    eVic-VT mini?

    I hear ya. I did the same thing. I also ordered a Presa because it's supposed to have the same board as the VTC. Too bad the Cuboid isn't available in white. The white VTC's are sweet.

    That's nice to hear. It isn't quite as easy to make a reliable SS dual coil build for TC compared to a single coil. @Chibbit was having trouble getting his dual coil build to stay in TC. If you have advice for him beyond my suggestions (use spaced coils, test fire the coils in watt mode to...

    Sounds like you're using a dual coil atty. I definitely recommend going for a higher resistance. For some reason stainless steel in TC seems to work best if it's around .5 ohms. Also, try making spaced coils. Contact coils can be hit or miss. I've only had the VTC throw my SS builds into power...

    I haven't done a dual twisted 30g SS build but I have a single twisted 316L 30 gauge (or maybe it's 28 gauge I can't remember) SS coil in my tank and it's working great in TC with the 3.0 firmware. The coil came out to .55 ohms. It works well using the SS316 setting, but it's a little hot. The...

    What kind of coil and atty are you using? We'll need specifics to answer that question (single or dual coil, contact or spaced, RDA/premade coil head/RBA).

    eVic-VT mini?

    Pretty much everybody hates the tanks that come with the kit but it's largely due to the craptastic CL coils. I love the eGo One tanks that came with the first VTC mini kits but I would've tossed them in the trash if it wasn't for the rebuildable heads. I prefer these over Kanger Subtanks thanks...

    Have you tried updating the Presa 75 with the battery removed?

    I don't use dual coil SS builds, but I've also had stable (repeatable) results with higher ohm SS coils in TC mode. I try to keep my builds above .4 ohms. That said, I'm sure many people have had success using much lower ohm coils on the VTC Mini. Is your .16Ω build a contact or spaced coil? I...

    Joyetech Cuboid 150 watt

    Oh, this one looks like it may be inevitable. I never preorder a new device without seeing a few reviews so I'll still wait a bit. Edit to add: I'd love to get a tidy single 26650 mod with the Joyetech VTC Mini board. It needs to happen.

    I'll be glad to report back. Looks like it should work just fine going by the video. I'm really glad you decided to post it. I don't get to spend as much time as other people tracking down info. That's why I really appreciate helpful people who post useful info for the community. I would've...

    eVic-VT mini?

    Whoa!!! Oh hell yeah! Thanks for the outstanding post Zepp. I definitely hadn't seen that video. I'm so much happier that I ordered a Presa now. The layout and adjustable TCR features of the VTC are so much nicer than the Presa but the form factor makes it too tempting to pass up. Hopefully...

    I can't use the CL coils in these eGo tanks. The CLR coils are night and day better. Haven't tried the Tron tanks yet but I use a pair of eGo One Megas for my menthol and some fruit ejuices. I throw in a SS coil for TC vaping and twisted 28 gauge kanthal for watt mode. I find that twisted...

    Wismec 75w TC

    Bah. I ordered one anyway. I hope it eventually gets the adjustable TCR feature if it can't use the VTC firmware. I wanted another VTC Mini for SS TC but I already have two. These look like a great alternative. Just wish they came in white (ordered the black).

    Wismec 75w TC

    Great question. I'd also like to know if anyone has tried using the VTC firmware on the Presa. I have 2 VTC Minis that I absolutely love, and since this one uses the same chip I'm very tempted to get a Presa. I hope they come out with a firmware upgrade that has the same adjustable TCR settings...

    eVic-VT mini?

    Like the others have said, the 60 watt and 75 watt models are pretty much identical. Any VTC Mini can have 75 watts with a firmware update. The finish seems extremely durable. I have a black and a white one and have dropped them a few times without any noticeable harm. I did put some J-wraps on...

    Since Joyetech states that the upgrade lets the VTC use TC with up to 1.5 ohm coils I decided to throw a 1.2 ohm prebuilt coil in the Crown and give it a go. The coil reads as 1.33 ohms and works perfectly fine in TC. It took almost a full tank of juice to break in the head but it stays in TC...

    Stainless steel TC works just fine with any positive pin. I've done it with the silver pins and the gold pins. There's no difference except for airflow using the 1 ohm head pins. I use either the gold or the normal .5 ohm pins to get more airflow, but they all work exactly the same for temp...

    You can definitely use SS wire with most attys for TC, but only at exactly 1 ohm or lower. 1.05 ohm will be too high for temp control so I recommend shooting for just under 1 ohm if you don't like to sub ohm. The CLR heads are available in 1 ohm and .5 ohm. The .5 ohm heads use a different...
