You just lock it & keep your finger on the fire bar till it says turn off...
I don't get what you mean, it's a good mod but mine now says "resistance too high" so it doesn't get use now.
1: Vape mod and sit it on the table
2: Wait 5 mins and it goes to sleep
3: Pick up mod after it goes to sleep and hit the fire button, displays the logo then goes black. It's off
4: Must fire 5x to power back on....and cycle through the logo screen again
5: Takes more time to turn it on than it does to vape it.
It's just weird, I've never had a mod that did this and there is no setting to turn any "Auto Power Off" off. It is indeed a great feeling mod but this makes it about unusable because of this. May be a good mod if you are trying to quit vaping now I think about it.
