Innokin Coolfire4 TC18650

innokin just annouched their 18650 device with temperature control.

Phil Busardo just reviewed the Aethon chip in the Coolfire TC100 and with the exception of being unable to hit 100w, he was happy with the performance. His tests showed that the device was extremely accurate using TC with SS316L even though it does not have adjustable TCR or upgradable firmware.

Innokin releases new Temperature Control mod with replaceable 18650 battery - Innokin

cool, now that you have an 18650 as an option I might just get one!

no tcr adjustment is a deal breaker big time for me, and no fw upgrade. with so many wires out there i think it's a necessary feature. it is a good looking mod tho.....

this replaceable 18650 version is limited to 75 watts. a good thing. still going to need a high drain one. like the lg hb2 or hb6, sony vtc3-4. surprised innokin is trusting us with replacing batteries now, lol.

I broke down and ordered a black one today that comes with the tank. I will report back in a week or so once I have a chance to test it out. Hopefully it is as good of a mod as the popular YouTube reviewers claim it is. *fingers crossed

I have one and am quite happy with it. I have a Triton mini on top, am a MTL tootler, and it it just fine for me around 11W on a 1.8 coil. The lack of firmware upgrade will be an issue for some, but given my use the presence of a replaceable battery for a VW mod made it attractive. My only downside with it is the metal looks quite nice, but is a little slippery when holding. Far from a big issue but just to let you know.

I have only had it going for 10min, but so far, I am extremely excited about it. I screwed on my Snapdragon and set the ramp up to 25w and the temp to 415f. It allowed me to vape the wick completely dry with a dry hit. This is my first foray into TC mods, but so far, I am completely pleased by the results.

I saw review that showed the 18650 has a shallow 510 why oh why don't manufacturers check their devices with longer pinned tanks???? I really wanted one untill I saw the 510 situation!

I have it and out of 4 tanks I've used on it (Triton mini, Cerotank, and Kabuki clone) only my latest rta, a Serpent mini, had a barely visible line between the base and the 510. No problems at all with the connection itself. I guess it will depend on what you use.

Why not just shave the pin down by a few 1000ths. so it fits flush?

For me? It's not really worth it or important enough for me to worry about. The Coolfire isn't my main mod, and the tank is flush on everything else. As long as I have a good connection, I'm not concerned about it.Maybe other tanks have more of an issue.
