Luckily this is one of my cats redeeming qualities as it won't come near my equipment. Alas that's about it when it's around other stuff on the counter, but it's rare occurrence. I'm not a cat person but mine in particular was abused and we "rescued" him from a friend's children. So he is rather tame and just a shy different this way.

Aside from this I am happy to say my Q class will be in my possession today. Rather ecstatic that's finally showing up! Can't wait to use it!

Thank god I'm allergic to cats. Never liked pets that jump on desks and counters.
Thank god your Q survived unscathed.
On another note the movement on my panels continues and is happening more often.
I'm considering contacting my vendor to see if there may be a fix.

I don't know if there can be any fixes for it since the panels are curved. I think it's something Q owners will have to live with. On my Plato it has a one piece wrap around magnetic panel and it has no movement at all. Maybe that style would have worked better on the Q than 2 separate curved panels.

I studied the panels more and see the problem now. The pegs on the panels wear down over time making the panels loose. On my mod only the panel covering the batteries is slightly loose. The other one is just fine because I never remove it. I think if they made the pegs out of steel they wouldn't wear down as fast as aluminum. Maybe YIHI will fix that with future panels. I don't really see it as a big deal and it's something I can easily live with. :)

You may correct about that. I may try to throw a wrap of Teflon tape around the pegs to see if that helps. I wonder if stronger magnets would hold the panel in place better.

You might be onto to something there. Seems like wrapping Teflon tape around the peg would work or placing a small amount in the hole. The other thing I wondered about was painting a thin layer of epoxy around the peg.

Wow, that's an excellent deal. Too bad I already have both. :)

I just clicked on the link and it's a Q and M, not ML. Not sure if it's been changed or what.

There was only a black ML as an option. It moves pretty fast as they are quite well known. At the time I posted the link there was four choices as option. Looks like its down to only one now.

Yep, down to one choice (M class) now.... they must not have had many to start with but their add runs thru July 6th.....

Copy from web site:

Until July 6th, when you purchase a 200w SX Mini Q-Class you can claim a previous generation SX Mini for absolutely FREE!
I'm pretty sure it hasn't been easy pushing out the original M class. So this must be an ideal way to just get rid of them. I was severely tempted to go for when I had an option for the ML class. But I don't normally buy single battery mods much anymore well sans this 900mAh lipo DX200 that I've revisited after e-cig.com's wicked deal on the extra packs.

I think it would be great if YiHi came out with some rubberized panels for the Q when you are going to be out and about. Unlike Jake I don't have a completely empty pocket. Too many things but a couple of rubberized panels would really do the trick. I'm in vaping heaven with my Q and a Kayfun V5 on top SS316L on TC mode it just don't get no better then this. But I'm afraid to take it out 1. because I don't want to scratch my Q 2. I don't want to break the quartz glass tank on my atty.

I do have one suggestion don't get a Kayfun unless you DIY it'll cost you a fortune. It's just like my motorhome you can watch the juice go down every time you vape. But it tastes so good.
I think its worse with most of the sub tanks and any 2 coil build RTA's, or any of the Crazy Jucie TFV4 ... hogs.
