Wow. That's too much. That's too bad. I really like much about what I have seen and read on the ipv mini. I was thinking it could be my mod 2 if and when I ever get to that point. But not with QC problems like that.

Don't be so quick to judge.
I have (2) received at the same time and have been hammering both pretty hard for a few weeks now. I have pulled one apart twice ot take pics and check parts for others and had -0- issues with either.
By hammering, I mean power vaping @ 30 watts and changing batteries 4-6 times in a LONG Day.
Not Every anything is perfect. That said, you buy anything, you take a gamble. At least P4U has a service to take care of their customers.
This mini is also the only release so far that will Both Boost and Buck power. DC-DC and PWM

You're right. I emailed him and he confirmed. He also said would look into PWM and DC-DC modes.
I somehow doubt I'll have to ship it to the US
Does anyone know who handles the warranties in the EU?
My IPV Mini is begging for a carbon fiber wrap! Wraps look awesome on our mods! I love how even with a wrap you still have all that stainless around the display!

My bad. Lol I didn't notice your location.
I am buying one today from a local B&M for this reason ^. The price is about $20 more than the least expensive price I could find at an online Canadian store but it comes with a battery... I'm guessing an MXJO yellow rewrap because that's what this store sells. So supporting local isn't that much more expensive in this case and I have an actual shop to return it if it screws up.
I think it is smart to buy mods locally for just the same reason!
Quick and dirty pics of my IPV mini.
Confirmed: reads .1 ohm too low. That's fine, can work around that.
Subtank and every other tank I have sits flush, nada problemo.
The weight of it is great with the subtank because it's not top heavy at all.
excuse my messy desk.
It came with this battery in the box from the factory.... anyone care to guess what it may be? (brand, amp output)

do yourself a favor and toss that mystery battery I think. I personally wouldn't take the chance. I received a device with an AW batt in it, turned out to be fakeQuick and dirty pics of my IPV mini.

I agree, plus most batts bundled with the ipv mini are 2500mAh!
Mine came with the same battery. The box even had a check mark by "battery".
It's a freaking Regulated Mod.
Even Mystery batteries will work. There is plenty of built in protection.
The biggest problem will be getting decent performance if the battery has a Low continuous amp output.
Someone using toppers at 5w-15w may never notice.

If it draws more power than the battery can provide, that will be a problem. They put venting on the cap for this reason. For 6 bucks, I wouldnt try my luck on some unknown battery.
If it is built as advertised it will not. A Mechanical would. A regulated is designed to know and react.
Not to argue, but I have fiddled with Regulated mods and various batteries for several years.
Undercurrent Protection
That would be me. Mystery battery works ok and isn't heating up or anything weird. I wouldn't put it near my face at .5 ohm without knowing who made it though.
IPV mini... it's been said before: battery cover is sharp eh? I wish the cover was heavier... it's easy to crossthread.
I like this mod. PWM mode is my friend. I can run any tank I own on this and it's not over driven.
Thank you to those who contributed to this thread with info. It's a good mod. I hope it stays working just like this.
I can't wait for the P Barsardo review..I seen him using it with the new kangertech topper blowing nice clouds
He told me is "cutting" it tonight...whatever that means.
