New Presa 100W TC

[Shel]

I just received my Pressa 100 TC, and so far, I'm really enjoying it! It's replacing my reuleaux RX200, which, while I like it, is simply too heavy to carry around all day in my shirt pocket. The Pressa 100 seems quite a bit lighter.

One question... can someone tell me how you reset the puff counter, or if it can be reset?

I've read through the manual, and can't find anywhere where it explains how to reset the puff counter to zero.

Not sure I'll use it much, but want to see if it's a good method to keep track of how much longer the battery will last.

By the way, the door on my Pressa 100W has zero wobble, the entire device is tight as a drum. Guess they have qc issues, but if you're considering getting one, be aware that there is a change yours won't have any wobble from the battery door.

Much like all the other JT chips while in the menu, one button will advance to the next item, the other button will cycle through the item choices and if the puff counter is selected (and flashing) if the fire button is pushed and held the counter will reset to 0000.

While I picked mine up at a local B&M (much higher pricing for sure!) its hard to imagine that the TC100 can be picked up online so inexpensively. Wow. Just wow.

Wow! That reset tip is a blessing I was unaware of.
I want to use the timer to check battery duration and didn't know how to do that.
Don't know if it's in the Manual, because I'm a Man, and you know...

WoW !! Thank You very much @dhaiken. I've never bought from them B 4 so I just ordered (1) for now, if that works out OK then I will get (2) more, vaportekusa.com. $30 is a Great price for the Presa 100 TC.

Enjoy! Hope it works for you.

Thanks! I knew there had to be a way to reset it, but unless I'm blind, it isn't in the manual.

Mine came in today and I really like it. When the battery started to run down, I plugged in the USB to charge and......nothing. Is mine defective or these cannot be charged via USB? I tried a few different cables and nothing happened. The same cables work on other mods.

Might be a defective unit. While you can charge with either a charge cable OR a data cable, you have to have a data cable to update these mod's. Did you use the cable that came with you're Presa (that one is a data/charge cable) ?? Oh, and YES, you can charge the Presa via USB port, to answer your question.

I used both the cable that came with it and others I have. Does the battery indicator flash or indicate charging? I even tried to charge with an 18650 and the adaptor and it didn't look like anything was happening.

Just a minute, let me check.

If you have you're Presa ON, then the battery bar will blink to show it is charging, if you have it OFF and charge then all you will see is the battery bar blinking and no other display.

 

[52anddone]

If you have an external charger then I would use that instead, as the Presa will NOT charge you're battery Fully (only to about 4.10v approx.), where as an external charger will charge up to 4.20v-4.25v. Anyway, the battery bar (or symbol) will blink, like on mine I have a battery that is half charged in it and when I plug it into a USB port then the battery bar shows a half charge and the uncharged part blinks.

I got nothing. I'll call the place I ordered from tomorrow. Thanks for your help

You bet. I hope you get it fixed or replaced. Yours is the first I have heard of that happening to. Good Old Chinese Quality Control.

It really wouldn't be an issue except for my job has me traveling all the time. I have an external charger but a USB cable and my little 4 cord charger block is a lot less to pack

Traveling. When I travel I use the USB ports in my Van to charge or top off my mod's, so I know what you mean, it IS a lot less to pack and is more convenient also. I do hope that they just replace you're Presa 100 TC for you, and don't give you any grief about it. Good Luck Partner, nice talking to you.

VapersTek has them for $30.00. Fast shipping too.

I just got my Silver Presa 100 TC from Vaportekusa.com today. $30 is a Crazy price for such a Sweet 26650 Mod. Thank You again dhaiken for putting that post up, a real money saver.

BTW George, my Presa 100 weighs 168 grams and my Cuboid weighs 208 grams, No batteries installed. I just got my own little scale from Amazon so I can weigh my mod's and RTA's, as not all the spec's are listed for all the mod's all the time. Anyway, 40 grams difference between the two mod's.

I liked it enough for the money I got 2. Glad you're enjoying it.
The only thing I find lacking is a Boost function.
And I really only need that for Dual Fused Clapton Coils.
It even works fine for those, but has about a 1 second ramp up time on the 1st draw.

I think that a Boost function on the Presa 100 would make it Beyond a Great Mod at $30. I see where you would want Boost running Dual Fused Clapton coils. I'm just running a single twisted Kanthal coil in Power Mode, so no real need for me to use it. I keep saying that "One of these days" I'll try Temp mode, but I'm just so content with what I am running I figure, Why Bother, you know.

Edit: on second thought, you are talking about "Boost" as in Temp Boost (quick ramp up), and not "Buck and Boost" type "Boost" ??

Edit #2: I just found this, if you're interested in New 26650 batteries. Wholesale Li-ion Batteries for Vaping, Flashlights | Liion Wholesale

I just bought (4) of them (Basen "Black" 26650's for $7.98 ea.) as Mooch rates them at the Top of his Battery Tests, I've seen them go for as high as $17 ea. on other sites.

Is there a way to show what voltage the battery has remaining???

Thanks in advance.

 

[52anddone]

With your Presa 100 OFF, hold the LEFT or UP button and press the FIRE LEVER (5) times and you will get the remaining battery voltage.
