Today was my first day of using a mod in temperature control mode. I like the idea of it more than anything else about it, but the vape is pretty good. I'm using the pre-built 0.15 ohm nickel coils that Kanger makes for their Subtanks. The mod I'm using is the Heatvape Invader Mini, which works quite well in temperature control mode. In conventional mode with Kanthal coils, the mod does NOT work well at all... all kinds of bugs and defects... but I'll use it with nickel coils only, with which it works well and as advertised.

What does it do in nonTC mode? Seems like some on the Itty Bitty Mods thread use it that way and like it? Maybe yours is defective? Or set up wrong, if that's possible?

That was supposed to be VAPE damn phone. LOL

Huh, and I just thought it was a step up from Maxwell Smart's shoe phone....

Here is the support ticket I sent to MFS on Saturday morning:

Heatvape Invader Mini- return authorization requested

1. Does not detect whether nickel coil or kanthal coil is attached.
2. Shuts off if not used for 3 minutes, requiring removal and re-insertion of battery, followed by removal and reattachment of the atomizer tank, followed by changing the power setting, after which the PV SOMETIMES reads the atomizer correctly.
3. Does NOT remember previous settings when used with a kanthal coil. Instead, it defaults to thinking that a sub-ohm nickel coil is installed.
4. Even though it came in what's supposed to be the newer packaging where such flaws were supposedly addressed, the unit has all of the defects, and worse, that the original version was reported to have, as reported by Phil Busardo in this video:


I would like to return it for a credit or refund, since it is not as described in your sales information.

Thanks!
Dave Bellware


MFS has not yet responded. I didn't have a nickel coil available until yesterday to check how the mod performed in temperature control mode. Since my Invader Mini DOES work correctly in temperature control mode, I may well decide to keep it.

Papaw don't really come to the porch that I know of...... but....... I dunno if perhaps some howard's wax would work a bit or make it worse. If it's not a matter of the wood just being swollen up at the moment perhaps just the tiniest bit of sanding, but dunno. Right now the bedroom door isn't sticking here, but it was a few weeks ago. So if you were here that would likely not be the issue, but not sure how it is where you are now.

OK well I did the Howards wax thing..Maybe a bit more as it was really thick and I was askeered to put too much on the grooves..It's HOT here..Way hot and muggy..This is deepest darkest South Carolina hon. :lol:
