Yeah that happened to me right before she blew. Also reads incorrect atty resistance.

Well...a couple users here have blown 'em using lowish builds. I'm gonna stick to .8-.7 ohm myself....plenty satisfying for me. If I want a warmer, more open draw, I just hit the Mutant!
Weird that the provari ain't firing it...1.2 ohm shouldn't be a problem (though the buddha DWARFS it!) Do you like it it better at 1.2 on the Seven 30 or do you prefer sub-ohm?
You misunderstood, Provari fires it, no problems, except 15 Watts is not enough for me.
As far as this 1.2 Ohm build is concerned, on Regulated device like Seven-30, I can't seem to tell the difference in performance comparing to sub-ohm build.
At 1.2 Ohms it fires at 6.0V / 5.0A and gets 30 Watts. At 0.5 Ohms it fires at 3.87V / 7.74A and gets 30 Watts.
With reduced Current by 2.74 Amps I reduced the chance of destroying SX-300 by overload.
BUT, I cannot use 1.2 Ohm Buddha on Mechanical device because at that resistance I will only get 11 Watts out of it.
Also, did you notice how big those 2.4 Ohm coils came out? It is a "Beatch" to work with.
On my next build, I will go back to sub-ohm.
They're actually down to .15 right now. They were going for .1, but had some issues at this point. If you're going down to .15 at 60w you'll have to upgrade your wiring to 16AWG though.Well the other way to look at it is go ahead and run .5 and blow your chip then paste an SX350 in it and your safe down to .2 ohms, Rumored.1 ohms in next firmware release.
I sure did misunderstand!
15W is too weak once you've moved up...
Those coils were so big, you had to turn em diagonal so they'd fit!
I tried building the buddha with the diagonal coils, but didn't like it as much is straight across the air holes. I guess that's why I like my .8 ohm build on the Buddha. I can move in between my Seven 30 and mech without too many problems...though I might go a hair lower next build.
I believe that I've just successfully determined that I'll never be satisfied with the power that practical vaping provides. I just took a 7 second hit at around 425w, and I still want more. Maybe it's time for me to just hook up a trampoline spring to a car battery, perhaps that would make me happy.
With the amount of money I spend on vaping, maybe I should. Walmart has a 1000w fog machine, I bet it would fit in a backpack with a car battery and an inverter. I could hook it up CamelBak style, with a tube running over my shoulder. I'd win all the cloud competitions! Or I'd sear my lungs and die. Either way, maybe I'd finally be satisfied lol.

Nah, my 10 inches is probably gonna be a stacked dual 26650 mod made from a metal pipe. I'll have to get a lightsaber holster just to carry it around.Or ,you can try these 10 Inches of Vaping Glory!

Sorry, just saw that bit. Yeah, I wired them together for a combined full charge voltage of 8.4. Assuming a voltage sag of 0.4, that's 8v running through dual 28g quad parallels at 0.15, which works out to like 426w and some change. Got a blister on the roof of my mouth now because of how hot it got, but it was worth it.

Maybe try .8 ohm and see if that helps? Mine still runnin strong at 3 weeks @ .8 ohm 30W. I kinda wanna try .7 next...
I use two 1.5 ohm so I was rounding down, I'm actually running 1.45. Maybe its just a bug in their firmware.
I thought 0.7 ohms was considered safe, does the amount of power come into play also. IOW's 0.7 ohms @ 20 watts is less risky than 0.7 ohms @ 30 watts.
meter read 0.8, but I have little faith in a device I can't calibrate. The fluke DMM measure 0.75.
It should be "safe," although there is no hard guideline here and likely different tolerances. The amount of voltage the device is pushing probably comes into play, but the ohms the device can push down to is limited. THey clearly don't like it down around .5 ohm.
Just keep using it...if you feel weird about getting those error messages, try building higher...that's all I can suggest. It's worth a shot. If you still get the same messages, then it's not the resistance...
Yes 0.7 Ohms @ 20 Watts = 5.34 Amps (3.74V)
0.7 Ohms @ 30 Watts = 6.55 Amps (4.58V)
The less Amps, the less stress on the chip. Less current is running through it's conductors and components.
That's why I did 1.2 Ohms @ 30 Watts = 5.0 Amps
Thus still gives me my 30 Watts, but at lower Amps is relatively less stressful on the SX300
Cons: I can't put it on a Mechanical Device.

Well, I can only speak for myself...but my .8 ohm build runs at 30W and 4.89V according to the Seven 30's display.
The calculator estimates me at 6.12 Amps (4.9V) so that's sounds just about spot on. I'm actually taxing the chip more than regal55 is with .7 ohm @ 20W...
I can still put it on my mech too.
