I just rewicked my drop rda and when I try to fire my dna mod says temp protected so I waited for the coils to cool they only cooled when I took the batteries out but when I put the batteries back in the coils are getting hot even when I'm not firing I don't want my vape to blow...i vape ss fc at .15 watts on the drop using a paranormal dna 166

I put my rda on my smok device and it for the same thing so it might be the rda I just don't know why its doing this
Are you saying you have 2 regulated mods that are firing when you're not pushing the fire button? If so, then no...it's not your rda. You have 2 broken mods.
First, what do you mean when you say the coils are hot? Is the mod reading the temp? Or can you hear juice vaporizing and see vapor?
Also, did you mean to say 15 watts, or .15 ohms?

.15 ohms I don't see any vapor it's just the coils getting hot .hot enough that both mods won't fire when I try to vape.but the coils get hot even when I'm not firing
Stupid question, but are you sure your fused claptons are 100% stainless steel? Sometimes the wraps are kanthal...that would surely mess up tc.
Also, if your coils are heating up when you're not hitting the fire button, you have a serious issue with your mod. You can build a dead short in your atty and screw it on your mod. It won't do anything. Any mod that is heating coils when you're not firing is broken.

Ok the smok device does not do it anymore only tha dna device so I think it was the device that was messing up don't have a clue why..let me explain I cleaned my coils and rewicked them I'm using the drop vaping in tc mode at 150 watts only when I fire it won't vape it says temp protected but the coils keep on getting warm like gradually to a point it gets hot but not got enough to vaporize any e juice I don't know why its doing this fact being that I didn't tinker with the mod too much just cleaned my gunky coils and rewicked
The coils are from avs...sucks to think my dna mod is useless only lasted me like 6 months I'm gonna put some new coils see if it keeps on happening ill let you know
Sounds like a bad thing. Broken mods are things that can happen. Why not try regular round wire SS coils in the drop and see if it continues to screw up. I've never heard of a mod slowly heating up coils when not pressing the fire button, but auto firing is a thing.
The Drop is a solid atty that performs really well with simple coils. It's worth a try. Also, I can't see how this would cause the problen you've described, but make sure there's no stray pieces of wire anywhere on your deck. That's a fairly common problem with the drop.

Temp controlled or temp protected are messages mod display when the TC is at or above max set temp... and has stopped firing... message may flash on and of as the mod does its thing.... instant message usually mean coil material is not same as MODE setting.... might try reducing wattage.
does mod have TCR..... if so try a setting between 70 and 100.

Yep i agree with this, happened to me once : mod wouldn't fire and said temp protected, upon checking the deck there was a tiny piece of wire stranded in the corner of the positive block i believe, took some pointy tweezers and removed it, afterwards 0 issues.
Did you reset the Ω? If not and it changed that will cause bad temperature readings and going into temperature protection or burning.
Err...it shouldn't? I've used SS/Kanthal Claptons in TC and it works fine. The outer wrap wire of a Clapton hardly affects the current path at all. To understand why, think in terms not of resistance but of conductivity, the inverse (reciprocal) of resistance (S = 1/Ω). The outer wrap is real thin and suuuper long; as a consequence, it has a very very high resistance and, as such, a very very low conductivity. Let's do an example, using nice round numbers for simplicity:
Say you have a core wire that's .1 ohm, and an outer wrap that's ten ohms. The units of conductivity are sometimes colloquially referred to as "Mhos" (℧) but technically, they're called "Siemens" (S). The core wire, with .1Ω resistance, has a conductivity of 10 Siemens (1/.1) and the wrap wire at 10Ω has a conductivity of .1 S (1/10). Adding these together (yes, conductivity is cumulative in parallel) we see the whole wire has a total conductivity of 10.1 Siemens. Flip (invert) that one more time to get the ohms and see that we're at 1/10.1 = .099 which is very very close to the .100 of the naked core wire without a wrap.
Note: "very very close" is not exactly the same, but it is very, very close. The resistance of a cold Clapton is very very close to the resistance of a cold naked core wire. The resistance of a hot Clapton is also very very close to the resistance of a hot naked core wire. If TC is functional on the resistance changes of the naked wire, it should function on the resistance changes of the Clapton, also. You can get a (very very close) approximation just by using the preset for whatever your core is made of; if you want even more accuracy, you can get a custom TCR value from the Wire Wizard tool at steam-engine.org.

Just reset my mod and is working fine thanks a ton bro I was already sending lost vape messages about fixing my .... and looking for a new vape to buy.!!

Should've waited until after you ordered before asking questions
