As far as to my knowledge from my queries, I can confirm that there is no temperature control feature on the clone. The clone uses a YIHI chip but not the 350J chip.

Hi guys, we will be finalizing the orders tomorrow therefore whoever that is still interested kindly shoot a PM over! Many thanks to those who have made the payment and for those who will be making the payment tomorrow, do notify us once that is done!

Thanks again for your participation!

Likewise! I've already kept my Goblin in the box awaiting the arrival of this tank haha

Like you said, we shall wait for the version 2

It's actually quite easy to see if your cotton is burnt or not, if you can't eye it you can just soak it in water and give it a rub. Liquid gunk will usually come off leaving behind the black burnt stains. This is what I usually do to identify the problem with my wicking (I usually snap a pic before I wick it with juice #notnormal)

You know, you could always go to www.steam-engine.org to calculate the wraps to achieve your target resistance. But I would highly highly (and let me stress that again, HIGHLY) recommend you read up on battery safety prior to sub-ohm building. This is not the best video to learn from but it covers quite a bit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O3h0ta-L_zc

One can only do so much but some contribution is better than no contribution since this is a community. It only takes one terrible event to affect vaping altogether and like they said, it takes one rotten apple to ruin the whole basket (or rather one burnt hit to ruin the whole evening lol)

Alright guys we've got some good news. Managed to get a considerably good group buy price for the IPV4 100W Temperature Control (TC) Box Mod at RM285.00. Batteries are not included but we will be looking at providing that option soon. It comes in Black or Silver. The one pictured below is supposedly the Black version however there are a few pictures that surfaced stating that the body and cover are both black. Once we get actual pictures of the product we will post it up.



Specifications of the IPV4 100W:
Yihi SX330 V4S chip (Temperature Control)
Aluminum body with custom milled display screen
Spring loaded contact pin
Resistance reads down to 0.1 Ω
Resistance reads up to 3.0 Ω
Adjustable wattage: 5W-100W
Output voltage: 1.0V – 7.5V
Supported pass through mod
Take 2 18650 batteries
Fully magnetic door
Auto ohm resistance meter
Voltage is calculated automatically as wattage is adjusted
Mini USB interface charging port

Good on ya for spotting that! The Yihi SX330V3C is the initial firmware that was launched during the first batch of products that were shipped out.

The SX330V4S is a different chip that provides the ability to upgrade firmware thereby offering temperature control for Ni200 as well as Joule mode. The firmware can be updated via USB. Either way as far as we know new batches of the IPV4 are updated to the latest chip and firmware before being shipped however we will try an obtain a confirmation in regards to that

I think I will make that change to avoid further confusion. Just got a confirmation that all units now come with the V4S chip

As for black on black here's one of the pictures that I was referring to:

"Hot legs - basically where a part of your coil is heating up to red hot without vaporizing any liquid to cool it off. Tastes like burnt metal. To help avoid this do a couple things:
1. Space your wraps so they heat evenly (i.e. heating for center and disperse to the sides).
2. Reduce the length of your "legs".

Basically the less wire hanging around unwicked the better. Unwicked wire tends to heat up faster than wire that's got liquid to cool it leading to hot spots."

KIV'ing you both for the IPV4 and will try and confirm the colors of the IPV4! And @Vail 300USD is a heck lot from FT hahaha

Interesting idea but quite a bit of work hahaha.
Just grab a pack of 7 for USD5.10 from Fasttech / https://www.fasttech.com/products/3030/1000...tomizers-7-pack

We are still in the midst of getting a confirmation for the stocking date. Till then no payments are required. As for batteries it is most probably Samsung 25R

Hahaha keep your wallet in a safe spot. Buy only what you think you need and ignore all posts from LYF/VMOG/forums from now on. You'll be doing pretty well then!

If he is selling that at the same price I don't see why we should proceed with the group buy
Like you said available locally without the shipping wait time

My mistake there. That's what I get when I slap on the specs provided by the supplier. The USB is indeed for firmware upgrades and direct charging is not recommended at all.

Regardless I would still pursue this group buy and get a confirmation on the options and the delivery date

I just noticed your post. We are still sourcing for batteries but 285 with 2 batteries that's quite a reach hahaha

For now it's without and the pricing will definitely change if it's with


To be honest I think that's a pretty good deal and I'm sure he will sell it separately meaning mod only and it might just arrive at the same price.

There are a lot of factors in play here. Take this group buy for example, since we are not placing a huge order (for example below 10 units and above 50-100 units - price will differ significantly) and including shipping charges and what not, that is one of the best price that can be provided with these few units. On the other hand if you look at an online retailer or B&M who stocks up on products and sell them, they will definitely: (1) order in bulk which will then (2) be offered lower price per unit and lastly (3) save on shipping and other charges. In terms of higher and perhaps assumed-ridiculous mark-up on the items, there is a MRSP (manufacturer recommended sales pricing) which means that they are not allowed to sell below the recommended pricing. With that being said, you would also have people who will mark it up ridiculously to the less-informed buyers.

We will always try and source for the most suitable pricing however if there is a better alternative available locally we would always direct you to that vendor

That's the problem with vaping products, there will always be an alternative either newer or improved. Lookout for this product by CLDMKR (Cloud Maker)'s Whiteout. It is supposedly a box mod that can be customized and DIY'ed and also supposedly puts an end to the need to purchase newer mods.

Edit: Added more eye-candy. It comes in 2 options; one with their own Ares chip and another the SX330J chip and they expect it to be priced around USD200 or so.

Yup totally agreeable and that is indeed a great deal! I reckon that'll be FOB price but again, that is still a very low price.

I think we can easily get 10 people in here for the IPV4 at that price, myself included!
