    Yes you can. Go to menu (holding - and +) and select power...instead of FO :thumb:
    I see now. Thanks Fredman. The wavelength indicator now looks flat. We'll see how this goes :thumb:.

    I’m on season 7 of the original. Now I have to pay for all the newer ones - $20 per season. But I’ll probably get them.
    I’ve been through Miss Marple, Midsommer Murders, Murdock Mysteries and Golden Girls 2-3 times this year. Trying to save my re-Bosch for fall. Speaking of, there’s going to be a spin off but I’m not sure when that drops. Spring, I bet.
    We've just watched the final episode of Bosch....really good series and I don't know why they've ended it so soon....one of our favourites.

    Unfortunately I've found that fo and power mode makes no difference.....it still eats batteries and juice.... especially with the 0.3 Z coil.

    Because I rarely sub ohm, it'll be a while before I get to the 0.3 coil. I'm using the installed 0.8 right now and like it pretty well, except for the hissing sound my other RTAs don't do. I'll be trying out the 1.2 next.

    I just got done using a Zlide for the Kroma, and wasn’t in the mood to suffer through it again. So I’ve got a Kelpie with a .5 coil in it. But I’m a low watts girl so I’m at 20w and 30hz. I get a day out if it, but just barely. It’s a power sucker for sure. Still, what a nice little mod.

    Agreed....I'm using mine even lower at 16-17.5 watts and same....barely a day.

    I haven't watched a ton of the pre-Tom Baker episodes. I also disliked Colin Baker's Doctor, so I've yet to see many of his episodes as well. Plenty of important work left to do on the Who front, in other words.

    Morning shinies ;)

    I tried a 3mm in the Ursa rba this morning. @Fredman1 you were spot on with the difference, definitely more ooomph. But it was a bit too throat tub thumping for me - so I went back to the 2.5mm.

    The best part was it took only 2 minutes to stick a coil in that deck - I love it. It took 4 minutes to stick the 2.5mm back in. 2 minutes were spent ground searching - after I unscrewed a tad too far and the screw went flying into the carpet. :lol: Luna 'helped' find it.

    You people have put the confusion into me now. I'll concentrate on it now, but I really haven't noticed the Z 80 being a power guzzler...and i've used it on higher and lower powers...15-25W (yeah that's high for me :cry:).
    Can't say how long...or not, it lasts, but it feels like a normal 18650 mod to me :unsure:

    Some would say this is blasphemy, but I don’t like any of the old ones as much as the newer ones. Still, it’s better than a lot of the stuff that’s on tv.
    Oh, and I thought I heard Captain Jack Harkness was going to be making an appearance soon? I sure hope so.

    What coil are you using? Mines a Clapton and they do need a bit more power than the Z coils I think. It’s what I’d use in most atties - like the ones I use with the Lunas. I usually swap out a Luna battery in the AM with 50% left. The Z was under 40% and I wasn’t vaping very hard. Don’t get me wrong, not a deal breaker. Just enough to notice.

    Ah i'm a old school dude. I only use 26G...simple round wire coils :D

    I haven't watched any original Whos for a long time, so, for all I know, I won't like them as much now. I hope that's not the case, though. I loved Tom Baker's run when I watched it in the early eighties, and it would be a treat to love it as much now.

    Have you seen Blake's 7?

    I'm in the same boat, I thought it was normal battery wise. I know my Mixxes last a bit longer, but they outlast all my 18650 mods. I've been using mainly RTAs on my two lately, and I'm around 20-25 watts in f0 mode.

    I still want another two, as I love the Zenith IIs in foff (blame @DeloresRose) :sneaky:mode. But, changing attys got old and they are on other mods now.

    Tbh....I couldn't stand watching Dr Who....I hated the modern stuff. I watched the old stuff when I was a wee nipper. My sister used to hide behind the sofa so that was a plus :D:lol::pervy:
