I vaped on 3.9V. But somehow I got burnt taste, so threw away the coil n using another one. Vaping on 3.6 now.
THE BATTERY LEVEL STILL SHOWS FULL.
I swear, I vaped a lot today...
Is this devcie faulty?


I still don't get it. WHen device arrived to me, i thought I needed to charge it. But no, it was already full... Company charged it? Is there any way to fix this error?

The Coolfire IV Plus has a 3000 mah battery. It should last 50% longer than the first Coolfire IV. 3.6 v is quite low. I assume you're still using the Aerotank which has a fairly high resistance coil. It's probably normal for it to show a good charge yet.

Yeah, you have a good memory!! I'm still using the Aerotank. My new tank hasn't arrived here yet... So I'm using the aerotank with 1.5ohms dual coils.
Hopefully ur right. Hopefully this isn't faulty

try lowering your voltage... my advice start low on volts and slowly work your way up until you find the sweet spot. as far as the battery, keep vaping it until it dies and see what it reads then. as long as you battery is not getting hot you should be ok. if it will not vape any more and it is still reading full charge then i would say yes it is a faulty battery. You will be surprised at how long a innokin battery will last.

3.7~3.9 is the sweet spot for 1.5ohms dual coils, at least for me.
I used to use MVP 2 for 2 years and i used these voltages.
Hmm,, I suppose each battery is different...

Aerotanks can't handle high voltage/wattage. A Nautilus mini with a 1.8 or 1.6 ohm coil can handle 12-13 watts which comes to ~4.5 volts. I use my Eleaf GS Tank with a 1.5 ohm dual coil at 5 volts/17watts.

When you get the Subtank, depending on the coil you use, you'll be going up even higher.

I would suggest you change your display from volts to watts. In watts mode, it will adjust the volts to fit the atomizer resistance.

Ok, the battery level isn't faulty. It finally showed no bars at the end.
But I got a question.

I use a 0.5ohms coil (the brand says it is), but the oms meter on coolfire actually shows 0.66 ohms. Same issue with my other coils (1.5ohms kanger dual coils actually showing 1.68~1.7ohms).

No problem there. :)

That's exactly the sort of readings I would expect to see.

Factory made coils are usually a bit off on resistance.

As to the bars, Innokin is a good company. Sometimes they are slow to keep up with current capability levels, but when they do put out a product, it is usually built better.

One thing I have noticed with low and mid-level brands is that the battery level indicator is like my car gas gauge. It ain't exact. Just get a feel for how long it lasts by your vaping. Keep in mind the resistance and power you use. I had two MVPs and used one while the other was charging.

Good mod.
