This was my chosen replacement for a siegelli 50w which has a faulty oled screen
1st impressions: visual
Good size, no sharp edges, nice finish, Back panel doesn't sit flush with edges but a very clean looking device minus the 2 tiny scratches on the front.
2nd impression: inside
Opened it up felt a bit gutted looks like QC didn't care.. Tatty battery tray and soldering looks a bit messy not to mention battery is upside down this time.
3rd impression : turn on and first use.
Straight away noticed the oled screen is slightly off the window kinda away on one side and slightly angled .
It is infact a 7-50w not a 3-50w as stated not that I needed it that low . It's showing resistance as 2.1 on a 1.8 coil. But it does fire pretty much straight away. Buttons feel brilliant menu is simple bar lockout is on if its set to off and off if it's set to on.
Overall impression:
I can live with the little problems of the screen and rear case not sitting flush. The resistance being out I'll have to remember and just go off what my ohm meter shows. It's strong feeling device and as long as it keeps firing then I'm gonna be happy.
Let's see if this last past a month as my siegelli lasted just under a month from purchase and this is my replacement.
