Speaker A
There was something about the original SX Mini SL Class that really bugged me. So, does the V2 address that issue?
Speaker A
or evolved dna and just like those it has its friends and foes personally doesn't really matter to me as long as it does what it claims to do and doesn't bugger up after a short period of time so the original sl class was released
Speaker A
[Music]
Speaker A
alterations and for the better in my opinion so have at you with a few specs shall we size is 89.1 by 42.3 by 30.2 mil and weighs 136 grams it will take a single 18650 battery with the adapter
Speaker A
[Music]
Speaker A
variable voltage and temperature control so i mentioned the one thing that was bugging me at the start of the video and this is it i'm pleased to say there's a massive difference to the threading on the battery cap
Speaker A
[Applause]
Speaker A
it bodes well so do you fancy tagging along as i look at the functionality of this sx mini sl class v2 yeah let's go come on the eehee chip has been upgraded from the sx4a5j to the sx730j yet bypass and buck and
Speaker A
So,
Speaker A
battery as a percentage number of puffs mode which is wattage here resistance power curve bar and then the current voltage and the number of amps the battery is pulling five clicks of the fire button doesn't turn the device off it sends us into the
Speaker A
[Applause]
Speaker A
right this time we can go down to the mode choose between watts temperature control variable voltage and back out next we have the puff counter which will show us the number of puffs for the lifetime of the device as well as the
Speaker A
[Music]
Speaker A
temperature units we can choose between celsius and fahrenheit and finally time out choose how long the device stays on between 15 seconds and 90 seconds back exit and out so with power curve we can determine what kind of vape we're going to get
Speaker A
[Applause]
Speaker A
but there's also the option of three user definable patterns so if we edit the first one and change the first 0.5 second strength to 150 move across this one can be 116.
Speaker A
[Music]
Speaker A
[Music] so although it's plain to see that the joystick button takes care of most of the menu functionality is still three clicks of the fire button to lock the device and there'll be a lot of people out there pleased to learn
Speaker A
[Applause]
Speaker A
well the design and build quality is an improvement over the original for starters and it's not likely to bug everyone but the battery threading is no longer an issue for me battery management seemed to be more efficient too from the new chip
Speaker A
[Music]
Speaker A
strength still quite a heavy mod and the chip gets confused between locking and displaying the menu screen and the menus take some getting used to powering down is also a bit of a pain in the ass there goes there's a quick look around
Speaker A
Ah, the YiHi chip, and it's as prolific as the Voopoo Gene or Evolved DNA.
