It's the madness of temperature control and obviously the giant Pioneer4you could not miss the phenomenon. Our partner " Cigamania.com Recently offered to test the new box at Pioneer4you: IPv D2. So this new model is it up to expectations? What is the temperature control of Pionner4you worth? As always we offer you a complete test in the form of an article as well as a video review. So let's go and explore this famous box which is causing a stir.
IPV D2: PRESENTATION AND PACKAGING
The box « Ipv D2 »Par Pioneer4you is presented in a fairly classic rigid cardboard box. Inside, the box is installed in a foam box accompanied by a small manual in English, a certificate of authenticity and a specific charger (Dc 5v). With regard to the technical characteristics, IPv D2 does 76 mm height for 39 mm width, its diameter is 22 mm and she weighs about 125 grams (rather heavy for its size). The box contains the famous chipset YIHI SX130H and proposes a variable power of 7 to 75 watts. Finally, it is important to note
IPV D2: A CLASSIC DESIGN, PURIFIED BUT EFFECTIVE!
IPv D2 is a small box entirely in stainless steel which is available in two finishes (black or silver). Rather sober and classic, some compare it with the famous “Stratum” even if we must admit we will not be in the same finish. Despite this, Pioneer4you did a good job with a box that turns out to be solid and pleasant to handle (thanks to the rounded edges) even if it turns out to be a bit heavy. The three buttons on the box barely stand out from the front and turn out to be of good quality with a good feeling when pressing them. The Oled screen on IPv D2 is installed in a recess in order to be well protected in the event of impact. With the two finishes offered by Pioneer4you we will therefore have the choice between a very discreet black version and a rather eye-catching shiny silver version.
IPD2: AN INTERNAL FINISH IM FIG MI RAISIN
We know it and it has already been seen on previous models, Pionner4you is not a specialist in the internal finish of their boxes. Sure IPv D2 (on the "test" model at least) we once again notice some flaws. First of all, when you open it, you quickly notice that there is electronic parts that have not been hidden or covered (which is not very neat). More important even if this detail seems to have been corrected, the famous sliding hood supposed to be ingenious falls when the box is held by it. This would come from a lack of tightening present on the test versions which is not found on the models sold (all the better!).
IPV D2: A CHIPSET YIHI SX130H THAT BRINGS COMFORT AND POWER!
The big highlight of this box Ipv D2 is obviously in the choice of its chipset: The " YIHI SX130H Which will bring a lot of comfort of vape and a sufficient power to all your atomizers. For that, LPI D2 proposes two modes of operation:
- A "Variable Power" mode
The variable power mode will allow you to use all your kanthal-based resistors on values of 7 to 75 watts. The box will accept resistances between 0.2 to 3 ohms and will therefore be compatible with any type of atomizer.
- A "temperature control" mode
obviously Pionner4you could not miss the phenomenon and LPI D2 also offers this operating mode. However, the brand has stood out from the competition by choosing a new value for the use of temperature control: Joules. If at first glance, this can give us the impression of going into the unknown, we will quickly realize when using that there is no big change (For information 10 watts = 10 joules per second). The range of use is from 10 to 50 Joules and the temperature can be adjusted between 100 ° C and 300 ° C in increments of 1°C. You will only use this mode for resistors Nickel (Ni-200) or the family Titanium (Ti).
IPV D2: OLED SCREEN AND SIMPLE AND EFFICIENT MENU
The IPV D2 has an Oled screen rather legible and bright. On top we will find the power (in Watts or Joules), the resistance value, The maximum temperature, the remaining battery indicator. For navigation, the box contains a menu accessible by pressing 5 times on the fire button". It turns out to be quite simple and intuitive, you can change the operating mode there. Fashion joule " or " Power mode »(Variable Power), the maximum temperature, the temperature unit (° C or ° F) and also select the type of resistance used (Coil Ni200 or Coil Ti). The IPV D2 is turned on by pressing the “fire” button 5 and is turned off by using the “ Power off " in the menu. Finally you will be able to lock your box ("Fire" button and "+" button at the same time) as well as to check the exact value of your resistance ("+" Button and "-" button at the same time).
LPI D2: SOME OTHER IMPORTANT POINTS
First of all, it is important to specify that the IPv D2 does not have an internal battery, it will be necessary acquire an 18650 battery to install yourself. The box has 4 degassing holes located below and as we know it is a very important thing to always check. Something a little less pleasant will be the choice by Pioneer4you not to use a micro-usb charger as we are used to seeing, if you have several boxes, know that you must have a charger specific to the IPV D2. Finally, the new model from Pioneer4you has a spring loaded 510 connector that will adapt easily to all your atomizers, the conductivity of the box is also particularly good!
PRECAUTIONARY TIPS FOR USING IPV D2
This box being basic adapted to manage the sub-ohm, you do not have to worry a priori from a safety point of view. The IPV D2 has been configured to accept resistances up to 0,1 ohm, so we have the right to trust it. Its power of 75 watts will also be good enough to vault safely. Despite this, we draw your attention to the fact that when choosing your batteries you have to be careful. If you do not have the necessary knowledge, ask before you use it.
POSITIVE POINTS OF LPI D2 BY PIONEER4YOU
- Very good value for money
- Mini size but good autonomy (18650 battery)

- A top YIHI SX130H chipset for all uses!
THE NEGATIVE POINTS OF LPI D2 BY PIONEER4YOU
- Interior finish not yet at the top
- Defective sliding cover (A correction seems to have been made)
- DC 5v recharging socket (and not micro-usb)
- Instructions only in English
THE VAPOTEURS.NET EDITOR'S OPINION
Despite some minor flaws, LPI D2 remains a real good surprise to which we can not remain insensitive! The grip, the quality of vape, ease of use, ergonomics and overall finish of the box forces us to give it our maximum score. If you are looking for a versatile, powerful and reasonably priced box you will inevitably find yourself with LPI D2.
