    Boxer Mod Dual 18650 Yihi 350J

    With LiPos, if you have a short circuit that can lead to a fire. 3mm of Noryl is enough to get UL94 5VA (the highest standard for fire safety). Plastic Nylon in the same thickness gets you UL94 HB, the lowest standard. That's why commercial battery packs use stuff like Noryl. ;)

    Boxer Mod Dual 18650 Yihi 350J

    He's mentioned the idea of doing a DNA200 mod, which would require a LiPo pack. If so, it'll probably be a totally new design. One just can't cram a LiPo into an enclosure, like one can do with 18650s, if it's going to be safe. Also, plastic Nylon isn't a great material for protecting a LiPo...

    Boxer Mod Dual 18650 Yihi 350J

    You can use it for charging if batteries are in parallel, but it's not recommended to use it that way. USB generally does not handle well the stress of being repeatedly plugged/unplugged or having lateral stress applied to it. Micro USB is definitely an improvement compared to earlier USB, but...

    *GEM: A new RTA by MarkBugs

    I lung hit on the Gem most of the time, though I also do M2L. I'm weird like that.

    I've had no problem with 2.5mm spaced Ni coil, just fyi.

    Boxer Mod Dual 18650 Yihi 350J

    Couple DIY notes after a chat with GV: (1) The SX350J board comes with an extra .10 microFarad capacitor (marked "104"), which can be used if you want to replace the switch for the fire button. Toss it, keep it, but you don't need it for the Boxer. (2) If you mess up the magnets, the only fix...

    Meh. Where's the integrated mp3 player? (j/k) ;)

    Last update via Qorax. Looks like resellers will have it the same day - I guess I had older info in my brain.

    *GEM: A new RTA by MarkBugs

    Not sure on the release date, but I believe that it will be available from MarkBugs first, then resellers a week later. UPS took 3 days from pickup in Romania to delivery in Chicago.

    Yihi SX350J Technology Discussion Thread

    The Sx350J uses a 0.91" 128x32 display, which only the DNA40 large screen compares to (except YiHi didn't include screen glitches ;). The DNA 20/30/40 small screen is a 0.69" 96x16 display.

    Mine is still in the hands of the USPS, which at this point has given up on a delivery date. Maybe tomorrow, hopefully in the right number of pieces.

    SXmini M Class (TEMP CONTROL)

    Awhile back, I bought a box of Kanger niOCC coils from Vaporshark I think. Of the five, I think two crapped out within a couple days. Of the rest, I'd say it was just meh to ok at best. I think for replaceable atomizers, one really needs a different design with short legs and welded contacts (or...

    REO CLONED

    That seems based entirely on speculation that it is the same as a Kui. Not an actual sample of the new clone. However, you're welcome to correct me if I'm wrong.

    Yihi SX350J Technology Discussion Thread

    It's quite possible that both of you are right. It may be a new screen, but with similar dimensions as the old one.

    You could build yourself a Kanthal-based heating device. ;)

    Yihi SX350J Technology Discussion Thread

    The first thing I would do is remove or replace the spring. Even with the afc screw in contact with the 510 pin, it might be getting heated up by transient current.

    Yihi SX350J Technology Discussion Thread

    The KF4 uses a spring in the connection path, which can make it inconsistent in terms of temperature control.

    *GEM: A new RTA by MarkBugs

    Let me revise that to demanding in the sense that the juice flavor only does well in a compact atomizer setup like the Gem. Other e-liquids I have do better in larger atomizer setups and would probably not work well in the Gem. Wasn't looking to start a war either, just give a comparison. ;)

    *GEM: A new RTA by MarkBugs

    I was mostly judging it on flavor, otherwise I'm sure I'll come up with something for the Squape clone. There's less demanding e-juices I can use with that and be quite happy, especially with the larger air flow.

    *GEM: A new RTA by MarkBugs

    Me dunno. That extra 10mm or thereabouts of thick 22mm steel is what makes it look goofy to me. Reminds me more of the original Kanger Subtank, though not as thick. Also, when you put it up next to the Gem, that's when it starts to look ridiculous. The drip tip of the Gem ends where the...
