asMODus Minikin 3 200W Mod – a new form factor and a bunch of additional features
With genuine interest, for my part, I suggest you get acquainted with the Western answer to just a bunch of new products presented at the last exhibition in the Middle Kingdom. The new products from asMODus are already in advance accompanied by increased interest from consumers, and when it comes to the Minikin series, the second version of which became one of the best-selling box mods of 2017, no one will be able to pass by without dropping saliva.

Form factor, perhaps this is where to start. As you can see, he has changed dramatically. So the profile remained “triangular”, but now it has become asymmetric, plus anatomical notches have been added to the back side. According to the developers, this form fits comfortably in the palm of your hand. Perhaps these words should be trusted, because the manufacturer always pays great attention to this moment. But, of course, until you feel it yourself, you won’t draw any conclusions – because the profile is at least specific.
The color scheme is already decent from the start – both classic and bright solutions will be available.
The landing site, but rather the connector itself, resembles its predecessor. There is no information about the maximum landing yet, as there is absolutely no overall dimensions.
The control panel still looks ascetic and stylish. The fire button is large, the location allows you to operate with both thumb and forefinger. The control buttons were refused in the registration, since the display is again touch-sensitive, but now it is color, HD resolution. At the very base, a connector for charging and updating the firmware of the control chipset, Type-C connector probably implies fast charging. It is noteworthy that now a new member of the family supports wireless charging, while the manufacturer will offer his own version of the memory for these purposes.
Probably, due to the provision of smaller dimensions, the novelty will be able to use only 18650 batteries. But access to the compartment for them will now be from the bottom – a hinged lid with a latch.
The familiar, but updated, control chipset acts as the main conductor. It is stuffed with just a ton of new features. In addition to the capabilities indicated in the TX and wireless charging, our hero is equipped with an accelerometer, with which you can, for example, change the color mode of the desktop, I assume that he will take on some of the mod’s control functions. Another innovation is the vibration response – it will warn of short circuit, the absence of an atomizer, low battery charge and so on. And that’s not all – the password unlock feature has been introduced. Therefore, no one except you can use the mod. Moreover, even if the mod is stolen and reflashed, the lock function will work. However, this thing can also play a cruel joke with the owner, so it is not recommended to forget the set password.
