I hadn't used my SXK flask for around 2 weeks or more, decided maybe I should pull it out and charge it up. Found 1 new battery @ 0.23 volts and the other @ 2.61 volts. Not a good Idea to leave them in the mod for extended periods I guess. It doesn't happen that way on my DNA40 mods.
Well one battery's better than none, the one was salvageable, I have no idea why the other one took a complete dump.

im thinking of getting a SXK 60w. would the waidea or kangxin clone be better? looking for a 1:1 clone.
I think iv read here that the waidea gave the best build quality but the sxk can do 60w and has TCR adjustment so you can set it up for titanium, you can also build down to a crazy low resistance. The other 2 only have 40w which is the same as the genuine ones

Edit

I ordered the sxk recently but still awaiting its arrival from gearbest

My sxk 60w arrived today, I am at work for now but just hoping someone could give me an idea of how to set it up to use titanium for when I get home. I understand a value needs to be entered but I'm not exactly sure what the number I need for titanium would be and how do you enter the menu to make this selection?

I post my photos to Facebook and link them here, there are quite a few other sites that you can do the same with.
Or you can use this free and easy program to re-size them: Irfanview

Right behind you...
If you have a Google/Gmail account, you can use Google Photos with lots of free storage. If you have Windows, you can use Microsoft Onedrive the same way. If you have Amazon Prime, you can use their free photo storage. There's also Dropbox, and a host of other cloud storage services. Facebook is probably the worst choice though. :)

Any of these lets you easily post an image link.

Alright, so I've had my 60w SXK TC Flask for a couple weeks now. Tested it with Ti01 and SS316. I found it really inconsistent with Ti01 coils as it took a lot of fidgeting to find a sweet spot with the NPR and temp. Had to play around with the NPR a lot to get it to hit right, cause temp protection was triggering with a wet wick when it shouldn't have. I was getting harsh pulls due to hot legs legs in my coils, damnit Titanium. You have to really wrap your coils tight as Ti01 is really springy. I found the best performance from 0.2ohm Ti01 dual 26g coils, NPR at 39 at 400-450 degrees. At the temp limit/dry wick, the thing likes to pulse every second to maintain the temperature.

It was much simpler with stainless steel. Firstly, its as easy to work with as kanthal, if not easier. Its much less springy and I was able to use thicker wires to build my coils. The first build was 0.2 dual coils with 24g SS316. Set the NPR to 10,temp at 400 and it vaped great right off the bat. Really, stainless steel is the way to go.

The chip is holding up, there is no low battery warning as I vaped all the way down to 3.2V before noticing a drop off in vape quality. The rubber finish is chipping in some places cause I carry it around in my backpack. When it starts to get bad, I'm gonna Plastidip the thing!

the only problem I am having with SXK chip, is that some time I have fully charged batteries and vaping at 60W regular mod, suddenly its drop the W down to 30-40W, Why? I never know, I have checked the caps and tightened them and changed my batteries from INR-25 to VTC5, and the same thig keeps happening with both flasks I have.

I had that when I was using my steam crave rdta on it, had it set to 60w and was being limited to about 45w. I can only assume it's an amp limit thing if your running a build around 0.1 in kenthel it will use alot amp. The device has a 20a limit

A 16 amp limit if I'm not mistaken, same as the 40's
(the above is incorrect, it's 20 amps)
