Anyone tried USB-charging?
The charging stops with Battery2 at 4.20v and Battery1 at 4.15v, not really my understanding of 'balanced'..
Are your batteries new and a matched pair with identical charged cycles?
Assuming they are a matched pair. I would try switching the batteries from slot 1 to slot 2 and vice versa. If the same battery that would now be in slot 2 still charges to 4.15, I would assume it's a battery problem. If slot 1 still only charges to 4.15v I would assume it's a mod problem.

In other words if the problem follows the battery, it's the battery. If the problem stays in slot 1 it's the mod.

Cheers,
Steve

Vape Royalty came through for me today. Shipped from California in the afternoon on Saturday to my door Monday before noon. Usps didn't drop the ball on this one.

The Q feels really nice in the hand. No door rattle so far. A little lighter maybe with batts than the M class with batt. Had it for all of 15 minutes so I will have to clock more time to look for quirks. Right now I am using the Q and the Renegade sx350j v2 side by side.

Yes, a brand new pair.
Will try to switch the slots and see if that changes things, if not, I have a few other 2-pairs to try.

I'm just wondering, shouldn't the charger still pump both batteries to 4.20v? Any drifting while in use I would understand (if they weren't matched).
Well if one of the batteries were either defective or old they might not charge up to 4.2V. My thinking on this is to try and eliminate possibilities. That way when you talk to the place you bought it from (if you do), you can demonstrate you already performed troubleshooting and eliminated the battery as being the problem.

Cheers,
Steve

Mine should be with me tomorrow before 1pm! Cant wait.

My 2 pence on the whole YIHI producing a 200w mod on 2x 18650's is the same as car/bike manufacturers producing vehicle's to top 200mph +

or the sale of firearms!!..

. . . just takes common sense!

(massive generalistion i know but you get the point) D)

Hey, hi, help (!)
Can someone direct me to a downloadable set of instructions or a good video for navigating the Q menu? The yihi site doesn't have a pdf available and the instructions that came with the mod are lacking.
Much appreciated
Seen this one?

I replied before watching the above video. Looks like that video covers the software very well. If not any ML class instructions video will help as the instructions are the same as the Q class.

Received the black one today from Vape Royalty and really like it so far. I actually like the weight of it compared to my Ms and MLs. Thinking of taking that cheesy looking Q Class off of it, though.

I don't mind Q class printed on it. Since it's written in scrip it looks classy. :cool:

Maybe I just need to get used to it. I liked the ML Class script better. Not really that big of a deal, though. If that's all I have that I can complain a little about with this mod, I am happy. [emoji2]

When I first got my ML I didn't like the cutout on the back saying SX mini. After I got use to it, it doesn't bother me anymore the that ML and the Q have that on the back.

I think that makes it more comfortable to hold and looks nice, as well. A nice accent.
