Do you use TC on your 100W mod? I doubt you'll be satisfied with TC on any mod with any firmware at those power levels Fozzy. That said the Arctic Fox is definetly better than the standard Pico firmware for TC or even using a power curve. The mod itself can be a limiting factor, for instance the cold resistance setting is an important factor, and the Pico does vary a bit on this and I have to account for that in settings, sometimes cranking the temperature setting up. No different than the Pico firmware in that regard, however MUCH better temperature accuracy on 316L SS with AF settings than the Pico settings for SS.
I pretty much never use my picos anymore as I prefer lower ohm builds. When I mentioned 100w+ I was referring to my rx mods (also have a few hohm wrecker g2's in rotation).
What you mean is you want a lot more vapor. That requires more wire and more watts to heat that wire. A few months ago I went the opposite way. Switching from 28 guage to 30 guage while keeping the same resistance allowed me to go from 30 max watts to 16 and get the same heat flux but producing less vapor, not more. In a few days I was used to it. The advantage is if I hold my breath for a few seconds there's almost no visiible vapor, which lets me vape in more places, saves battery power and seems to be reducing daily ml's, all goals of mine. Early on Evolv believed that 40 watts was enough and it is enough unless vaping needs to be a side show. Clouds are probably fine if that's what it takes to steer people away from smoking and it helps me hide what I do because people usually don't react unless there is visible vapor, but clouds are the reason most of the places I go discourage vaping.
I thought it was in the latest release....
I mostly use a Pico but sometimes use a VTC mini, Evic Basic, or Pico mega. All have AF firmware. I'm happy it works out that way and unlikely to be buying any mod that can't use it.
i think my next mod will be a pico or an istick 200w tc
my 2 year old evic mini was built like a tank im having alot of nostalgia using it again!There are endless, and justified, debates about China's part in the clone market, and JT's role in particular... but I'm a fanboi (with a dozen or so JTs going back to the i30) and appreciate their advancing of the "upgradeability" concept for our budget sector mods.
That said... I used the exact same " breathed new life" phrase again just yesterday in another related thread.
Yup... kudos to the AF team.
Since I use temp control it's nice to be able to see the watts used for each puff. I have things set up so when the well of my rda is empty and the wick is becoming less saturated I can see the watts declining and temp rising. It's also nice that the puff counter and timer can be reset.
