Technonut It would be cool if you had the option to turn off/on the gravity sensor and use the front buttons to go up and down / yes/no.

That can already be done... ;) Place the device in one of the memory pre-sets, then, hit the bottom button.. It will lower the wattage.. Then, the other button will raise it. :)

The best feedback I can offer YiHi is KEEP THE QC TIGHT! Too often we've seen companies like sigelei and Robbot enter the market strong only to cave in to demand and skimp on QC to get units out faster. If they can maintain the quality of the mini throughout subsequent production runs they will find themselves in a good position to be a major force in the market for 2015.

After repairing a few VS DNA and rDNAs I wouldn't buy one. If you want me to post internal pictures of the build quality no problem. I realise it's a cheap DNA 40 for people but poor paint, fire buttons that fail in a few months, 510s that make a Vamo look good.

Vaporshark warranty sucks especially for non US customers.

Comparing a SX Mini with a rDNA is idiotic ;)

I just had a bad experience with them. I posted already about the paint chipping after a week. Sucks cause I like this device too but I'm just going to save up for this one. Hearing nothing but good things on it.

Thank you, it really is a great device ! It would be cool to get rid of the joules as well for maybe a puff counter ? Maybe the option to select what you would like to show there [emoji4]

Yes yes yes on the Puff Counter. I thought I was the only person on the planet who wanted one. My daily vape is a Vaporshark rDNA40 which I love, but I'm watching this and other new "mini" devices. If the SX mini had a puff counter I would order one in a heartbeat.

^^ Yes that! The gravity sensor is a bit awkward. Might be more pronounced with me because I've not had one on a mod before, but it would be nice not to have to use it. Having the power mode variable for the different memory settings would also very good. And while we're on wishlist items being able to run the upgrade software from a mac and having the ability to download different versions of the firmware would be really nice.

Sidenote - the mini got it's first drop yesterday. It thunked the side of the car, hit the driveway, and landed in slush. Dried it off quickly - took a vape...all good. It does have a small scratch in the body now if you look closely, but it still passes my drop test with flying colors. A week in now and I'm loving this guy.

After buying and many box mods since April this year this has be one of my favourites, many thanks to everyone for the quality reports and feed back.

Agreed. I'm really surprised there's not a lot more buzz in the community about this mod. YiHi's chips are extremely well-liked, and everyone I've seen review the mod loves it. This is a home run that really beats most of the box mods out there right now in multiple areas - fit & finish, size, visual appeal, selectable power curves, tool-less battery replacement, etc etc etc. You'd think it would be the hot new thing, but it seems to be going relatively unnoticed. I know it's not as cheap as the IPVs, and that temp control is the new hotness, so a lot of people like the Vapor Shark, but this guy is the Provari of high wattage mods. You'd think it would get a little attention.
