There was someone on Reddit who claimed he found out from a rep at ISK that the chip is actually a Yihi SX350 V200 and that the mod is being built in the sigelei factory, and this will all be revealed once testing was completed and the device began shipping. I guess we'll find out soon. Yihi is currently claiming that although the V200 chip exists, it's not currently being used in any device, or is being sold to any other company in China.
There's something about it that hints towards Sigelei, like the 510 and the plastic covering the board. Those components look like the kind on my Sigelei 150. As for the chip, I make them for ISK out of old Nintendo 64 parts from my basement. I just haven't gone public yet. And yes the Snowwolf will be compatible with Game Genie for an even better vaping experience.

All the reviews I have seen on this device, the reviewers have stated that it has been the most accurate and stable TC unit they have used to date. They all also credited it for having the easiest menu to navigate, no gimmicky readouts or strange units to try and get used to like running in joules. I think that the price point is on par for a temp control unit when you consider that the Yi hi sx mini costs 200 bucks and doesn't have but 1/5th the power rating of this device. This is just my opinion of course, but it seems to be very solidly built and haven't seen a bad review of it as of yet.
I'm waiting for one to arrive at my friends B&M he wants me to test it out and see if it is worth stocking and promoting. I'm like the research and shop guinea pig.

Yeah, that's what I'm thinking also. The 510, interior panel, battery sled, and design of the magnetic door look exactly like Sigelei 150W parts. In addition, the board display is an exact copy of the display in the new Sigelei 75W TC device, which is already confirmed to have a Yihi board in it.

Where is the Sigelei confirmed to have a Yihi board in it? Link please? If it does, they have made a drastic departure from their other TC boards - basically created a new board that works nothing like the SX350J and SX330, and is instead basically a DNA 40 clone with some minor changes.

I'm not saying you're wrong I'm just very surprised that Yihi would go clone the DNA 40 (in effect) when they already have their own line of successful chips. And I also thought they put out a press release at the time of the SW 200's introduction saying that no 200W mod was using their chip?

Any link to confirmation that it's a Yihi chip in the Sig 75W would be appreciated, thanks.

Quoted as having the GX200 Smart chip. I don't remember the link but I have read on more than one occasion the chip is made by Laisimo, some sort of partner company with Sigelei. Could be a bunch of s**t though. You never really know till someone actually has the mod in hand and does the research. Either way it's supposed to be a solid board. All I know is I'm a collector of temperature control mods now, and I can't help myself. I want them all!

I am interested in this item, though it is 200W, sounds so amazing and crazy.
my friend told me that, only one Chinese Supplier have in stock now, is that true?
Any one knows about it?

A couple sites have it. Google is your friend. :)

Asmodeus, vaportekusa and cigbuyer (horrible name) were the first three that came up for me.

Not sure why there's so much apprehension about this mod. Got mine from Vape Royalty on Thursday. Yes, we still don't know who makes the board, but I can confirm the temperature control works flawlessly, it's very solid and well built. I've had no issues yet.

No menus, no resistance setting. Screw on your atty and go.

I also got one recently. I really like it. The temperature control does seem more accurate than the DNA40 and the SX-330 V4S, especially on lower ohm builds. I feel as though the vapor production is more consistent with the device. I also currently own a VaporShark RDNA40 (Big Screen, no resistance lock), and an IPV4 (Black).

When I turn on the device, it does say Liasimo.

Size-wise, it's narrower than a Sigelei 150w, but much thicker. About the same thickness as the IPV4 with it's battery case on. It's also heavier than both devices, because of the tempered glass and stainless steel design.

I haven't done a tear-down yet, but am considering it. If I do, I will post pictures.

Currently I'm running my Zephyrus on it with a dual coil NI200 build, 28 gauge, 2.5mm, with 11 wraps.
