The Brick 35W (yihi SX-300T chip)

[Nikkita6]

Check out what Rainbow Heaven has cooked up for us. Its a 35W that claims to have a Yihi SX-300T chip, and looks like a cross between the SX Mini, SX Zero and a Vamo, lol.

The aesthetics certainly do not appear quite as refined as the SX Mini however, its not terrible and it certainly much better looking than the Jellyfish and that other Joy4life 260W thing.

I don't have any information aside from some photos and early specs of the device. Also no idea what the pricing will be on this one but I would hope that they are not participating in any of Yihi's despicable Illuminati style market plans.

While I am at it, I might as well add this other product to the list. I have never heard of this manufacturer Shenzhen Gr-star however, I think this box is a little better looking than the Rainbow Heaven Brick 35W, and this box mod is 50W.

The specs indicate that it is made of stainless steel and aluminum (not sure which parts) and that it weighs 200 grams. The product page has tags for the Zero Modz clone so it clear where the inspiration comes from. This one looks like a cross between a Zero Modz and the new IPV mini with ZNA style buttons ..

Compare ZNA30with Gr-star grstar 50 w box mod

As big as that thing is, it could easily take a 26650. Look at all the space around the battery in the bottom shot.

 

[Nailz]

The brick doesn't look bad, but am thinking it is cheap, as it does look a bit cheap from the pictures.

Gr-Star looks pretty cool, has similar appearance as the zero.

Agreed .. it doesn't look like a snug fit to say the least. But come on, China is not known for smart choices, lol.

I am actually really liking the Gr-star, I think it looks pretty damn sweet. That being said, I have never heard of this company, so who knows how good the chip is, and the chip is everything at the end of the day.

I will try to find out more info on both, but the Gr-star wins the looks race in my opinion. I believe the frame is stainless steel and the body is aluminum.

they look inexpensive, not ugly, just inexpensive. I love me a good box mod, and this yihi chip is starting to.grow on me, so I'm sure that it will perform well but I'd personally rather spend a few more shekels and have something that looks like I spent a few more shekels. I love that companies are doing cool things with boxes more now though.

 

[Lefty]

Brick is an unfortunate choice of name for something based on electronics. Usually a term used to describe a failed chip flash. Just sayin' .

 

[compile]

Nice looking mod except for the fire button. its way to far down the mod to make me not want to purchase it.

 

[2ndInCommand]

Both of the above are good points I didn't even notice. Makes you wonder if the people that design these things use them sometimes.

I agree about the Brick, it definitely speaks "budget box" to me, but I don't think the Gr-star looks budget-y .. although I sure hope that the name Gr-star and the website url is not really printed on the mod. That woud be a fail.

Oh, let me clear that up for you, NO. The majority of the Chinese manufacturers do not vape at all, and yes it definitely affects their ability to create original designs that appeal to real vapers. Also I think living in a such a restrictive country where they have to sneak around and use proxy IP's to access the internet, FB, etc, further distorts their perception of what is cool, popular, and why. Their perception of "cool" often comes across as cartoonish, and gimmicky.

So true Nikkita. The ol' "This will to you provide most superior vapor. Your Fri ends you will amaze with taste sensations" BS.

Well said indeed.

We are dealing with an entirely different culture and way of thinking.

And the advertisements in "Chinglish" can only be compared with masterbating with a cheese grater.

Always interesting/funny/hilarious but extremely painful.

So you have tried the cheese grater thing eh?

 

[Steve.h]

The grstar 50 really looks like the beyond vape solara dna30 though. The solara is quite a stunning mod IMO.

Yup , first thing i noticed about the grip , it's very low compared to the other.

I never really looked closely at the Solara but you are correct. I did hear that it was kind of big though ...

The review for solara was pretty good among reviewers. You are kinda correct too, it could be smaller kinda tall for this mod.

Well, based on the fact that I have now confirmed that all of that horrid writing ie: manufacturer and url is printed on the body of the device, its an official fail for me. I really believed that it was just watermarking on the photos, because who in their right mind brands their device with the website url printed on it?

And it gets worse .. the same company has produced a ZNA 60 with "Gr-star ZNA 60" printed across of the front of it Ugh

OMG... Hahahaha.... I m quite sure a lot of people will be turn off by that! Url in their device is really a bad choice. The reason why zna is a success is due to its design form n size. Minimalist yet unique.

Lol, clearly this company doesn't get it .. its a shame too because it otherwise doesn't look too bad, but that url on it KILLED IT.

 

[nelsonm64]

anyone seen the brick 35 forsale yet? if the price is right...

 

[Zamazam]

Brick ain't the best name for a vw mod. They could name it the Nikkivapeotron and do better

 

[nelsonm64]

No, they coulda come up with a better one lol. cheers

 

[Dan DePippo]

Yes it's $89 here http://www.vape-hub.com/rainbowheaven-newest-vw-box-mod-brick-35-with-yihi-sx300t-chip_g62.html
Lil to much for me

 

[nelsonm64]

a bit pricey for me too. and, after thinking about this device I agree with the above poster about the fire button... why oh why did they configure the buttons like that... thanks for the link though

 

[Joshua Iles]

Personally I've seen some pretty cool looking boxes, and I kinda like the look of both of these. However, me personally after buying some "clone" twist batteries, I use the term loosely because whoever made that thing was smoking crack. I digress, but with all the cool looking products do they perform and seem to last? My personal experiences buying unknown brands is that all that glitters is not gold, or even gold plated. Hope I'm wrong, but I couldn't pull the trigger.

 

[Fictitious Character]

"The Brick" is the worst mod name ever imo. Going to be another interesting year for vape gear though it seems.

The grstar will be interesting to follow though as I like the look.

 

[Nikkita6]

Ahahhaa .. I thought that also, but that's the Chinese for ya. So much that they just don't understand, lol .. I should design a small, mid power range APV and call it the Nikki Stik, lol. It will have my voice pre-recorded on it to tell you what to do, and remind you to keep it sexy always, lol.

It could sell

Are they insane? That costs more than the SX Zero 50W, which is a hell of a lot more attractive, and doesn't look like a plastic brick Rainbow Heaven will also find out the hard way.

You made the right choice ... the Brick is a brick. Its a Vamo that desperately wanted to be a SXmini Vape hub is the only vendor they could get to pick up the Brick, and that is not a good sign. Vape hub is also selling Kayfun clones for $50 bucks .. can you say "rip off"?

Yeah, I really like the look of the Gr-star and it has potential but they need to nix the url printed on the body. China needs a 101 class in branding, because many of them mess that up as well.

 

[Smithy961]

Hi guys,
New here after seeing you folk saying about the gr-star.
Bit of a warning really...... I bought one a few weeks ago, it is an absolute piece of crap! Fires as soon as you screw an atty on, looked inside to see various bare wires touching each other!
It does come with the 'lovely' writing on the side also.
After reporting my findings to the manufactuer I was told unless I pay the shipping I won't get a replacement, which, I don't really want. The internals are terrible, totally unusable device.
Hope this helps.
Smithy.
