I am glad you like your Proteus guys! Its the most advanced temp control device today. Screen doesnt really mean anything on Proteus. It doesnt need it. Its a small device that looks like a mech one but the most advanced one

Couldn't agree more*. It just vapes and vapes and vapes and it's always the same vape and never a single issue so far.
The Pene on my Proteus has been on there for two weeks now, don't even remember the resistance.
Probably have vaped more than 50ml through this setup (mostly unflavored plus some HHV NET) and haven't even changed the wick. Tastes like the first day :)

(I will take a picture of that wick once I open that Pene up, but for now no reason to do so :D)

* And I WAS a bit sceptical buying that Proteus tbh, given that I'm a DNA/TC guy who never owned a mech or anything close (my GG4S should arrive this week btw... Imeo, you transformed me ;) )

Hi, received today the chip replacement but it seems that's it's not locking when I remove the Penelope. It doesn't flash green after waiting a while.

Am I doing something wrong? Tried with 2 different batches of AW (normal and 15c) :-(

What are your plans in the future for a temp control device Imeo. Will you go for a larger version of VIR to make it more cost effective and faster to market? I have an new idea to.
If I make something, it has to be small Adam. If I cant do that, I will not make anything. I dont make huge constructions just to make some bucks. I will stay focused on what it really has to be done. I leave the huge constructions to others! :)

it seems that you got the first damaged chip Utal. The bad thing is that its a replacement!!!

Ok, please ask your GG seller to send you a new one

Question for those lucky ones with their hands already on Proteus regarding short experince and opinions - what batteries proven to be the best?

I know that this also can be subjective matter but still, I would like to hear some opinions.

And also, if possible reccomendation for Europe based store which has them. :p

Nothing regarding battery experience? No one?

just go back a couple of pages, been talked about quite frequently.

the consensus seems that either Efest 14500 V2 Button Top or AW 14500 work best.

There are some fake Efests out there iirc, so buying from shady sources is discouraged.

I have recommended akkuteile.de for German/EU users earlier in this thread as they have a good reputation and I haven't heard of any fake batteries sold by them.
Don't know if they ship to Serbia though.

No protection needed/suggested as VIR is a regulated mod, hence it does protection and would be "disturbed" by a protected battery. Also most protected batts do cut-off at 2.5 Amp afaik and that would be not enough for VIR.

I use AW 14500. They work better than efest for me. You can try buy them here in Croatia (mtmstore), don't know what is shipping cost to Serbia. At nkon.nl (3€ shipping) they are no longer in stock (few weeks back they were), maybe they will have them again. You have them on ebreeze, but shipping is more than batteries...

Thank you. I will check akkuteile.de. :thumb:

Thank you. I looked now their web-site and they went far from their beginning when they were just one little store for basic vaping gear.

I know MTM owner from one domestic forum from the time he didn't own it yet so even if they don't ship to Serbia - he will ship it. :D

A simple Way to Count Proteus Temperature.
The "no screen" philosophie of proteus can be disturbing at first ... but after some time, I honnestly do not even care much about the temperature.
I know that the highest setting is still in the safe zone - health wise -, so I just go up/down until I like the vape ... and if I must remember the setting, it's a number between 1 and 11 :)

My #45 has been shipped. :thumbs:

What's the difference between AW IMR 650 mAh and AW IMR 600mAh? I mean, beside the obvious difference regarding 50mAh capacity.

I can't find anywhere store which ships 650mAh to Serbia but I found few that have 600mAh and are shipping.

Also, price difference between 600 and 650mAh is not so small for a battery so that makes me suspicious.

If I can't find 650mAh anywhere soon, is it better to buy this 600mAh or Efest IMR 700mAh?

hey everyone, so i have some bad news. my proteus shipment still hasn't been delivered to me... it looks like it's currently stuck in customs. i'm not sure how much longer it will take to clear customs, but the problem is that i'm leaving for a trip tomorrow and won't be back until the 27th. i'm really sorry for the delay, but there really isn't anything i can do at this point. i hope you all understand

yes they will be safe upon delivery. i might be able to have someone ship them out to you guys for me, but they are probably completely disassembled and i don't think i would feel comfortable having anyone else other than myself assemble them.

It is also the first PV that vapes by just adjusting temp. That's quite impressive by itself
