    Cold Steel Mod: Bad vaping experience - can’t figure why

    You dug quite interesting info there - thanks! I really hope that my mod is the problem. I do check connections, clean 510, as well. i tightened the atty connector a while back to rule that out. i'll try that test with temperature. can i use Rayon wick? or regular wick? Ehpro unfortunately...

    Cold Steel Mod: Bad vaping experience - can’t figure why

    Regarding the TCR value - my mistake - my mod has a 3 digit TCR display value - so for me 0.00082 would be just 082, so i might have added a 0 by mistake when i wrote the post. VW-TC Resistance difference - you are right my mistake again. i did always wait for coil to cool when i switch to TC...

    Cold Steel Mod: Bad vaping experience - can’t figure why

    if that helps i can list the juices i use: Ripe Vapes VCT (more sweet) Diamond Cut Route 55 (less sweet, closer to natural tobaco) I have couple of juices that are very sweet, they are almost black in color to start with, but i usually don't vape them, i just keep them and occasionally vape...

    Cold Steel Mod: Bad vaping experience - can’t figure why

    Update - just to prove my point - TC started to work again (limping, but vapable for now): at the time of posting previous post i unscrewed the housing to take a picture of the coil, without taking atty off the mod, without switching it off, or changing modes. i haven't touched anything. after...

    Cold Steel Mod: Bad vaping experience - can’t figure why

    In all honesty its erratic - its like almost random chance - maybe about 60% in my favor for success: sometimes, when using new coil, it works (not perfectly, but accptable). usually the device starts to act up the next day. if im lucky - 2 days. sometimes - it acts up right from the start. i...

    Cold Steel Mod: Bad vaping experience - can’t figure why

    I can tell you this much - if I set up atty at room temp, and get say 0.35ohm, then vape a bit, unscrew the atty, screw it back again, the mod will show resistance of...say 0.45ohm because the coil is hot. If I leave it for couple of minutes, it will go back down to 0.35. But it won’t change...

    Cold Steel Mod: Bad vaping experience - can’t figure why

    rayon is awesome! I heard some people don’t like the taste, but I don’t feel any taste at all. In my experience Kendo organic cotton is the worst offender (not saying it’s bad, I actually liked the taste sometimes). Also I find it a lot easier to work with rayon

    Cold Steel Mod: Bad vaping experience - can’t figure why

    Thanks for all the replies! I tried VW mode. It works just fine! I don’t get the “stalls”! so what is the conclusion? - ehpro TC just ain’t up to task? Some info I did not mention - Wattage setting in TC mode is 75w, but really 40w is more than enough. I left it at 75w for no real reason, it...

    Cold Steel Mod: Bad vaping experience - can’t figure why

    Well, I made video already, but short version :) (even that took me like 15 takes) I think it’s better if you will hear and see what I’m talking about (mostly hear actualy) Anyway, Here’s the link The setup Mod - ehpro cold steel 100 (don’t buy it btw - build quality is bad after all...) Mode...

    Cold Steel Mod: Bad vaping experience - can’t figure why

    Hello and happy new year! I have a problem with vaping, and it’s getting frustrating. But I can’t figure out where is the problem: Is it my mod? Is it my wicking? Are my vaping preferences simply out of the ordinary? Other? can I post a video here showing exactly my problem, and also my built...

    Coil of different sizes - can they make or break the experience?

    Dear forum! here goes my strange experience: I’ve been coiling and wicking for years pretty much the same way, and it was kinda ok = I adapted to all the quirks I had. Recently I built a new coil, but instead of 4mm I decided to make 3.5mm coil. Same wraps number. Wicked it as I alway do -...

    TC vaping - small issues (mod not firing).

    regarding the temperature, it’s not that I have to lower the temperature to have a good vape, I just thought that vaping at lower temps should be better. I would prefer to just leave it on 290-300° that way it fires more consistently, but - isn’t 300° a lot?

    TC vaping - small issues (mod not firing).

    I do everything you mentioned, except tightening 510 pin. Did that just to be sure!

    TC vaping - small issues (mod not firing).

    Is Ti wire more predictable? I did order one, in hopes it will perform more consistently. you mentioned that something does not sound right - do you suspect something specific?

    TC vaping - small issues (mod not firing).

    small screen it is indeed. It’s tiny. anyway I set TCR to 0.00088. It vapes maybe a little better, but extremely close to SS mode. I still have to use higher temperatures sometimes (280-300°c), can go as low as 250° but not less, usually between 250-270°c.

    TC vaping - small issues (mod not firing).

    My TC settings: First, after vaping a bit the R did change to 0.93ohm (and stays that way) and it is different again in different modes (up to 1.02 in VW, and 1.04 on Bypass) Temp 270C Watt 75w my mod shows live R and live W! Highest R is 1.13ohm, Highest Watt is 55w. (Rise in R is consistent...

    TC vaping - small issues (mod not firing).

    No option to re read the resistance, just by changing modes, or unscrewing the atty. my coil after 10minutes reads 0.9ohm though in all modes (tc, vw, bypass, vv) So my guess would be that the readings of 0.99 where done when coil was still hot. but, I have a problem now - things start to...

    TC vaping - small issues (mod not firing).

    I will take notice to R readings at room temperature, because I haven’t in the past to be honest. I do have additional 3 atomizers, DL RTAs, i will try TC on them, see if i have R fluctuations. in Wattage mode, i don't see R fluctuating, but the readings are different, for example same coil...

    TC vaping - small issues (mod not firing).

    I don't pre fire coils anymore, as per suggested on this forum, instead i space the coils. (also in preparation for Ti wire i'm waiting to receive). But, i do heat the coil when i apply the juice to the wick. I will try to let the Attomizer sit a few minutes though before screwing. Its the...
