When I build my SqR and throw it on my Flask, I start
vaping right away, I don't wait. My initial reading is usually my target resistance. If it changes its only by a point. But the time I'm done building everything is about the same temp anyway. I shoot for .13. I've had my current build in for almost a week and it's now at .14. It raised a point yesterday and I know it's because my coil is gunking up some. Nickel sure don't gunk up much tho.
When I do refine it's only by a point or two at most. As I use it throughout the week it will it will creep up ever so slightly. When I hit .15 I'll build a new coil.
It took me weeks, maybe months to get comfortable with refinement and to understand what it meant. How to read it, how to trouble shoot it. What it was telling me.
It's a tool so many struggle with and mostly because of the atty's and tools we use. It's a tool I certainly want to keep. If and when I get a new
device that allows me to lock in resistance, I'll personally keep this tool because it is trying to tell me something. Now there's so much information out there. Better tools to use. Information on what atty's work and which ones to stay away from. People who now have a lot of experience. I look to these people all the time still.
I'm not an expect but for the last several months I've learned to use refinement and not fight it, and now it's not fighting me.
What we need is our atty's to catch up with TP. I see others struggling with this new TP device too. Some of the same issues I had in the beginning.
I had to make it work for me. I didn't have a lock feature which I think is sort of a Band-aid anyway. We need more atty's designed around nickel. And I think we'll see them as more and more devices have temp protection/control.
I learned to overcome my issues and found what atty's and tools worked for me. I didn't really have a choice other than to give up. But I didn't want to. I was bound and determined to make this work.
Luckily I received a
dna 40 board that worked the way it was supposed to, with none of the qlitchy issues that tainted so many. And that helped me out tremendously as I was learning how to overcome my issues with nickel.
Me.....I hope it's a tool they decide to keep. Because now it's one I rely on. And I can't be the only one. I know there's got to be other early adopters that have been successful with it and would like to keep this feature. Maybe just one you can turn on and off.
Evolv was the first with TC, any thing else is a copy!For once in my life I would like to see these Chinese companies come up with some thing new on there own not just riding the coat tails of Evolv!! Evolv stands behind there product, no if's and's or buts!
