I have had this vmax for about a month, and I cannot get it to adjust. I took the batteries out to reset it, and it has made no difference. I have a Provari and they used to work the same. I have tried putting different tanks and carts on it too. I am sure I am doing something wrong, but I don't know what. Any advise? Please and thank you.

Uses 2 IMR 18350 batteries, ***NOT INCLUDED***
Discharge voltage: 6v - 8.4v
Quiescent current: Step-down regulator
PCB allows 5 Amperage output limit.
Device measurementiameter 21mm * length 110mm
VMax is made of brass and .painted black or silver.
Built-in three digit display allows you to visually adjust your voltage.
Available user setting :.
Power adjust up
Power adjust down
Power on/off.
Battery Check
Atomizer ohm check
LED on/off.
button never gets stuck, with a flexible 360° turn around
Vmax user settings:
UU- Power up
UD- Power down
SO- Power on/off
UC- Battery Check
DS - display information setting.
. . .*do- atomizer output voltage
. . .*du- battery output voltage
. . .*dR - atomizer ohm
LO- LED on/off
Power Adjust Up:
1. Press the button 3 times in a row until "UU" is shown on the display.
2. When UU is shown on the display, leave the button idle for 2 seconds. The display will change to show the last voltage selected.
3. Once the voltage is displayed, each time you press the button the voltage will advance to the next higher setting: 3.1,3.2,3.3 etc. When you reach 6.0, it will rotate back to 3.0 and go up again.
4. When you have reached the desired setting, leave the button idle for 2 seconds. The setting will be saved and VV will resume normal operation.
Power Adjust Down:
1. Press the button 4 times in a row until "UD" is shown on the display .
2. When UD is shown on the display , leave the button idle for 2 seconds. The display will change to show the last voltage selected.
4. Once the voltage is displayed, each time you press the button the voltage will advance to the next lower setting: 5.9,5.8,5.7 etc. When you reach 3.0, it will rotate back to 6.0 and go up again.
4. when you have reached the desired setting, leave the button idle for 2 second. The setting will be saved and VV will resume normal operation.
.Power On/Off:
1. Press the button 5 times in a row until "SO" is shown on the display.
2. When UD is shown on the display, leave the button idle for 2 seconds. The display will show the last setting, on or off .
4. Each time you press the button the display will toggle between on/off.
4. When you have reached the desired setting, leave the button idle for 2 seconds. If you selected "OF" the VV will go into standby mode.
Battery Check:
1. Press the button 6 times in a row until UC is shown on the display.
2. When UC is shown on the display, leave the button idle for 2 seconds, the digital display will show your battery voltage measurement.
3. The battery voltage will be displayed for 2 seconds, then the display will turn off.
Display Information Setting During Vaping:
1. Press the button 7 times in a row until DS is shown on the display,
2. When DS is shown on the display, leave the button for 2 seconds, the display will show the current setting: DO, DU or DR.
3. Each time you press the button, the setting will toggle among "DO" "DU" or "DR" ,
4. When "DO" is chosen, leave the button idle for 2 seconds, the setting will be saved and the display will show your atomizer working output voltage during your vaping;
5. When "DU" is chosen, leave the button idle for 2 second, the setting will be saved and the display will show your battery voltage during your vaping..
6. When "DR" is chosen, leave the button idle for 2 seconds, the setting will be saved and the display will show your atomizer resistance during your vaping.
LED On/Off
1. Press the button 8 times in a row until "LO" is shown on the display.
2. When LO is shown on the display, leave the button idle for 2 seconds, the display will show the current setting: ON/OFF .
3. Each time you press the button, the setting will toggle between on/off.
4. When you have reached the desired setting, leave the button idle for 2 seconds. The setting will be saved and VV will resume normal operation.
Short Circuit Protection:
The display will show the below error code when there is a short circuit:
1. F1: resistance for the heating coil of cartomizer is bigger than 0.5R, or smaller than 1.3R
2. F2: resistance for the heating coil of cartomizer is smaller than 0.5R

Evie...just a few questions...
Are you using the efest 800 button top batteries with the magnet, if not what batteries?
Without attaching anything does the unit power up?
