Hi, new to the page and hoping to find some help on the I stick 60 w tc. I put a fresh (fully charged ) battery in along with a new ti. Coil. Let the juice soak in and fired away. The problem is it keeps throwing a low battery message at me . ( temp set at 550f.) So I lower the temp to 200, same message. It'sA a brand new battery and it works half the time and doesn't the other half.Am I doing something wrong or is this a glitch in the merch? Any feedback appreciated.

Also just tried to use ti coil at 30w and it fired just fine. No low battery reading .. not sure if this helps . Again kinda new to this. All help appreciated
It is a Samsung 18650 2600 mah 3.7 v. AtSE least that's what it said on the order....Markings / US18650vtc4
T 8A123TA18C
Really need to know the actual markings on the battery(s) your are using.
The 2600mah Samsungs I know of should not be used for vaping, they are the wrong chemistry and do not have a sufficient amp rate/CDR for powering your istick60 properly or safely.
If it is marked ICR 18650-26F or 26C stop using it. ( pinkish wrap)
The US18650VTC4 is a partial marking (top line should read SE US18650VTC4 C4) of a sony vtc4 2100mah battery ( green wrap) which is a good battery if it is authentic.
There are many fakes of sony batteries on the market being sold or included in 'kits'.

Well that could be my problem then . Any recommendations for a good battery for this model and how to spot if it's a fake or not?
You haven't said which battery you're using, pinkish wrap 2600mah samsung or green wrap sony.
First you said " Sausung 18650 2600 mah 3.7 v" which would have ICR 18650-26 and Samsung printed on the pinkish wrap, then you said US18650vtc4 T 8A123TA18C which would have SE US18650VTC4 C4 printed on the cell underneath an opaque green wrap.
There is a huge difference between them.
Depending on which battery you’re using the problems you describe could be from trying to over power a resistance range that exceeds the power devices amp limit in which case it automagically cut back the power, or, you might be using an insufficient battery which could lead to an unsafe condition.

It's green wrap. It came in a 2 pack.
Ok then it's Sony. Green wrap. Ordered them off ebay. Sorry for the mis information. SE US18650VTC4 printed on the wrap . And the second line of text is T 8A123T18C.
Wrong battery do not use.
Good battery, your issues probably have to do with your settings. If they are authentic.
Only buy from reputable vendors/dealers to avoid re wrapped/fake/counterfeit, possibly used / reclaimed batteries.

Just me, I wouldn't trust an ebay battery as far as I can throw an elephant.
There may be a few legit sellers on ebay, but batteries aren't a place to try to save money or have to guess if they are legit. Batteries are the most important part of vaping.

I've had same issues with a Pioneer4You iPV D2 75W VW TC APV.
The battery works fine in regular mode.
Then works like crap when in TC mode
Take it out of TC mode and see if it fires it up, ( with the Ti coil )
The Pioneer4You iPV D2 75W VW TC APV works, then dosent work.
My solution,,,,
Frig the Ti coils and the BS TC Units

It fired up just fine. Out of tc mode
Unless someone here knows the exact reason why these TC units act up as our units have, I will believe that the actual chip programing the TC conditions of Titanium and Nichol wire are sub-standard garbage.
Seems E-cig users, ( such as myself ) are never fully satisfied with what they have and are forever searching endless boundaries for the next new device, wire, battery , juice and whatever else can coincide with making vapor.
Personally, I rebuild my Kangertech OCC coil heads after every 5ml of my favorite, sweet, peanut butter e-liquid has went through them.
Knowing how to get the coil and wick just perfect and keeping them fresh has been the key to a great vaping satisfaction for me.
