Don't forget that it's relatively unbreakable, light weight, doesn't retain heat as bad and is extremely cost effective!

Have you ever considered a build deck for wotofo style mesh coils?
Also a wooden sleve would be very cool. With a 18mm built in to the wood.
Dont want much do i!

Almost there...
I recently saw a wooden body on one of these on IG.
Looked very much like a Splinter.
yes it can
That is great to know, thanks

Got my stempod SI today and I’m using a P80 with arctic fox firmware using wattage mode....if I go into settings what type of coil do I need to select? Or should I load the stock P80 firmware? Thanks

The stock kanthal coils that come with the Si only work in wattage mode so you don't need to pick a coil type. Just the normal wattage mode in Arctic Fox will work.
Quick Review: I have been using the Stempod Si for about a month now and it has been working great. The stock kanthal coils worked well in wattage mode right out of the box. I had no intention of using TC because it seemed complicated and wattage mode worked great.
After a week or so, I picked up some Clapton coils from ModPod and took a shot at TC to see if I could get it to work. I was able to get it working pretty easily using TCR on a Wismec Gen3 Dual, Eleaf Pico, and Wismec P80 using Arctic Fox. The only previous 510 or mod experience I had was from using a TAF Sai in wattage mode. I also made my own coils out of 26g Clapton wire which I have been using for a couple weeks now and they are working well. This was the first time I have ever made coils. Getting TC to work was a lot easier than it seems from just reading about it. It becomes much clearer once you have the vape in your hands and see how it works.
Overall, this vape is working great for me with no issues so far.
Just getting into .510 dry herb vapes and excited about what’s available. Pulled the trigger on splinter v2 and z cause they were on sale for $99 but then read that the Stempod takes s&b capsules which for me is a game changer. That in itself would have changed my mind if I’d known. Splinter hasn’t even come and I’m already about to order Stempod. Just on the fence about OG or SI. My questions are:
Does si really retain less heat than OG? I saw someone mention that in a post on here but hadn’t heard anyone else mention it but that would be a plus.
How is performance with s&b capsules? Does both OG and si allow for this?
How about Evo baskets? I use both with mighty and Evo so it only makes sense to get a 510 device that uses them too. It seems to me that s&b caps would sit closer to the heater and work better. Other thoughts?

try another battery
if it is still the case, try another mod for testing

This is the case with all 8 Samsung batteries I've used.
At 43 watts or so with a DNA75 Solare box mode, after about 1 bowl the amperage drops and then the wattage falls.
I will have to try another box mod

I get around 70 draws on my one battery mods (P80 and eleaf Pico)
Raskin666
Doom Walrus
Whoaaaa that's so much more! I wonder why that is. Any insight?

I use temperature control mode with about 10 second draws and have never had an issues with battery life. I get about double the amount of draws on a 2 battery mod (gen 3 dual) so trying a different mod may help narrow where the problem is.
Raskin666
Doom Walrus
Yeah that's nuts. I get about 8 big draws and then the amperage falls and the wattage falls.
I don't have another box Mod, I bought this one to use with the Stempod.
It works fine with my iHeat and anything else I've used with it.
@supershredderdan what could explain these issues?
I really like the StemPod SI, but it's a lot to change the battery after every single bowl.
Thanks for everyone's input.

How efficient is the mod with the iheat?
Raskin666
Doom Walrus
Pretty efficient. I used about 2 bowls a night for a week and wasn't running out of battery.

I am no electrical expert (not even a rocket scientist) but that clearly shows some kind of problem with the Stempod.
@Raskin666 i also eagerly await an answer from @supershredderdan

If it's not a mod/battery case, it's the base of the stempod. hmmm. try maybe to screw the coils better @Raskin666 ? you got his screwdriver right?
the base looks all ok?

I have the little screwdriver, I'll take a look!
It reads at between .20 and .22 ohms usually

for me, it looks like there's a problem with the base. air path is opened abit right?
