At SXmini, we believe a strong brand is not built only on success, but also on how it responds to challenges. Over the years, SXmini has worked with partners, distributors, retailers, and users across many countries and markets. From the beginning, our goal has always been clear: to create reliable, well-designed vaping products powered by advanced YiHi chipset technology, while listening closely to real user feedback. Like any brand focused on long-term growth, we have also faced moments that tested us. Learning from Early Product Challenges In the early stage of the PX Cartridge (Black version), we did not fully consider the wide differences in e-liquid formulas used in different countries. As an open pod system, its compatibility with certain e-liquids was not ideal in some markets. Instead of ignoring these issues, we collected feedback from partners and users worldwide. Our engineering team made continuous improvements, adjusted internal structures, and tested multiple revisions. These efforts finally led to the release of the PX Pro 2 Cartridge, offering much better stability and broader e-liquid compatibility. This process reminded us that real product improvement always starts with listening. Taking Responsibility and Improving Quality Control We also openly acknowledge an issue that occurred with the first batch of Puremax 2, where a battery defect from an upstream supplier caused charging problems in part of the shipment. Once the issue was identified, the battery problem was fully resolved in later production batches, and replacement units were arranged for our partners. More importantly, this experience helped us strengthen supplier screening, battery testing, and quality control…
YiHi Chipset Technology Evolution From E-Vapor Control to Multi-Industry Intelligent Control Solutions In the world of electronic vaporization, the true foundation of user experience has never been appearance or specifications alone, but the depth of control behind the system. YiHi's chipset journey began with a simple question:how to drive vaporization safely, stably, and consistently under real-world conditions. Over more than a decade of continuous development, this focus gradually shaped a control philosophy that now extends beyond e-vapor devices into multiple intelligent control applications. 2014 | The Beginning of Vapor Control In 2014, YiHi introduced the SX300 series chipset, marking its formal entry into electronic vapor control.

What Is Evolv DNA Temperature Control? Temperature control in Evolv DNA chipsets is commonly referred to as Temperature Protection. This technology is designed to: Measure the actual coil temperature in real time(using temperature-sensitive wire materials and resistance changes) Automatically reduce power output when the coil reaches the preset temperature limit Prevent the coil temperature from exceeding the defined maximum,helping to reduce dry hits and burnt taste In simple terms, Evolv DNA temperature control works by locking a temperature ceiling, ensuring the coil does not go beyond the user-defined limit.This provides a stable and reliable form of temperature regulation. This approach is well suited for users who prefer precise, predictable temperature limits with fine adjustment control. We refer to this method as “CONSTANT Temperature Control”,because the temperature is not allowed to exceed the preset limit. What Is SXmini’s Dynamic Heating Curve? SXmini adopts a Dynamic Heating Curve design. Instead of fixing temperature or power at a single point,the system continuously fine-tunes heating output within a safe temperature range, adapting to constantly changing real-world usage conditions. During each puff, the system evaluates: Inhalation strength Heating duration E-liquid supply condition Changes in the heating element during operation Based on these factors, heating output is adjusted instantly and subtly: Initial draw:Heating response is slightly increased to activate flavor faster Stable inhalation:Output is dynamically adjusted to maintain smooth, full flavor Low e-liquid or supply changes:Heating strength is reduced to prevent overheating and dry hits The result is a continuously fluctuating but well-controlled heating curve. This approach focuses on responsiveness to real inhalation behavior,placing greater emphasis…
SXmini temperature control does not rely on fixed power output or a single heating point.Instead, it introduces a Dynamic Heating Curve design. This curve is not a straight line.It continuously adjusts within a safe temperature range, allowing the device to respond to real vaping conditions in real time. How does the Dynamic Heating Curve work? During each puff, the system evaluates multiple factors, including: Inhalation strength Heating duration E-liquid supply condition Changes in the heating element during operation Based on this information, the output is adjusted instantly and precisely: Initial draw:Heating response is slightly increased to release flavor faster Stable inhalation:Output is dynamically adjusted to keep the vape full and smooth Low e-liquid or supply changes:Heating strength is automatically reduced to prevent overheating and dry hits This process forms a continuously fluctuating but well-controlled heating curve. Why does “controlled fluctuation” improve stability? Most traditional vape devices use: Fixed wattage Or a fixed temperature point When e-liquid conditions change, these systems often lead to: Normal flavor in the first few puffs Overheating in later puffs Or sudden burnt taste SXmini’s Dynamic Heating Curve allows temperature to rise and fall slightly within a controlled range,making it better suited to real-world usage conditions. As a result: More consistent flavor delivery Fuller and more complete taste expression Stable performance from the first puff to the last Benefits in open-system pod devices In open pod systems, the Dynamic Heating Curve provides clear advantages: Faster flavor activation Better heat control during continuous vaping Reduced risk of burnt taste when e-liquid runs low Smoother and more durable…
At SXmini, we focus on one thing: making flavor clean, stable, and reliable. Puremax 2 is designed for users who care about taste, control, and long-term performance, not just power numbers. It delivers consistent flavor while actively protecting the cartridge and coil from dry hits and burning. CALIBRATED FOR EVERY PX CARTRIDGE Puremax 2 is specially tuned for PX cartridges in 0.4ohm, 0.6ohm, 0.8ohm, and 1.2ohm. When a cartridge is installed, the device automatically detects coil resistance, selects the correct power range, and keeps output inside a safe and optimal window. Each resistance works in its best power zone. This helps protect the coil and keeps flavor stable over time. PURE TECHNOLOGY – ACTIVE DRY-BURN PROTECTION Puremax 2 uses YiHi PURE temperature control technology. The chipset checks coil temperature 200 times per second. If e-liquid becomes low or heating is abnormal, the device automatically reduces output before dry hits happen. This protection works before flavor is damaged, not after. Result: ·Clean taste no burnt hits longer cartridge life CONSISTENT OUTPUT, EVEN WHEN BATTERY IS LOW Puremax 2 uses a buck-boost output system. This keeps power stable even when battery level drops.

The Circuit Board Is My Starry Sky By Chen Zhenjiang — Founder of YiHi & SXmini Childhood Spark When I was ten, summer evenings were spent diving into a giant green dumpster in our small town. Old TVs, broken radios—inside, I found more than just junk. I found wires, copper coils… and dreams. As the copper unrolled in my hand, I saw my own galaxy forming. In scrap metal, I found my future. A Harsh Start in 2003 Fresh out of university with an electronics degree, I tried sales. Three months—zero deals. That’s when I learned: Oscilloscopes don’t lie. But people at dinner tables sometimes do. The turning point? One late night in a Taiwanese factory. The boss returned unexpectedly, ready to scold me for working overtime. Instead, he saw a young man sweating over a circuit board, adjusting an audio chip. He put down a cold Coke, and quietly walked away. Three months later, I became the youngest R&D supervisor. Carrying a Company on My Back In 2010, I founded YiHi Electronics. The name means “Billions and the Sea”: “Billions” — the vastness of technology “Sea” — the depth of Chinese manufacturing Back then, to save 2 yuan on a bus ride, I carried 30 kg of equipment to meet clients on foot. My sweat soaked my shirt, salt maps forming on my back. In a tiny rented room, I soldered every board by hand. Failed chips piled up like a bronze hill. The hardest day? I couldn’t afford 1 yuan for a takeout box after a client dinner. I walked away, fist clenched, old wounds bleeding again. Made in China — Written in Silicon We said no to contract manufacturing. “YiHi must be printed on our own circuit boards.” We rejected fake labels. “Respect in technology doesn’t come from pretending to be American.” YiHi Electronics Born in Dongguan, China · Since 2010 YiHi — Sailing forward with silicon, into a sea of innovation SXmini — A tiny device, with big ambition
Vaping offers a modern alternative to traditional smoking. However, not all vapes are the same. Understanding the differences between disposable vapes, pre-filled pods, and open pod systems can help users make safer, more sustainable choices. SXmini focuses on open pod systems to provide flexibility, performance, and reduced environmental impact. 1️⃣ Disposable Vapes What they are:· All-in-one devices where the battery and pod are integrated.· Designed for single use; the entire device is discarded when the e-liquid runs out. Environmental impact:· High plastic and electronic waste.· Short lifespan increases cumulative waste.· Limited flavor options, creating more frequent replacement. SXmini insight: Disposable vapes are convenient for beginners but generate the most waste and cost over time. 2️⃣ Pre-Filled Pods What they are:· Devices with a reusable body but pre-filled, single-use pods.· Pod is discarded after use, while the battery or device body can be reused. Environmental impact:· Reduces device waste compared to disposable vapes.· Pod still generates plastic and electronic waste.· Offers a limited set of flavors per pod. SXmini insight: Pre-filled pods are a step toward sustainability but still produce waste with each pod replacement. 3️⃣ Open Pod Systems What they are:· Refillable pods that can be used multiple times with different e-liquids.· Examples: SXmini Puremax 2, Puremax Q, and future SXmini pod lines.
