@GeorgeS Yeah thats what I figure also. I really have no use for that much power but it is a cool looking mod. I kinda wanted to get a couple of Picos but I am pretty sure I would have to use my little vinyl washers on those too. They are a stealthy little mod and from what I've heard good in TC. At $28 you can't go too wrong. I have SX's going and 2 brand new ones put away but I wish I would'v otten 2 more of the ML's when that place had them for $100 I only got 1.

Ok Finally got a response from Sigelei. They actually called me on the phone and want to talk to me. Unfortunately I missed the call. I will be calling them tomorrow. I have a direct number to speak with them. If you have ANY of these problems send them to warranty@ci-garette.com . Its important that they see your problems. I will update tomorrow.

    To think I could of simply picked up TWO eLeaf TC100's for the price I paid for one 213. (sigh) Live and learn. (small form factor, functional presets AND TCR modes, dual 18650's, unique 'squeeze to fire').

    linked this thread to another forum so hopefully more owners can contact sigelei and push for a fix.
    Same here, I linked this thread to another forum. Thanks to @Darthtanien , @GeorgeS and all the other testers. Whilst I have been experiencing the minor misfire and screen glitch issues, I would not have known about the TCR and TFR issues if you did not test it out (I vape mainly in wattage).

    I vaped TCR with preheat of 1 sec wattage of 30W and thought it was working as intended but clearly isn't.

    Lets see what Sigelei says since Darth seemed to have made contact.

    I also know pretty much nothing about sigelei. I have one a DNA20 clone still works ok but the screen stays on till the battery is dead. Wow you got a call from them thats good Darth.
    Yep. I missed it but got their message. Will call tomorrow and let you guys know what happened. Everyone that has the screen glitch or any of the Missfire, tcr / tfr issues needs to sent them to warranty@ci-garette.com I still have a DNA-20 ! Not a clone though and it still works too.

    I watched Mike Vapes review of it and he is not very thorough but he said there is nothing in the owners manual about upgrades but it sounds like it needs one.
    If there is one thing I have noticed, most of these Youtube reviewers are not particularly good at their job. If you want testing of temp control, you have to wait for reviews by people such pbusardo, DJLsb Vapes and Vaping with Vic. The reason you have to wait is because these reviewers actually take their time in testing these things out.

    someone should donate a sig213 to either djlsb or pbusardo and have them do a review of it already..

    That's another on my list and the cuboid.

    I hear you there I like his reviews a PB's. I love all the charts Daniel has with all the mods, things that might not seem important but are to me like 510 travel and length of the 510 on most all of the atty's

    I emailed a picture of the jumbled screen and an account of my 1st few days with the 213 to Sigelei.

    On paper this looked to be a STAND OUT product - curves entered directly on the mod? Seems to be one of the lightest 2x18650's on the market. Programmable pre-heat function?

    Sorry, I think "mike vapes" is an idiot. While watching his 'first looks' video on the SXminiQ, he went on-on-on-on how much he loved YiHi SX's and then started babbling about the gravity sensor being able to automatically sense the wire type.

    I could not watch any more. His review of the 213 appears to be all in POWER mode. No real review at all. Only real gripe is the 0.1 resistance limit. Really? Who uses Ni200 anymore?
