    Why aren't we building within the limits?

    OK, so in the last couple days, I've learned a lot about building with in your limits in concern to mech mods, particularly tube mech mods.

    I have just done a bit of research on the KBOX 200 and it looks pretty awesome. One feature it supports that I have never seen before is temp control for NiChrome. It supposedly works pretty well. I was wondering if there are any other mods (that are already released or soon to be released)...
