IPV Eclipse is still unavailable for purchase, but we have already tested it thoroughly. Can the plastic bomber become the SXmini G Class killer?

Who is who. Yihi and IPV?

In my humble opinion, which claims to be the ultimate truth, Yihi is currently the best of the mass-market boards. Fans of DNA (without any e’s between the letters) will now unpack their eggs and tomatoes, but not a single person would buy the vaunted DNA if the box with an Iho board was available for the same price. Yihi are great, the mods were good until the SXmini G-Class came out. In terms of the chip, it beat everyone and everything, in terms of the case, it was a basement blank, painted by a disabled orangutan, who had both arms amputated. moti vape I was especially pleased with YIHI’s answer to the question: “Why the hell does a $200 mod peel off in 2 weeks?” My sweat turned out to be too acidic. Well, you get the idea.

And what about IPV? And the “pioneers”, they are like the Melkosofts, they release a normal box, then some utter nonsense, then a normal one again. Cyclicity, once it’s by the leg. The last product from the pioneers was Velas – an incomprehensible something with 2 accounts and some humps. This already gives hope, so, let’s move on to a more detailed review.

The packaging is ordinary and boring, a piece of paper above the black coffin of the box, inside is a mod wrapped in a white burial cloth, waste paper and somewhere in the depths of the box is an ordinary micro-USB cable. USB Type-C? No, never heard of it. On the back of the box there are as many as 6 colors. Beauty and beauty? Nope. The case will be dull black, only the color of the buttons and Fire change. Bottom line: choose silver and don’t worry, everything else is for colorblind people and other perverts.

The case and the first impression

I am pleased. Finally, the manufacturer thought about people with an intellect greater than a refrigerator and having at least some semblance of taste. The mod does not resemble a disco ball at a dance in Khoyniki, it has no flashlights, whistles, colorful inserts and other crap that increases male dignity. Cheap and cheerful (c). The case is very similar to the dashboard of the second Golf and the indestructible third Passat. Praise be to Allah. Seriously, this is one of the few mods that will survive a nuclear war and to which you will not have to attach a contraceptive item.I

The battery cover is normal. The mod does not wobble on the table, the batteries are inserted, removed, do not fall out. You can live. What surprised me is that when opening the cover in natural mode, the minus battery looks out of the right slot, the plus battery looks out of the left. Not according to Feng Shui (yeah, I’m already starting to find fault).

The “Carbon” turned out to be plastic rubber with paper inclusions glued on with “Moment” glue or its Chinese equivalent. Nothing remarkable. The quality of the plastic. Have you ever sat in an old Toyota or Volkswagen? Well, then you know everything about this plastic. Indestructible, fell from the table, onto gravel, onto concrete, onto asphalt. A young Labrador ran around the garden with it, carefully trying to chew it. The box didn’t give a damn.

Buttons

The buttons, both under the screen and Fire, are made of thinner and painted with an unknown material. The paint will fly off, it’s clear as day, but it has survived 2 weeks so far. The under-screen buttons rattle. Not very loudly, but noticeably. You can use them as a rattle for your offspring.

Impressions on the board

Oscilloscope and other shaitan-machines? Forget it, only language, only subjective assessment, only hardcore. The board fries. Fast, good, reliable and powerful. Exactly as YIHI should fry. I will not compare with others, I am biased, but insteam.by remembers comparisons of the Sigel, God forgive me, 213 and the Pioneer. When the Sigel warmed up 3 times longer. No difference in the variwattage for frying with the G Class was found, the feeling remains that the IPV Eclipse sucks a little more from the batteries than its big brother. This is if the charger is not lying.

Temperature control

Well, what can I say, a regular, perfectly working TC without dancing with tambourines, adjusting the TCR for stainless steel and fortune-telling – will it start or not, will it throw in the variwatt, did I download the right profile, where can I find a computer to upload the profile. 235 degrees, long press on the middle button, block the resistance (if desired, calibrate it right away) – go ahead. Observation: the chip underestimates the resistance by 0.005 ohms, most likely because of the case.

Result

Well, so what. IPV is in its repertoire, they break down on little things that could be fixed for a couple of cents. Who cares about little things, a classic mod with an excellent board, for reasonable money, convenient, without any flaws in the assembly (almost). What else does a person need who does not want to carry a pocket disco with him? In my humble opinion, the best budget mod of 2017.

Pros:

Price

A board that is cut down on its price, but with all the important functions.

Firebar

Classic and convenient design

Indestructible.

Cons:

Buttons under the display and their paint

Buttons rattle a little

510 connector is not quite in the center

Plastic is a little too cheap, but indestructible
