Thanks for the info! It would be nice if they updated the instructions
It's still awesome!
You do realize you are supposed to Vape by Preference, not numbers on a screen right?
Tell me, How does Ohms law fit into a Regulated mod with unknown factors - like efficiency, Single digit .X ohm readings, Possible output reading of Actual or Required to achieve?
I find my Best Vape comes from setting to an output that delivers where I enjoy my Vape regardless of what is on screen.
Still have my Mini's - (2) 30w and a 70w as well as (2) Cloupor mini's - All vape slightly different at Same screen settings.
While I agree that you should vape for that specific device and what you enjoy, I think his point was that the mini v1 is off (wildly) in its displayed voltage for those other two known variables. E.g.: if you have a known coil ohmage and mod wattage, the computed voltage that is displayed doesn't follow ohms law.
The displayed voltage on the mini II is much more accurate was my point.
Agreed - SX330 chips have had time to be developed into an excellent controller.
My mini 30w reading .4ohm shows 3.7v dc-dc for 34.23w, but it is a 30w max device.
PWM reads 3.6v again incorrect @ 32.40w
PWM - 32.40w * 93%(efficency rating) - 30.1w
Just not so sure watching Volts reading in Watts mode is meaningful on the SX130.
I have just about decided, like many China companies, P4Y is nothing more than a Front office/Design business and their products are built by order elsewhere.
P4Y has No information on site for the Mini2 - Seriously?

I wrap your condescension around me like a comfortable old blanket. Feels good!
Well since they (P4Y) puts the voltage on the screen and I have learned much about ohms law in the last 2 months, I did the calcs myself. Even if one allows for a 0.55 or higher ohm coil their volts are waaay off. I watch the watts, not volts! Especially after seeing that something was off with the 130 chips.
I have noticed that no details on the mini II also. Other than a splash screen that leads to nowhere, unless you consider a 404 error somewhere. Probably will be fixed after the big Chinese horiday is over.
Warm and Fuzzy.........
Just pointing out the Obvious - Low cost mods Are not the best for trusting what you see.
Ask any experienced iStick 20w owner
I bought the (original) IPV Mini rather than the V2 specifically because it does have the PWM mode (whereas the V2 does not).
PBusardo shows the "V1" has step-down and "power boost" only in the PWM mode. (about 25 minutes into his video)

I just got a Pair of these from Illumn.
Good Price. Fast Ship. Battery Life seems to be More than 2500mAh. No Complaints what-so-ever.
I have been happy with their processing and shipping as well! My go to source for flashlight stuff! Guess I'm gonna have to get an 18650 light now, then the wife wont notice so many vape batts! LOL!
gerrymi sent me. the password is smallboxer.
Good things come in small boxers.
Kat, coming from an iSticky point of view, this smallboxer feels pretty big. To you that means more room to bling-it-up.
