MVP Owners Group-into the next generation

[garyoa1]

Same thing happened to me, roto. Display showing odd things, no power, nuthin. So put it on the shelf and opened up the backup. Dunno why but a week or so later, picked it up and pushed the buttons. Everything seems normal. Weird.

I finally figured out what vendor I ordered my second MVP2 from. Unfortunately for me, they only have a 30 day warranty. That's just the way my luck runs. Stupid thing just started blinking red on me the other night for no reason at all, and I had just started to use it from charging it a day earlier. I had even turned it off hoping to preserve something from it.

So I promptly put it back on charge again. I even talked to it. I told it, "Go on, beast, blow up. See if I care. I'll be right here to put the fire out you little devil". I'm doing an ad lib here because my actual language was quite a bit more colorful.

It charged up shortly without problem, and so I told myself, "Self, vape on this thing right now until it croaks. Oddly enough, it lasted on me for a little over 24 hours. I just put it on charge again when it hit yellow. So, we shall see. Since I doubt if the vendor will do anything for me, I'll vape the little darling until it just can't go anymore.

It would appear that I got the MVP 20 watt just in time. That thing chugs like a champ. My first MVP2 is moving along just great. Go figure.

Did you notice the state when you took it off charge? I wonder if it did not get a charge due to bad connection with cable.

So, I don't have to feel so all alone, then, huh?

When I took it off charge the first time, it was fully charged. When I went to vape on it, I got some strange message on the sidebar, and then it started blinking red like it was a police car going to a crime scene. I have no clue what happened. After I charged it again, I have vaped on it most of the day today until I got yellow and so I put it back to charge.

Or a short in the Atomizer?

Never thought of that........Hmmmmmmmmmmm

Innokin warranty is 90 days I think. They work with authorized vendors but not resellers that buy them from vendors.

I bought 2 from a reseller. Just past the 30 day return one of mine wouldn't charge. Short story I had to send him a video of what it was doing, he sent it to the vendor, they sent him a replacement, I sent mine back to him, he sent me the new one.

 

[bobwho77]

haha, you’re right...


so it claims (3)-1.5ml tank sections, totaling 4.5ml
reviews I’ve watched show 1.8Ω BDC coils
22mm Φ and plenty TALLER than a Kayfun...

so makes me wonder,
could you take it a step farther and have :
•1.5Ω RY4
•2.0Ω strawberry
•.5Ω vanilla custard
all on top of your MVP 30
just ‘dial-up’ a vape mode attitude

For the truly indecisive...

I'm going to call them today to see what I can do.

great thought

mini comes stock with BVC
but OP said Nautilus so it COULD be BDC

BVC is far more productive than BDC

It came with two BVC (the display says 1.8 ohm, but sometimes it changes and reads 2, for some reason).

I used one for a week, but the juice I was using with that one (pineapple) started off nice, but after a couple of days, it tasted horrible and burnt, whatever wattage I had it at. Thinking the coil was faulty or needed replacing I ditched it and switched juice - no problems. However, I've used the last of that pineapple in my eGo backup, and it now tastes just as bad in that, too. Must have been the juice.

I'm going to order some replacement coils soon, so is it really that I can expect only a few days out of a 1.6 ohm coil? Should I stay with 1.8?

Depends - do you want warmer vape? If not I'd stick with 1.8 ohm.

The variance you see (going up to 2 ohm reading) I get too - usually when the coil is getting worn.

If that is an MVP 2.0 there hae been problems with the contact pin being pushed down into the unit. THere are fixes if this becomes a problem.

Sounds to me like it detected a short for one reason or another and went in to the stupid emergency lock out business that they sometimes do. When it does this it red lights and then the only way to get it to fire again is to put it on charge for a minute and do three clicks, then it will let the device fire again. We have seen this before and the problem seems to be rare and transient. I had a V2 doing it for a while (like every couple of days) and so I bought a 20w to replace it but the damned thing hasn't done that to me again in a few months.

I'll agree & add to what most has said...

there has been MANY references of this strange occurrence
sometimes it seems as tho the control board gets a rouge reading
it does not know for sure what to do with it, and simply shuts down…

coil short / hold fire button too long (time-out) / mistake 3 clk
or if YOU screwed to tight and made MVP center pin push in and short unit…

battery reset is in order by ON/OFF; plugging in & out and repeating

it has been reported successful by several device owners…

I’ve read this happening enuff and owner NEVER had another repeat issue (ever)

if you do have a ‘pushed-in’ center pin tho, repairs will be needed (your fault)

good luck

OK sounds like you got it under control
are we talking a full size or mini - Nautilus ?

ya know I have a juice that WON”T take any heat, it befuddled me for a long time
then once figured out, just very low power works...

ONCE burnt (like soup on stove) there’s no fixin’ it
(you’re not transfering USED juice are you ?)

a bad coil will leave the juice in tank tasting bad, yuk !

I think you should get same service life from 1.6 or 1.8Ω
1.6 will be a little HOTTER than 1.8 ( variable should keep it under control)
I think you would like BOTH (1.6/1.8) one of each until you find which you prefer (awful close)

this juice getting fouled, normal burnt situation is why I DON’T like
large capacity tanks – if I use a large capacity tank, I normally don’t fill
it more than 2-2.5ml to avoid “cooking” the juice (I prefer adding fresh)
some people get nuts about refilling (it’s not that big of a deal) IMO

 

[e-pipeman]

Got the Gs Air from FT today. Love the Nautilus Mini - but in some ways this is even better.

Yes, it looks better on an iStick.

Yes - imho - it vapes better - and it's an awful lot cheaper!

But then I like vaping Hangsen Apple constantly, so ymmv.

 

[e-pipeman]

Oh yes - it also works brilliantly on the mvp v2. I still have to hear a good argument to get me away from this (apart from eventual battery death)..
