question about settings for cloupor gt

[shannon walker]

Ok my device is a cloupor gt 80watts 7.0 volts fires down to .15 with kanthal. My build is dual clapton coils 24 gauge core with 30 gauge outer wrap 6 wraps around a 3/32 screwdriver ohms out to .26 .

My question is when I set my device to 80 watts in vw mode it says it's firing about 4.45 volts which is really close to my calculatorbut of by just a little no problem there but when I put it in vv mode and turn it to the full 7.0 volts it says it's only firing at 76.4 watts and seems to ramp up faster in vv mode can someone please help me understand what'sgoing on?

As always thanks

I don't have that mod, so this is gust an opinion. It would not surprise me too much to find the watt limit is being reached at 76 watts instead of 80. If that's the case, if you lower the voltage to say 6V and then 5V you should still be getting 76 watts.

Hmm your right so my device is just putting out 76 watts or so max? No matter what

Seems like that's the case. It's only 5% below spec and everything has a tolerance on it. It might actually be the watt meter that's off a bit and it's really making more than 76 watts. I wouldn't worry about it, but that's just me

Yes I agree thank you very much. The book just happens to say it's power efficiency is only 95% lol
