I agree that the TC isn't "functioning" in the sense that no, I don't heat it up enough to get to my "lower limit" but it SHOULD be reading the coil (seems to be) and it DOES tell me what temperature my vape is getting to, and no, I highly doubt that the way I vape is going to "kick me" into to TC mode. Maybe if I deliberately vaped the one setup and chain-vaped it, Temperature protection might kick in.

I don't consider this "non-working" what I do consider it is "functional" in the sense that it tells me my vape stays cool, which is what I WANT. The question becomes do I "need" TC if it's really just providing straight wattage, and the answer is, at least in this setup, I don't. It just confirms my belief that at the wattage I vape at, and the way I vape, using the juices that I use, high temps aren't usually a concern in my tanks. I'm not going to raise my wattage and lower my high temp just to say "Okay, I am not vaping in wattage mode now." That makes absolutely no sense to me. But, these have been my expected results when I use TC-- I don't vape warm enough for long enough, to have "temp protect" kick in. Whether it's worth the extra battery life and annoyance, at least in this setup, well, possibly not. .I mentioned it merely because Coastal Cowboy stated my mod (the eleaf Invoke) used the same TC as the pico, which I guess one reviewer found to be grossly inaccurate. Of course, it was one reviewer. But this mod and setup behaves like the rest of my TC setups, including my Steampunk and my one DNA mod. I consistently get the result "TC not needed/useful" at least the way I vape.

I'm actually pleased, in a way, as the vape seems pretty similar to most of my other setups, it's the ares, by the way, using a 1.0 SSSL coil, and no, temp protect is not kicking in. The mod is "reading" my temperature, about the same way as the rest of my vapes.

Perhaps this is the reason there aren't a ton of TC coils for MTL tanks, it has been my observation that when "in" TC, the vape doesn't ever get "too warm" for "safety." That makes me happy, and it also makes me believe that the setups I vape aren't reaching dangerous temperatures, and that is what my TC experiments have "told" me so far, very consistently. Obviously, I can't say, check my nautilus coils (although I guess I "could" I do have a homn tech mod in my vape closet, so at some point I might do that.

But, TC tells me the way I vape does NOT require TC vaping for safety, that's a win, as far as I'm concerned, and I will probably put the Hohm Tech in rotation today and check some of my other, non SS tanks.

Good morning all.

Not happenin'. Possum pics are bad but not as bad as pics of great great grandchildren. Besides that, why would I want to have to be social with an entire new group of people? I like Shiny people.

Possible dumb question for the extremely shiny....
I'm allowing myself one or the other by the end of this month, so,
Which one?
Vandy Vape Pulse 80W
Or
Pick a DNA squonker under $130...
My biggest question being, I know some of you have experience with both chips. I am aware the DNA in the new "c" configuration is pretty damn customizable out of the box, even without a computer. As far as I know, DNA and Yihi are still top dogs, but from what ive read and watched, im not sure that the Gene chip is that far off...
Given a choice of only one (at least for a long while), which is the better long term investment?
I'm holding off on the 80w until I see what new DNA squonkers come around. I'm really curious about the Replay feature.

Ummmm yeah... Well I really don't know what to say...

Usually when I see very low numbers in reference to TC there is a problem with that persons setup or configuration. I always inquire as to why the numbers are like that and try to assist them in getting a proper working TC up and running.

I see that the way you use TC is working for you and that's great! :thumbs:

New Therions are a rumor. However it's a rumor I'm waiting on.

Unfortunately I think the regular ones will be released first. Keep in mind it was November..ish when the BF was released. Kinda early still for another one. Lost Vape isn't SMOK.

I was looking at the Stumps line the other day and was pondering Rhino or "B".
I don't care for a melon vape, one can only vape so many melon juices before they become a PIF this NOW sort of thing... :D
Is Rhino the Ginger or the granola? I tried those. The Ginger is VERY strong. I was thinking something light and fresh like Ginger Ale. More like eating raw ginger. The granola didn't really do much for me but my tastes are really strange. When it comes to food I love baked goods and desserts but the ejuice versions don't resemble those things at all to me. I really wish I could like them!
