Sigelei Mini 30W

[KGB7]

I almost bought the Mini 30w today, but then i stopped before filling out the CC info.

I was trying to be rational, that my Sig100+ is all i need. But i want a Mini dang it! I looked at bunch of mini box mods, even SX Mini which is a great mini box but my pockets arent that deep.

Guess ill sleep on it for few days first.

Ive held IPV mini in my hand few days ago and its feels much nicer do to curved battery tube. sigelei Mini is still boxy, and that whats holding me back. I wish sigelei made a curvy mini mod box instead of another brick.
I know, if i want curves then i should get iStick. But Sigelei has all the options that i have come to love with Sig100+; quality, reliable, magnetic door, silicone sleeve, swapable battery.


Like i said, ill sleep on it.

Well the IPV Mini has the exact same chip in it, it all comes down to the rest of the mod now. If you like the 100+, I'd say get one. Its boxy, but so is the 100+. The mini is pretty compact, fits perfect in hand and pocket. Also cheaper, and no crappy battery caps like the IPV has.. I weighed both out a couple months back and I'm glad I waited for the Sig to come out before I dropped my money.

The ipv mini is more comfortable. I don't have a Sig mini yet, but I would be willing to bet money it has a better build quality.

LOL I have the mini 30 and love it, But that 100+ keeps calling my name!

I have to agree with some of these guys. If they curved the edges on side away from the buttons I think it would be a fantastic feeling mod. It is very boxy feeling due to the sharp corners. As far as performing, it is just what you would expect. I have had mine for a few weeks now and I like it a lot. I use it only at the house as I do find it too bulky to carry around all day so as far as the "mini" aspect goes I think that is a bit stretching it but it mini when compared to their other models. But for a smallish mod for home it is great.

I just ordered one as a birthday present to myself, and I'm really looking forward to receiving it. I'm glad I found this thread and read about everyone's experiences. One thing I haven't seen mentioned, which was the final piece of information that convinced me to buy it, was that it includes a 90 day warranty. I figure that should take care of any issues with the 510. I got mine on sale over at MVS, and will report back as soon as I get it.
Thanks to everyone for chiming in and sharing.

I kind of like this look...

Was in a B&M on a recent road trip to get some juice, coming up quickly on my 2-year smoke-free anniversary, saw this and said to myself, 'what da hell, why not just treat "the kid". ' So I've had my mini for a week now, and I gotta say, I'm lovin it! More than I was expecting, so I'm very happily surprised.

A great vape, able to switch out the battery, and an 'industrial-strength' build, which I love. A nice 'heavy' feel to it for its smaller size, which I also love. (As mods continue to develop, this one will eventually make a great addition to my small collection of retired mods that will likely continue to work for many years down the road......) Very grippy with the silicone sleeve on it. Thought the sleeve would be a a bit chintzy, but I really like it. I leave it on all the time.

Honestly haven't found ANY box that is very easily pocket-able for long periods, especially in a pants or shirt pocket, mainly due to having a tank on top with a very thin little 510 connection. Pocketing any for extended periods is risky, imo. Small enough to fit easily and comfortably in a jacket pocket for long periods though.

I'm much more of a grab-and-go type now, not a cloud chaser most of the time, and this does it all for me. More than enough power for my needs. In fact, I've been looking at much more powerful boxes. I generally vape low nic, high VG juices, and this produces plenty of clouds when the urge strikes for my tastes. To me though, also perfect for laid-back, nice, easy, relaxed vaping. (I'm thinking that this box must be similar in use to what smoking a pipe is/was like for some.....in the easy chair with mosly relaxing, easy puffs, with occasional big puffs as the mood would dictate.) Since I'm not chasing clouds, I'm not feeling any need, after all, for anything much more powerful. (Not like I'll need to jump the car battery with my e-cig or anything.........now there's an idea....) Thinking that another mini or a 50 W box would be great to have as a pair, one for backup. Great for on the run, the car, even at home in the easy chair.

If you fit my profile above, really a sweet, mean little machine. Can't go wrong. YMMV.

Oh that thing will chuck clouds at 15w if you want it to. Just got a Derringer for mine this week and at 16-18w I can fog up my living room in no time!!

i here ya brother, got a blk Rogue on mine and it don't do bad; also very tasty!

The Sig mini definitely delivers!!

I discovered new B&M shop down the street from me that has been open for a month. The dude(employee) at the store let me use his iStick 30w while i tasted different juices. And the iStick feels great in my hands, he kept walking next to me to make sure i dont run off with it...lol. But I ended up spending my budget for this month on Juice.

Found another B&M shop down the street from my work and they sell iStick for $70. I ran out of that shop ...empty handed.


Thinking of Sigelei Mini 30w. Some one can make a round sleeve for Sig mini 30 for a very low cost. I would buy it for $5 more on top of the original silicone sleeve. It would cost 50 cents more worth of silicone to make in China.

Another option i can think of, is wrap the silicon sleeve in tape like we used to with hockey sticks.
Or, make your own sleeve using a Penile Silicone Mold kit, but mold it to your hand. This will give you a natural hand grip, similar to silicone hand gun grips.

There is a pink cement that is used in dentistry to make fake gums/jaws during making fake teeth. This cement is easy to work with and can be molded to anything you want it to be. Its cheap, light weight, easy to work with, almost indestructible when it cures, easy to shape, can be shaped to what ever you desire with a dremel bit.

I worked 28 hours past two days, so im brain storming out loud with out reservation.

I am in love with this mod. With the subtank mini at 20 watts it's all I want to use anymore. Sigelei makes some great products and this is a great compliment to my 100 watt plus! Now I want another mini 30 for my vtc tank!

 

[sando7]

well i finally got around to doing a dual coil build on my Omerta and it was a total pain, used 30 ga nichrome 80 (7 wraps 1/8th) and it came out @ .9...put it on the Sig Mini @ 18 to 20 watts and it was well worth it; one of the best tasting drippers i ever used so far yet very difficult to build....clouds and flavor a perfect balance.
wound up putting my blk Rogue on my 18500 Lotus Mec.

Got my Sigeli Mini a few days ago, nice little device especially for the price, but one serious issue for me..........the one I got does not get a long with my Kayfun lite clone's threading.

And this is kind of strange, as my Kayfun has no problem threading into all my other devices, Sigeli Zmax, Evic, Egos, and my other tops(not many), Protank 2, 510 to Ego adapter and 510 to 510 extender thread no problem into the Sigeli Mini.

It was a little resistant first going in, a little wobbly even threaded half way, and once I thought it finally caught right and was going in smooth, tightened it down and it was crooked. And of course it scratched the plating on the top of the Sigeli Mini, so can't return it since its damaged. Protank 2 goes in smooth and sits flush, as well as the adapters I have.

So the only way I'm able to really use it right now is with the 510 to 510 extender and screw the Kayfun into that, but that isn't very appealing.

Might end up getting a new top to go with it, was looking at the Lemo Drop, as I like the Sigeli Mini, but really sucks its not gonna work with my Kayfun

 

[Monotremata]

Just get a Kayfun 4 from Tobeco and ditch that old school Lite! My Lites are all in the retirement home now, and no problems threading my 3 KF4s.. It did take me a bit to realize the 'wonkiness' was from the floating 510 pin in the Sig. I had some trouble at first too with em going in crooked but I can do it now without even looking.

 

[sketch804]

So does anyone know where to get a replacement silicon skin from?

Ya that (and the button) is my only real complaint, the 510 connection, you kinda have to finesse the atty in there, but as long as I'm careful, all's well. Great mod for the money, I'm still really happy with it month or 2 later!

I love my sigelei mini box. Bouoght it off the classifieds here about a month or so back, and I haven't used my mechanicals since. .6 ohm on a KFL at 28 Watts has been awesome for me.
