  1. I maybe be off base but it seems with most pre-built -- they tend to want to be used at cooler temps to be stable. As the previous poster suggested the silicon seal is probably the culprit.  That being said -- not much Kanger or any of the others can do if they want to keep the cost of those down.  Anytime you are wanting to go that big on the smoke -- build your own.  I have a kanger sub-tank with the RBA that works great.  It still fluctuates a bit but that is because I have a dual coil set up at .8 ohms in such a tiny space.  So the heating expands the small screws that anchor it.  But I have also been using it for a month and the cotton and the coil are still really clean.  It is nothing fancy on the coiling either.  It seems for most -- the simple work the best.  BTW -- I only pump at most 22 watts through that RBA.  I only put about 18 through the .5 ohm prebuilts.  It is not competition vapor -- but then again the subtanks are not meant to be.

    I hope my experience helps.

  2. Well the NEC usb controller we have came with the hardware on the computers or motherboards we purchased.  His gigabyte board is discontinued and the laptop I have is also a discontinued product.  You might have the best luck purchasing his motherboard model 890FXA-UD5 used online.  They are out of stock on Newegg.com so I am pretty sure they are going to be tough to find any other way.  These boards and controllers were released at the beginning days of usb 3.0.  So the controller is probably not even used now as it was probably found to have compatibility issues.  A lot of the early usb 3.0 controllers did.(they tended not to be backward compatible with all usb 2.0 devices.)

    Keep in mind this is still just a guess on my part -- albeit a marginally educated one.

  3. It is either a software compatibility issue with software I have on the system or a hardware conflict with system.  I have gotten the program to work on an old xp Desktop.  I can't get the board to communicate with that system, but the software does not sit and spin.  I can actually click and do all the drop down menus.

    So with my win 8.1 laptop -- it is probably a software compatibility issue with something I have installed.  That is what I am leaning to.

  4. I downloaded what was linked on this thread: https://forum.evolvapor.com/topic/65933-topic/

    Unfortunately it does the same thing.  The screen pops up and then the little windows cirlcle sits and spins.

    I am hoping that this is the same version and does not have the time out.  Keep in mind -- I do have connection.  The proxies are just not allowing the two way.  I am not sure if that matters with how you have it coded.

    But still no worky at this time.

    The updater is already on a background thread. Which is why this is odd to me.
    Feklar, odd question but, do your EScribe tabs have left/right scroll arrows on the right by any chance? I found a "slows down massively" case involving that yesterday.
    That said, we ought to have timeouts. I will add a 60 second timeout to the next version, so we'll see if that's the problem. Need to find a proxy to test with as well. :)



    No -- No scrolls from left to right.  I have attached a snipping of the screen for your review.  Looks normal except unable to use anything. eScribe.png


    I hope the above helps.

    Feklar, if you go to "Options" in Escribe and un-check "automatically check for updates" that would make it work. But of course you have to have the software launched to do that...

    We should add a timeout if it can't communicate with the server after 15 seconds or something. Good catch, onto the "to do" list. 



    Yeah -- it will just sit and spin and will not let you make any selections.  So yes a timeout would be great.  I get all the files manually but those Proxies/Firewalls are not going to allow most 2 way communication.

    Anyway thanks.
