SinCo_Sam Posted March 9, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2017 I have a new Lost Vape Triad with the DNA 250 chip. I have installed some premade Clapton coils from Advanced vape supply they are 316L SS on the Steam carve Aromizer plus RTA. I have set my device to the SS 316 profile and set my wattage to 55 and temp to 350 F. I fire my mod and the temp display switches to display âOFFâ. Does this mean that my mod is broken? Please help I am trying to get off the cigarettes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giz_60 Posted March 9, 2017 Report Share Posted March 9, 2017 Not broken at all...very common with SS316L...can you post a screen shot of your profile settings...'Mod' tab & maybe a screen shot of the Device Monitor while firing the device. SS is kinda tricky & your mod & profile settings need to be right! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayneo Posted March 9, 2017 Report Share Posted March 9, 2017 And double check all your connections are tight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retird Posted March 9, 2017 Report Share Posted March 9, 2017 and........since you are using a premade clapton coil you might make sure it is spaced.... (no coil wrap touching another coil wrap).....are you using a single coil? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SinCo_Sam Posted March 10, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2017 giz_60 here is a shot of my SS 316 profile, I would be happy to take a shot of the device monitor screen but what are some of the boxes that I need to check? Wayneo I did make sure that my connections are tight retird I wasn't aware that the coils need to be spaced... I removed the cotton and spaced the coils and it fired in temp control, I rewicked and juiced and spaced them again and again it is the same issue where it displays OFF. I am stumpedEDITED now as I try to fire this device I get the temp protected screen... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giz_60 Posted March 10, 2017 Report Share Posted March 10, 2017 Raise the power setting in your profile...you are limiting the board to only 20 watts...kinda like a governor on an engine...on Device manager...tick off..Power, Power Set, Temperature, Temperature Set, Cold & Live Ohms...

SinCo_Sam Posted March 10, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2017 Let me know if this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giz_60 Posted March 10, 2017 Report Share Posted March 10, 2017 Temp Protected means the device is firing in Temp mode & has hit the temp you have it set at...not an error, but a message.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SinCo_Sam Posted March 10, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2017 The device doesn't fire it displays temp protected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giz_60 Posted March 10, 2017 Report Share Posted March 10, 2017 Only tick the boxes referred to...turn others off & fire it again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SinCo_Sam Posted March 10, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2017 Ok first let me thank you for your help for your help giz_60. I changed my settings in escribe to reflect your suggestions, It seemed to have worked! I have attached images of both the new settings and the device manager. My question now is where the heck did I go wrong??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giz_60 Posted March 10, 2017 Report Share Posted March 10, 2017 Awesome......that looks really good...I believe you had the power in your profile set to low, which was not allowing the board to raise the temp of the wire fast enough, so the board thinks it is non-temp wire & switches to power mode. On my Triade, I have the power set at 250...preheat at 250...punch at 11 for 3 secs...bring the coil up to temp fast & let the board do it's job...in the 'Mod' tab, you set your kanthal power limit lower in case it does shift to power mode, then it won't cook yer lips.. The beauty of these devices is, you can play & adjust to find what works best for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SinCo_Sam Posted March 10, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2017 giz_60 IS it safe to set the power and preheat so high? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madkat Posted March 11, 2017 Report Share Posted March 11, 2017 Also, should he not install the SS316L material? I also have the Triade250 and it only came with the SS316 material, not the SS316L.I was playing around with the 2 materials on different profiles using SS316L coils. the non "L" seem to run 20-40C hotter than what the screen read.coming from the DNA75 and only using SS316L coils, the 250 is epicly accurate and awesome to vape on, provided the correct material is used.

giz_60 Posted March 11, 2017 Report Share Posted March 11, 2017 For the issue we were trying to solve, the stock profile works fine. The 'L' designates the wire as a surgical grade wire. There is a slight difference in the TCR & curve, but very minute...@SinCo_Sam, if you want to, you can load the 316L profile from Steam Engine...this is it here... DNA200-SS_316-SteamEngine.csv...

The beauty of the DNA devices is the ability to fine tune it to ones preferences!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I found the 316L profile more accurate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What ever works and keeps you off the smokes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Load it in the lhs of the materials tab, select it and click the right arrow to put it on the mod, then you can use it in a profile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
