I've posted this on a half dozen threads but I might as well post it here too as people are still confused. It's a 60w device. Not 100watt. This device has been pimped as 100watts (Joe) and also pimped as 120W (Tyger Tyger). Just not true...I spoke to Joe himself in person who also confirmed his initial post was wrong and it is only 60w.
A 1.5ohm coil at 100W with a VTC5 would give you 5 mins of vape time @ 5 second puffs and that if the battery doesn't vent in your face.

Yes the chip can and will be upgraded to 120W. This mod with a single 18650 at that wattage is an accident waiting to happen.

That's according to steam engine. I used 1.5 as I think that's avg.
I have to disagree with this. A VTC5 is a 30Amp continuous discharge battery. You need 12.25 Volts to achieve 100w with a 1.5ohm coil. This demands 8.16Amps. That is less than 28% of the battery's rated continuous output. A 1.5ohm @ 200watts demands less than 12Amps. It's the low ohm builds that are a problem. This device cant even power over 60watts with a single battery, even if it could it could never achieve 100 Watts with a 1.5ohm because it cant fire above 9.5Volts, even then, 9.5V with 1.5ohm = 6.3Amps and 60 Watts.
My bad. Had a long day.
Me too!! Yes, but if you think about it thats about 60 5 second pulls at 100watts. Realistically, at 100 watts your pull will be about 1-2 seconds. So, if we take the high end of 2, this equals 150 super intense 100watt hits off 1 18650. Or 300 1 second pulls.
Yeah, not to pile on you, 2nd in Command, you seem like a nice enough guy but, even your name "2ndincommand" which I assume is a reference to your wife being in charge , is kinda sad. Marriage shouldn't be one half dictating orders to another, it's supposed to be a partnership, a give and a take, I thought. I know, different strokes, buy jeez, it seems your whole identity is wrapped up in your subservience. You place more importance on the length of time you've been married than the quality of your relationship. Just because you do something for a long time doesn't make it commendable.
As for your fear of posting a picture because you're afraid of someone knocking on your door, it's crazy, but ok, it's a rule your wife enforces, so I understand. But, if you are going to join an online forum and comment, but choose not contribute, it's your right, but I just don't understand it. Much like a marriage should be, the forum community is both a give and take...a place to get information, but also contribute; that's what makes it great.
Happy Thanksgiving.
Ya i was just using it as an example. I know some guys that vape at 80w that do more then 5 second pulls. Iron lungs?
Haha. I know a guy that looks like wolverine and wins a lot of cloud competitions. He has lungs of steel, 5 seconds @ 100w is nothing to him. LOL
Yup some people can do it some can't. Nothing wrong with it if you can handle it.
great job!
They won't be able to help themselves. They will flood the market as soon as sales slow down even slightly. Being the chip and mod maker, they have the margins to do it.
I like the shape nice front similar look to the zero mod but just as everyone is saying they could have made it a bit wider two 18650's they would have a winner 175.00 now thats funny...My thoughts are, this is sexy looking and I like it, but 100W on a single battery? Why? That right there killed it .. too bad, I love the way it looks.
The enclosure you have is a natural for a better board. For that matter, ~ $52.00 will get you 50 w: http://www.fasttech.com/products/1/10011580/2004500-sx300-g-sensor-variable-wattage-apv-box-mod
That's not a real SX300. There are only 2 authorized SX OEM's and that's P4U and Sigelei.
If you can find one in stock, good for you. Most of the vendors that are carrying them are sold out. I called Yeti and they said they should be getting their 2nd batch in next Friday. If I don't hear anything from them between Friday and Tuesday I will cancel the order and most likely end up with a VaporShark since I can get one whenever I want.
Who said it was? If you have the budget for a VS then go for it.
Amen brother..
Kinda throws the "American Quality" argument right out the window lol
