IPV D2 announced.

Calm down b4 you pop a blood vessel.
Everything I said was detailed and correct, what you said was vague and someone skimming over posts will reqote you and say it's ok someone said 25R's are fine in this mod.

Some poor vaper is sure to get one of these and start playing with it trying out diff settings and wattages and run the battery down in the process then decide to give it a try at full blast.

Now if the device is able to limit output based on input capabilities then all this battery safety becomes moot. No harm done, informed some folks in the process.

Don't think you are supposed to run nickel and titanium outside of tc mode. I heard it can be dangerous. Something to do with it being like nonresistance wire

it's fine to use Ti wire... i've been using it on a mech with a kick2 for quite a while now. you can't use nickel because the resistance is so low

Ordered a 3 dollar carbon fiber wrap for the battery door from wake n vape, not sure how it'll fit going from the curved area on the sleeve to the flat strip down the back, guess we'll see...and wake n vape has a $3 first class USPS shipping option by the way.

When you take a shoot them in the foot approach to deliver your read it from a fact sheet numbers approach, yea people will react.
Good or bad the delivery method is rude.

Also - yes the Device monitors battery condition. I have yet to see or hear of a YiHi chip that not have that protection. A mod would be pretty much worthless if it could not avoid Exploding Batteries.

All YiHi Mods simply Stop firing and display a warning. In fact every regulated I own does this regardless of Manufacturer.

And your response was nice?

I didn't think words had personalities. I wrote down some numbers that are correct to my knowledge. If they help someone great, if not, you are free to move around the cabin.

If (and it looks to be the case) you got offended, then mea culpa, and you try better next time to be more precise with your advice so no one has to add anything.

This is for my own interest, how exactly does a device know the capabilities of its power supply without manual input and charge/discharge cycle? I seriously am curious.

 

[crxess]

Any sudden dip in power supplied triggers a protective response in the device. It does not require the battery to be drained to 3.2v(shutoff) or even 3.7v nominal. If the supply cannot keep up with demand, request is canceled by the protect circuitry.
How? Sorry, not an electrical engineer or firmware expert, but I do understand the basics after 45 years in automotive electronics.

You should be well aware electronics can measure micro voltage changes. when those changes are fed through a protective processor in milliseconds an action can be taken before any damaging load ever occurs.

This tech has been around in one form or another for over a decade protecting everything from amplifiers to now, Mods.
Even after all this time people still go into a Dealer complaining - My Amp keeps cutting off.

Sorry, off topic, but you can see what I'm trying to explain.

 

[Ec!g]

That makes sense, I guess there's just only so much real power from anything. There's a max and right after is failure so yeah that makes sense, although I know it's gotta be more complicated than that.

Consider me smarter then I was a minute ago because of what you said. Cheers!

 

[crxess]

I would have related it to bandwidth, but doubt that wouldn't make any sense to anyone else. Just coding allowing greater than x but no lower than y within a given time frame.

and yes, I agree Below Max available is Failure, gradual but failure none the less.

I'm beat. 2nd day from a Hernia surgery and still not so nice.

Later all.

Edit: Pain level to high to sleep yet, so ............
Anyway, thought this might help those wishing to take the time to read. Samsung is serious about Battery quality and safety. While many lesser companies Bloat numbers, Samsung as well as other top manufacturers Stress test and document true performance numbers.
Some of these are impressive if you understand the implications.

I'm already a little irked that my early preorder from 101 shipped out late. If you are going to spam my email with messages that my package is being sent..at least get it out when stated. Since i likely would already have one in hand had i not preordered, instead of a Monday arrival on my paid for priority package, it'll be pretty weak if i lose this apparent case lottery too.

Seriously, after this i really am swearing off preorders. I mean it this time too!

 

[AtmizrOpin]

25r's Will be fine to run in D2. I even plan to run the efest 3100 mah's in it and there rated at 20 amps continuous (doubt it more like 10). Will I crank it to 75 watts with the efest's in there, nope.

 

[bky16]

Just got my D2 today, the experience is quite different to other TC MODs.

1. it's showing real time resistance, this case, how can I tell if a screw supposedly tightening the coil loosened ?
2. I've no way to tell whether the desired temperature is reached ?
3. Other than the diminishing favor and vapor, there's no visual warning on screen showing I'm running out of juice ?
4. It seems to be a lot gentle than eVic VT, and I doesn't seem to be able to get warm vape. Thirty it was something I tried to avoid with eVic VT.

I used to vape at 360F to 420F, but it seems to be cool even when I set it to 460F with TI coil. Tried to use 40J but doesn't do the trick.

Edit: just come to know it'll show juice out. It doesn't occur to me though.

Are you saying it strains the battery more because it has to upregulate. I plan on running it at maybe .5 ohms and possibly 75 watts and ohms law calculator is saying that is 12 Amps and 6.1v. I'm not seeing an issue here. Plus like you both said. Aren't there built in safety features to prevent battery failure or explosions

 

[Scotticus93]

Don't know how I feel about this mod with everyone saying tc is wonky but I did buy it just to get a more powerful upgraded device. Another derailing note. What's a good rda to run at these high wattages? I'm thinking about buying a mutation x v4

Ohms law doesn't work straight out with regulated mods. As I wrote earlier in this thread, resistance doesn't factor into the amp draw, only the watt setting and battery charge level (lower charge = higher amp drain) do. Check the amp draw calculator on steam-engine.org and make sure that you choose "regulated" and "vw".

i highly recommend not getting the mxv4 - i had one and it leaked, a lot. On top of that the bottom airflow did little to improve flavor. The v3 however is a great buy. check it out here for a $10 authentic. Indulgence Mutation-X V3 RBA RDA - Kidney Puncher

see above, i forgot to tag you .... but i realized KP is out of stock

for those that ordered from 101 vape, i just copied the ups number, pasted it on usps tracking site, and instead of the august 12th delivery it says on ups, usps is showing this as out for delivery today. they seemed to ship ups mi, which ends up in usps hands to deliver.

 

[Dconnor]

I received mine yesterday. This is my first TC mod, so I am still learning on that side.

The mod has a nice solid feel, and did come with the silicon sleeve. It is very small and fits nicely in my hand. The 510 thread is silky smooth, and makes a good connection with the spring loaded pin.

Still playing around with the settings to "tune" in the vape. With TC, it seems to me that the available options for tweaking the vape are multiplied greatly.

Currently at 450f and 25j, and bringing out some really interesting notes to the flavor of my vape that I have never noticed using Kanthal and VW. Currently using the Ni200 OCC Kanger but will get some Ni wire to try the rba deck.
Sorry, cannot compare the quality of the TC since it is my first, but really like the mod for my out and about use.

ups has a service wher the package starts out with ups and gets delivered to your post office for the final delivery- i believe it is called"smartpost"?
i paid for priority shipping and mine was sent on the 5th but seems to be stuck in carlsbad,ca- no movement for a few days. probably some postal worker enjoying a new mod at my expense- sure hope they enjoy it! at least it is inexpensive and i will get another because the form factor is just what i have been looking for- just love that prices for mods have dropped considerably in the past year. when i started vaping you couldn't dream of getting a regulated mod with all the features they have today for under $50- truly this is the golden age of vaping and the product has advanced so much since the early days of cig-a-likes. and yet there is a never ending stream of complainers who don't realize how good it is now....i guess they will always be there.....
