Niceeeeeeeee .. I received my TGT 2 on Friday but I am no where near ready to build it yet :cry: Sigh .. I will get to though. Does look handsome with the SXmini :wub:
Yeah, 23mm sits perfect on the SX.

It's pretty easy to build. I gave it a good bath (have a small head for my Sonicare that I use when I'm cleaning). Quick dry and let it sit. The actual build took 5 minutes. Then an extra 5 after not getting JC right, lol.

Main thing is getting the JC just right, but it's still simple, just need a feel for it I guess. 2.5mm is as much coil as you're going to get between the posts (I lowered it a little closer to airflow for my personal taste).

Aww thank you Haku :wub: Yes, this is the main reason that my review que is so deep right now. Its not my style to receive a product and then put out a review a few days later. I think you're being extra complimentary because you received your new SeXy Mini today :laugh:

Very interesting about the temp regulation. That's quick. Better to be a fast follower than an innovator in this case. Anyone know whether it is with nickel only? I couldn't find the chipset but I'm sure more information will be coming shortly

It's listed on their site, but when you click through, there is zero information available on the product page as of now.

From what I was told....
Nickel or kanthal
It's in R&D right now. But between TPC (where they will show it next week) and Chinese New Year holiday (2 weeks) it still might be some time till it's released. Hopefully they can beat the clock and get a few shipments out before then.

Awesome! Somewhere right not now there is a member with a D an g in their username who is prolly seething and mumbling with disdain under his breath. :laugh: I think peterforparts posted in another thread that Yihi had confirmed that this was coming and it was met with some doubt and eye rolling .. peter knows best :p

Got it a few hours ago and I must say I am really pleased. The 510 is flat and centered and the battery tube is straight as an arrow. The battery cap is a real PITA, as Nicole said, they need to use much wider threading the cap turns way too long.

Performance is outstanding. I don't intend on using this with my RDA's but I had to throw the Hobo on there to get a feel for the power settings. On powerful mode it hits like a truck, much better, while being safer, than any device I've used. I do have some excellent mechs but this outdoes all of them.

I love the memory settings. So far I have 1 set for the Subtank, 2 for the Atlantis and 3 for the Hobo. I have a lot of playing around with this before I master the menu system but so far so good. It seems to manage my battery better too. I've been chain vaping this for almost 2 hours and my battery is at 4.09 volts. With my IPV at the same settings I'd be starting to think about changing batteries.

This is an awesome device and I'm really glad I saw this thread. I knew I wanted it but you all gave me the push I needed. One more thing and that's that Coval Vapes is awesome. I paid the standard 189.99 but they did not charge shipping and sent it 2 day priority and threw in some juice. I would have no problem recommending them and I hope to get my temp control from them when it comes out. :)

Thank you for the review Nikki! Very awesome.:)
I just ordered #2 this morning!!

Thank you so much keepsmiling :) I love your avatar btw, so beautiful. I keeping going back on forth on whether to get a second one myself. I can't really justify it with the obscene amount of gear that I have and will continue to receive ... but something about a "back up" keeps playing in my head :laugh:

Good feedback is always a pleasure to hear :) While I didn't get my Sxmini from Coval Vapes, I have ordered juice from them and their service and shipping time was a great. A friend of mine actually referred me to them some time ago.

Yea, they sent me some juice and both are real good, Nana Puddin and Crunch Berry. I love Crunkberry from AIV and theirs is right there with it.
