No need to be sorry @vicTor
That feeling of ones first mod is priceless
I think it needs another picture at some point from a different angle!

hi @Hardtail1969

since you have 5 minikins I thought you'd be the man to ask, since i finally just got mine i was wondering if there is any necessary "firmware" updates i should do perhaps ?

will appreciate any advice.

Not really in my opinion.

hi @Hardtail1969

having an issue with my Minikin, so you the man I'm running to, hope you don't mind

it's to do with the screen, seems like it is "misting" up at the bottom, looks like "condensation" of some sort, for the lack of better words

have you ever had this happen with any of your minikin's ?

can try post a picture if you'd like ?

any input would be greatly appreciated

Hey, I got the same thing on a few of mine, it’s juice that has gotten between the top of the touch screen and the lcd itself.

I have taken apart one of my mini’s that had a autofire fault to see if I could access the area to clean it, and it is possible.

But as it has little effect on the operation of the mod, it’s not worth the effort in my opinion!

@vicTor I have four of these beauts.... The one I use the most (one of 2 Blacks) also did that. I ignored it for a while and when I was ready to open it up, the misting had mysteriously dissapeared... Maybe it was temperature related since it was winter and has warmed up here in Cape Town a little. Screen's been clear over a month now.

juice ?

could be, my filling is on the run and quite clumsy at times


thanks, watched a video on youtube, they opened up the mod but dint get to the screen

If you want to attempt it, the lcd is soldered to the main board by a wire, very thin, that can separate from the board easily. Also the lcd has a ribbon that seats on a connector on the main board that you will have to loosen

hi,

as I'm only a 5 month old vaper, I'm gearing up to upgrade from my iJust S to something much better and looking at the minikin v2

my question is to all the minikin owners - how do you find the touch screen ?

since i've never owned a proper mod i wouldn't have experienced a mod with actual buttons, so staring off with a touch screen mod, would i manage ?

thanks

V2 is a great device. I passed up the chance to buy a V2 from @BioHAZarD and greatly regretted it shortly after

@Mr. B must agree, I must admit though, the v2 was my first proper mod so have had nothing to compare it to but I'm very happy with it, so next mod will have big boots to fill

even the mist on the screen is slowly clearing up, yay
