The cap slips when ANY battery is inserted. Checked the cap against the cap on my S class and the on the M is noticeably shorter.
As much as I love this chip and all it brings to the table i can't deal with the issues that exist with the housing of this outstanding chip.
I'm hopping that the Flask is better but I have feeling that because its being made in China it may very well have similar issues with the housing.
If anyone has any clue as to where I can buy some extra battery caps it would be greatly appreciated.
I guess I'm spoiled from the quality I've become accustomed to from my Provari's.
Hopefully the Dicode will become available in the states soon.

If you are talking about the vapor flask SX, its made in the US.
The current version is. My understanding is that the new one coming with the SX350 J will be made in China. Also 189.99 (lower price point than the current flask) if my memory serves me correctly.

No. The Vapor Flask SX is made in the US with an imported custom yihi SX350J board. It went on sale today on the official vapor flask, and retails for $269.99.
The Vapor Flask v2.1 with the small screen dna40 has been discontinued. They teamed up with vapor shark to mass produce a cheaper large screen dna40 in China. It is readily available at multiple vendors for $189.99.
Wow... interesting turns of the conversation.
Personally I have a foot planted in both "camps". I like (or should I say) DEPEND on "plug and play" and an easy and reliable vaping (or should I say: method of nicotine delivery?) experience and system to keep me off the 44yr smoking habit I walked away from HOWEVER the Engineer in me likes to "tinker" and "fiddle" with stuff. (some of us are seemingly blessed/cursed with the "Tim the toolman Taylor" gene) and I often think how or in which direction is the industry going to evolve?
It has been discussed in many threads that new lower volume and lower power vaping gear is being released less frequently than the higher volume and higher power stuff. My basic theory (it is only a personal theory here folks) is that much like any industry - it follows the $$money$$. This seems (to me at least) contradictory to the often mentioned "main stream" habits and desires of a easy plug&play low volume and low power vaping experience.
Then we have the added complication of TC to the mix. Sure the vaping industry COULD follow other industries and keep coming out with more and more powerful mods but to what end? A 5000W handheld APV? I see that the industry is attempting to innovate in other ways by giving users more options to customize their vaping experience to their OWN liking.
The problem here is that all this (to some of us, myself included here) wonderful customization brings added complexity which ether turns off some users or they just don't want anything to do with it and would rather have something SIMPLE and EASY to use.
While in the short while I've been involved we've seen "beginner gear" or "starting kits" that most vape users may of only dreamed about just a few years ago, has this gear gotten easier to setup and use?
I may get ostersized for mentioning this but (again in my own humble opinion) I think this is one of the attractions to the "cigalikes" that some users here seem to loathe like the plague - they are simple and easy.
Thankfully the other half has given her go ahead
to allow me to spend up to what I was spending on cigarettes on vaping. (as long as it is LESS and I'm not smoking up the house she is happy)
My next mod will have a user adjustable TCR so I can sample any wire suitable (or not!)

for vaping.yeah jake67 I have the same exact scenario. keep buying sx mini m class thinking I will get a flawless one. wishful thinking it seems in retrospect. the 350j is stellar but plagued by the (minor) issues of this mod. I wish a custom maker would use this chip. perhaps one does but I do not know of it. they seem to use 330.
someone linked to the battery cap pages back. can't find it now.

There is a link to SX battery caps in this thread. I know it hasn't been that long ago so maybe within the last 20 pages.
I also used to use a Provari. The quality of construction & reliability is the reason I bought it and I wasn't disappointed. These are the reasons I bought the SXMM and so far my expectations have been met. No paint issues yet...I have had it in a sleeve though. Battery cap can be stubborn some days. But the chip & form factor make up for that many times over. I will say if/when my paint starts to come off I will be upset. My feeling is you shouldn't have to wrap or paint a $200 mod because the paint is coming off. But nothing is perfect I guess.
this is the coil 10 pack prebuilt Ni200 coils • 0.03 or 0.04 ohm or 0.05 ohm – Victory Vape i picked them up in the 0.03 ohm. i did not know it would have been too low..user error on my part.
Huh? That is crazy those are so low. There may be mods that will read lower but I thought the 350j was the lowest at 0.05. Even if you got the 0.05 from them it is very possible they would actually come out to be lower like your 0.03s. Making all of them worthless if you can't use them. I know they were only like $7 but I would contact them if you had the time. Just for the principle of the matter

I just sent them a note asking what Mod those are used in. That is just dumb and the highest 0.05 ohms is the very bottom end for the the SX Mini. That kind of think from someone that is supposed to know what they are doing is really disappointing.
snow wolf is 0.05. if it is lower though it is a waste. that is very low. stupid to me at least. I kind of wish the sxm did more than 50j but it is okay. an upgrade to 70j would be great. the ni200 upgrade does not do that. not sure about 120w upgrade.
yes, overall even with paint degloved and finicky battery cap It is still my main mod and I have expensive custom mods. sans 350j of course. do not know why custom maker does not toss one in. they seem to prefer sx330. like a twotonian with 350j and dual batteries would be my dream. do not care about dna200 and lipo. you know this is all moot anyways because yihi is bound to have a new chip soon. hopefully with tcr too. I still like the way preheat is on the 350j. evolve just misses the mark for me each round. not hating just my preference.

Yeah that's absolutely nuts. No mod does 0.03 or 0.04, and only a small handful 0.05Ω. That company is completely clueless. Good job sending them an email.
The SXM does 75J with the latest FW, 2.2.3 I think it is? The one that adds Titanium.
I agree. No more China made mods for me. I have yet to own any China made vape gear that has held up. Not hating on China just my experience.

well, you have to admit the sxm is better than most of their trash but not quite there yet. the 350j is in fact a Chinese made marvel. just not their cases. want to see someone put this in something good and do it justice. I have to hand it to yihi Chinese or not. all my other chips failed and 350j still works.
Vapor Flask SX does it justice imo. Whiteout SX is fine too. Renegade X Mod also a fine option, even a kit if you want to put it together yourself. Boxer, meh, its good, but 3D printed, which is a turn off for some.
I agree. Maybe I was unclear. I think yihi made an outstanding chip. I would love to see it in a quality case.
