ModBox Posted April 17, 2018 Report Share Posted April 17, 2018 I have a Mad Modder Mod with DNA 250C chip with 4s lipo. My build is Lightning Vapes SS316L 2 core fused clapton 26g/36g 8 wraps non spaced 3.5mm id. Cold ohms is .34 and live ohms is .27. I cannot get tcr to work in SS316 mode. I always get temp protect message. Also, when I play replay, I get check atty message. What do I need to do to get these modes to work? I have tried different atomizers as well with no luck.

retird Posted April 17, 2018 Report Share Posted April 17, 2018 Maybe a hot spot, loose connection, and try spacing the coil... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ModBox Posted April 17, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2018 No hot spots. Cranked on post screws. Could the wire be the issue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's possible I've not seen it or do I recall any similar posts..... I really don't know much about those "exotic coils" so help may come from those who do..... only thought now is TCR, atty, or coil issue.... he might try a simple coil in the atty and see if it goes with that one....

ModBox Posted April 18, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2018 I'll try a simple build possibly tomorrow and see what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayneo Posted April 18, 2018 Report Share Posted April 18, 2018 @ModBox Did you have those numbers backwards? You never did say what atty you're using, but anyway, you might just try checking the 510 pin is tight as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ModBox Posted April 18, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2018 @Wayneo those numbers were from the device monitor. I am using The Hive RTA by CCI. I also tried the Icon RDA by Vandy Vape with no luck. I tore the Hive completely apart and gave it a good cleaning a few weeks ago. Great tank by the way. I need to rewick it. I'll try playing with it unwicked to make sure no hot spots again. I'll try a simple build on the Icon and see if that helps any. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ModBox Posted April 18, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2018 I have tried a simple 8 wrap 3.5mm id ss316l with no luck. Still get temp protect in tcr. I tried spacing the fused clapton coils with the same results. Think I will source some different ss316 wire and give that a try. But may have to send this mod back and let him take a look at it.

Wayneo Posted April 18, 2018 Report Share Posted April 18, 2018 Are you locking the resistance of that coil? If so, unlock it. I can see it rising on the live ohms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ModBox Posted April 18, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2018 I just went through tcr modes and these coils will fire on Nickel 200 and Titanium. I do not get temp protect message in those 2 modes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ModBox Posted April 18, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2018 Not locking ohms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I can think is to re read the resistance of the cold coil in the proper mode. Using Ni or Ti with SS can be scorchingly hot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pphish Posted April 18, 2018 Report Share Posted April 18, 2018 What's the internal resistance if your mod set to? I feel that is the most likely culprit, or is it reading ohm correctly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ModBox Posted April 18, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2018 I.R. is .004 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ModBox Posted April 18, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2018 I was discussing this with the mod maker. He said to return it to him. He just got off the phone with evolv. The anodizing on the 510 is causing a ground issue. Good guy Mad Modder is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iambyrdman Posted April 19, 2018 Report Share Posted April 19, 2018 I'm having what may be the same problem. Replay almost never works and when it does it fails. SS profile doesn't work but Ni200 and Ti do with 316L wire. My 510 is a Black Varitube V2. Would the black coating cause the same grounding problem for an Evolv chip? I had to use a common ground instead of the output's ground for the 520 and I thought that may be My problem but maybe not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retird Posted April 19, 2018 Report Share Posted April 19, 2018 The Black coating at the point of ground can cause problems and should be removed... A solid ground is necessary for proper operation........ Any coating on the threads of the 510 connector should also be removed to assure a good ground to the atty....

iambyrdman Posted April 19, 2018 Report Share Posted April 19, 2018 Damn! Sure enough. I just scraped a little of the black off and 316L works on first test. No temp protect warning anyway... Replay didn't work first try. So I'm getting closer.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
