Oh I see it on weak batteries for sure. But I don't blame the mod (the Smok M65 example was a mod problem). If the battery can't supply the amps required for the output, it has two choices. Either throttle down or not fire at all. It just happened to me this morning on one of my Stubby 21 AIOs. Been using these Sanyo 20700B cells 15A 4000+mAh that I purchased back in 2018. I used to be able to use them until empty. Not anymore. One started throttling the Stubby at 40%. I'm vaping at 25 watts and the first vape in the morning it throttled down to 20 watts. The second vape it dropped to 15 watts. But this is the battery. It is old and tired and ready for recycling. Of course I tossed in another Sanyo. It's late evening now and the one I tossed in earlier is now empty. So that first one is all charged and I bet it will do the same at 40% again.

Solder is fine for some tasks. But I don't have a problem with screws and nuts connections either. All the wiring in my house uses screws for connections. Fusebox, outlets, light switches, everything. Even the light bulbs screw in. Automobiles are the same. Screws, nuts, and plugs everywhere to make connections. Heck even our builds aren't soldered in, but also uses screws. And most mods the battery isn't soldered in either. Could you imagine what soldering in a boro would be like! Who would buy one? So I'm all for screws, nuts, plugs, and sockets for connections. Even for boards. They generally work fine. Same could be said of solder.
I was thinking the same thing after my post that only gave a couple of examples - our whole electric and electronic world is ruled by push in and screw in connections that work pretty well for the most part.
I'm not saying it doesn't work, I'm just saying that the solderless chipset is a weakness where the tightness of the screws should be checked as maintenance progresses.
The package from 2FDeal arrived today (vapecell from AliExpress):
And my DotAIOs are now finished, all three have the same integrated drip tip from Mk Mods:

WOWWEE, a threesome.. l envy you! How are the Sturdy ones treating you? Im on the fence on this one. I like the deck, not to sure about the simple look on the outside, Will see...
Thanks mate.
I'm a big fan of Sturdy One, big capacity, easy to wick, great flavour.
The only negative I have is that as I wick's rba it always happens that I flood the deck when I fill the tank.
I solve it by letting the tank stand upside down for 10 minutes.
Sxk making something other than clones and selling it for under $50

This is super nice but I have no money and I dont know when Im going back to work with this shoulder injury.
Fight the urge, fight the urge, fight the urge!!!

Yeah, that seems to be a problem when your down to half tank or so...That's one of the reasons I like the Mission DotMobb rda. You can remove the deck without having to dump liquid and take everything apart.
Its actually incredible how the guys at MissionXV design rda's. They are way ahead of the game....
No, this SXK Ceto is news to me. Very Raga looking except the boro sits sideways. And I got really excited at made from Aluminum Alloy + PC claim. Asking myself is the body made out of aluminum? But then I noticed it weighs only 59g. An aluminum body would weigh over 100g. And looking at the army green version, you can see the aluminum C-frame clearly. But still for only $42.90, very interesting. Thanks for sharing.

That makes sense - the c frame is aluminium and the rest PC.
Looking at photos of the screen, I'm guessing this SDI 80W board is not the same size as the old SEVO 70 so probably couldn't be swapped out with a DNA 60.
Could be a nice little beater mod though
Yes I believe you are correct. Although a DNA80C might be doable. Although the larger DNA80C screen might be tricky. Either cut out the window or mount it outside with a frame.
Oh you bet! I wonder if vapor could be trapped behind the C-frame?
I'm pretty sure I'll grab one but on the fence between the white and silver Raga look and the army green. Then it would just be a matter of avoiding our nanny state borders
I would wait to buy until we see the dimensions of the DNA 80C. Buying a cheap Chinese mod is always interesting if we could upgrade with a good chipset.
80C doesn't have TC so in terms of that it's less interesting in my book, on the other hand it's interesting enough since it has replay

I understand what you're saying but I don't really agree. I have many cheap Chinese mods with proprietary boards - some better than others. SXK are at the top of those.
I'm currently vaping one of their (Sevo 70) aluminium delro clones with 9002 on the puff counter. I have one of their BBs (same board) that's been going strong for over 5 years.
I'm a simple vaper and don't need TC or replay to enjoy a device. As long as the build quality is good and the company has a good track record - both of which apply to SXK, then I'm happy to spend $45 on a mod that I like the look of.
A DNA board is a must for me. I had the opportunity to test a friends BMM .38 Special DNA60C. It simply spoiled me. I saw no chance of getting one even if I had the dough so I ordered a DNA60 BMM .38 Special styled from 3F. It should ship today. Even at it's greatly reduced price compared to the OG I think $129 is a lot.
Something I just now noticed is 3F claims the styled .38 with the DNA board is 3d printed nylon and the one with the Ambitions Mods board is made from PC. They must be from two different manufacturers.

When I said it was going to ship today (yesterday now) I meant it was going to ship out of China. I guess I was wrong.
