ipv2 mini

[TkayIs300]

hey everyone! i got another question about my mod, it only does it every so often but when it does it it happens all the time, about every other time i press the button to vape my mod says "check battery" or "check batt" to be more specific, i was wondering if anyone new what could be causing this to go off, thanks in advance and hope everyone is having a great day vaping!!

bad battery? needs to be charged? I have the same mod and have never gotten this error.

Welcome Tkayls...

What topper do you have on your iPV Mini? Do you know the resistance of your coil? When you're not pressing the battery, do you have a small picture of the battery that is completely filled or completely empty?

I'm wondering if you might have a funky coil, or if your battery needs to be recharged.... I have the Mini and the Mini2. I've seen that when my battery needs recharged. I think I might have also seen that when my RTA coil wasn't seated tightly.

ok thanks for the feedback guys, ya i rotate my batteries out all the time, don't let them get below about half charge so i wouldn't think it would be that, I'm wondering if the coils could be causing it, it seems to only happen mostly when i have in the efests that i ordered but not the one i bought from the store which makes me think they could be reps, I'm not positive tho

btw i have a doge clone rda

The most likely cause would be a battery that is getting too old, with too much battery lag. Watch your battery bar when you press your fire button, it will show you how much battery lag you are getting. As your battery ages, internal resistance increases, making it harder to get the amperage you need for your set wattage. If your battery bar is close to full, but drops all the way down to the bottom when you fire it, your battery is on its way out
Sent with one hand, the other is busy vaping.

What's the rating on your efests, what is your doge build, and how many watts are you trying to fire? You might be attempting to overdrive your batteries. The efest's ratings are for PULSE dischage, not CONTINUOUS.

If you haven't, you might want to check out some blogs by Baditude. E-Cigarette Forum - Baditude - Blogs He talks a lot about battery ratings and safety. It's good reading before you start cranking, even on a regulated device....

maybe resistance is to low on your coils and battery isnt fit to handle it. I find with lower resistance coils higher amp bats are the best. i would maybe suggest 34amps for between .5 and 1ohm. I hope this is helpful

The IPV 2 with the SX chip has a battery monitor that watches the battery drain so if your battery is not a high enough amp rating to provide adequate power for what the device is set to the device will read the error check batt

Maybe but if you run strictly off the battery then it will give you the warning if the battery is not strong enough to provide the power required

thanks guys so much for all the feedback! ima check out those forums you recommended and also check to see if the stuff you guys mentioned could be the problem, so my build is .5 ohms, I'm running 50watts, and the voltage bounces around every puff which is another problem I'm having which i am about to write up a new forum on, but usually stay around 5.5volts, lemme no if there is any problems with that build/output, thanks

cool thanks for the feedback guys, my efests are 35amps s I'm surprised if that was the reasoning, it hasn't happened in a week or so and i haven't built below .6 since this build(which was .3) so it does seem like it had to do with the low resistance build

Hmmm I've never seen that error message on mine. Hope it's not in my future.
