Review of Pioneer4You IPV5 200W
Pioneer4You is familiar to almost any experienced vaper, in our blog there is a review of the previous “full-size” box mod from the Chinese IPV4S, which became a redesigned version of the IPV4. I can say that after six months since writing the review, the mod, although it has changed owners, still works without problems and has only lost its external presentability even more due to peeling paint. The main complaints about the mod remain the build quality (cover and crooked joints) and the easily scratched coating. Otherwise, the “ipvikha” works without complaints, for which we should primarily thank the filling – the YiHi SX330 board.
Packaging and equipment
The buyer receives his mod in a cardboard box with a stylized graphic image of the mod. On the front side there are the inscriptions YiHI SX Pure Technolohy (we will return to this technology later) and IPV5, on the side edges there is a mark about the color of the mod case, a link to the manufacturer’s website, the name of the board SX330-200, certificate icons and warning pictograms. buy vapes online canada On the bottom of the box there are contact details of Pioneer4You and a large warning inscription “Caution!
