I joined this site today mostly due to the rx200 3.0 update and tcr settings, i have been experimenting with the crown in temp control and im currently running in tc mode (ni200 40w 480f on 0580 trs) and im curious how others have got on with the rx200 and the crown
I use the RX200 and crown with TC, but with the SS .25ohm dual coils. 60W 480-530F 0120-0130TCR.
My first post. Just wanted to say thanks to everybody here. I read the entire thread through before pulling the trigger on the RX200 and just got it today along with a Nitecore D4 charger and 4 LG 3000 mah batteries. (one is designated for a SX mini) Already used it to test fire a 24/34 8 wrap kanthal coil at 45 watts on a subtank and I must say its really neat to not see the batt symbol blank out (the SX don't like the setup) Mine came with software version 3.0 preinstalled so no worries there and I hope tp start exploring Titainum ans ss temp control over the next few weeks.
Thanks everybody again for all the information.

Welcome!
I have a bunch of mods and tanks and I use my RX200's and Subtank Minis a ton. Rarely together these days though, but they do work well together.
The RX200 really shines with a dripper (my RDAs are all less than $20 new) or low ohm tank builds at 60-80w IMO. I never use it over 100w, but slap a tank on it with a 0.2-0.3ohm coil at 60-80w and it kills IMO.
The RX200 is the best value mod available IMO. Great device!

First, I don't like mods with built in batteries. I prefer something I can swap batteries in when I want to.
Having said that.... Three hg2's won't actually give 33.3 Watt hours. I have mine set to 29 or 30 wh and the battery meter works as expected. Also, lipos come with far higher c-ratings. Going to 200w with hg2's will exceed the cdr of the batteries. To keep within the cdr at 200w one needs to use 1500 may LG hb2/4/6 - which is 16.6 wh, though probably closer to 14-15 wh (though the Sony vtc4 can handle 200w in a three-battery setup). So, three hg2's vs a lipo isn't really a fair comparison.
But, as I already said, I prefer mods with swapable batteries.

Call me a bit twisted (and I am, proud of it too
) But I have been sorely tempted to do that with some of my older RC batts...
I like swappable too, I really need to get a second set of 3 married batteries, but then my xcube will collect dust.
As far as current rating, by my numbers, hg2's should allow a safe power draw slightly over 170 Watts. More than enough for most people, but if you're trying to hit the golden 200, not the batteries of choice.
Now at that high of a draw, you're going to have even less capacity than the 29 or 30 you've been seeing, but still more than 25Rs would give. Probably around 22Wh. Which for the size and weight is still pretty competitive... especially since the LiPo packs don't live up to stated capacity in high drain situations either.
So yes, the type of performance you see will be very dependant on the type of vaper you are at this point.
Mooch had a good comparison between a single HG2, single 25R, and a 900 mAh LiPo. The 0.9Ah pack beat both 18650s, but not by a lot. It's still hard to compete with three 18650s at this point in the game for capacity.

Ok, So my impressions on my first 24 hours or so with RX. Finally charged the batts fully overnight for the first time and they have lasted me all day and still have most of their charge left. Been running 3 subtanks with kanthal resistances between .51 and .81 and a Aria phenotype L dripper at .41 and running between 20 and 40 watts. So far me like. Going to be interesting to take it to work tomorrow and see how it works in the "real" world. Yes the SX is more refined (and for the price it'd better be) but you just can't beat a bigger gas tank for endurance.

I use mine at work. I always have a back up mod (My second RX with 25rs in it) but so far I get 2 days out if it before my batt voltage drops to 3.6 average. so Im only charging every two days. Im normally running my Ohmega 30mm at .3ohms at 90 watts, or my 2mm Ohmega alpha in TC with a .4SS coil at 500f 60watts.
use like ni40 or ni60 then you can use TC just not in ni80
i was using 125 for my TCR of ss (vaping at 380f), 112 seems to work more accurately, thanks vaping at 420f
I'm using authentic imrens 3000mha 40A, cdc 20A, i don't think my wires are made to handle 200watts and i don't use kanthal except for my cloutank M4 coils when i rebuild them. almost all my mods are TC so why bother with kanthal
Careful with those wildly overspec'ed imren
Imren 40A 3000mAh 18650 Bench Retest Results...only a 17A battery, damaged at 30A
Yeah, I certainly wouldn't push those cells past 150 watts max, that doesn't even leave much headroom. And "authentic Imrens" is oxymoronic, they are authentically re-wrapped by Imren as they do not actually manufacture the batteries (to the best of my knowledge).
