I'm new to the forum, so hopefully I'm posting this in the right section. I apologize if I'm not.
I'm looking into building my first regulated box Mod. I should mention before I get too into this, that I do have a lot of experience with electronics. I've been soldering and building my own circuit boards for years. (Thru hole mostly) My other hobby is building high end audio amplifiers. I've done basically this same thing in the audio world, buying Chinese circuit boards, finding a case to fit everything inside of, drilling holes and wiring. This is just small scale for me.
I want to do this right. I want to build everything with quality parts. I'm tired of dealing with crappy insulators and cold solder joints.
Basically, I want to run the widest range atomizer resistance I can, within reason.
What I've found so far is the YiHi SX330 V3S 150w chip

Although, I'm not sure if it's really necessary to be able to run so high on wattage, it'd be nice to have the capability if I wanted to.
That brings me to my first question. I've read in a few places that some of these YiHi chips have been giving inaccurate voltage readings. Is that a common issue, or an issue at all? I've also read that some of these aren't even authentic YiHi chips even though they're advertised and sold online as so. That doesn't really bother me as long as its an equal to or better version clone.
My friend directed me to YiHi in particular, but what other chips made by different companies are there? Is there something similar, more reliable, with a wider range atomizer resistance?
I don't have my heart set on 150w but I would like to have the ability to go up to about 100-120w
I watched a YouTube tutorial of a guy who tried to build the YiHi 100w version of this, and it turned into a video on how NOT to build this. lol the first thing he did wrong was he bought a box too small for everything to fit in. He didn't have enough room for his battery pack and chip to fit in, then running his wires, forget it.
So, learning from his mistake, if anyone who has done something similar could direct me to which 18650 dual battery pack they used, and the size box I'll need, that would be extremely helpful, and save me a lot of time searching online.
I think that's all the questions of have so far. Any input or advice I can get would be really helpful and appreciated! Thanks
