Re: Vandyvape pulseII squonk

[bombastinator2]

I’ve got a pulse2 and it does seem like peak squonk. I’m constantly afraid I’ll cross thread the thing though. I’m familiar with liquid tight screw fittings and the thing seems real shallow to me. Liquid tight screw fittings do work though if you’re careful with them. Lately I’ve seen a small amount of liquid around the hole when refilling. I’m worried the hole is leaking. Does this happen?

Another issue is the TC is weird. I wrap my own coils and I want accurate temp control. How do I arrange that? Can I?

Which coil material are you using?

I've generally heard the TC is anywhere between "tolerable" and "pretty good" on these, so if it's not working maybe try one of the other TC materials to see if that profile is better?

I'm not really sure what to suggest except from hoping they release a firmware update. They released several for the Pulse 80W.

A home made SS oversized 10 wrap for about 1.2ohm. So big it only just fits. I used a medium sized torx driver for a mandrel. 1mm wire. I didn’t want it to break for a while. If you want to not subohm with 1mm wire you’ve got to use a lot of it. I dont remember the stainless type. I lost the spool, so it’s just a snangle. One of the downsides of thick wire. It’s very non standard.

I remember there being two kinds of TC for stainless though depending on the type used and this doesn’t have a setting for that which I can find. It does have a setting to set the resistance, but I don’t know what I need.
My solution so far is just use watts and keep the thing really wet so it never goes over temp.

Had to look into this some @bombastinator2, and found out that the TCR for the TC modes is adjustable. But I can't find a manual to say how.

But if the mod has Bluetooth you can supposedly set things up with the app.

Oh, and if you're using round wire I've found SS430 to be a good option.

 

[bombastinator2]

I never looked to see if it is Bluetooth controlled or not. I’ll have to check that out. Not finding an app for vandyvape or pulse so I suspect not. Ss430 is doable though

Found it for you, it's listed as "vandy" on Google play store which I had to find by doing a Google search. I've no ideas if there's an iOS version.

I did have a look though @bombastinator2, but it says it's not compatible with my Note 10 OS.

 

[bombastinator2]

Ah. I’ve got an iPhone. There’s nothing in the play store at all

 

[Mordacai]

That certainly makes things more awkward.

It doesn't really matter, VV shut the servers down so the app no longer works.
