That new 100 watt sx chip is intriguing though

That chip looks like it will do really well in a shapeways box cuz of the buttons I cant seem to find any holes on the board to wire your own switches into it

Yeah, that was one of the things I was looking at. I'm sure people can get creative with it either way though.

Can you not by as low as 1 unit. I was in touch with yihi and they were willing to do a sample sale of a low as 1. Of course this was within the first few says the chip was released. They do have larger chips also.

I would be down. I have already built 2 of these boxes and thinking about a third. But only if the price is below the price I am currently paying with is like $65 iirc.

Wow! I did not expect this kind of response. Seemed to over like a lead balloon on Reddit with only a few responses.
I understand that the MOQ is 50. Someone was quoted $35 each.

Correction: MOQ is 60 and I have requested a quote.

Did anything happen with this? This is a pretty nifty idea to do group buys. How would you go about getting materials out? Is this for an area group etc? I'm new to this forum so just trying to figure out how one goes about doing this and getting products split up amongst the group etc..

It is just getting started in the planning stage. The MOQ is 60 and still don't even have a quote yet.

They have a new sx350 v100 100watt version of the chip possibly coming out for modders eventually. there is a video up on youtube. Looks like a 100watt version of almost identical looking chip.

Is the SX350 the chip to get? I, we, saw the video of the SX350 doing 100w+, but what is going on with the release of the SX330 v3 100w. To be honest, I don't care about the accelerometer. I think that is mostly the consensus? I have been on this 100W bandwagon since its inception, but I still want some more information. Yihi's website is down, and what's the difference between the SX330 v100 and is the SX350 and SX350 v100 only a firmware difference? This SX 3xx 100W chip and the Stingray X clone are the only items I am set to get. Let's hope for some clarification on the chips soon. I think when Yihi's website comes back up we may have some answers?

I'm in if it has 2 18650 or 26650

This thread is not for the device, just the SX chip itself. I have someone making some nice 3D printed designs for dual 18650's at this very moment...if that is up your alley PM me or look into into some DIY Box mods.

Update: Quote was rejected from Alibaba with no explanation why. Grrr...:mad:
RFQ Unsuccessful.

Unfortunately, my attempts to get quotes for the SX350 from YiHi and Alibaba were unsuccessful.

I was told “Unfortunately, our company NOT agree the group buying.” By YiHi

Alibaba Rejected the RFQ several times.

Anyone else want to try?

LOL. I have been dealing with Alibaba since '08. I'll chat with them tonight? Which chip would you like quote on?

...I'm only interested in the SX3xx v100's

We are interested in the SX350 with up and down switches soldered on.

I don't believe the SX350 V100 will be available to the general public but it won't hurt to find out.

MOQ 60 @ $45...for Mod Builder...They asked if I was Builder or Reseller.

I will log in tomorrow at a different time on a different account and try as a reseller to see if that changes MOQ or price. In my experience, I have found it's best to mix up the times you get quotes...and from different reps.

Wolftek, I did not ask about switches soldered on. What I do know, is the last firmware update, or the previous, allowed the use of additional solder points to be used to allow switches, in turn, eliminating or bypassing the accelerometer.

Will try for another quote 12 hrs from now.

Aah, you know the ropes. Good
Yes, I did ask for soldered up/down wiring on the RFQ from Yihi. I guest the reference to "Group Buy" set off the flag for for that one. (live & learn) :)
Alibaba's response was something along the lines of "Insufficient data for a meaningful answer." <(GeekAlert) :) "Rejected"

I'd be down for a tentative 4 maybe 5 at that price.

On the Up/Down switch wiring front: It is my understanding that YiHi is going to make the solder pads larger for easier soldering at some point in their production. It is easy to break these solder pads and traces if you are not careful. I have done it trying to relocate my wiring. And I worked in high school as an electronics tech.
