A PBusardo Review – SX Mini M Class Part 1 & 2
In Part 1 we talk about temp control, some of me experiences with it, take a look at the SX-Mini M-Class top to bottom and compare it to the original, see the differences in the menu, and briefly discuss the numbers and signal for wattage mode. We then kick off looking at the device in temp mode with a discussion about Joules. Ahhhh the Joules!!!
In Part 2 we see just how the SX-Mini M-Class is doing temp limiting as compared to the DNA-40 and do our thumbs up and down.
We also announce the winner of the last contest.

The Post-Review Follow-up:
- I tried to make it evident in the video that the tech itself is having a hard time with the different static resistances of different attys which is causing temperature A not be temperature A on atty B. 🙂 I agree it wasn’t well stated. So yes, I’m well aware that it’s the inherent static resistances of different attys which is causing the need for substantially different temperature settings.
- I used the term PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) in the video. A more accurate term would have been PFM (Pulse Frequency Modulation). I’ll be sure to use this term in the future. The old dog can learn new tricks. Thanks to everyone who pointed this out for me!
- The section of me weighing the device on video made the cutting room floor. This is what happens when you’re editing at 4AM. 🙂 The original SX-Mini w/battery is 195.7 grams. The M-Class w/battery is 264.7 grams.
- Someone pointed out something in the YouTube comments and I agree. Another thumbs up with this device, especially as I begin to look at more temp limiting devices, is the recommended resistance for a temp control coil of .065 Ohms. This is a much more realistic resistance to work with when using NI200. due to it’s extremely low resistance. In other words, I don’t have to do a 30 wrap coil. 🙂
- Thanks for all the questions and comments. I’ll do my best to answer them all.
