[QUOTE="bombastinator, post: 23740888, member: 43994"] [B]I understand temp control is not particularly good on the m100, so I treat it as a watts only device. I learned that the “drop in quality” of geek vape is that their new models are actually not as good for temp as the original legend. They have the same milspec ratings, they just don't, or at one point didn’t, have the temp quality they used to. This is good enough for me, as I am interested merely in longevity. It’s an odd thing to not fix, and it may already BE fixed, but I have no data. It shouldn’t be much trouble to get the temp control back to previous standards, It isn’t particularly important to me as I keep my vape from running dry, so the liquid keeps the heat down through evaporation. I suspect temp control is only needed in niche situations. I view temp control as more of a safety feature, so the thing CAN’T fire if it is dry. I never let it GET dry, so it’s not a problem. If the thing was a squonker it might be an issue, but it’s not. It’s perhaps not the best thing to use a dripper on, but I don’t. I do use a capo squonker which also has no temp control. I know what a dry hit tastes like though. I don't think I'm in any real danger. It’s not like I'm going to suck on a dry mod all day. so I don’t worry about it. It comes down to what your standards are I think. With the m100 it’s not an issue though as it has an RTA on it which I leave there. If you feel that the capo squonker is NOT good enough I am curious as to why. I may have bad data. The biggest issue with drying out is with extreme sub ohm vaping. At or near the 0.1 ohm limit of mod capacity and/or really high voltages. Well above the 4.0v (fresh. 3.7 nominal) of a single battery It is possible for those to draw liquid faster than the cotton can deliver it so they may ‘temporarily dry out’ with heavy vaping. I dont do numbers that low, so again, it’s not an issue.[/B] [/QUOTE]
