No idea Bronze. It was the last roll that I had bought, after I bought the KFL
Edit: Found it! Yes 30 GA from Lightening Vapes

Nah, just an organized freak. Underneath it all, I am lazy and don't want to work that hard to find something. LOL
Get yourself a spool of 28 gauge from Lightning Vapes. It makes for a better vape on this P3 using boost. I know the gear you use, the juice you vape, and how you like to vape. Trust me.

JUST CURIOUS WHY IS 28 G BETTER? Sorry about the caps.
You'll be much happier in that ohm range.
Ohm.
Range...wait......
[emoji444]Ohm, Ohm on the range...[emoji444]
Well, 30 gauge runs you up close to the boost limit. 26 gauge seems to mute the flavor. 28 gauge puts you in that sweet spot of 1.5 ohms +/- a couple tenths. And I like to maximize my coil area. The thickest wire will do that. I'm still playing with 26 gauge but early returns are producing a little less flavor for some reason. Not giving up on it yet though. 28 gauge works very nice with the boost feature. BTW, I'm talking about a Kayfun build here...microcoil, 10-wrap, 2.00 mm ID. Mileage may vary depending on the atty and build. I don't want to suggest this is the right build for other attys.
Bronze, I will check into it.
Good girl. The wire is cheap, no shipping costs, and they're in your state. Give yourself a pat on the head.
sorry to bother everyone I do not have time to look through 348 pages of P3 info!
I vape on my P2.5 at 5.3 volts using a 3.0 OHM cartomizer.
Will the hot shot boost mode work well with my setup or do I need to buy lower OHM cartomizers to fully use this hot shot boost mode
Note: I did not buy a P3 yet. thinking about buying one
I am using a CARTO/TANK setup not a RBA

Read this quote from Vape360...
Warning messages received when attempting to use Hot Shot Boost Mode are typically due to the atomizer being above 2.1 ohms. Boost mode increases initial device output power for a duration based on the Boost setting. If atomizer ohms are too high, the device voltage limit (6), also limits the boost power, and provides a warning message. Boost still works, just at a reduce power level. To get full benefit from Hot Shot Boost Mode, use an atomizer having 2.1 ohms or less. The ideal coil resistance for the P3 is in the 1.6 - 1.8ohm range.
ProVari P3 warning messages differ from error messages. Error messages can sometimes signal an issue with the device, while warning messages notify the user that the device is limiting requested output performance, typically because atomizer ohms is not compatible with the output setting. Warning messages do not mean that there is a problem with the P3 device, it's just letting you know there is a boundary condition, but in all warning situations it will continue to run and it's up to the user to choose if they want to make changes.
There is no difference in P3 software versions 35 and 36 with regards to the device providing warning messages when using boost mode. This is strictly a function of atomizer ohms being in the correct range

Great !! Working as intended I guess. Now if they can add an LED light in the new aspire tanks I can vape and see where I'm going at the same time
I hate getting olderI got mine 3 days ago and am loving it. The IQ feature I agree would be gimmicky but there does indeed seem to be some science behind it. I date all my batteries with a sharpie and sure enough the score goes down on the older ones so it is a good measure of battery health IMO.
I have to say the menu takes some getting used to (the 2.5 being absurdly simple these days, which I LOVE) but the ability to have 1 unit for all three battery sizes rocks.
I am using LR cartos from Boge and Ikenvape. They are supposed to be 2.0Ω, but many range between 2.1 and 2.2Ω. The 2.2Ω I'm using right now gets what ProVape refers to as a warning, and according to them is supposed to get reduced boost. I'll have to get an inline voltmeter to verify that's the case, but I certainly can't detect any boost on it by ear, the way I can with 1.8Ω and lower.
If you are set on using boost with cartos, I'd recommend trying the 1.7Ω Smok cartos. That gives you some leeway for manufacturing tolerances allowing those 1.7Ω cartos to be as much as 2.0Ω.
Hope this helps...

Kinda looks like all the other photos we've seen, huh?
I think mine looks best with the smooth extension ring for 18490 mode.
IMO, Jim
