Just a quick hello to all,
I have been vaping since January of this year. £1500 later I have the SX Mini M and now have a working setup to stop smoking. I have most tanks out there but setled for the Kayfun V4 from cloud 9 in the UK. They are the best UK vendor I have found so far. First class customer service I might add.
One reason I wanted to post was I checked the charging USB connector in the new SX Mini and it charges fine. Input reads 5v at 0.47ma. If you use it as a passthrough as you charge and vape at the same time it reads 0.5ma. Once the battery reached 4.20v, the charge power shuts off. I have tested this on a wall smart charger (5 usb outputs) and a travel battery charger. Both stop sending a charge at 4.20v. My dedicated 18650 charger stops charging at 4.22v. So it seems the SX Mini charges slightly lower than full capacity. This should help protect the battery in the long run. Or maybe they will up the volt cap later with a patch? Either way this device is a game change for me. Simply in love with my mini <3
I will play around with a 2 amp USB output and see if there is any difference. But there does seem to be all the charging protection you need to use the USB port on our SX mini's for charging. Just use common sense people and all will be fine.
The only feature I want in the next version is inductive charging. That would make this product perfect. I wonder if there is a USB inductive charging kit on the market? I would jump all over that.
Take care all and happy days
