I've checked the earth wire, still tight.

how do you get the battery tray out?

out and about I use a Windows printed reference style DNA200 and aromamizer.
And dotted around the house are a mixture of DNA200s with more aromamizers and a couple of Tesla Invaders with Aeronauts.
Pretty much everything else I've bought over the last couple of years is rarely used.

The 510 on the ali one is tight and flush, the printed reference styled one had slipped once but that was more my torque wrench fingers

Checked the internal res, Rolo was 0.01 up from 0.004, but really lagging set at that.

SMY wouldn't read so I assume it's under 0.005?.
Ad's mods were 0.011 and 0.009, both up a fraction but the atomiser was still unstable between puffs.
Seems as if it's sleeping and not recognising the tc material?

Time to check out FT for some new decks and go back to plain coils for a while.

not so infallible dna200s? I've been using...
2yr old SMY... needs a new battery
Rolo... running new-ish vtc5s
Windows printed 900mah
Another Windows 900mah in an ally case.

If its the mods, maybe the 510s are starting to wear or there is some degradation in the solder or wiring? don't know.

Seems that when they went to the SP updates things went a little haywire. imo Evolve reduced the base resistance sensitivity when they chose to mellow power delivery to improve the quality of SS settings.
Unfortunately once the new firmware was installed it was not possible to uninstall some of the changes. Bit of a sneaky nanny update in with rush to comply with the US TPD.

I bitched and moaned like a broken record for a while but I'd say that it fell on deaf ears or the hard-core just had their heads firmly in the sand.
But it also seemed to sort itself out after a while, I adapted.


What I haven't done is recheck the internal resistance.... wheres my copper bolt. lol

I've been using Aromamisers for about 10 months now, the vape they give suits me fine. I have 4 on the go, three flavours and a spare for when one needs a de-coke.
I use 3 DNA200s, latest update SP 2-5? at 50w/205*C.
Decks are built with spaced 2.5mm 316 claptons 0.45 x 0.16 wrap for 0.15ohm  and cotton bacon. Used the same spools of wire for the coils since I started on the aromamizers.

They have all gone off, one by one, the resistance has become unstable and appears to fluctuate between 0.13-0.15.
All the atties vape as expected, then either under limit or throw in random cotton incinerators.

Cleaned the 510s male and female, stripped the decks down, replaced the screws, checked and reloaded profiles on Escribe.
Tried different wires, different resistance coils.
Wicks have been worked down to a fine art and if anything give a rich bubbly vape.

On an off-chance I put one on my old Evic mini which has NEVER worked with TC and it vapes fine, holds 0.15ohms, TC cuts in, no burning cotton or overheated coils...which ever.

Time to order new decks or are my mods playing up? Odd that they are all going one at a time but who knows?

Perhaps its just my punishment for being smug about having no vape mail since February?

I think its simply a case of finding a few juices and an atomiser I'm happy with.

That and a healthy dose of scepticism when the next all singing and dancing atomiser comes out.

it's a damned shame that the V2 Aeronaut is 24mm, it covers pretty much any kind of single coil build and has a squonk pin.
there are a few $15 clones so there is no need to spend 50 notes on an original.

BF pin aside..tbh I think 'future proofing' a cheap purchase by having to have it BF ready is limiting.
Not that there is a great choice of good single coil drippers to start with.
