I'm sorry, Dave. I'm afraid I can't do that.

Actually, according to the commercial, Mikey "hates" everything (except whatever it is you're selling...he likes that).
I bet Mikey now sells highly leveraged financial derivatives for Goldman-Sachs.

I just noticed something interesting about that Vape Forward review from SMM for the Stout, etc. -- The updated firmware that has the TCR feature is using the old font.

It could mean different things, including (I fear), that the TCR feature was added before the RX200 font update and simply commented-out (disabled) in the RX200, for artificial reasons.

We'll know soon. If TCR is not included in the next few weeks, we'll know it's for artificial reasons (marketing).

It's seems unlikely they would purposefully use that wonky old font in the Vape Forward line, even for differentiation reason, as that would be too subtle and weird a way to differentiate.

So, yeah, I think they're holding out on us.

Have you checked the battery charge state and if so, could you mention your results here when you have the time? It is purely anecdotal but still very informative. If you have been doing "it" consistently then your results are quite valuable.

And this is my 4th day on this Ti build. Insane all right. It feels odd not having to perform the daily build ritual.
Most variance I have seen is 0.09v. Most of the time one or the other is about 0.05 off. Two seem to be really close all the time with each other.

Honestly hundreth(s) of a volt is nothing to worry about. 0.7 though is a little more worrisome.

Right now I am at 3.44 3.45 and 3.50 at the tail end of two days without a charge. It wasn't even fully charged yesterday morning when I stepped off to work.

Not OP, I just found this thread through Google, but I want to adjust the resistance on my Reuleaux because it sometimes reads the resistance (at room temp) higher than I know the actual resistance is, which causes the temp control to not work as well. This is one of my favorite features on my X Cube II; adjusting ohms on the fly. No need for waiting until the coils have cooled and having to lock resistance when your mod is reading the exact right ohms. I'm curious if the DNA200 does this, and I really hope they add this feature for the RX200.
So if your .05 coil is not properly mounted and reading .16 or whatever and you have the resistance set and locked to .05 what happens then. I would assume the coil will only fire at .16. How does it force resistance into a coil?

As for the firmwares I think we'll have to wait for the RX200 specific one as it has 3x18650 versus the 2 and 1 models with TCR. Me thinks the circuitry inside is completely different (at a minimum how the batteries are wired and recognized by the board).

I bet that's just one or two variables declared at the top of their unified codebase.

That's how I'd do it.

The main thing I thought was holding up the TCR feature was them figuring out how to translate the UI / navigation to the smaller screen -- but alas, that part is done (and I think was done for a while now).

Anybody, like maybe the person I quoted?
You simply install an older version of the firmware (all versions are included in the download). Just like when you upgrade, you just choose, for example, the 1.07 bin file instead of the 1.08.

It's frustrating not having the mod right here in my sweaty mitts so I can analyse things a bit closer, but mine physically landed in Richmond at 1:30am which means there is a better than even chance I will have it today. They only need to stop once to water and grain the mules between here and Richmond so fingers, toes and eyes crossed. Then I will boot into windows and hopefully get fully up to speed.

Cheers very much for your battery observations.

3 of LG HG2's arrived just today, all brand new being at 3.6v. Works great, buuut Reuleaux RX200 STILL shows invalid voltage on the batteries. This I do not like. I'll make a video really soon, but for now I'll just type the voltage of HG2's reported by Wismec:
3.30
3.91
3.70

While actual voltage of all 3 of them is 3.6v. Measured using a multimeter.

With 1st battery being .3v lower than it actually is
2nd battery (the one at the top) .31v higher than it actually is
3rd battery .1v higher than it actually is.

I had the same stuff with batts scavenged from a laptop (not wise, I know) and the battery voltage variations reported by RX200 were even worse.

If they are brand new batteries perhaps a cycle of charge / discharge or two will balance them out.

The RX200 is not near as accurate as the DNA200. My DNA 200 keeps the batteries with in .01 volt of each other. My RX200's are with in .1 of each other. In other words the DNA200 board seems to be 10 times more accurate then the RX200.

Seems to be a reoccurring theme with the 2nd reading consistently reading higher then the other two cells with the RX200 however.
