Sitting down, facing forward.
What's scary to me is that someone had the time, and put in the effort, to get a little too "exclusive" with words and abbreviations. I belong to some "uncensored" boards as well and generally they are just as civil, but they are boards with specialized interests, like video systems, weather and such, so they are populated by more "nerdy" people who don't usually get nasty with each other.

That's why Classy is so classy!

I seemed to have created a problem for myself. I received the 2nd Ijoy Captain Resin Starter Kit and like it.
It's been 2 days now that I have been using it exclusively. Even ordered some new coils for it.
My Xvostick cleared customs 3 days ago.

I wonder if iJoy fixed the TC on those Captains?

Here is a test to try, put any atty on it doesn't even have to be TC wire. Set the Captain to TC (doesn't matter which wire choice), 5W and 300F. Hit the fire button and hold it, the Captain should put the full 200W+ of power into that coil instead of throwing an error message.

The TCR M1/M2 values only go to 200, so no chance of using NiFe. If you pop the batteries out when in TC M1 or M2 mode the Captain will revert back to power mode with the custom M settings at default when you put the batteries back in.

Well it came with v1.2 firmware and I upgraded to v1.6. Yep TCR only goes to 200. The 5W/300F test, worked OK with 5 watt/300F with a TCR setting of 0.00138 and using SS430 coil. No error message, just dropped the wattage down from 5. But with non TC wire, same 5W/300F it gave a lot of power (this is the 234 watt one.

Looks to still be the same firmware without fixes. Now if you enter the wrong TCR value for the wire it should fire the full wattage like it does with non TC wire. I found it way too unreliable and burnt up too many builds because of that flaw. Even pointed it out this flaw very nicely on iJoys FB Group, which got me booted from there as a trouble maker. ;) Their non company admin was a total Fanboi and all about the hand checks/Clouds Bro Clouds.

With the TCR setting for SS430/430F it seemed pretty over powered. If the amps on the screen are correct I had to set it for 17 watts to get 35 watts. Power in non TC with normal is pretty close to set wattage. Yep pretty poor at TC.

To be honest, I would have never looked at one. But since you got one (or two), I just watched a video. That tank sure looks like a FreeMax Mesh Pro and nothing special going on with the mod. And now I am done looking. ;)

I certainly never would have bought it under normal circumstances. I like the tank except it's a bit colorful.
