ine has never been that cool! The coolest i have seen mine is 32 C.
There seems to be a large disparity regarding temperature in these units. Mine sleeps in the low 20s and idles in the low 30s. I still haven't had mine reach 40 degrees and I have been using it every day for a week.
Whatever chip version, setting or "batch" you have is the same as mine. Haven't seen the overheat warning yet though.
Mine did the over heat shut down with a 0.4 ohm build set at 100 w after thee or four long drags.
I gave myself a headache trying to get mine to reach 40 degrees. I give up.
Have you tested the actual voltage output on your's? Makes me wonder if I just got a bad one?
My test results were similar to yours. It seems to run at about 40 to 50 watts at "100 watts". The highest result was around 47W @ 1.2 ohms.
I just got this from someone who did tests on the T6:
I put an small digital voltagemeter on it but seems very irregular for a regulated device
dual coil 0.6 ohm
internal meter set @57w @5.9v - external meter shows 4.7v @36w
internal meter set @100w @7.7v - external meter shows 5.1v @43w
single coil 1.09 ohms
internal meter set @57w @7.9v - external meter 6.3v = @36w
internal meter set @100w @9.3v - external meter 7.0v = @79w
single coil 2.00 ohms
internal meter set @57w @9.3v - external meter 8.3v = @34w
internal meter set @100w @9.3v - external meter 8.3v = @34w
Conclusion, coil this device at 1.09 ohms :/

I am not convinced the Cana ever really goes to sleep , comes on constantly all day and night long even when you don't want it to .
One thing to bear in mind here... and honestly I have no idea if this is what's going on here or if it really is just that bad... BUT... Remember that your inline volt meter may not be an accurate test. If they are using PWM for the output then you are not going to get an accurate reading. The only way to measure would be either using a meter that has an RMS setting (or lacking that AC mode may give a close reading). Otherwise throwing it on a scope is the only way to be absolutely sure.
If I get a chance in the morning I'll throw my T5 on my scope and see if it's PWM... If it is, then there's no doubt the T6 and T8 are as well...
Well I got someone from Cloupor to answer a message on Facebook. They then asked me what was wrong with my T6. I told them and sent them a picture. They asked me where I bought it. and that was it! Not very helpful.
So any cloupor T6 has the issues above mentioned ? or just a defect batch ?
i really like T6 concept overall. but these "overrated spec" issues are make everything off
i've been contact cloupor for confirmation. but no respond anywhere. huh

Ok guys. I did throw my T5 on the scope this morning. I'm afraid I don't have good news. It's not PWM.
I'll attach pics of the screen.
I ran it at 12 watts, 30 watts, 40 watts, and 50 watts. I didn't bother to run it higher cause the topper I have in there is a dual coil at 1.56 ohm, so it can't push any more that 50 watts cause it maxes out the voltage at that resistance.
The scope shows it to be pretty much dead on. 4.8v, 7.2v, 8.8v, and 9.6v which is pushing 12.13w, 27.28w, 40.76w, and 48.5 watts respectively.
So the t5 looks to be pretty dead on, and with it not being PWM, I can't imagine the t6 or t8 are. So I'm not sure what's going on

Well now that T5 runs pretty accurate! See that makes me think this whole thing is bad programming. Thanks for doing that test for us!!
