Looking for a new mod and found this but no reviews. Is it a good mod and does it perform well?
Yeah, it's an amazing value to be honest. I'm in the market too and it's currently my #2 choice behind the Sigelei 50w. If the price drops to $60, it's going to be tough to beat.
Waiting to see some if they've addressed some of the problems with the ipv mini v1.
This actually is NOT a v2.
It is the IPV mini2
Exact same Body
Totally different Chip set
I have 2 mini 30w and the Black mini 70w All of them work great.
Mini 2 is averaging under $70 and I got mine for 62.99 Sorry, but for the few bucks difference I would go with what I have.
Thanks but I totally understood that from the get go.
What I meant was that there were certain bugs with the ipv mini v1 such as build quality issues and misreading resistances--typical ipv stuff.
So I would like to see if ipv has made improvements the way siegelei has, or simply upgraded the board. I think it's likely the board functions way better than the sx130 in the v1.

Not sure what Build quality issue you mean?
Stripped cap threading is User error
Tilted 510 on a few - fairly simple to correct
I would think the biggest problem with the V1 is for users wishing to run at the Mods minimum spec due to the .1 lower reading. I also think several users are not keying in on resistance issues external to the mod. After working on a few of my Tanks I found Loose adjustable 510 pin issues, e--liquid soaked pins and a few other anomalies that all effect readings.
I have dropped mine from nearly 6' with no noticeable damage - well the 2 piece drip tip on the tank popped apart.
The SX330 chip is Killer nice and accurate.
The difference between the v1 and 2 at 30w is very noticeable and I have to say the more powerful v2 is the accurate one, matching my other mods at 30w.
No, I'm no fan boy - lol - I have so much junk it isn't funny. This is just one more device in my never ending Hobby.
Off to check on the location of my in transit Black Cloupor mini.............. will it fire or Catch on![]()
I just got this mod yesterday, and it was exactly what I wanted, but mine has started firing all by itself, just sitting there not having been touched...now it won't stop firing...anyone have any ideas what might be causing that?

Also does this mod use pwm or dc-dc?
The IPV Mini has a mobile charger feature that makes it seem like it is firing non stop.
Try holding:
fire button + the (+) button
fire button + the (-) button
(+) + (-) buttons
see if that helps
PBusardo's tests on the sx330 chip showed it putting out slightly higher output than what it should be, that's ok with me, better than lower.

What's the difference? My ipv mini offers each of those options
The mini 2, same as other SX330's is DC-DC only.
