The littlemaN is a variable voltage box mod. These VV box mods are designed for sub-ohm vapers who want more consistency and power than a standard mechanical mod is capable of delivering. My first impressions with the littlemaN are amazingly good. In fact, I haven’t put this thing down since I got the batteries charged up. The performance on this box is outstanding and it may be one of the best vaping experiences I’ve had yet. This thing is a beast, and it delivers the smoothest vapor. Flavor and clouds are huge. Honestly my RDA’s perform so well on this, they almost feel like new RDA’s! I had no idea what kind of performance they were capable of until now. I’ve been alternating between my Castle RDA and my IGO W6 with quad coils. This device is a game changer.

The design is based on a similar concept we’ve seen like the Duke or the HexOhm – but WAY more powerful. The littlemaN is rated to deliver up to 120 watts! This is a project box that comes assembled. The littlemaN requires 2 minimum 30 amp batteries such as the Sony VTC5 (included when you buy it).

Why is the littlemaN better than a mech mod?

Mechanical mods connect an RDA directly to the battery. There are is no circuit or regulation. As the battery dies, the power falls off so the performance is always on the decline as you use it. The littlemaN uses 2 batteries in conjunction with chip by General Electric that deliver up to 5 volts continuously throughout the life of the battery. The result is you always have a full hit and continuous performance. The advantage with the General Electric chip is that its capable of delivering up to 120 watts of power. This is one of the highest outputs you can buy in a box like this.

Another important benefit is safety. Higher wattage can mean higher risk with mech mods. The littlemaN is regulated and is much safer.

Features on the littlemaN

The version I have is described as the “alpha” version. In other words Project Sum Ohm are going to continue to improve it. The construction is pretty good considering this is a first run. The box is big and awkward – kind of like vaping on a guitar pedal. However the button has a great feel and the voltage dial is easy to set.

The outside of the unit features the firing button and the voltage dial. The back of the unit is held on by 4 magnets. There is visible epoxy on the magnets and the parts inside, but the build is solid. It just looks a little messy.

Inside the littlemaN

When you take off the magnetic back, the inside of the littlemaN reveals the battery holders, two switches and an LED screen. The top switch is a two way master on and off for the entire unit. Easy to use – just turn it off when you’re putting the littlemaN in your pocket to avoid accidental firing.

The second switch is a 3 way switch and will select what you see on the LED display. The center position turns the display off. Switch it to the left and you’ll get a readout of how many volts are being delivered as you fire (fire the switch to see the result). Switch it all the way to the right and you see the remaining battery power.

Now the LED is inside the unit so you’ll need to tweak with the back off to dial in the voltage you want. For me its easier to just go by feel as I turn the switch. Too much power I turn it down – not enough I dial it up. Its extremely easy to use. The dial can be adjusted from 3.3 to 5.7 volts of output power.

Performance

The littlemaN delivers an amazing vaping experience. I’ve got 2 builds going right now – the Castle is built at .3 ohms and my IGO W6 is built at about .2. Both are amazing on this unit. You get full power the entire life of the batteries. The vapor is warm and smooth – huge clouds! The flavor is top notch though this has more to do with the build and airflow of the RDA being used.

I simply can’t put this down – its that good. There is more than enough power on this unit and I like it best about half way up (4 volts or so).

Is the littlemaN for me?

It depends. If you’re a sub-ohm vapor this is a dream. This is for people who like to build their coils low and blow clouds. If you like big vapor with amazing warm flavor and consistent power – this is for you. Just get it.

If you’re not a sub-ohm builder you’re probably not going to get the performance out of this that makes it worth the cost. You’ll probably want to find a mod that does variable wattage like the DNA20 or DNA30 devices.
