FEATURE quickly reached and then maintained . The GX-180-HT also uses a more userfriendly touch screen which is preferred by many over the more traditional mode of operation by way of multiple key presses . While many touch screen chipsets use 2.4inch or larger TFT-LCD screens , the Asmodus chipset features a smaller OLED screen which has improved touch sensitivity and which easily outperforms other screens . Improved safety is also a key function of the GX-180-HT ’ s functionality and it does this by helping to ensure that both of the batteries are maintained at equal voltage after charging . When the voltages of two batteries are not equal , then the battery with the higher power will be overcharged , which can result in a fire or explosion under certain conditions . While many vapers will be familiar with this balance charging functionality with chipsets such as the DNA 200 , the downside is that the rate of charging occurs very slowly . AsMODus has spent a vast amount of time and resources into the development of the balance charging functionality of this chipset to provide the most effective

While many vapers will be familiar with this balance charging functionality with chipsets such as the DNA 200 , the downside is that the rate of charging occurs very slowly . AsMODus has spent a vast amount of time and resources into the development of the balance charging functionality of this chipset to provide the most effective
and secure battery charging longevity . As we stated at the beginning of this article , the vaping industry is changing at a really rapid pace and this fast rate of change is something which is likely to continue . This is why the chip comes with USB system upgradability so that the devices powered by the GX-180-HT can be kept up to date at all times . The two main ways of performing a systems upgrade are network or local upgrades . Network upgrades take place when client software has been installed by the customer on their computer and the computer is then connected to servers over the internet . The downside with network upgrades is that they can sometimes fail due to an incomplete transfer of the file online , or even anti-virus software interfering with the update , corrupting the data . To ensure this does not happen to asMODus devices , the GX-180-HT upgrades are carried out using local upgrades where the user downloads update packages from official websites and then installs the package themselves . The benefits of this approach is that no data errors can occur and vapers are able to update their devices at their own convenience . All asMODus devices are crafted with quality , reliability and high performance in mind so it is little wonder that so much thought goes into the internal components which are used . Founder Eddie Yin has said this has always been the case and always will be . He is proud that the very first asMODus device - a 26650 mechanical tube mod called the Fat Snow Wolf - was named the ‘ Best New Mod ’ when it made its first appearance at the Vape Summit Convention in Las Vegas , Nevada . Since then asMODus has constantly developed and improved its product line , always setting new standards for excellence along the way . Not only do all asMODus products look great on the outside but they are designed to ensure that the internal components are chosen to give the very best vaping experience for the customer . Investing so much time and energy in developing state-of-the-art proprietary chipsets is just one of the ways that ensures that asMODus products stand apart from the competition .
