Thanks for this, Jim.

Wow, so there is a binary for V2 chips.

Version "2203" of V2 chips, I'm assuming -- that's what confused me into thinking v2.32 was the V2 chip.
Perry from Varitube said on FB that their logo-maker has a version 2 now.
I never screwed with it but it might be fun.

The SXI-Q logo maker isn't for the M class it's for the ML class and V2 chips. If someone wanted to change the images on the M they'd either need to use some well known hack tools or send them off to Yihi to change for them.

Q: Is there any possible way that there will ever be a Logo Maker for the M Class?
A: Pls email us the logo you want to us, we can help you make and then you upgrade for your M CLass device. Please email your logo to Support@yihisxmini.com. Our team will contact with you after get ready.

That's really weird, no other .sxi in my package than the one for the ML. And nothing in the SXI-Q directory either.

They have not bundled the modders board software with the Sx Mini before either

Or have they and I missed it
Thinking @JimScotty0 extracted that from some other file and it was placed into the SXI-Q directory or perhaps something is going on in the background. It's date appears to be dated for 1/21/16 for the V2 but the date of the ML's is 1/14/16. IDK but I don't have it anywhere on my drive's.

I believe it is included in the SXML download
http://www.yihisxmini.com/download/SXmini_ML_Class_V2203_20160114_SX_Pure-English.zip

You will find it after installation as YiHiSX350J_V2_V2203-20160121-English.SXI in the "C:\Program Files (x86)\YiHiEcigar\SXi-Q" folder for a default installation.

I just installed it fresh, for the first time and am not seeing that file in the c:\... path, nor in the unzipped directory.

I do see a "SXmini_ML_Class_V2202_20160110-English.SXI" file in the c:\... path. Not sure if that will work with my "modders" version of the V2 chip. I'll know once it gets here.

It looks like you have a later version that hopefully will become widely available soon.

I'd guess it will come in with the latest version available at the time of shipping but your best bet is to contact Perrry at Varitube and ask. There may be a custom firmware for the Renegade X box's I'm not sure. sales@varitube.com

Yup, I've asked. Still waiting for a reply on that question, but he did get back to me about the TCR feature being included, which was my main concern. Well, kinda, his reply could be interpreted as it's possible with an update, but not in the version that ships.

Edit: After much back and forth (on the weekend, no less), I got my answers:

It does ship with a version of the V2 modder's chip that has TCR build-in. Whew.

The updates will be available on the Yihiecigar downloads page. There is no special version to ask for (i.e., beg for). Also good.

Ok, I think I now know what happened. I did install this but thought it was the same. I guess not. Here is the info and it is still available but probably not for long.

This was posted by Perry around noon yesterday on the SX Mini Brotherhood FB page:
UPDATE: IT SEEMS THE RELEASE OF 200W WAS NOT INTENDED. YIHI HAS REMOVED THE SOFTWARE AND WILL BE ISSUING AN APPROVED UPDATE SHORTLY. THEY USE 200W IN-HOUSE FOR TEST AND BURN-IN PROCESSING ONLY AND DO NOT WANT THE PUBLIC RUNNING 200W ON THIS BOARD.

LINKS TO FILES ARE BEING DISABLED AS A RESULT UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE.

It seems they did not upload the new driver setup program that is also needed.

Here is a link I am sharing of the program and the file. I will leave it active until they put up the new driver file as well. You need both of these....yes its completely different from the ML Class both the driver setup and the .sxi file

What is your J setting for this? I am using 35J 475F with the above setting with 0.5 SS Crown and getting very weak vape, I'm beginning to wonder if I have stuffed up.

I doubt telling you my J setting will help - but anyways i vape my Lemo2 0.6 316L single coil at about 195c (around385f) and 20J-22J...i like a non-warm vape.

Your issue is likely to be that the Crown coils are not fully SS, they have a non-resistant lead wire on both ends, with only the centre section being SS, so that means youre going to have to fiddle and probably go above where you would using a fully SS wired coil

Ive seen mentions of people running them at 40w and 460f.

Sorry i cant help as i sent my Crown back before i got my TC mods. I could never get more than 3 days out of a coil in VW mode....sent it back.

Even in VW mode the Crown coils didnt work until you got above 45, probably 50 is the real starting point in VW mode

Id probably try bumping the joules to 40 and dropping the temp to 460 and work from there, with gradual joules increases before id then try temp increases...

I do have a friend who uses the crown in temp mode, ill see what he uses and get back to you.

Update: Just spoke to my friend and he gave up on the SS coils and went to the Ni coil on the Crown for tc. Sorry, youre going to have to fiddle :(

Thanks for taking the time out to reply, Yeah I just raised settings I got better vapour but flavour just isn't there as it is with the RX200 and will go for Ni and give it a go. Think its time to go to the RBA with Ti, I have Lemo 2 to fall back on. Thanks again.

I can tell you that my main tank is a Lemo 2, ive found (personal experience from months of use and builds from 0.4 to 0.7) that an ss build of 0.5 or better will get you reliable results.
