I have one of these chips one the way. The buck circuit was appealing and wanted to take advantage of that. Personally I'm at 8w most of the day and many forum members are below that. I've thought of going for max mah vs. min. size. How would you do it?
sx350 build - how would you do it?

I've sent an inquiry to YiHi about wattage limiting/throttling for using virtually any battery.
I personally would never post that I want a device for 8 watts out of a 100 watt mod when an ego twist @ up to 12watts would be way more than sufficient.
It's like buying a baby a lambroghini
meh
Once again the ego has very small size and huge run times for its size.
lol
Check out the sx 350 posts in this section there are some really cool builds specifically the acrylic builds..

You cant go wrong with the sx-350 no matter what you put it in. Even if it is a radio shack box. ..
You have some valid points and I do appreciate the reply. Please allow me to elaborate a bit.
Disposable or battery isn't easily serviced.
Poor reliability.
Poor regulation.
Battery quality and charge circuit is questionable.
Thanks for listening to my ramblings.
Note:
A YiHi rep did get in touch with me. I've made very little traction with my questions so far. That was expected, but they do respond.
The post was misinterpreted. 8w is what I'm using most of the day. It is the balance I've found with the particular atty. vs. maintenance vs. sufficient nicotine. I don't want to jack with it when I have work to do. At other times the wattage could be much higher. This isn't so much for me either. It's for friends, family and anyone else that likes low wattage vaping. As I've mentioned, there others here that have been vaping for some time and prefer a low wattage. This could come down to gauging interest. The chip has two things that I like. It can buck the voltage all the way down to 1v and it has a flat dc output. This isn't common and it will run nearly anything out there. No interest in high wattage here, just a high quality experience with a long battery life.
This isn't what I've experienced with low cost devices. Some problems I have with most of them:
Disposable or battery isn't easily serviced.
Poor reliability.
Poor regulation.
Battery quality and charge circuit is questionable.
Think of it as an optional teenager/valet lockout. All the power can be there if the device layout and battery can support it. The goal here is to make it safe for nearly all very high capacity batteries. Low voltage protection is one thing, the amp limit of the battery is another. Does anyone know if the chip will protect a battery with something like a 10A limit IMR? I'm not reading that it's able to do so. I'm not interested in parallel batteries due to size and safety concerns. The current chips are shipping at 50w(?) with 25A max draw.
I've seen a few Hammond boxes with clear and smoked covers. Still rummaging around for ideas.
Thanks for listening to my ramblings.

Twist are very reliable in my experience oem units, I do not know about the clones. But I like the way you think there yeah a sx350 is badarse apv. But I was trying to save ya huge loot 15 bucks twist maybe 90 bucks sx350 lol.. You can buy 8 twist and have at it lol..
I cannot say it enough, "if your content at 8-15 watts dont go above that cause you will not be content there after vaping at 20+ watts for an extended time lol.
I hate it, I vaped 8-12 watts first 4 months was content thought subohmers were crazy then built a 80 watt regulated device and started vaping at 20 watts then 24 watts then 35 watts. I over nic'd @12mg myself everyday and developed the shakes so I slowed back down to 12 watts and it is horrible.. I vape 2-4mg nic now and vape @ 20-35 watts again and still I like 35 watts the best. The room is always cloudy and when its chilly out that vapor hangs around for a long while clouding my vision. I would like to train myself back to 12 watts and have tried but to no avail.
Anyway yeah here's the acrylic build he gets better and better making them in that thread..
