But it is needed for the firmeware and there are multi-battery boards with USB that don't balance charge. You could be right or the USB could do both. I'm just comparing the positions of the board components to the external pic of the mod and that socket seems to align with the photo, again assuming the mod pic is genuine. i can't imagine a mod having a USB you can't charge via but who knows what goes on in the long haired gits mind to paraphrase letsavit It is confirmed that it does both, but will be very slow for charging as they will have to boost the 5 V from USB to 12.6 V cutting the current to a a bit over a third of what the USB supplies as they will lose up to 10% in heat loss.

My monies on this being another vaporshark/evolv endeavor. Why else would they go to the bother of putting it in some nice little die cast box to test it out.

I'd imagine you'll be able to buy the standalone boards too though, to big an oppurtunity for them to miss with all the modders about these days.

Look at the size of the thing, what they trying to do send a man to Mars..... Sell out 200 watt tossers. Only two videos I have watched with that brandon and another with some long haired smug git that thought he had invented the wheel. Brandon..."40 watts is plenty"....other video long haired smug git slagging off all the Chinese temp control chips "that didn't work" while I was vaping on one that did. Took them 6 months to realise that heat produces vapor not watts....200watts to heat NI200 hope this can manage 0.01 coils...... "This is a researches platform" what like the last one, use some existing tech stick it on a board and let the users feedback help you advise how to use...... Is it safe to say your not a fan mate i think the board pics might be misleading regarding size perception. If you compare the board to the silver mod it's allegedly in in looks quite small in relation to the in hand shot. This assumes the mod pic is genuine of course. of course I'll be buying one Not at the moment. Totally wrong direction IMHO.... how about working more on temp control, making it more stable and user friendly..... Na can't do that so we will just do a 200watts monster instead....

A little presumptuous maybe, perhaps they've improved TC too.

Maybe presumptuous but I can only comment on what I have read and has been "leaked"

I reckon 70 mm x 17.5 mm if the Lipo pins are at 2.5 mm pitch, not bad as you will need a big box for a lipo or 3 18650s. VapingBad where you gone.....B&Q with your tape measure.....

No doubt theyll be available as board kits but it aint cheap having a tool knocked up to die cast a box just to test the board unless theyve found 1 that the board fits. Im just surmising from a business point of view if they released this first as a premade box mod with a VS logo on it desirability would be immense. Ker-ching.

On my laptop the dist between the 4 lipo pins measured about 15 mm, I think the standard pitch is 2.5 mm (7.5 mm across 4) so the pic is at 2:1 on my screen then just use a ruler, simples.

No desirabity from me, only just got rid on my last VS....never again, if the chip offers me nothing in the way on temp control and as I don't need 200 watts there be no ker-Ching from me there either..... You're right though, they seem to be in bed with VS, both U.S I suppose.
