Well dang here I thought I was going to let the cat out of the bag with this potential news. I have not heard anyone state the clones had Buck circuitry before, and when I seen this on the scope I thought holy cow no wonder no vendors / manufacturers have released this info. I don't feel confident enough that I can actually state this as fact of having Buck regulation. There may be other factors that contribute to the signal I'm seeing that someone else with more knowledge can explain away. And although you see similar measurements on your volt meters whereas my "crappy" meter shows me the peak voltage of the spike it does kind add a bit of credence to the possibility. It would be nice to see an EE scope one of these clones out. By the way what maker / model / vendor did you purchase your from? And do you know which version it is?

I have the the silver unit from 101 vape, ordered and received recently, I think its the most 'up to date version,' smaller 510, etc.

I'm not certain its true bucking, but yeah I posted about this a few weeks ago in the other thread about cana issues that people seemed to dislike. What I'm certain its not is just pure battery voltage because it clearly gets weaker as you decrease the wattage setting. But my display was flashing as I noticed and measured all of this. But I only tried this with a .6 and a .5 ohm coil so far. I couldn't get more than 3.5 volts to a .6 ohm build set to 30 watts so started building in the 1.4 and higher range (28 actual watts maximum for me when set to 30 watts) and haven't played around with it since.

Went back and read the issue thread and found your post. Guess I missed it previously. I suspect we have the same build board but I haven't tested anything under .75Ω. Seems my clones sweet spot is at 1Ω if I want higher wattage allowing me to get up to almost 35 watts. Probably why I like the .9Ω build I usually have in it at 16-22 watts depending on juice.

Wow guess I have to look at your graphs more carefully! So you're actually getting 35 watts when you're set to 30 on a 1.0 ohm coil? I need to try this

According to the math i'm getting about 34.6 watts with a 1Ω coil set for 30 watts on the clone. Mind you I never vape over 22.5 watts so I couldn't begin to say how it would vape :)

I've also consolidated all the scope traces into a single sheet so if your looking at this info you wont have to poke around between the different folders. Scope Traces is the name of the file.

Still looking for that electronic guru to explain what appears to be Buck down circuitry on the clone.. Not much activity in this thread may post it in another.

just got my black cloupor and 2 vtc5s in the mail today, I ordered from fluid vapes on sunday evening and received it today and that was with priority 2 day lol took them 3 days to print a label and ship im sure they were busy so not a big deal. I am loving this mod I cant believe the quality for a clone! definitely have the most recent updated unit, only 1 click from sleep to vape and no random ghost screen, and nice finish and my 510 is straight as an arrow. I think im in heaven lol now ive retired my mvp2 to backup status!

With 97 pages this looks like a pretty hot thread, so I thought I'd throw my question in here. I hope I'm not hijacking anything. Anywho, does anyone have the 30 watt box mod from Litecigusa.net? Are they selling the Cloupor box (and if they're not, does that mean it's not as good)? Ever since the recent Hana+Nautilus Mini videos (showing no dry hits over 15 watts) I've been intrigued. Thanks!

Edit: Nevermind, I found 'em on Kidney Puncher. Was just looking for a site that has the Cloupor in stock, Nautilus Mini, AND some Space Jam Astro so I can buy it all in one go.

So I just picked up a cloupor from Anarchy Vapor yesterday. I went in to get a few heads for my Aspire Nautilus tank and left the shop with the cloupor and a kayfun. All I have to say is wow. The owner helped me build my first coil and got me all set up, I'm currently running a 0.8 ohm coil with organic cotton. This is the most amazing vape I have ever had. They have them in stock (only a few) It is so nice to have a shop that is 5 min away from home, that is a true one stop shop. Hope everyone else is loving there's as well

What did you give for the Kayfun? Sounds like you got a great little vape setup going there...A Nautilus with BVC's and a Kayfun with a 0.8 build on Organic cotton...Way to go and enjoy- Dave

A B&M owner built your first kayfun to .8 ohms? they're optimized for 1+ lol. he must be extremely knowledgeable, especially considering you'd be able to take full advantage of the dna 30 at higher ohms

EDIT: not to mention the kayfun is designed to be run above 1 ohm LOL

Has anyone else had issues with their cloupor box changing settings on them? I will set mine to 13.5 watts and a few tokes later it will re-adjust itself up or down. Ill look again a few min later and it will be set to 13.3 for instance. Is this a sign that my chip wont last much longer? or is this normal?

I have the V3 and mine will lower the Watts when I have it set around 11-13 but it stays steady above 15 or so. I think it's pretty normal.

Hey guys. I received my cloupor dna 30 from elv8vape and I need to know what version it is. Screws are silver, paper warning inside battery compartment and stickers without logos. Is it v2 v3 or what?

Second I realized running on a 1 ohm origen, 30 watts is giving out only 4.5 volts. 23 watts is giving around 4.6 volts which is weird. Anything wrong with the chip? I used both an inline meter and a multimeter.
