Reviewer comments on business characteristics
A pretty little box very compact with simple but effective features. Its biggest assets are: its size, its price and its quality compared to its performance.
A special function allows this box to work either as an electronic mod or as a mechanical mod. And believe me, it works !!!

Reviewer's comments on physical characteristics and perceived quality
A size and a weight minimized which allow to bring this box everywhere thanks to its banal rectangular form but very functional.
Good quality spaced interface buttons, without any game, with a relatively clear OLED screen.
The aluminum alloy used does not retain fingerprints but remains fragile to scratches, just like the plate in glossy finish, which will inevitably scratch in a circular manner, by the base of the atomizer, a little more with each screwing. .
The spring-mounted copper pin makes the fixture perfectly flush with the atomizer and offers good conductivity.
For the design, two colors are available: black or aluminum.

Reviewer's comments on functional features
The Chipset used by this box has the singular characteristic of moving from a type of electronic mode with a regulated power supply (PWM) to that of mechanical (DC-DC). Thus, bypassing the chip, it allows you to use it while maintaining security, resistances sub-ohm up to 0.3 ohm.
The power is adjustable from 5 to 30 Watts, which gives us a wide margin of vape between "cushy" and sub-ohm, with a maximum output voltage of 8.5 volts.
It is also equipped with several protections, basic certainly but effective against short circuits, reverse polarity of the resistance and resistances lower than 0.3 Ω
A preset function in memory is possible to program in advance five different powers. In five clicks, on the Switch, we turn on or off the box.
This model has a micro USB port under the device to recharge the battery without removing it, however be careful because the charge requires 1 amp.
The battery compartment is easily accessible thanks to four small magnets that secure the housing for closing. An extremely practical and efficient system. In addition, the lid has three holes to dissipate heat.

Vapelier's note on packaging: 4 / 5 
Reviewer's comments on conditioning
An almost perfect packaging for this product line which includes a small banner for the guarantee, an explanatory manual very complete (English / Chinese), a USB cable, a silicone case perfectly effective and well adapted and all in one cardboard box strong enough to protect the product.
I love this non-slip silicone case, soft and wonderfully well designed for the Sigelei mini 30.
Appreciations in use
- Transport facilities with the test atomizer: Ok for an external jacket pocket (no deformations)
- Disassembly and cleaning facilities: Super simple, even blind in the dark!
- Easy to change the batteries: Super simple, even blind in the dark!
- Did the mod heat up? No
- Has there been any erratic behavior after a day of use? No
- Description of situations in which the product has experienced erratic behavior
Vapelier's rating in terms of ease of use: 4.5/5 
Reviewer's comments on the use of the product
I quickly adapted to all the features of this box, ultimately very simple, with a basic screen simple, clear and without unnecessary information.
The regulated PWM function makes a smooth and continuous vapor, we are in a “controlled” vape and a constant rendering. On the other hand on the DC-DC function, we feel a more powerful vapor which normally runs out of steam over use depending on the charge of the accumulator. This second function works exactly like a mechanical mod and therefore consumes a little more battery than the regulated PWM function.
Recommendations for use

- With which model of atomizer is it advisable to use this product? A sub-ohm clearomizer would be ideal
- Description of the test configuration used: subtank clearomizer in 0.5 Ω and V2 origen in 1 Ω

The mood ticket of the reviewer
Although all types and models of 22mm diameter atomizers can easily work with the Sigelei mini 30, a sub-ohm Clearomizer would be ideal for this product.
A fan of mechanical mods, I appreciated this PWM / DC-DC change with a rebuildable one. Go find out why? We surely keep the habits we were raised with (laughs)
To summarize this box: basic, practical, efficient, efficient and some additional advantages, it is ideal for a regular daily vape.
A product that I particularly liked and that will certainly appeal to the female in search of regulated vape powerful enough for a sub-ohm clearomizer and without having to hold in their hand a kind of doorway.
The autonomy remains quite correct but falls rather quickly in sub-ohm mode DC-DC (mechanical).
Looking forward to reading you
