Joyetech Evic VT 60 Watt

[madrabbit]

It won't ask if new coil unless it's more than 5% change in coil resistance. So, if replacing it with a coil that's of same resistance or very close, it won't ask.

ic okok tq for clearing it up

From D Jaquith on youtube channel :

I've been testing the eVic VT quit a bit myself and few inconsistencies:

1. Neither Titanium nor Nickel ( Ni200 ) seem to lock-in when the resistance is <0.10 ohm even when manually locking the coil (s);
2. Actual vs Readout temperature seems to be inaccurate especially for Titanium and to some degree when the coil (s) are <0.15 ohm;
3. Changing coils even with a >5% difference doesn't always trigger a 'New Coil' message;
4. Changing coil (s) when 'New Coil' isn't presented often will provide drastically inaccurate actual temperatures.

thats the same inconsistencies i found on my unit


best regards

Yes, I found that out from a review on YT (Smokenjoey, I think it was) and that was confirmed by joyetech when he asked.

So far, I've been loving using the device, and the only gripe I may have is the chromed top. It's hard to keep clean with all of the vapor exhaust build-up, especially around the toggle.

First impression was wow, awesome device. Chain vaped it during the Blackhawks game with the nickel head at 400 degrees at 36 watts. No problem at all. Kept up with my frantic vaping. Flavor was fantastic.

When it first arrived, made a coil for my RDA earlier with the only wire my local vape shop had left which was 30g (kinda too small for my liking). That had problems keeping up with the temperature but did good at 500+ degrees but that's just a little too hot for my liking. Will continue to play around with my builds but will wait till the 28g I ordered to arrive I think. That should be here Weds.

Thanks to doing some reading and research on this thread the learning curve was not that bad so far. Thanks!

Well just got the evic vt. temp control is awesome, i vape the nickel head at 60w 520 degrees. However I do feel like the wicking is very bad on those, once I drip 2 drops in the coil, the vapor is much more dense and flavorful. How do you guys feel about the Ti heads? are they better than the nickel? do they produce thicker/warmer vapor?

Love my eVics, all three of them. They've been nothing but perfect for over 2 years.

But I'll take the all American DNAxxx any day! All of my Evolv devices have worked flawlessly, too. Like so many other great American innovators, Evolv leads, and everyone else follows.

So I have 3 dna 40's and like them, I also like my invader mini but not as much as far as functionality, but more for indestructibility. How does the evic compare to the Evolv. Is it an equal?

I noticed something strange this morning that must influence this device... I left it charging overnight turned off completely, atty attached and ready to vape... turned it on this morning and the temp of the coil was reading 110C... ok I know for sure that my room temp was about 20 so where did it get the 113 from?? After a reset and atty on and off the device without usage it still was 113..... big influence in the way this works....

personally I feel the nickel coil head vape better than ti coil head.

I also notice that ti coil head heat up very fast. After 3 to 5 puff vaper getting thinner, I get because of the temp protection kick in fast and power reduce to very low, I have to pull very hard to get more vape. Am I rite or just me.

With that little juice feed, it would be dry hitting at that point so the power is reduced. Drawing harder draws more juice in to allow vapor.

 

[swatsqad]

actually that is correct. The juice feed is very badly engineered... I "made" the holes bigger by running a flat head inside, now it seems better. try it yourself, drip a few drops in, and enjoy the tenfold increase in flavor and vapor production.

 

[JeremyR]

The secret trick to make these clearo type tanks feed effortlessly is to unscrew the tank a little. I used to run a protank unscrewed 2-3 full turns while vaping, wicked vg great..

It prevents a vaccum lock and if you allow some air to draw into the tank through the threads it will flow juice into the chamber much easier.

Well, it may be too soon to tell. The eVic seems to be consistant, but pretty much everything I put on it requires a higher temp than my DNA to get the same results. But like I said, it's consistant, so no biggie I guess. (it's probably because it's not reading the resistance correctly...or at least not the same as the DNA or my USA made ohms checker)

For me, the eVic's 60watts makes it better than the 40 watts availible from the DNA. I'm really liking the reduced heat-up time with the eVic, and could actually use a little more power. Once they're up to temp I feel no difference in the vape. YMMV

Same report from one of my BM guys, however he thinks that the DNAs actually are reporting the temps higher than they should be. He couldn't get his vapor shark to hit hot enough, even at 600, but did a few 500 pulls on the evic and said it was way better and warmer.

 

[JeremyR]

I do have a good laser thermometer that's fairly accurate.. Once I get some nickle or ti I can take some readings.

I wish I could find a temp wire sample pack.. A little of both kinds in a few sizes.

It could be that the DNA temp is low, but from most of the test I remember seeing, they're pretty close. I guess we'll have to wait and see what the "big" reviewers say about the eVic.

The main thing is I can run my tanks dry and not have to worry about burnt hits with either device...I just have to remember the temp difference

 

[workman70]

If you look up the DNA 40 cotton burn vid, doesn't seem to scorch until 600*, which tells me it is reporting temp inaccurately. That should happen closer to 420*. Which would make sense that my BM guy says his hit to cool for him at max wattage and temp

 

[BNEAT]

600°? No one I've talked to has seen results like that with their DNA40. Mine toasted dry Rayon at around 430°-440°, and cotton burns at a lower temp than Rayon. (edit: or was it 450°-460°?)

I didn't try a burn test with my eVic yet, other than running my tanks "dry"

I haven't used any kanthal or Ni wire only Ti gr.1 and indeed to get the same vape as my Waidea flask I need to set a higher temp ( which Ti grade did they take as reference?).
Also when vaping the VT comes random with the "new coil or same" question, sometimes I can vape the hole day without the question and the the other day it keeps asking, I cannot related it to any change like atty or temp, It's not consistant, I'm doubting to send it back to the shop.
When the vape is good It's really good but when It's not I have to change the atty with another one before he regornizes the atty right and then It's ok for as long, well It's random so I don't know.
With a Ti coil I need at least 275c at 50w to get a respectable vape.
This week I get a temp sensor device so I can compare the coil temps with my Waidea flask.

One day last week mine asked me almost everytime I sat it down! Drove me nutts! I locked the resistance and it quit doing it. Every day since then I've had it unlocked and it's been fine. Not sure what was up with that, but I'm hoping the 510 connection was to blame, because it did it with two different toppers.

You shouldn't run it unlocked. It should always be locked in for consistency
