And it would be important to see the volts why?
I like to see volts, amps and watts. I don't understand why people put their personal preference in front other people's. If that's what someone wants to see, then their preference is more important than yours. End of story.

I didn't put my personal preference in front of anyone's there pal... I really don't give a rat's what he or you want on the screen.

I just wanted to know why it was important to see the volts.

hey everyone i wanna ask how to downgrade firmware on pico? because i can't see the volt in my pico now
Simply flash the original firmware with the update program. The original firmware, 1.0, is included in the update files.

While it's not the solution to seeing live volts when firing, if one just wants to view the volts that the battery has left, switch to BYPASS mode.

Personally, I keep upgrading the firmware, in hopes that the TCR value for SS are improved, as well as any "potential" bug fixes.

so now that there is a firmware bin for the pico, i can use the firmware editor? or at least try to.....

Yeah you can. NFirmwareEditor has already supported the Pico since the FW came out, and I've personally tried it out, though I haven't had the time to actually edit anything yet.

That said, there's no patches you can apply as of now, though you can pretty much change all the image files already.

Good find. I just tried this in my TC100 where I am concerned that the batteries are draining at the same rate. With both batteries in and with each battery in separately the reading was 3.66 volts.

Although I'd like to believe they were both exactly 3.66 I have some doubts. I even turned the mod off and on and still 3.66 for each.

With both batteries in shouldn't it be reading the sum of the volts?

Well, maybe they are the same. My Pico battery was reading 3.99. Put each battery from my TC100 in the Pico and they both read 3.65. Put the original battery back in and it was back to 3.99.

I guess I was just concerned about how "married" my batteries were in the TC100. I have a 4 bay charger (Nitecore I4) and the last time I charged the pair one took much longer than the other. About halfway through charging the pair I put a single battery in there too. Don't know if that messed up the speed on of the charge on one of the paired batteries.

It's a parallel mod so it reads the same as a single battery.

Because he wants to see it there "pal". That was my original point. Why question what he wants to see? It's a form of belittling. If he wants to see it, he wants to see it. He wanted to know how to revert back to the original firmware so he could see it...just don't think it required a question, second-guessing what he wants to do. I see this mentality all too much in here. It's why a lot of people avoid ECF altogether.

And he was given instructions on how to revert the firmware by another user.

Way too much all over a question... :lol:

Yup. Even posted a photo some pages back.
My sincere apologies. I will see if I can find it. I haven't gotten my Pico yet. The only small tanks I have in the nano version is a Billow, Billow V2, and a Bachelor. Was trying to get a heads up on which would work. Thank you.

    No need for apologies, these threads (109 pages!) are a bit overwhelming. I currently have a Kanger TTM clone mounted on mine. The Nano looked good but I did not like the low capacity of the tank.

    Not sure what you're asking.

    For no real reason... my Bachelor Nano has sat on the VTC and the Serpent Mini has remained on the Pico... for several weeks now.
    They're both 22mm diameter tanks (like 95% of my other toppers) so there's no issue fitting either onto the Pico. If you mean "work" with the 75w limit... that's on you, and your build.

    If you mean "aesthetically"... that's probably the only reason they are where they are.
    The Lil' Serpent is noticeably shorter, so I put it on the Pico. :p

    eta: LOL... just noticed you said "Bachelor" and not the Nano.
    I just checked with my full size bachelor... the top of the DT falls about the mid-height of the Pico's batt cap, so it's just as tall as the mod.

    Yeah... might look a tad funky. :)

    I meant the Bachelor Nano. Im way to picky to put a full size tank on this thing. I just wanted to make sure everything sat where it should. I have yet to see a Pico in person. I do know there are tanks that won't sit flush do to the afc ring catching the battery cap. But you answered my question and my mind is at ease. Thank you.
