Right behind you...
Varitube in the US will be carrying it, not sure about Euro distributors. Not quite for sale yet, pretty sure all the current production is being allocated to use in the SX Mini M Class mod. The board should be very close to the same price point (~$70 USD) as the current SX-350 Mini, just based on the fact that the new SX Mini M is only retailing for $10 more than the "old" SX Mini.

That's right in line with Evolv's DNA40 pricing, but that price also includes a balanced USB charger board, a somewhat gimmicky gravity sensor (though the auto flipping display is awesome), and the firmware can be flashed via USB.

Got this one from the eBay guy in Canada. Guessing it's the official Cloupor one. I left an "NES controller" skin on the Mini, but without the skin should still fit like a glove. Dropped it pretty badly already and broke the glass of the Subtank. Love the fact that the overhang of a 22mm tank is now gone.

@ janne303 - Gearbest has them at a better price (and ships to Europe). I just saw them, but haven't ordered yet.

There are several more models on AliBaba, but they're exclusively wholesale - 50 pieces and above. I gave the Gearbest one a try, I'll let you know what it's like when it arrives. (in about 3 weeks, I think)

Ordered the Black Mini and the Black case from Gearbest yesterday. The wait begins... What are the best batteries to get for it? Love how small it looks.
Glad to see ya on this thread too Ricks!

Not sure about 'best', but I have a few Sony vtr's & efest 2500s in rotation. Same ones I use in my mechs.

My read of the general consensus is that 10 amp 18650s don't provide sufficient headroom to be used safely at higher wattages where the amperage is creeping up toward 10. The overwhelming recommendation is for IMRs that are rated for at least 20A continuous and 30A peak.

I continue to use 10A 18650s in many of my lower-powered box and tube PVs, but I've stocked up on Samsung INR18650-25Rs and use those with all my higher-wattage boxes.
