I could not agree moreI've been telling myself that I definitely don't need another vape but watching this develop is making my VAS symptoms creep in...
Really cool to see this go from start to finish.

After using watts mode for a bit, and going back to TC (I was going to try your suggestion) the message was gone. Running fine in TC now.As a quick fix, try adjusting cold ohms to get a more accurate temp reading. I'm sure there are other fixes to this as well. It is possible to remove temp protection using using escribe software.
So suddenly, I’m getting a ‘Temp Protect” message when I fire the Elite button. It started after I changed out to a new battery. From what I can find, this message means that unit has reached temperature and the unit is adjusting ohms accordingly, but the air through it is cold in my throat. I tried increasing the temperature (used TC2) to 510, but same message. Same message on all TC modes.
Doesn’t appear if I change to a watts profile.
Any ideas on this?
Sound like the old throttling bug why theme are you using. You can turn off that warning in themes installer but if its the bug then need to try different theme.

Do you have the newest escribe and service pack?
Use the international version with elite.

Just to be clear @HerbieVonVapster, we are trying to get a more accurate reading in all TC modes, correct?
I've gotten so into building that I've come away from playing with the software. Once this batch is finalized, I need to take another hard look. I'm really looking forward to applying @HerbieVonVapster 's theme. So you dropped cold ohm's to .002?
There is another aspect to the Escribe software that I haven't heard anyone talk about, even in forums, manuals, etc. In any TC mode, in the Device Monitor, if you click on *temperature set* (left side underlined link), you get the option of setting a temp, or removing the protection (until another temp is selected). If you shut of temp protection , this basically allows the temp to just rise in TC mode. I'm not sure how this is any different than Watts mode, other than you can see the temp rise on the graph. It caps out at over 700 F with the current settings. That's actually not the ACTUAL temp, but a relative number based on the chip's ability to read our coil at these current settings.
So Herbie, what do you know about removing temp protection in temp control mode?
@HerbieVonVapster
You and I are finding the same things. I find a slightly clogged screen to be easier to work with. I am going to try a finer mesh as a roasting tube screen. The resistance here does keep things even. I find if I dry, grind, load, tamp right, it can do the same thing. We haven't been really talking a lot about the *FLOWER PUCK*, but it is still a vital component. Remember what ecig machines have going for them - oil is consistent. We have to deal with dry flower, which can vary from strain to strain, load to load, hit to hit. I have some extra unit screens that I'm going to mess with in the roasting tube.
I absolutely love WATT BOOST. In this mode I really don't care about exact temps (as long as board stays cool), just good hits, and lots of them. I bumped up punch to 10, set watts at about 28, and it's remarkably simple. I don't really have to change anything to spend the bowl, maybe bump up to 30 watts, or just give the 28 watts a boost or two.
As far as temp settings in watts mode, yes, I have set it, but I'm not sure if it does anything, as temp is not monitored in watts mode. I keep it at 450 (below combustion) anyway. You're right though, if you remove temp protection in TC mode, it basically becomes Watts Mode with the temp being monitored. With the settings I have, it will go quite high, but until we nail down the settings, I feel that it's a relative number.
I've not been doing well in the *accessory* department. I bought a couple of hemp bags, and they were so much smaller than anticipated, total bust. Next size the pricing jumps to where it would have to effect Elite pricing. Search continues for a good, reasonable priced, Elite case. I looked into 6 foot USB wires. I wound up ordering the wrong ones (micro plug wrong type). I'll figure it out and try again. Now I've got six, 6 foot gold, braided cords that I can use on my Samsung phone. Woo Hoo!
I will continue to work out the accessories, but continue to build and ship in the meantime. There is only so many hours in the day.
PS: I hope to get some pre-assembly pics taken of the batch. Lots of Walnut units with Walnut Cover Plates and Back Plates.
