1. FINISH.
Is very nice - the body is made of aluminum
alloy and makes very good, solid impression. Impression better than iPV2 or Wismec RX200, so it is very good. Ergonomy is typical for such cubes, but thanks to the rounded edges mod lays in hand very well.
Buttons are big enough, with typical for Pioneer4You "plastic" click. However they work 100/100. Spring loaded 510 connection handles well all my atomizers:
At the bottom we have only vent holes.
Battery compartment is standard:
with pins on the spring and cover on magnets.
* power: 200W,

3. VW mode.
Measurements were done on real 0.26 ohm coil and Tektronix TPS2012 oscilloscope. Voltage shape, as usual for YiHi is just PERFECT:
What about efficiency?
iPV5 sets the voltage with mediocre accuracy. The SET-vs-GET power difference is about 5%. Of course having such big margin of power we can compensate it with no problem.
Above 150W we can observe TYPICAL struggle resulting from limitation of current of the dc-dc converter (up to 25A I suppose). But actually WHO CARES? Do you know anyone who use power above 150W?
4. TC mode.
As usual (again) for YiHi;
Ni200:
SS316:
We can see when the wick is getting dry the voltage interruptions became wider and it just WORKS. At the beginning we get a tons of cloud decreasing with drying wick. I'm not a fan of modulation but generally iPV5 deals with TC quite well.
5. CONCLUSION.
Reasonable mod at reasonable price. At about half price of dna75 mods we get the mod which is a little better in VW mode, and deals with temperature control. Of course it is far away from dna75 in field of configuration options and TC but not everybody needs it.
What I LIKED?
* VERY solid build,
* pleasant to touch, matt finish.
What I DISLIKED?
* could be lighter and smaller.
