70 grams more! I will strip it down and find the lead! ;) I thought the SX Zeros were heavy!

On another note how is the 510 on the M Class? It looks right. I sold 2 of the revision 2s because the flat 510 was short central and all wrong kept the original slotted one!


I saw pics posted of them on a scale.. I'm not certain if they had the battery installed or not.. The M's 510 pin is very good IMO. Nice and centered. Mine is smooth and flat.. It doesn't look like the pic from the UK ecig store, which looks like it has another pin in the center. I was happy to find that my Magma screws down totally flush. ;)

Purely speculation on my part, but perhaps the reason that YiHi switched from SS to a zinc-alloy, is for better paint / finish adhesion than the S Class.. I would imagine the zinc-alloy would be lighter than SS, but obviously, is not.. :?:

Did I see somewhere (Techonaut maybe?) posted that the M is about 20% heavier than the S? My eyes aren't great, so I might be mistaken. Anyone?

S-Class = 6.8oz / 195g (with battery, no tank)
M-Class = 9.2oz / 260g (with battery, no tank)

Measured with a postage scale in both ounce and gram modes (not a calculation).

I saw pics posted of them on a scale.. I'm not certain if they had the battery installed or not.

Based on my measurement just now, it was with battery.

Mine is holding up great over two 1/2 months of heavy use. One tiny scratch. I can't complain at all. Some people have had juice spillage do some damage I've heard. Not me.

Same here. Had it for about two months without any issues

Hello everyone. I have seen some where in this post about ordering from Ginger Vaper for the SX mini M. How many people have ordered from them before and how is this company? I have heard of Yeti but they are out of stock and Vari tube. Which is better to order from? I would like to purchase this mod as I have been following it and everyone seems to be happy with it. I have the Vapor Shark RDNA 30 and it went back to be fixed before I even had it for 4 months which is a good thing that something went wrong before the warranty ran out and the paint on the Shark is also crap and only seen a few people whom had issues with the SX and the warranty is longer which gives it another plus. Thanks

I got my S class from Ginger Vapes. Received shipping notice same day. Took a little while to get out the door but, it got here fast. Came with the box of course, a nice carry bag and two bottles of juice. Very good service in my opinion.

+1 for Ginger Vaper.
Had gotten 2 S classes from them in the past and received my M class, along with some juice today.

I have every intention of picking one of these up to replace either of my S-class Minis when one of them fails. Which, based upon total amount of time used, frequency of usage, and current state of functionality... should be roughly sometime around 2021. Dang it. In the meantime, I shall proceed with enjoying the M vicariously with the help of my ECF friends! So keep those pics coming.

I would elaborate on the amount of (unintentional) abuse my Minis have suffered at their owner's hands since November of last year, but suffice it to say they are among the most reliable pieces of vaping equipment I've ever owned. The M appears to be carrying on that legacy.

darn it! i have 2 s class minis and i swore i would let this round pass. i have been happily vaping my 2 minis non-stop since i received them with absolutely no problems at all. they continue to be the finest pices of vape gear i have ever purchased to-date. i reasoned they were perfect for all my vaping needs and could let the m class pass until a new design surfaced(perhaps a dual battery mod?). now i continue to read this thread and find a creeping mod envy and a slight itch to grab a new sx- mini. i will continue to follow the progress of new deliveries and the ensuing comments- i believe i can resist a purchase but my only hope is to ignore this thread and probably the entire forum and i don't want to do that ... keep the raves coming and i shall see how much willpower i really have. the one nice thing i have noticed is many more vendors are carrying the m class than ever had the s class so buying should be no problem when it comes to being in stock. at least i think that is a good thing....

Yeah, I got the bug too, peterforpats. :laugh:

Can't justify the purchase right now for a couple of reasons though: First and foremost being that I'm moving into a new home soon and need to keep the reins tight on discretionary spending (which the missus tells me includes vape gear for some strange reason). I'm also still entirely 100% happy with the performance of my S's. This is the only instance I can think of where a new iteration of a favorite vape toy has come out and I don't feel like I'm missing out on something huge by not upgrading.

And sure, I could always hock my S's in the classies to fund an M, but no way. Til death do us part.

wow, were we seperated at birth? feel the exact same way. i might get a new one but i will never get rid of my 2 to do it. no one has ever adequately explained why i need tc- i never have a dry hit and that seems to be the main reason for having tc. i vape just fine right now so someone is going to have to come up with a more compelling reason especially since there is absolutely nothing wrong with the 2 i have now....

interesting post and my reaction is.....big wup. when i vape i could care less about exactly how much vapor i am producing, how much heat i am producing, or how long or short my vape time is- i press the button and inhale a flavor i enjoy and all the rest is just window dressing. it either is good and satisfies or it doesn't. actual measurements mean little and "joules" accumulation is really irrelevant for me. a great mod that delivers time after time counts not glorified "puff" counters. while the technical data may be important , it means little to me. i appreciate the different modes because they effect the quality of the vape. the rest....yawn. it is like the old adage-"no one wants to hear about the labor pains they just want to see the baby"...
