Is there a trick to getting into menu mode?
Keep holding the up/fire button...nothing.
Finally got it after many tries, to turn off the lights.
Now can't get it to work again.
Seems to be a solid mod, but wish the screen and all the controls were on the same side.

I think the instructions said to press the fire button 3 times while pressing the + button.
Instructions say just hold the + and power button.
It seems to be sensitive on mine, regarding where the up button is pressed.
I can now get it to work after a few tries.
Don't use the TC, so don't have to go into the menu too often.
Have to get used to the side fire button.
I keep picking it up and try to fire it like a regular Pico...
I’ve now gotten so used to the side button, I often grab my Inbox and start pushing the side with my thumb.
agree that +/- button is over sensitive, some time i leave it lay down while driving, unlock can be trigger than all the way down to 1W.Instructions say just hold the + and power button.

btw i found another nice thing abt this mod, due to strong bottom magnet, our mod can stick on steel table without worry of fall ....
On my initial setup (the only time I used the +/-) I had to use my thumb nail. If I used finger or thumb, I tended to trigger both buttons at the same time. Fine with me since I avoid looking at the screen, and playing with settings.
@Spydro
I’m sure Eciggity will take care of you, sorry you got a dud. Be sure and tell us how the new one from MVS goes and share a pic if you can!
The defective Black Squeeze 2 Kit: over 3 weeks later I still have the defective kit, and that's where this will end as I can't/won't jump through the required hoops to return it to the supplier for replacement. A ridiculous first required step that I've never seen the likes of in 5.5 years of vaping stopped it before it even started. I am a return customer... I have trusted them by paying them in full up front for items bought from them, but they didn't trust me and I have a big problem with that. However, they did set that silliness aside and tried to accommodate following 'their' other hoops. But in the end it still required a step I couldn't do and the delays would be long to get a replacement.
Again, this was not their fault, the box was sealed from the MFG. My previous buys from them had been flawless. They did try to help, sort of, but wouldn't do what I requested up front for an easier for me with my issues and a faster turnaround time (again, not trusting me). I have little need for more vape gear with around 100 mods and 250 atty's, so don't see ever buying again from them.
Just Curious...
But what are the Hoops they want you to jump threw?
And Who are you Returning it to?
@Figs, the Purple Squeeze 2 Kit was received about 9 days ago. This one works flawlessly and the menu is an easy first try to get into each time. First order of business was to turn the silly color LED's OFF! Second was to remove the atty 'beauty ring'.
The Coral 2
I first set up both of them with the Coral 2 using an included coil (that I spaced to avoid spit back in the shotgun bore drip tips). I'm not a fan of single 'coil' atty's, but these work quite well for DLH's with their ample AFC and the included Clapton's. The coils are a high Ω build for my normal uses (I rarely run any builds anymore other than 0.09Ω to 0.15Ω). So instead I'm running a couple of my fire breathing dragons (Digi Mesh Pro RDA's) on mine instead with a strip of SS 316L Elite Mesh horseshoed over a massive pulled and rolled cotton wick at around 0.12Ω.
The Squeeze 2
Overall I like the mod. It appears to be well made for the price point. Like packing a Sherman Tank. The side fire (as a right hand vaper) I like a lot. Fired with the thumb knuckle and squonked with the ring finger means it can stay right in the hand with same grip for those functions. And I like this bottle system better than any of my other squonk mods that use an 'attached' SS fed tube. They have never leaked and are as easy as it gets to refill. IMO improvements would be a horizontal screen, separate +/- buttons and all of them on the same side as the fire button so easily accessed by simply moving the thumb instead of changing you grip.
I doubt I'll continue to use the Black Squeeze with the defective chip set with no idea how long it would work and the extra drain on the batts with the endless flashing LEDS. Just not enough money to worry about. If the purple version continues to 'grow on me' I might buy more of them (without the Coral 2). I can see them replacing at least 2 of my other regulated squonk mods/taking over their Mesh Pro RDA's, and maybe even 4 of them. While I have endless top shelf 18650 and a large stash of 20700 batts that would work in them, I'd also buy a stash of these top shelf 21700 batts for them as well.
BTW, this defective black Squeeze mod is the first mod I've bought that was defective right out of the box. So with around 100 mods I'm still way ahead.
Sorry no pictures @Figs. I no longer bother with making them since I don't run any forums regular anymore.

Loving this mod in TC mode paired with a Recurve. I used to drip exclusively until decent affordable RTA's started coming out. Now I only vape using temp control because I'm kind of an absent minded vaper. Lost count on how many wicks I've cooked while watching TV.
Is there a way to adjust the max wattage while in TC mode? I'd like to have the option to take it down to around 35 watts like you can with an OBS Bat and other mods.

They wanted a video made and forwarded to them that shows proof positive that the mod would not go into the menu before they would believe that it in fact will not. A video would have proved to them that the chips set is screwed up when the LED's flash 10 times every time you fire the mod, but a ridiculous hoop I couldn't and wouldn't do. The other hoops added a long delay to getting it replaced so I did not return it. It's mostly out of sight so out of mind now. I don't care about it at all anymore... I use the purple one I got from another vendor.
@Figs
I finally did make a quick picture of both of them for you (the Black POS and the Purple veersion I vape pretty much 24/7 in my daily/nightly rotations now).
I put one of my favorite atty's of all time on it (I have 5 of them), a silver version Digiflavor Mesh Pro RDA. These fire breathing dragons make for a nice combo on the S2 for my vaping style. I like this S2 better than any of my other squonk mods. mech or regulated (I have 42 of them). So I attempted to buy a couple more of these from MVS. But they are out of the colors I wanted, and have no idea when or even if they will get another shipment. I'm not a fan of buying from China where the lions share of them seem to be in stock. So will wait to see if any other US vendors I will buy from get a supply of them. If not my favorite mech dual parallel batt squonkers will pick up the slack.

I always look for a You Tube video from Daniel at DJLsb- he goes through every function of every mod and tank.
Skip to 20:00 and he will explain how to set your wattage while using temp control
The only reviewer I actually pay attention to. No posing, no childish antics, and no BS. Just solid information from a knowledgeable person.
He's my go to guy as well.
I do enjoy watching Jai Haze though sometimes. I get to see all of the flaws a device has that I never would have noticed or don't matter to me.
Daniel seems to have the most in-depth, informative, and seemingly non-biased reviews.
Gotcha.
I know that FT asks for a Video when doing some returns. But if a person tells them they Can't make a video, they still do the return Anyway.
In my experience all the vendors and manufacturers ask for a short video when requesting support.
My BetaMax video camera quit working long ago, I hope I have no problems.
