    Once again I say hello and welcome to today's review of the SX Mini MQ device from YIHI. This device was sent to me from Sourcemore with a coupon code for my readers that brings the price down to $40.39 when purchased from them, coupon code is SMCM. This device is really feature packed and also a very tiny device compared to other devices that take a replaceable single 18650 battery. The maximum power output of the device is 60 watts and can output 8 volts, for those of you the use temperature control and power curves the SX Mini has that covered, there's also a VT coil mode that is used when using YIHI VT coils that prevents dry hits from occurring. Let's get started shall we.

    FIRST IMPRESSIONS



    Being such a full featured device I was surprised the packaging was rather simple with a slide out inner container with the device sitting in a foam cut-out with the charge cord, user manual and warranty card laying below it. I knew the device was going to be small but didn't know it was TINY. I instantly loved it once I picked it up and placed it in my hand. The aluminum body cuts the weight down to a good feeling device that's not heavy or a featherweight either' I find it in the goldilocks realm feeling just right.

    I held it in both hands looking to see if either hand made a difference firing the device and I found it didn't really matter but having the spine of the device resting in the crook of my fingers felt better than using it in my right hand. I find this to be a very classy looking device and love the mirror finish of the backside but that fades away quickly because it's also a fingerprint magnet that takes the shine away from the mirror finish.

    The buttons all feel great and are responsive with their size being just right improving the mods appearance. On the bottom is where the battery tube and charge port are located. I am not a fan of this style of battery cover being a twist off, threads are fine on it but being so small and me having large hands I can't really get my finger and thumb into the cut outs of the cover, a word of cation to you is don't tighten the cover too tight because it will be a bear to loosen and remove.

    The top plate has the 510 pin being offset and not centered which is fine, YIHI also went the extra mile cutting grooves into the top plate for old styled atomizers that require their air from the 510, those old tanks are still in use for some folks and it's nice YIHI thought about them. Atomizers up to 24mm will fit without any overhang.

    As I mentioned earlier this mod is so feature packed and it's menu is really easy to navigate. I wanted you to see all the features and how easy it is to access them so I include the manual.

    The working display screen is small and narrow but very easy to read even with my aging eyes. Displayed upper left is the battery bar with the puff counter below it. centered is the power mode used with the OHM's applied in the upper right corner and voltage applied below it. I don't use temp control or power curves but I will show screen shot pictures of their images on the display screen.

    FINAL IMPRESSIONS


    I think you can tell that I really like this device, YIHI always makes great devices and their chipset is supposed to be one of the best for temp control not being DNA. I can tell how much smoother my vape is in wattage mode from other devices in my personal rotation.

    Having a simple menu that is also easy to navigate is also a big plus in my book.


    MENU

    * ON - 5 Quick Presses Of The Fire Button


    * OFF - 5 Quick Presses Of The Fire Button Then Press Exit

    * LOCK/UNLOCK ENTIRE DEVICE - 3 Quick Presses Of The Fire Button

    * LOCK ADJUSTMENT BUTTONS - Press And Hold Both Adjustment Buttons Simultaneously

    * POWER MODES, CURVES AND EXIT ( OFF ) - 5 Quick Presses Of The Fire Button Then Choose


    I would like to use this during work but I wouldn't dare ( I'm in construction ) but it has been the only device I've used at home and out and about. My only 2 cons for this device are the puff counter erases all puff when you plug in the charge cord, this doesn't bother me but it might bother others. The other con is the battery cap and getting my large finger and thumb in the gaps.

    I will tell you that if you are looking for a fully featured device at a great price point that's built very well than I would check this one out. I recommend the SX MINI MQ class device 100%. I would like to thank Sourcemore for providing this device for my review and thank you to all of you that read my reviews.


    THANK YOU
