    First , the decimals are moved one space on all these TC units. On the faulty devices it doesn't matter where you put it, it will not regulate. Second Yes you can use 316l in 316 mode, you just up the temperature. That is not the point at all. That is just an example. What if i want a different...

    Stopped by a local vape shop to check out their supply of 213. The device I tested, their newly opend box for display, has the same problems. Doesn't look good.

    I hope so too. I'm glad at least some people have working mods. I'm going to try to Skype video call with them. Here is hoping the speak English. After that I'm just returning it to OriginVape. I have done enough for this mod over the past week plus. If they say anything positive I will report...

    Yes. The Presets are pretty close to what they should be but the TCR / TFR are not working. TCR being the worst. Power mode is within reasonable spec. and works fine. I can only speak for the couple we tested. They all have the screen issue and all the other problems.

    Ok We did some metered tests to day and the devices we have are not regulating temp in TCR or TFR properly no matter the decimal place. If you set the power in TCR mode low enough for your build it seems to be working but is not, it is working as if in power mode. Oscilloscope and Fluke meter...

    These things just don't work right. I can take the same build from my DNA-200 mods to my Joyteck's to my Yihi,s and they all work as expected. Move the same build off one of them to this mod and they do not work. Power mode yes but anything else is bad to fail.

    @30 watts you are probably only vaping in power mode and the device is not regulating on temp. 30watts in power mode will probably give you the same nice vape. Problem is it is not regulating. Set the Preheat (which is not really a preheat in temp mode) to @100 for .01 or something. And you will...

    I have tried 316, 316L,304 and more. The default values from Sigelei on the main menu seem to be just 316. I use 316L @ 92 @ 400 glows the coils. The default TFR settings they use are actually for 316L. Same results.

    TCR and TFR are both not working on mine. SS316 from the main menu was working on mine, same results as yours about 550F to get a decent vape. Seems that TCR just doesn't work on any of these!

    Yep. No issues with power mode. Its just every other mode that doesn't work for a lot of us.

    Thanks for the report George. Sad that we are going through this. I hope Sigelei gets this sorted out. Dosnt look good. Glowing coils under TC especially Nickle is not good.

    That's how mine started out. Everything seemed to be ok than it failed on me mid vape and blazed me. Hasn't been right since. I really hope for everyone else that they have good ones.

    I can only speak to the 3 I have tested so far and NONE of them have worked as advertised. Maybe I have just seen bad ones but I doubt it. I think you are correct. If you only ever use power mode you may never encounter a problem. Since I almost never vape in power mode any more (DNA-200 spoiled...

    With the screen off. Go in to the preheat menu. See if it does it every time when the screen is off. The default SS316 in the menu really shouldn't give vapor at 240F. Around 400F should give a cool to mild vape and not burn cotton. That menu item seems to work SOMETIMES on the bad ones. The...

    Well at least you can tell them your story and the units you have tested. Did you return your old one? You still have it because no manager was there for a return? I will post back if/when I hear from them. I think they are finding out that they had a bad run of devices and trying to figure out...

    Thanks George. I have tried everything too. Same results as yours.

    Yes it is :( Sadly I like this mod so much that if it didn't burn me and was just the screen issue I probably would have just kept it ! But I almost always only vape SS316L any more. I was really psyched for this mod. Thank you for the kind words as well.
