  1. @ChunkyButt200 I have not tried re-flashing firmware, I'll attempt that shortly and see if anything changes. I also tried contacting Lost Vape two days ago and have not heard back yet, I suppose I'll send Evolv a ticket as well. I just noticed more weirdness with my temperature readings... it's claiming my room temp is 110f, which is obviously not correct. I can also watch my board temp rise and fall while it's charging, but my room temp is rock solid at exactly 110 and never changes. That's not a good sign, is it? Thank you for all your help btw!
  2. Here is my unhappy looking graph: My voltage is rolling consistently... and those spikes are new, they weren't there the last time I looked. In this screenshot, my batteries are right at 4.0v, but this behavior is identical no matter what their charge level is (last time I hooked it up to eScribe they were around 3.5v). I know the voltage rolls like this when it's plugged into the wall too, as I can read the fluctuations straight from the device's screen. It used to charge at 1 amp while connected to my PC and 2 amps when connected to my wall charger, with steady voltage. Now it reads around 4.2v and .5 amps no matter what it's connected to... and I have verified that my charger, cable, wall socket and batteries themselves are not the source of any of these problems. One thing you mentioned that I haven't experimented with yet is the temperature cutoff... I did run the 'case analyzer' when I first got the device, though I'm still not very knowledgeable about that feature.
  3. I am experiencing this exact same issue. I have a Paranormal 167 / DNA 250 and it was working perfectly, but now will only charge between .54 and .59 amps. I have also noticed some battery shenanigans like yours, where my mod tells me my (brand new) 18650 batteries are ~70% full, but my external charger reads them at 4.2v, I have also vaped until my batteries are down to 30-40%, then charged them internally (at around .59 amps) for a while until they read around 70%... and then I vape for a minute or two and the battery indicator will jump up to almost 100%. Using eScribe, I have also noticed some behavior that seems linked to the low amperage issue. I have seen people suggest that the mod compensates for voltage sag by lowering the amperage... but those people were also suggesting that the voltage sag was coming from the charging cable, which is NOT the case for me. When monitoring 'USB Voltage' in eScribe while connected to my PC, I can see the voltage rise and fall between 5.0v and 4.27v every few seconds, with matching dips in the amperage... but it still never rises above .59 amps. I'm confused and unhappy, because the reliable internal charger was a big reason why I bought this mod. The chip also forgets your coil when you remove the batteries to externally charge them, which can cause loads of TC problems... and TC is the other big reason I bought the mod. I apologize for not attaching eScribe screenshots, but this issue has been posted about before (with no solutions?) and all of my information would just look identical to theirs.
