I got over 1600 puffs on the counter of mine on a full charge till it shut down. I took it off the charger this morning at 6 am and its 9:20 pm and i still have 80% left on the battery. Everything about this mod is solid except for the chip not being anywhere near accurate and not putting out the watts. If it was it would be one awesome mod for sure.

I can't not get anywhere near that with their t5... 300 puffs is pushing it with 3100 mah 18650 battery. My 26650 batteries are 4800 mah so it has to be much better battery life.

The chip must be an upgrade from the one they used in t5. The t5 has horrible battery life, random shut off's and and random resets to 7 watts. I don't see anybody posting issues like that with their newest model

From dead battery to usb charger is over night enough to bring it back to full charge?

I agree completely. Speaking of which, has anyone seen claims of the T6 not coming any where near it's stated wattage other than in this thread? I am beginning to feel like brian5470 and I are the only ones in the world who got absolute lemons.

So there may be hope for this one by version 3 then.

Yeah if they ever get the chip to do what it's supposed to do it will be one fine mod in my book. i actually think it may be software issues. I think they were to gun shy after the T5 to let this one really do what it is supposed to do. I would almost bet this is the same chip thats in the T5 just reprogrammed.

Wish it had a Yi Hi chip but i'm dreaming. A T5 chip just reprogrammed ? It would help if they figured out how to program the T5 chip correctly in the first place before attempting to reprogram the chip to use in their successor , just my opinion though.

I run VTC5's (2600mAh) bats in my T5... At 40-50 watts I get a good 400-500 puffs out of it... Now that's with the new 75watt firmware, but I can tell you for a short while I played around with both the new and the "new old" and both had pretty decent battery life. What I mean by "new old" was the "old" firmware that they released for those who wanted to downgrade back from the 75watt firmware... The ORIGINAL firmware my T5 had was 1.0... The "new" 75watt version is 1.5, and the "new old" version they released was 1.2. So I'm guessing they made some improvements to the battery life in the 1.2 version.

Technically speaking they never had a problem programming the T5 chip... I use mine with their new firmware with no issues at all. The "issue" they had was that the wiring in the T5 can only support a max of 10A. Which is stated in their specs... With the 75W firmware it doesn't software limit your amp draw... I run 75W all the time with no issues at all... Because I run higher resistance builds at high voltage... If I pop a 1 ohm build in there I can run 75W all day and night with no issues at all. The people that were "frying" their units had nothing to do with their software really... It had to do mostly with their lack of understanding of ohm's law... They were running .3, .4, .5, etc builds and immediately cranked it to 75W... WAY over the 10A limit the wiring could handle...

I'm not saying they're not at fault entirely... Yes they should have software limited it to not run that way... BUT... If I buy a fancy sports car and ignore the 7000RPM redline and pull up to a light, throw it in neutral and floor the gas and the engine blows up... Is it the car manufacturers fault for not having a rev limiter? Or is it my fault for doing something that I shouldn't have been doing in the first place? If I went back to the dealership and told them my engine blew and all I did was shove the gas to the floor and hold it while watching the tach shoot way above the redline are they going to offer to replace the car for free? Or tell me I'm an idiot and to get out off their property? :D

Well I think they are trying to make sure that doesn't happen again and I think that may be part or all of the problem with the T6. I know its behind the T8 change as thay have pretty much said so on their Facebook page.

"Cloupor @Irving Bolanos,all cloupor T8's output voltages are 1.5v-7.6v. And we increase the output current to 20amps to make T8 reach to 150W. Thanks."

They stated in another quote I posted earlier in the thread that they did this for safety. I really don't see how making it so you have to build lower ohms makes it safer?

I have a 1.2 ohm build on it right now. Setting it at 100W, it claims it is firing 9.3V (the device's max) which would be 72W. Testing it with a volt meter finds it's actually firing 7.5V for 47W (the highest wattage I've gotten!).

When I had a .6 ohm build on it, setting it at 100W caused it to fire at around 5V if I remember correctly. This was 41W.

My question is: if it's capable of firing 7.5V on a 1.2 ohm coil, why won't it fire 7.5V on a .6 ohm coil? Clearly it is capable of such voltages. If it had, I would have been around 94W and getting close to the 100W they advertise.

That's exactly why I think its just a programming issue. I think the chip is capable just the programming they gave it is doing stupid things.

Have you emailed Cloupor? I did last Thursday but I have yet to get a reply.

I have not emailed them. They do seem to reply on Facebook; perhaps that would be a better avenue? (Not that I use Facebook very often)
