Getting tired of playing "Watt Roulette" with the SID

[Gr8Scott]

Was pretty happy with the SID.

Until recently, of course. Particularly with a 3 ohm coil wrapped around Ekowool in a Chimbus.

What happens is that I am happily puffing along and "wham!" the little sucker is cycling watts. The switch has become hyper/schizo sensitive.

What a PITA. Might have to either go all mech with a kick or just buy the Tesla I have been lusting about since way back. Want the original though.

Anybody else notice this phenomenon?

I haven't experienced that yet with my SID. My issue has been with the fire button not always wanting to work right away. Iv'e had mine now for about three weeks and that has been the only issue. FWIW I have a stock 2.2 ohm coil in it and vape at 7.5 watts.

I think it's part of the same root problem, I've the same sort of thing as well. Too bad, the thing reminds me something you'd vape in space. Oh well a reason for another toy

Yep! I'm getting a SVD tomorrow, so if you're interested in those I can let you know how I like mine.

This happened to me it's time to get a replacement head. Mine started a month in I was .......

I haven't had any problems at all with mine. I'm a little nervous, since I have seen two posts of late about replacing the heads. The lady who sold it to me has had her SID for a while and has had no problems, so I'm hoping that I won't either. I love mine.


Living, loving, and laughing all the time!

Spoke too soon! I was peacefully puffing away and then BOOM I was suddenly vaping a 1.8 coil at 12.5 watts, instead of the 6.5 it was set to. Horrible experience. Ugh...

I have noticed it scroll to the menu while holding the button, but so far it has never done that. I had to send it back when it kept showing "short" for no reason, but now it works great. *knock on wood* =)
