Sigelei 213 owners thread

[JLR9]

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.

I sent them an email either yesterday or the day before about these issues we are seeing here. Not as detailed as yours was, I'm sure. But I also asked if they plan a firmware update for these. I'll let you guys know what I hear from them.

despite all these issues I just ordered a 213 from vapeNW, awesome deal and comes with 2 batts I don't really care about TC so.... but, wish me luck anyway i'm hoping the one I get atleast doesn't have the screen garble! that only happens in TC mode correct?

 

[2legsshrt]

Well it's been nice talking to you folks here, learned a lot thanks. Guess I'll go back to the Geriatric Porches where I belong.

I triggered mine once by accessing the power ramp up/preheat power adjustment menu.

Thanks for this. Hoping sigelei will fix it somehow but I'm not holding my breath

[edit] isn't this considered false advertising on Sigelei's part?

Yes sir. It most definitely is.

Should've got the RX200S @nelsonm64 Hey do you live in Nelson BC or is that your name?

 

[2legsshrt]

The reason I ask is I worked a local on the RR a few times that went from Kettle Falls to Nelson. Then we'd sit there in the bar with the strippers till our train got there we had to take back. Usually2-3 pitchers worth. Back in the good old days.

Did anyone notice this on vapenw, bet it is down to the 213

hmmm, what do you do to get rid of it, pull the batteries? hope not

I take that back it was Grand Forks. Nelson was the job I tried to avoid cause it was a 3 day trip. the Grand Forks job was a great job home every night usually in a lot worse shape then when you left.

That is ugly I thought they had a return policy.

you know, I was just considering that! hmmm.

Lots of bad posts of vapenw warranty/returns, including charging 20% restocking fee on returns, even if device is bad.

I use them sometimes, but it is a gamble though, got a HCigar VT75 coming from them, but feel pretty safe with that device, but saying that, thought the same about the sig 213 too though.

If you're a power mode vaper, I wouldn't cancel, or maybe order from MVS instead. I'd order 2 more of these mods if I had the money. $80 delivered is a hell of a deal for this small, lightweight, powerful, amazing hardware build quality, fast charging, beautiful, preheating, REAL carbon fibre mod.

The "screen garble" is cosmetic ONLY, and does not impede function in any way. It also only happens when accessing preheat menu from sleep, so if you don't want to see it, just don't do that. Even if you do, you can still read and set it. This has been blown out of proportion; very minor issue here.


It sucks that it isn't working out for the TC guys, and I really hope Sigelei makes it right. But it's still an AWESOME mod for VW.

I can get the screen to garble pretty much any time accessing the pre heat menu from sleep. But that is only when I press the up button and fire button at the exact same time. If I press the the up button only a fraction of a second before the fire button it doesn't do it.

The device works great in Power mode which is what I run it in normally. I normally run it a little low because I don't want this Crown to be chugging juice, but I can always kick it up when I want.
