    After taking up the tcr by 20 at a time I eventually reached 0.0050 so I just used SteamEngine's CSV for Stealvape NiFe30. I'm sure it's close going by taste, ect. Works fine now for me.

    Do you anneal your wire or torch it?  I've noticed as I've "cleaned" the coil multiple times the temp control may have become more accurate. I've gone from around 420F being a good vape to 405F.

     

    Granted, I have inadvertantly switched to a PG heavy liquid (not my usual preference) so that's probably a contributing factor as well, but the amount of heat I'm getting seems to be comparable.

  2. The stealth vape curve seems to be working pretty well with the 425 setting. Just ran out of liquid and did not get burnt hit. Which is really all I care about.

    I may pick up some stealth vape wire just for kicks, but I can't really say that's strictly necessary.

    Thanks for taking the time.

  3. Connections are tight, and does seem to read cold ohms pretty close (.25 vs .23). Even tried the .00400 that zivipf lists as the TCR. Wicking well too. It's not kicking out of TC mode either, I just have to have it cranked way up to get anything decent out of it. Currently at 485F. I even gave the screws & holes a good cleaning before putting the build in.

  4. For some reason my Vapedroid (DNA75) doesn't display the charge current on the charging screen.  I've had other DNA devices that I've configured the same way as I have this one configured, all of which do properly display the USB charge current.  This one just doesn't.  Ideas?  It seems like such a simple thing, but it's really nice knowing the current charge current.

    Back to the original post, (((unstable coil))) i think it was waynio did a small write up a few weeks ago, on how to pre heat and tune stainless, beffor finaly setting it to work,, 100 degrees extra heat to get a decent draw is a text book example of an unstable coil material, because it hasnt been properly heat treated.. the board is proving that it works, its the coils that are haywire..and confusing the board, it only works on one programed csv file at a time, so the coil must be sound,,, ( stainless proves to be critical)



    I have noticed that the TC has gotten more stable as the coil "breaks in"  Can you link me to that post on preparing the SS? Thanks.
  6. Some findings to report:

    Ran all my analyzers, shorted the 510 as best as could with what materials I had (some stranded silver wire balled up and jammed in the 510, used lowest resistance measured). 

    After all that, I've achieved basically the same behavior as the Dicodes reference.

    This concludes another noob post.  Here are the results.

    Mod: MarkBugs Amulet DNA75
    Eliquid: 80% VG
    Atty: Gem 2 (not-really-cloud-bro rta)
    Coil: 28g GeekVape 316L, 7 wraps, 2mm ID, 1mm±0.1 spaced wrapps

    Just for giggles...re-set the mod resistance value at about 0.005...upload to device & check your temp situation. I used a 510 install tool to check mine...https://www.motleymods.com/collections/510-connectors/products/510-connector-installation-tool-box-mod-part-diy-motley-mods-fast-shipping.


    What materials are your 510 made from?  I've got SS threads and a silver plated positive.  I'll give the lower values a try though to test the theory.
  8. Basically I've tried a few different wires (Ti1, NiFe30, and 316L), all of which must be pushed over 500F, upwards of 550.  Honestly, this has always been my complaint about DNA chips; needing to run them so close to the temp limit.  

    I've tried various SS316L TCR profiles (Jaquith, SteamEngine, default).  For the NiFe30 I am using SE's Dicodes wire (which is the wire I have).  

    For reference I am running a NiFe30 build on a Dani Box (Dicodes wire on Dicodes mod) and it behaves as I believe it should.  Warm, delicious, satisfying vape at 450.  Essentially what I'm getting on the DNA at 545.  SS behaves the same way.  What gives?

    I've run the case analyzer, which has helped quite a bit with weird resistance values I was getting (cold ohms were far lower than live ohms or even the initial reading [which was the refinement not being calibrated to the case, which is now fixed]).  

    So really what my question is... where can I find a CSV for NiFe30 or SS (SS preferred) that will give me similar results to the Dicodes TC?

    Thanks.

    It may not have stopped the cloners, but I think the patients made YiHi take less desirable routes going right back to their earlier boards and the lack of real-time power regulation right up to temp limiting by pulse and pause rather than DC.
