PROTEUS IS IN YOUR HANDS:

1. To install a battery, unscrew the brass part and insert an 14500 IMR battery, positive side up. Screw the brass part again. If the battery is not making contact, please unscrew the venting cap and adjust the small brass bolt inside it.

2. Wait 6 seconds until Proteus locks (you will see green light blinking a few times and then a blue light will stay on for 2 seconds).

3. Connect an atomizer on Proteus which has a Titanium grade 1 coil.

4. Unlock Proteus by pressing 5 quick times the button. You will have a red light blinking slowly. Dont interfere with the device during this procedure. After blinking stops (in about 25 sec on a cold atomizer or in about 1 minute on a very hot atomizer), you will have a fixed orange light that stays on for about 2 seconds and shows that auto detection function is finished.

5. Push the button to vape.



LIGHTS THAT WILL APPEAR DURING vaping:

1 short red blink: You vape at lower temperature because battery cannot sustain the set temperature level.

10 green fast blinks: Your atomizer is bad fed or its running out of liquid, so you have to refill it. Especially on GG atomizers, you can just open the liquid control. If the problem persists, you have to refill.

5 slow white blinks: The charge in the battery is getting low and soon it will be discharged completely. Change your battery or go to a lower temperature step.

Blue light is steady on for 2 seconds: Proteus is locked because the button was pushed for more than 15 seconds (press button 5 times to unlock it).

10 red fast blinks: Short circuit, meaning that your atomizer has a lower resistance than VIR can handle, or your atomizer is shorting. Check your atomizer or make a new coil. Before you make a new coil, wash your atomizer under running water to remove any small pieces of wires that may be shorting it.



MENU:

Note: The range of the working temperature is 180-280 Celsius degrees. Proteus remembers the temperature setting and all your settings in general after battery is changed.

Up menu - Increase temperature level: push 3 times and keep the button pushed for 1 sec. The red light will stay on. While its on, push the button 1 time to increase the temperature 10 Celsius degrees, 2 times for 20 Celsius degrees increase, etc

Down menu-Decrease temperature level: push 4 times and keep the button pushed for 1 sec. The green light will stay on. While its on, push the button 1 time to decrease the temperature 10 Celsius degrees, 2 times for 20 Celsius degrees decrease, etc

Lock Proteus: push the button 5 times (blue light stays on for 2 seconds)

Unlock Proteus: push the button 5 times (blue light blinks 3 times)

Check set temperature: Go to either the Up or Down menu and when either the red or the green lights turn on, release the button. An orange light will start blinking slowly, each blink indicating one step in temperature ( 10 Celsius degrees). The total number of blinks will let you know what temperature you are at.

Stop led's blinkings in general: push 1 time the button



CHANGING ATOMIZER:

If you want to vape again on the same atomizer (or without changing the coil on it), lock Proteus - disconnect the atomizer - connect it again when you are ready. Unlock and vape

If you want to vape with a different atomizer (or with the same atomizer in witch you changed the coil), let Proteus lock by itself - connect the new atomizer - unlock - wait until orange light turns on (after 25 sec-1 min, depending of how cold or hot the atomizer is) and vape.



CLEANING:

Keep threads and contacts clean, otherwise your Proteus will not work as you expect.

Simple and excellent....
Nice proteckt3d's corrections
I imagine somethink like that with coloured the words as the lights in a A4 page for every Proteus :)

nice idea Stelios. But I prefer to keep it only online for now. I will ask my sellers to put it on their sites so everyone will be able to have access on this guide. Also I will upload it to "free cloud storage" so all people can downloaded and print it if they like (with the colours you mention!)

VERY IMPORTANT TIPS AND TRICKS:

Threads of the coil must NOT touch each other

Legs of the coil (the distance between coil and posts that keep wires) must be the shortest possible

Wick must be equal tight inside the coil and in all of coil's length

Dear Imeo,

I am so very excited to finally have the Proteus after years of looking forward to it. I do am a bit worried though because I don't have a Penelope, meaning I won't be able to even vape the Proteus. Will you send Penelope's with the Proteus order so I can buy one ( and other users who may not have a Penelope but ordered Proteus)? It would be sad to have finally Proteus but no way to vape....I hope I can get a Penelope too. If not any ideas what else I could use on Proteus or will only the Penelope work? Thank you so much Imeo...great work :)

can we use twisted and parallel coils in proteus?

it says the coils can't touch, so how much spacing needs to be between each coil wrap? can they be really close as long as they aren't touching?

twisted coils must work jess. I havent any sign that they dont work.
Coils can be as close as you can make them but they have to not touch each other, thats it:)
