SX Mini has been cloned

[roxynoodle]

I agree I won't buy a mod that doesn't have a spring loaded or at least adjustable 510.

I wouldn't be surprised if a tc sx mini clone comes out soon. How good it is may be another question. And I have to ask myself if its worth buying the clone body and a real Yihi chip or just spending another $60 for the real deal.

Yea,......... I hate china Site specs. Never detailed and asking gets you a Canned answer, often not related to your actual question.

As long as the 510 is Adjustable I will be happy. Price is good and power is enough for my planned use.
After using the Cloupor mini's for a while I find I like the adjustable pin setup. Like most mechanical mods, one quick twist and the connection is broken if needed.(Not so with spring loaded)

On FT forum there saying no spring loaded 510 and no TC
It would be nice for chip transplant if had spring loaded 510 with out IMO it's a Fail

That's too bad....I'm now glad I didn't bite on this the other night.

I'm bummed....

I was really hoping some U.S. company would clone the SX!

Now THAT would have been funny!

Yeah i was about to pick that up at noon yesterday before i heard about the Vapor Flask | Vapor Shark collaboration device... been waiting for the B2 colorway SX mini M for a while now... but looks like ill be waiting even longer to find out whats going on with the new VF/VS stuff.

I'd be willing to bet whatever they come up with will use an SX chipset.

crazy, they went to the trouble of making a clone that looks pretty good but decided to use a fixed 510! what the hey where they thinking! total deal breaker.... I mean come on, atleast have an adjustable pin of some sort.

Chicago customs? Expect it to sit there for about 10 days.

Wrong, already left Chicago, only sat there for 2 days, so should have in the next few days

I have seen about gearbest and I am same as you, I am not bothered about them features, as said should have mine in a few days, so be able to report if it is in fact a spring loaded pin, mine is coming from focal, so I expect it too as it is in the description.

How about you share some of that luck with me.

Been ordering from china for over 2 years, most times things only sit in Chicago for 2-3 days, longest wait was 7 days for me, but yes it does suck when it is so close and just sits there.

I just got a email from doris at foacal and she told me someone that actually has one says it's indeed spring loaded.... hmm

 

[roxynoodle]

Does it have the 3 modes: soft, standard and powerful?

Will be waiting on your evaluation, Nailz.

That would be very good news. I'm looking forward to Nailz's report.

me too ole Nailz gets to be the guinea pig so to speak hopefully it IS spring loaded and the chip is solid... wonder who makes this mod and chip!?!

I have also heard it is spring loaded.

I believe it does have the 3 modes, how good they actually work is another thing.

I did see somewhere else where someone already got theirs from focal, and it auto fired with whatever they put on it, hopefully it is a one off defect, should have mine either tomorrow or Friday.
