In the eScribe software, "Cell 1" shows as being at 0.01 volts and "Cell 2" shows as being at 5.00 volts. In reality, both cells are near full charge, just under 4.20 volts each. Nothing changes if I put in another set of batteries. That's with the HCigar VT 167. I think the defective Therion 166 is exactly the same, but I've got it packed up ready to send back. The symptoms and behavior are definitely the same with both of the defective mods, which is kind of strange. "Check battery" on both, showing no power left in the battery icon, and won't fire.
I'm almost afraid to connect my working Therion 166 to eScribe, for fear that there's a bug in the software causing the problem. But, I THINK I've already had it connected to eScribe a couple days ago.
