Asmodus Minikin V2

[Jonner]

I'm not very good at reviews, but I haven't seen anything on this forum about this great mod, I just received it today so I haven't had much time to play with it yet, but I'll do my best with a review by the end of the week. Until then, the description from the interwebs, and a pic with my also new Freemax Starre Pure tank.

"The Minikin v2 180W Touch Screen Box Mod by Asmodus is powered by a GX-180-HT chip which incorporates the same battery power saving capabilities as its predecessors, but now features a new wattage cap of 180W and touch screen support! "

I've just ordered my Minikin V2 (should arrive in a couple of days). From what I've heard it's a really good compact mod.

Let me know if yours blows-up, so I'll know to send my one back.

I am waiting for the red and a killer sale....lol.

Really want one after trying one out at my local vape shop.

Bought one myself today Should be with me tomorrow. Went for purple, thinking about a matching drip tip...

My one arrived today, spent the day with it, sofar I'm loving it. It seems to fit perfectly in the hand. The finish feels very comfy (seems a lot harder wearing than I expected).

Not used TC or the power curve setting yet.

All together sofar I'm very glad I bought it as it was a spur of the moment purchase.

It arrived!

First impressions:
- Extremely good build quality, feels solid, no rattles, battery door is nice and secure
- Finish is excellent, "soft" to the touch, feels hard wearing
- Feels nice in the hand, easy to grip
- 510 seems pretty sturdy, although can imagine that the top surface may suffer from atty rash with enough time (protector may help)
- Button is nicely weighted, with a positive click but slightly "spongy" feel to it (I quite like that)
- Screen is clear and bright (has brightness adjustment, nice)
- Touchscreen stuff seems responsive, doesn't unlock when touched (needs a swipe down) so prevents accidental settings changes
- Menu is straightforward and contains enough options to keep anyone happy
- Fairly weighty, but to be expected from a dual battery mod
- Sled is well marked with +/-, easy to insert and remove batteries
- Purple is pretty

Overall well chuffed. Just need to get that purple drip tip now.

(*EDIT* Ignore the vertical black line on the display. That's just in the photo due to refresh rate of the screen.)

Am looking for a nice compact dual 18650 mod. Very interested in this mod.. is it a pocket friendly mod?

I like the ergonomics of it, but a touch screen just seems like complexity for the sake of it from an engineering perspective. The reviews I have seen seem positive though.

Agree with Sonic. If it didn't have a touch-screen I'd grab one.

Yeah, touch screen turn off for me too, just one more thing that can go wrong. None of the touchscreens do it for me, especially the big ones like the G-Priv, just another thing to drain your batteries faster.

I've had my Asmodus Minikin 2 for some time now, and whilst I have not tested out its TC mode(s) yet, it has performed well in all other aspects. It is short, chubby and ergonomic. Its build quality is sound and rubberised finish feels good to the touch. It also vapes well in power mode and handles battery life significantly better than most other dual 18650 mods on the market. In addition, the touch screen is easy to use and navigate. In conclusion: I'm very happy with mine.

Yeah mine's slightly proud (less than half a mm) but nowhere near that bad.

Have you tried flipping the cover upside down?

I have tried everything. Checked the magnets positions to .

I'd RMA it. For reference, mine has a slight amount of "give" when the back is pressed in various directions, but it's only a tiny bit.

 

[janne303]

they will give me a new one. Hope that is better...

Everyone enjoying theirs? This is on a very short list to buy.
