Edited the first post to elaborate on why Nickel Purity is so awesome (using wires other than Ni200 for TC vaping), and also to elaborate on the low resistance issues this might might still have when it's released.

But given it's not coming out for a couple of weeks, and SXK are now actively investigating the low resistance, there is now hope it might be fixed in time for the full release of this mod.
Do you think rhey can uodate firmware via USB? I doubt VFs can be as its charge only noard. If they get to fix it with your input perhaps the next production batch will have it right (2mnths+ min.)

Yeah no updates by USB, only by returning and replacing the board - if they would even do that.

I'd hope the minimum would be less than 2 months. Chinese manufacturers like SXK tend to do two week batches and they usually sell out pretty fast, so let's say they made the fix next week, it might be in devices available 4-5 weeks from now. In the case of the Nebula I guess the first batch is already in production, but theoretically it could make the second.

But yes two months is certainly possible.

Gonna give this sucker a go. Gave away my mini VF to friend so I needed something to replace it. Plus I wanted to try out this nickel purity hub bub a bit. The weight of this device and the screws for the battery door won't bother me too much. Probably do away with the lettering as its entirely unnecessary.

Great stuff. SXK are sending me one so I will have one fairly soon, which I will do a full review of.

(Sorry, just had to drop that into at least one conversation ;) )
Sounds like your really kicking off on those reviews! my question to you is, given your avatar, do you in fact have the Hitchhiker's guide in your vids?

For a single battery unit and what still essentially amounts to a clone you are buying out of China, $64 strikes me as overshooting a tad on the cost. Especially with prices on the higher end devices dropping, and more affordable TC options becoming readily available.

Overall this just feels like it's a month or 2 behind imo. $50 shipped out of China and the option of black one...i might of given it more of a look. Just my 2 cents.
