I purchased a genuine yihi sx mini silicone case from sweet-vapes. It seems to be a low price at $4.45. Only black color. If anybody intetested

It must be the going price since I purchased mine for $4.50 at MVS

I think you guys tipped off the yihi police. Suddenly all the sites are now $7.90
Cost me an extra $3.40 to go on vacation! :(

Wow you are right MVS 7.90 glad I ordered 3. On their way. Hope they aren't seconds or defects. I am pretty sure they aren't but YiHi or someone must've complained about the low price. I was kinda on the wall about getting them cause they were 7.95 at Varitube but when I saw them for 4.50 at MVS I jumped on it.

You Know someone said something about me being ...... about YiHi taking so long to come out with a better Ti firmware. The way I see it if you realize how many millions of dollars they are making off of these SX's I would think they could do it. These things are popular all over the world and you can just about guess at how much it cost them to make and they set the price at $200 USD. I figure they are making at least $150 pure profit if not more. I am not saying they aren't great but it has been 3 weeks since they came out with the firmware test. It just seems like to me they could at least come out with some news about the firmware or are they all out celebrating.

Wow you are right HC. Much better vape and flavor. Really Really good. Don't think I will wait for the next Ti firmware this works great. YiHi will probably just give me an answer like they did the guy whos second mod started chipping and the said why don't you just take a $1 sleeve and be happy. Like take an old cold tater and wait.
I'm the guy. And I agree.

I have noticed this KGD has a hard time keeping up but it is working. Have to close the air once in a while to get more juice in there then it is ok. Think I will do a little more trimming on the next one. Might try the Unkamen but this Vape Mesh is nice don't have to worry about annealing already done and it actually stayed pretty damned close to 3mm on the coil master. Maybe I will give the Rayon a go since I have a bunch in the motorhome with me.

I think you might want to look into your wicking material/wick density etc and coil diameter as you suggest. The source for the grade 1 titanium wire doesn't relate to the type of thing you are discussing.

Check out Qorax's "2-Cut Method" for Wicking. Then adapt the Principle to your RTA.
Works beautifully on the ErlK. Never a Dry-Hit or flooding/leaking.
Gonna re-Wick my L2 using that Method this Weekend.

Do you have a link to the Qorax's "2-Cut Method"?

I got my problem solved it was just using Kanger STM the KGD had swelled and took the top cap off and pushed the wick back from the juice hole. I think on the next one might try splitting it sort of like shown but just to keep the wick away from the juice hole. Might have gotten a little too much in there too but working great now.

Good Deal. Long as you got it figured out and Solution identified it's All Good.
Sorry, forgot you were using a STM. However, a variation of the Qorax Method would work quite well on the STM.
Matter of fact, I plan to build on of my STMs with the RBA Base and Ti some time. Already been thinking of how to adapt the Qorax Wicking Method to that when I do. Let me know how it works out for you should you try that.

Me too thinking exactly the same thing. Make a cut in the wick and split it at the juice hole. Plus I wrapped this on a 3mm so it is probably like 3.2. I have started wetting the wick and sticking it to the sides of the atty out of the way of the channels but when it swells it covers them but if I split it and stuck it down should work good. It works good this way with nickel at 3mm but with Ti I either have to go a smaller coil or split it.

The Yihi SX Mini Sleeve is definitely better than the ones you find on eBay. Individually boxed and tighter fitting. Nice complement to an already awesome mod. Well worth the price...
