... im pretty confused at this point.
Don't Feel it is just You. In All Honesty, TC can be Very Confusing.
The Thing with using TC is the are More Parameters to consider than when you Vape in Wattage Mode.
Temp Settings, Wattage Settings, TCR Values, Wire Alloy/Coil Type, Pre-Heat, Resistance Locking/Non-Locking, etc. And to Top it All Off, TC Isn't exactly a Unified Standard. Some
mods with some Builds do TC really Well. Some So-So. And some Not So Good. So it can take Some Experimentation to find what works Best for Your Build and Your
mod.
I think
@Izan nailed it earlier. And that is I would Start by getting the Build COMPLETELY Dialed In 1st in Wattage Mode. Then Switch over to TC and see what Settings effect what.
