I think it's all in the built in programming. Figure the "dry wick" protection is considered a "feature" of the YiHi chips. I figure it monitors the wattage needed to keep the coil at temp and if no external cooling is happening it assumes the wick is dry of juice and goes into that protection...

Yes, this "dry coil" has been talked about in the Bulli thread. Never had this with the Evic but remember with my D2 I had to back off on the power some. Joules with the D2 and suspect the same with the D5 instead of watts. Try it at 40 Joules. Problem was the D2 timed out quickly if coil...

:clap: Improving is an on going "project". Always looking for better/easier ways. However, keep in mind, one of the goals is to keep it open source without dependencies. Meaning the materials should be accessible from common suppliers. The closest item on the parts list for the project with...

I agree with KeroZen, the normal filament for 3D printing melts around 200-300 degrees. OTOH, if you can find a higher heat resistant flexible PLA filament type product, if it even exists, your talking a big convenience as could eliminate the need for O rings. I'd think 400-500 F is more in line...

I leave mine at 75W without problems. Draw speed depends on how much vapor you can handle. LOL That's the fun part.

Good to know for sure. Sounds like what I experienced with the last EVic mini I received. Ordered the 60W version intending to upgrade but came with 3.0 already. However, my attempt with using SS316 mode was way too hot. Never tried the TCR settings but now think I would have found what you...

Those numbers sound more correct. What did you do to get it going? TIA

I think I got it figured out. IIRC, I think others have reported lowering the TCR number. And I'm betting on the firmware. So the way I see it is you have two options. 1/Lower your TCR number to say 130 and see what the ideal feel right vaping temp is. The goal is around the 500F + mark...

Glad your getting it working, one way or another. Something is amiss though but I'm sure you'll get a grasp of the use of a mod. What ohms is it showing? Should be .5 + ohms. Programmed M1, TCR of 145 and also selected in M1 mode within operation setup menu. Ohms should be locked as well at the...

The firmware version 3.0 appears to have a bug for SS316 mode as it runs away too hot. Found this out when trying to get my ecig atomizer working on it. The "internal" setting for SS316 or preset TCR is not correct. This bug allowed users to use the Project in SS316 mode and this is NOT correct...

A good choice, the VTC4s do the job nicely. Your in for a good wait though. They come via a slow boat that site sees around Greenland. Honestly, upwards of a couple months is not un-usual. To tide you over, but a couple more bucks, you can pick up a couple from Amazon and have in a few days. I...

I do not believe those are high drain cells. Might get it to work by pulsing the fire button but hard on the cells when not designed for the load. You got me wondering about using in ss316 mode and getting lots of heat. Should not be. By coincidence, I received my second VTC mini, which I had...

I think your missing the programmable M1, M2, M2 settings which are programmed with the TCR number you enter. The TCR number is the coefficient used to determine the temperature pending the type metal being used for the element. Nothing to do with the temperature number. To program the M1 memory...

Yes, the ohms is correct. You need to familiarize yourself with the EVic some. Locking the ohms is in the menu you get by pressing the fire button 3 times consecutively. Navigate to the resistance field and activate the little lock icon. TCR should be around 145. You'll get it. If you want to...

Sounds like someone's excited. LOL. See Instruction Sheet. Thanks for checking in. Have fun!

Great news, Glad your liking it. If your battery is giving warnings during use it means it's having a hard time delivering. The one thing about using the single cell mod it you must use reasonable batteries. 30 amp drain is good like the Sony VCT4s. My older batteries start to give this display...

My only concern, and might not be significant, is the wall thickness is 1.5mm whereas the stuff I had was 1mm. I emailed him and asked if he has anything 14mm and thinner wall. We shall see.

Sorry @E0x, I was re-reading and realized I mis-understood your question here. The holes don't need to align and in fact the more mis-aligned the better. Mainly to help cool the outside and preheat the intake air. This is more important in using in cold weather. BTW, I have tested in weather...

Unfortunately, until my 14mm SS tube supplier restocks or I can find another SS tubing source, I'm out of commission. I got some 1/2" but found not wide enough to fit the Ego adapter. Want to stick with 14mm as I know it works well and makes stem size very interchangeable with stems already...

Conduction was what I actually had in mind. Interesting about the thicker towards the center for compensation of ohms. Was going to try doubling up the mesh for a couple mils out from the post. Too low in resistance though, won't work with the mesh and addy I have. Had even drilled out the...
