    Vaporesso Polar firmware upgrade, how to?!

    Usually fine tuning operation, fixing bugs, adding extra features. With the Polar update it's minor stuff so far. One fix I think is an initial fire up power surge. Another is an option status that blinks that now doesn't blink and a couple other very minor things. If a mod has a v1.0 firmware...

    RTA you feel gives the best flavor

    Yup it is finicky. It doesn't leak every time, but enough that I prefer bottom filling it. I use 3mm ID coils so I'm already using more cotton than typical.

    Hallo: Tech Nerd & Advanced TC Vaper

    Danke. :-) Yeah depending on the atomizer the space can be kinda cramped to work in. For a beginner to make it easy, use a single wire wrapped on a 2mm rod or screwdriver and then pull it off and chop between the turns with an exacto knife on one side and then the other to pry and space open...

    Vaporesso Polar firmware upgrade, how to?!

    After trying out the Mac version, my conclusion is that this app is not compatible with the new Polar mod. I did see the mod display flash as you mentioned giving the boot loader name, version, and those big zeros. Yeah I'm afraid you're gonna have to hook it up to an icky Windows computer to...

    RTA you feel gives the best flavor

    And I love the compact design. it's very much in use with me along with the Troll. Two things that annoy me with the Boreas is that I have to fill it from the bottom or some juice leaks. No matter how fast I fill it. It never leaks otherwise though. The other annoyance is that vapor residue...

    RTA you feel gives the best flavor

    The two RTAs I have for best flavor are the Boreas V2 and Troll. I see some mention the Blitzen which I had interest in and should do well, but probably a tad less. From looking at RTA layouts and how the RTAs perform, it seems the characteristics that give best flavor are having airflow that...

    Hallo: Tech Nerd & Advanced TC Vaper

    One day I may try it. I do mix a fab classic Absinthe though BTW. Burning sugar cubes are cool. lol

    Vaporesso Polar firmware upgrade, how to?!

    I was gonna do it on my MacBook Pro but I was on Windows on the Mac doing some other firmware stuff and decided to do it there. When I get a chance today, I’ll run the Mac app and see what happens and let you know if I can get it to boot load and hopefully how to proceed.

    Hallo: Tech Nerd & Advanced TC Vaper

    Well part of my view of perfection and efficiency incorporates being above the bland. I do have a brash streak.

    Hallo: Tech Nerd & Advanced TC Vaper

    Thanks. Making juice is pretty advanced. I know how, but never got the stuff to do it. I’m already involved in helping some with tech issues here. lol Working in electronics I’m really good with the stuff. Glad to meet you.

    Vaporesso Polar firmware upgrade, how to?!

    One other thing. Try other USB ports. Sometimes it can get temporarily hosed while doing stuff like this. I used the USB cable that came with the mod. Other Vaporesso mods I’ve done the cable worked too and the process was basically the same.

    Vaporesso Polar firmware upgrade, how to?!

    Something is odd. My mod stayed blank. Nothing on the screen. Plug in without holding the fire button and see if it connects. Watch to see if the driver installs. If not then press fire after it’s plugged in to USB and see if that works. I just tried mine and it connects with no fire button...

    Vaporesso Polar

    Well the 350 or 0.00350 coefficient is correct. I had trouble with mine not being right at coefficient 92, but after playing with it and powering it off and on then 92 was working normally.You may have had a similar glitch that fixed itself. 350 to 365 shouldn’t be a big change, but the...

    Vaporesso Polar

    I came across your thread and I’ve had a Polar for a week now that I use in TC mode with a Troll RTA. I did the firmware update on the second day to v1.04 so I didn’t have a feel for the v1.02 F/W. One thing I noticed was that when I entered the SS 0.00092 coefficient it was too high and wanted...

    Vaporesso Polar firmware upgrade, how to?!

    I recently got a Polar and successfully updated the firmware from v1.02 to v1.04. I was gonna use my Mac, but when I decided to do it I had Windows running so I used that. I think the app is kinda sketchy and it took some attempts to get it to start updating. Here’s the process. 1 Remove the...
