    SXmini M Class (TEMP CONTROL)

    Not saying it didn't happen, just don't know how you would get 35k out of the HE4. One thing is that you were in Soft Mode according to the photo. That lowers the power for the first two seconds. It's not a mode I regularly use, but I don't see that being enough to make the difference.

    SXmini M Class (TEMP CONTROL)

    I don't know how you would get 35kJ unless you were using the USB port to charge the battery.

    SXmini M Class (TEMP CONTROL)

    I got 20 to 21kJ with the same batteries before the update. On Eco mode after the update, I get over 24kJ. However, one's results depend on what you're using for a coil and your settings.

    Best rta for ni200?

    I haven't had any problems with the Lemo 2. The main thing is that you need to hold the ni200 with the screws on the build deck. If you use the holes on the sides of the build deck, you'll end up with hot legs. Otherwise, it's easy to build on and performs well. Lots of airflow, decent flavor...

    SXmini M Class (TEMP CONTROL)

    So Pioneer4You just released a firmware upgrade on the IPV3Li, which uses the SX330-v3sl chip: - support at 200W in Power mode. - support for Nickel and Titanium in Joule mode. Thus, I'd expect a similar upgrade for the SXM soon, except maybe on the power - don't know offhand what wiring is...

    DNA40 vs SX350j

    I agree that an RFID makes more sense than bluetooth, but to do temperature sensing correctly you also need cold-junction compensation circuitry. I'd agree though that having a mod be able to recognize the atty would be useful, but do you really need RFID to do that? If the next-gen connector is...

    DNA40 vs SX350j

    I strongly suspect we'll see a new connector from Innokin. It's possible to do a thermocouple-based heater with two wires, but it's a more complex design. With a four wire approach, everything is easier to do.

    Looking into temp control.

    I believe that just became available. There's threads for it here that might have a review: IPV 3li with tc | E-Cigarette Forum Pioneer4You IPV3 Li 165W / 200W With Temperature Control (Yihi SX330-V3SL ) | Page 2 | E-Cigarette Forum

    DNA40 vs SX350j

    It's not a practical idea for one very simple reason - you're adding the cost of the bluetooth chip to every atomizer for the sake of not redesigning the connector. There's nothing all that great about a 510 connector. In some ways, it's actually pretty bad (e.g., the lack of standardization on...

    Looking into temp control.

    Firmware upgrades aren't necessary, but then a lot of things aren't necessary. However, when someone is asking what the best TC chip is on the market, it becomes a very relevant issue. A firmware upgradeable chip allows for new features to be incorporated as the market changes or for most bugs...

    Looking into temp control.

    Let's just say when fanboys start claiming Evolv invented stuff that it didn't, bashing China, or other bull, it really doesn't help anyone. Meanwhile, there are distinctions that do matter, such as whether a chip is firmware upgradeable. It's an important enough feature that Evolv is finally...

    Looking into temp control.

    I'm shocked, SHOCKED, to see how quickly the thread went downhill once the Evolv fanboys jumped in. ;) Anyway, what I would recommend when looking at TC mods is whether the chip is firmware upgradeable. The reason for this is that TC is still new and changing, particularly with respect to the...

    SXmini M Class (TEMP CONTROL)

    Bad wicking can also make TC act goofy, such as if the wicking is allowing the chamber to flood.

    Erlkonigin and Clone Comparison

    Some people there are overstating the dangers, other people are completely blowing them off due to rampant fanboyism in the thread. The primary thing one should be concerned about is whether a mod protects the battery from impact/crush damage. So for me, that rules out the Opus 200, which has...

    DNA40 vs SX350j

    There's plenty of user enhancements one can add to a design if a chip supports bluetooth. Unlike DNA200 users, who will have to be tethered to the PC it looks like, bluetooth can allow users to change their settings on the go or share/retrieve them with others at a click of a button.

    Boxer Mod Dual 18650 Yihi 350J

    Me dunno, I felt the 2 battery setup looked unwieldy. Also, it's a DNA40 chip, which puts it in the disposable mod category for me (i.e., $50 or less). If I'm going to spend $100+ on a mod, I expect it to be firmware upgradeable, regardless of who makes the chip.

    Boxer Mod Dual 18650 Yihi 350J

    At first, I thought it was swappable LiPo hard packs like the Innocell (which would be cool), but swappable 18650s? I guess it makes sense if you only want to own one mod, but otherwise it's not a big draw for me.

    2.5mm works fine. That's what I'm using in the Gem RTA. I've also used it before in other tanks too.

    I'd say the dark red looks pretty good too.
