That's very interesting. When this happens, do you have it charging from USB? If so, when updating firmware, which version are you updating it to? (Tools->Diagnostics->Show Diagnostic Information) Have you tried the firmware update included with EScribe Service Pack 69 yet, or are you running an earlier EScribe (Help->About)? Also, have you tried a hardware reboot on the device? (Remove the pod and disconnect from USB. Then hold the Fire button until it reboots. It should take about 10-15 seconds.) Thanks! God bless.

SP69 adds trace recording (showing the actual puff waveforms... well, a 8 Hz version of them). If you sync your puffs with ECigStats, what do you get for the puffs that say Fill Pod? Could you click "Download Puff" for the particular puffs and attach the CSV files here? Thanks!

@John R: Thanks! I've fixed it.

I've posted SP69. It corrects one possible cause of Fill Pod messages on Oxva Pro 2 DNA, which could occur if Replay is activated on the first puff after connecting a pod. It also adds puff trace recording support. This records Power, Live Ohms, and Battery Voltage for puffs sent to ECigStats, so, you no longer have to be connected to USB to see your puff trace. Let me know how it works for you. Enjoy

This version also adds puff trace recording to Oxva. You can view puff traces on ECigStats. It records Power, Live Ohms, and Battery Voltage. (We're hoping to use this recording to see how effective the Fill Pod change is. That said, it's also a nice feature -- you don't have to be connected to USB any more to get a recording of your puffs!) Definitely let us know how it works for you!

This was my concern about porting to GTK 3. The C# bindings have been in beta forever (effectively abandonware), so each distribution is likely to have a different version with different functions. Give this a try: https://downloads.evolvapor.com/SetupEScribe2_SP69_INT.run I changed how I register for the monitors changed event. I'll bet you'll have some other error, but it should take care of that one. My version of GTK Sharp 3, on Mint, is 2.99.3-4. What does it list as your version? Also, what's the specific OS version, etc.? I've not used Arch Linux before, but certainly could give it a try in a virtual machine. Thanks! God bless. James

I've ported Linux EScribe SP68 from GTK 2 to GTK 3. Some newer systems didn't have gtk-sharp2 easily available, so this should make those systems usable. *This is still a test version*, but if you'd like to try it, let me know what bugs you run into! https://downloads.evolvapor.com/SetupEScribe2_SP68_INT_GTK_Test1.run The bugs I've found so far are: (1) Multiline labels such as in Atomizer Analyzer don't lay out correctly. (2) Text fields with escape codes (such as Format and Label on Small Screen Pod devices) don't save properly. (3) Occasionally, dialog boxes are misaligned relative to the window that is showing them. Enjoy God bless. James

By any chance, is there a contact pin on your Oxva that is stuck down? We saw that once -- it caused poor electrical contact -- and because the electrical current is higher on the Stainless pods, the power losses from poor electrical contact are higher.

That's only 19% over cold, so it shouldn't be hitting any limits. I see you're using 1W extra -- do you find the coils taste about the same at that level? You still have headroom to increase it if need be.

Would you mind checking Cold Ohms and Live Ohms as well for the recording? It only has Power right now, from which I can't make a huge number of conclusions. (It only records the columns you have checked in Device Monitor, plus time.) Is your Power Setpoint 18 in all of these? (It's not recorded.) I do notice in the "Worst Mod" cases, the power is clearly declining, which suggests it is hitting a limit of some kind, but hard to tell only from that. What will be interesting to see is what the percentage difference is from Cold Ohms to Live Ohms in the "Good" case. That'd tell you how close you are to the "edge" (24% for the Stainless coils at current presets). Thanks!

I've posted SP68. It improves the battery meter accuracy and stability on Oxva Pro 2 DNA. (For Oxva Pro 2 DNA, it also adds Battery Capacity and Battery Cycles tracking to Device Monitor. After each full charge/discharge cycle these will update.)

I've posted SP68 for Linux, which gives the Oxva Pro 2 DNA a more accurate battery meter and some charge state estimation support.

@franticseven, the device is set to turn off automatically if idle for 130,000 seconds (about a day and a half). It doesn't have to be awakened by USB -- holding the fire button for a few seconds wakes it up again. The device has pretty decent idle current before it turns off, and so should not drain more than a few percent during this time, whether or not the pod is connected. It should remember Replay coming out of idle but not turn-off, unless something has caused the pod to lose contact during that time. It looks like your power output is actually higher on the Stainless coil. What does the trace look like in Device Monitor with the Stainless coil when puffing, Power and Live Ohms? It looks like you're rising about 21% on puffs, so it shouldn't be hitting a limit.

Hmm. I think we just did it because it didn't fit on the screen. Do you need fractional wattage at 10W and above, or would below that do the job? Is this for ordinary vaping (a perceptible difference etc.), or is this for some research-related use? Thanks! God bless. James
