SXmini mod ... Yihi

[Wolfenstark]

Not very long now I'd imagine: News - YiHi SX350 V250 new chip News

See that one says -selectable
Variable Joule, heat controllable, Temperature
controllable.
Though just by reading about it I'm not a fan on nickel wire if thats required. Well neither am I that fussed about temp control.
Either way still seems the techs moving in a good direction.

Just for you

I hate cell phones But I think I may be alone in that

Nope. You are not alone on the cellphone thing.

Phil often gets caught up in the minutia. Yesterday, when I told him that you can operate the device without ever going into the main menu his response was "Not without changing the memory slots". So basically he was pointing out that if you change the power from the main menu it doesn't change your presets. Personally I'd rather change the memory setting than go into the main menu.

Personally, I think it's great.. Just a matter of having the memory slots set in the range needed for the attys I have built. I throw an atty on, hit the appropriate memory slot, then use the buttons for fast up / down adjustments if needed. There's enough memory slots to get you close to where you want to be (if not there), no matter what's thrown on IMO..

My precious:

Received it about one month ago from Coval Vapes.
Paired with a Vertex v2. Hobo dripper incoming.
Life is good.

Haha, he replied the same to me too, but sounded like he was annoyed at repeating the same to all of us by the time he got to me.

I also said it was worth saving the time and energy, not to mention I just use the presets as a range for specific attys, so zin usually only going up/down by a couple watts

He's not use to getting corrected.

Has anyone had any issues with the Subtank(RBA Section) and the SX Mini?

I have the Subtank on it as I write this...using the OCC coil that came with (0.5). Just getting ready to wick and coil the RBA section right now. Will let you know how it goes.

You having an issue?

I was getting check atomizer over and over(with the preinstalled coils on the RBA), when I put the beauty ring on it, it worked fine. Not sure what the issue was, but it is working beautifully now.

I got tired of waiting for the extension tube. I made my own out of various mech tubes laying around. I HAD TO DO IT!

I know. It's hideous. it was unbalanced and long. It was awkward as heck to carry it around.

That's a 25mm Subtank problem for sure, not a mod problem. Have the same issue on my Cloupor Mini. When using the RBA I have to either adjust the hell out of the 510 pin on the Cloupor (it's not spring loaded), or use the easy solution like you, the beauty ring. I suspect the RBA "head" is not pushing that tiny spring loaded 510 pin down as far as the OCC heads do.

I went ahead and used the prebuilt coil just for a quick tryout. Mine was 0.66 ohm. Wicked it and put it on the Mini...nothing. I pulled it off and then just tightened everything down real good. Especially into the base of the Subtank. Works fine now, but first it was 0.00 reading until I did the tighten thing.

Oh well, that makes sense. At least I am able to get around it for now. That is all that matters to me.

Hmm weird, I am a little afraid to tighten stuff down too much. I don't want it to get stuck in there or something unfortunate. Thanks for the information though.

Well as long as "you know" its all good. I would be more concerned if you were like "Oh man this is great, I love it!" And you also got to at least try it in dual 650 mode.

Guys

It appears the SX Mini M Class is available to preorder at varitube and yetivape. Guess I'll be saving money for a second mini

 

[Wakefulpanda]

Just got mine in today. Been messing with it all night at work. I'm quite impressed to say the least. I am starting to get a little nic sick tho! lol

So the joule reading on this mod - Its not a set to a level and it won't go over that or reading the energy your coils are giving out ?
Its energy the battery is giving out ?

Noticing a couple of mods that have a bypass mode or say DC-DC, is that the same as a mech mod or is there a difference ?

Joules are a measurement of watts over time. They describe and measure the work done by your battery through your coil. When I run my new Samsung battery from 4.2v down to an indicated 3.6v I get about 19k joules. It helps keep track of battery health abd will be an integral part of the temperature protection in the m class.

Bypass mode allows you to fire a mod like a mechanical. The chip acts like a mosfet, allowing the current to bypass the switch and regulation and dump battery voltage into your atty. If I remember right, I believe 84watts is the max rating for your build for the mini run in bypass mode.

DC/DC stands for Direct Current to Direct Current power regulation. Think of it like a hose with a valve. Steady stream in, steady stream out, just like the power supplied from your battery in a mech mod except you can open and close the valve to adjust the size of the power stream. The other type of power regulation it's Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) and you can think of it more like one of those rotating sprinkler heads that pulses the stream to regulate to the desired amount of power flow.

Hope this helps!
