Evic VT temp protection??

[Caterpiller]

I'd suggest watching P. Busardo's You Tube review of the Evic VT's before buying one.

He didn't seem to think much of their temperature control.

From a numbers junkie..... The evic temp control is s bit meh....... But, it does work and it works well. Adjust to taste instead of to the temp number on the screen. Being much simpler to do on the Evic then the other main tc contenders, this is really simple to do.
Sent with one hand, the other is busy vaping.

Hi

Picked up my new evic vt today, tried using the variable temp Ni function with the Ni 200 coil that comes in the ego one mega tank in the box, but when I tried to use the VT function, it kept giving me a temp protection message, and woudnt fire. I switched out the coil for the titanium one, and had the same problem with the VT Ti function. I locked the resistance but it didnt help at all. It works fine on the VW function, however the vapor is very hot. For this reason I mostly use this box mod with my atlantis tank, and that seems to work great.

Any help with these new VT features would be appreciated.

Thanks

I noticed with the ego one mega tank that the connections have to be just right. When I switch liquids or switch coils, I have to make sure all connections are clean. Make sure the coil is in just right. Not big on the tank, but when it's set just right it hits great in temp mode with the nickel coil. I actually ordered the subtank mini v2 with some prebuilt nickel coils. The mod is great, though.

Guys I have the Evic VT (RY) in VT Ni mode the recommended temp is 500 degrees. You are getting a temp warning because you are FAR TOO LOW. Safe Temp (F) zones for VT-Ni (Nickel) are from 475-525 degrees. For VT-Ti (Titanium) 425-475 degrees. While in Variable Temp. mode (VT) I would set your watts between 35w-45w and leave it be.

Great mod IF you use it correctly. Ps. I haven't noticed the eGo One Mega to be finicky in any way, shape or form.

It works spectac

Does it work fine in VW mode?

It works VERY well in ALL modes. Previously I used an Eleaf iStick 50w (with the Kanger Mini) and a IPV 4 (TC) with an Artic (75w)

 

[Mr. NotYourCup]

Make sure you have the Evic in Farenheit mode. If it is in Celsius just run the temp all the way up to the top and then it will switch to Farenheit mode. Try running it at 480 degrees Fahrenheit. Also, set the wattage up to 45 watts. Last thing to try is loosen the atty a tiny bit and see if it will fire. I tightened it a bit too much and I think it was shorting out that way.

480 is good. Finally someone that understands VT mods! Kudos.

I run mine from 420-500 and 35-45 watts. I have two of them, one that is perfect and one that has a few issues reading atomizers. Even the one with problems is still a great device. I just sometimes have to take the tank off and put it back on a few times when changing atomizers.

For the original post in here, are you sucking on it when you are getting the protection? It works by pulsing heat and if you aren't providing airflow to cool it then it has to cool itself and will lock until the coil is below your set temp. When you are taking a puff the airflow keeps it cool and the protection should pulse on and off as you puff.

I agree. Even my device with atomizer issues works perfect with the mega tank it came with.

If your temp is low and watts are high the temp protection will kick in because ur coil is getting hotter than your desired temperature like others im running 440 at 30 watts on .11 28g nickel build in my subtank mini nice warm vape awesome flavor and vapor

You need to take it back and return it, it is broken.

The evic has been tremendous in VT mode.
I use my two Lemo 2 tanks with Titanium wire coils.
I wasn't happy when I was using the vapor flask DNA40 in TC mode.
The evic changed that, now the Ti coils are blowing clouds in temp Ti 470°F
32W and 0.4Ω .
The evic VT mode and bamboo rayon wicks made the difference between average and great clouds.
It's a great TC mod.

I don't really know if it's not firing it at all. I know it always shows that message whenever the temp control kicks in, which is very often, but it shouldn't prevent it from firing at all. You're sure it's set to nickel? What do you have it set at? Temp, watts? @EW17

So it's normal for the "protection" to be on? Mine also ticks like the one was saying. But when I vape, it fires and I get vape, it just gives me lower watts. The guy I bought it from said to start at 470° and 35 watts. I've left it at that.

 

[AndriaD]

Actully a pack of cigs still only costs $2 to $3 USD a pack here depending on brand.

Just saying

Still... most sane people won't take 2-3 dollars a day and just set them on fire! But that's just what smokers do.

Yeah the temp control is basically always on to keep the vape at the temp you have it set to. You can go higher with the temp of you like a warmer vape. I keep mine anywhere between 450-520 degrees. Basically if you're set at say 40 watts and 460 degrees, you'll hit 460 degrees within a second and then the wattage drops to keep it at 460 degrees. Without the temp control on it the heat would go higher while staying at 40 watts.

I've read that a lot of people are having issues using the Subtank OCC coils in the VT. Apparently they aren't stable enough because of the way they're made. Do you have an RDA you could build coils on? I'm having no problem at all using my coils on the VT. The TC mods need a very stable coil connection such as you get when attaching coils with screws rather than grommets.

Thanks flr your help -

I built a kayfun v4 clone with gold spring, problems

Kanger subtank with rba, problems

Occ coils , problems

Magma build with single and dual coil, problems

My vendor exchanged it and unfkrtunately theyre making me try another one, which we all know has issues. I for ine am heavily affected by the minimum 30 watt firing as im a mouth to lung vaper i don't usually run anything at thirty watts. So if it fires my 1.2 build at thirty even for half a second it will fry my cktton

Once again joytech rekeased to market too soon and with a pile of issues.

I've learned two things, don't buy joytech and don't buy from the vendor i bought from...speaking of which at some point when its less related i will post a factual recounting of two scenarios and name the vendor. Everyone can make their own mind up

I fully exlect te rellacement to have issuesm and i filky exoect to have to pull ter to actualky return it.

Im finished buying things right after they're released.

my evic vt works great set at 480f at 40w using the smok tct ni200 coils at .15ohm havent had any issues besides a random ohm spike after sitting witch only happens like once aweek. I can live with that. I passed on the ego one mega right away and just bought the mod itself. as for the sound from the mod that is it working cant remember where I read that but it is normal and will allways be that way all of them. and only times ive ever notice the ohm change is if its im my pocket a long time and its hot out they go up and like this morning it just did it had it sitting on my table next to me with the window open for awhile and they dropped .03ohm as its only like 43f here right now. and ive heard many time the kenger occ ni 200 coils do not work well with the evic vt. and yes 230f at 30w is ganna get you no where fast gatta bump it up at least to 450.

What Dan said.

If we're talking Fahrenheit 230 is WELL below the vaporization temp of e-liquid, bump to 370ish @ 40watts and work up if necessary. Char point of cotton (likely inside your coils) is around 400-410ish when dry.

Id estimate the majority of people running TC mods are running temps in the 400-450 range, personally run around 440 on a DNA40.

I don't have personal experience with the eVic but to high of a wattage coupled with to low of a temperature may be difficult to regulate. On my SXminiM I'll start new coils out at 20W and 290F and slowly raise the temp. As the temp goes up the amount of power to get there within a decent time frame (0.5-1sec) needs to be bumped up as well. Use to much power and you may find the displayed temperature 'bouncing around'. Just enough power and it should ramp to your set temperature quickly and regulate within 5-10F fairly stable.

For some of us 330-390F produces plenty of vapor.

I use my Kayfuns on this all the time, and they work beautifully - it won't fry your cotton!
