Your last screen shot shows it throttling down from 34 watts to 29.38 watts. With the cell that you are using and firing at 34 watts that looks like there is still a problem. You seem to be on the right track to solving it. Is your adjustment screw on the battery cap at the end of it's adjustment? Meaning do you feel it may need to be holding to battery tighter?

" I noticed it kept climbing in charge when not using it to the point of gaining almost 10% charge within minutes, then taking a couple puffs, it quickly drops back to what it should be." Pretty normal behavior especially when charge is on low side. It is better to note actual standing voltage than to use the estimated percentage as it is just that (estimated). Here is a CSV for battery curve from my DNA250C, save yours first then give at a try if you want. It may be the same as yours or maybe different. Battery curve only changes percentages and battery bar, doesn't change how the mod works. DNA100C battery curve.csv

Here's a DNA100C with 40T firing at 45 watts, this voltage drop appears as expected.

For what ever reason the board isn't receiving enough power from the cell (amps) do to a bad connection, could be cell fitment, bad solder joint, ect Use EScribe's Device Monitor to see your voltage drop while firing. Here is one of mine that has a poor battery to board connection. The voltage drops to 3.37 volts when fired at 45 watts. If it drops to soft cell cutoff of 2.75 volts it will throttle down the wattage. Check yours with Device Monitor.

The correct setting would be 18650 and cell soft cut off at 2.75 volts (default)

I would be looking to the battery cap for a poor connection. Try cleaning the groves on the battery cap and the groves on the mod for the cap with a cotton swab and alcohol. Does that screw adjustment on the battery cap come apart? Clean it's threads as well. Does the battery fit tight enough in the mod when the cap is installed?

The pinout is the only diagram that I have access to.

Have you tried another cable? Might be caused by dirty USB port on mod, lint from pocket, ect.

I have been mixing my own liquid for over 12 years now. I use to use sorbitol for sweetner but because of how fast it would gunk up my coils I switched to ethyl malto. You might want to research about using sucralose.

Yes, you got it. Use Device Monitor in EScribe to see it live. Be sure to check the "Power" and "Power Set: boxes.

After charging, about 8 hits on it after charging completed. Can you post a screen shot of Device Monitor with yours when problem is occurring?

No problems here, I fired it more 10 times, the last 5 without air. The last three short ones was to catch the voltage reading.

Yes, be worried. Try here: https://support.svsupport.co.uk/
