Many Chinese retailers have their wares residing in the US under different ebay usernames usually listed in the same state.
What box mod are you using / recommending for on-demand convection 510 vapes?

I never really checked out ebay. I've been buying from them by their company name vapesourcing. If they have an item available in the US you can choose where you want it shipped from. It's only taken a few days for something to arrive. I don't know how different it is ordering from one of their Chinese locations.

AMAZING! thank you!
Max is only 15 but still better than 10. Even the 20 on my Tubo sometimes needs a double for me, so like 25 or 30 might be ideal... But that is maybe more true with temp control, with wattage you can just start a little higher and it will work little quicker, though I do like milking the low temps which can work similarly at low wattage so yeah the 15 helps here too.
I guess I won't be trying to control until I try a new software, not sure how well surmyevic or arctic fox do with that, I thought tubo software would make it easier and it didn't so my only hope for TC may be a DNA... Are those deals on the wismec still available? Though I really really shouldn't...
I really like the way the RX Gen3 Dual can lie on its side as a triangle, I'm not sure if the 3 battery shape of the RX dna250 can do that? Like keep the Splinter off the table as in my photo

This is my RX 2/3 in 3 battery mode. It looks like the same shape (or close) as the RX DNA 250...
This is what the bottom looks like.
I suppose to be sure we need to hear from an owner.

Ah thanks man, I think the DNA is actually a bit smaller though?

More idiot questions: I was able to attach the splinter to the cuboid- thanks to help here. I turned it on (5 clicks), turned the temp up a bit and pressed the fire button. No heat at all even after a minute or so. What am I missing?
2: The good news is that I found my missing evic. I finally get to try my splinter z. I thought it was the missing part of my double tubo it looks so much like it. The problem with the evic is that cruise control comes on but then turns off right away. It works fine with the fire button held.

Sur_myevic took about 4mins to flash on the gen3 dual and configure for my waitlist 19/19 Splinter 
I'm using ... TCR 150, 45W max power, and vaping at about 185 degrees C
Lock in a cold resistance reading first
Try my wattage and TCR settings, starting with a low temp and keep increasing the temp until you get vapour.
Then, if you need to, you can adjust the TCR (and temp accordingly) knowing that the coil temp will increase as you increase the TCR, as the TCR is the rate of change of temp with changing resistance.
To fine tune things further the coil temp will also increase as you increase the set resistance.

Thank you for this too! The stock looks pretty, but I guess not as functional... So for resistance, I've never done anything with that before, doesn't it read it and lock it automatically for you, while we adjust the other settings?
@little maggie what settings on the cuboid? I would just use power mode and start around 30 Watts to test for starters. Then make sure it is doing what you wanted to, like in the right mode etc
Looks like eightvape came through to help me I return that defective big cuboid... So if I can get some good temp control going on the RXG3D (
) with long press and even a cruise then I may be able to fight off the temptation of the DNA250! Though it still does look pretty good... Damnit I don't need this many lol

Ah, so note what value it is in stock first and then make sure that's what its locked to when in myevic? Thanks yet again!

The mod and atomizer both have some resistance too, which can be offset.

Are there step by step instructions somewhere for this software including a link to the software itself? I'm using FJ's software for my mini cuboid. Will it destroy anything if I use it with the gen3? I know where to find and how to use FJ software. Otherwise I'd like to use the sur_myevic with the gen 3 for my splinter z. The z is great and deserves a great mod.

Not sure what you mean about destroying anything but I'd leave tubomyevic on the Cuboid for the extra features FJs added. I haven't actually tried to be honest but I don't think Tubomyevic will load on the gen3 dual so I went straight for sur_myevic.
It's a shame Ryan won't ship outside of the US, so I could buy a Zed in the flash sales. Setting it up should be the same as for the Splinter but with a higher TCR I would expect with it being a bit bigger.

Just in case the info is helpful to anybody else, I've been using the Splinter Z with a Wismec RX300 mod. It's been working great with the FJ firmware but as another member mentioned, I'm finding that the mod has extremely unbalanced battery drain to the point where the battery in bay 3 was showing as ~0.3 volts lower than the rest after maybe 4 one bowl sessions between my girlfriend and I in one evening. The batteries were all fresh off the external charger. A quick Google search shows a number of people with the same issue.
Since the RX300 is a bust, I went ahead and bit the bullet and bought one of the $79.99 Wismec Dna250 mods off of ebay. Hopefully that works out a little better.

My gen 3 is acting real flakey running myevic. I’m either getting atomizer short, tc is engaged and I immediately get kicked off TC or TC is engaged and temp flies all over the place. I’ve tried this with both the splinter and stempod and the results are the same. I’ve had one cruise session running the splinter that was successful but any time after that had been a failure. Thoughts or tips anyone?

So far these box mods are complicated little items. I've reset the cuboid mini to power mode but it just doesn't heat well. And the evic would work fine except I have trouble keeping the battery door shut- same problem with my tubo.
I'm still waiting for my p80 from slowtech and hope that will be less finecky.

It could be a bad connection causing the issues
Try using something wooden or plastic to check how springy the centre pin is and make sure it's not sat at a funny angle or stuck in the mod. It should have a spring loaded feel to it, to make a good connection when you screw an atomizer on.
Then give all the connectors a good clean and test again
I find having the live resistance onscreen handy while I'm troubleshooting - press fire 3 times quickly - press down to cycle thro the parameter slots you can see onscreen - press up to cycle thro the different display options for each parameter slot.
You should see consistent resistance readings when you unscrew and screw the atomizers back on again.

On the screen, though it seems to be bay three that consistently drains quickly and it still tests low after being changed to a different bay. It does also show as lower than the others on the external charger.
I'd be curious to know the actual cause but I guess ultimately the mod is a bust either way. Whether it's reading one battery as draining quickly or actually draining it faster than the others, the constant imbalanced battery errors kill any point of having a 4 battery mod.

I vaguely recall from the ArticFox log that they fixed a display issue on some multi-cell mods at some point (there might even be some parameter to offset that) hence why I asked if it was only on display. But if the cell tests low externally then it's probably something else.
Are you sure it's not the cell itself? I imagine you don't have the necessary tools but measuring it's internal resistance and comparing it to the others in the batch could shed some light. A weak or damaged cell would definitely produce the behavior you witness.
Could you try replacing that particular cell with an equivalent one, at least temporarily? Also how are the cells arranged in the mod? In series? In such configuration the mod shouldn't be able to draw on any single cell more than the others (as it's not discharging through the balance taps, only through the single +/- terminals) So it could be more the cell than the mod that is the culprit.
