Hohm Slice (By Hohm Tech)

@Sprint
Let me see if I got this right
For TC on kanthal
Atty off
Press Fire button
Then connect atty
Ensure that tc auto mode is off
Go into xxx mode
Set FSK to 10% to start and then increase from there till u find sweet spot
 
Just by the by dunno if this will help
The battery door loose rattle I managed to eliminate by manipulating the material pull strip for the battery.
I found if I push it down flat and into mod on right side battery door sits tight
 
You have it right bar one exception, use Kanthal mode not xXx. I know they say use xXx mode but i never got it to work that way only in Kanthal mode did it work.
 
Common wisdom is never lock resistance on this mod... haven't so far and no issues here.
 
@Sprint thanks for all the advice
Got it working great on billow v2.5 dual kanthal coils
Settled of FSK curve of 25%, 230 C and 40 watts
Vapes like a dream
Tried with both resistance lock and unlock and there wasn't a difference

Use xxx mode for if you running claptons or and other dodgy wire. I noticed TC kanthal mode on claptons doesnt work well. Then switch to xxx

@Blends Of Distinction
This device intrigues me
Especially that it can do temp control on Kanthal

How is that vape you described above compared to say the exact same atty and coil and juice but using Power mode - at say 40W ? Does that get too hot?

I know you didn't address me but I'm going to chime in here. Using TC Kanthal it works and feels exactly like TC on SS. for instance when you take a pull and your cotton cannot keep up with wicking then the power drops off immediately saving you from a hot or dry hit.

Really impressive that Hohm Tech did the impossible with TC.

Ok but lets take this a bit further @Sprint - and thanks for chiming in

Suppose at 40W there was no problem of a dry hit when using normal power mode. Ie the coil and wicking was fine for the length of drags one does. Then my question would be how different would the vape be using temp control? Surely it should be the same if the temp it is set to is the same as the temp it would naturally get to under power mode?

And another comment. If temp control is used as you said to prevent a dry hit - surely then one doesnt have the "optimal" coil/wick combo in there?

It just seems that with temp control its easy to throw in any coil and run it without dry hits but that doesnt mean one is necessarily always getting the best possible vape out of that coil?

Maybe I am misunderstanding something and it probably is owing to my lack of experimentation with TC.
 
@Sprint..if you on a tank my guess wud be yes but not so much on a dripper..this way u know when to reload

i also love flavours that need a consistent temp like milkshakes and coconut and i love kanthal for dual coils cos less wraps for higher resistance. this mod really works and is a dream...just need hohmtech to give a manual on fsk rather than their "its like vodoo" video for the fsk setting

I've observed the following. With the TC enabled regardless of Kanthal, nickel or SS you can arrive at as hot a vape as 40w will reach in power mode or TC mode.

The reason I don't use TC is simple. I don't like instant ramp up and one consistent temp. I prefer how it feels when it ramps slower and builds up.

Another thing and this is the main one for me... I like to sometimes boil the liquid and then pull a very saturated flavourful hit into my mouth then sort of squash my cheeks in so the vapor coats my mouth and I get intense flavor without having to inhale anything.

You can't do that in TC mode because the mod keeps the coil from boiling until you take a pull where the air coming in over the cools makes the power spring to life.

In a nutshell TC for me doesn't work for mouth to lung hits and it is too mono dimensional for my tastes.

I will use it though if I want to drain every last drop before a liquid change without worrying about a dry hit.

This resonated with me
And for this I am referring to a slow long restricted lung hit.

Interesting what you say about the MTL. Thanks @Sprint

With my style of vaping TC helps a lot
I take very long lung hits so tend to draw for 4 seconds plus. I also tend to chain vape so will have five or six of these long draws with very little pause in between. When doing this in power mode I find that my tank and juice gets friggin hot and the more Vapes I take the hotter it gets and the flavor starts to drop off (coil getting dry and heat cooking juice)
With TC mode I can draw as long as i like and the vape gets to a certain temp point and stays there. Using TC mode with my style of vape helps a lot. With that said you also have to get the TC mode right for your style of vaping. Some people want to set watts very high and hit coil hard at the outset and have the temp mode cut it to control it. I don't like doing it that way because the vape almost reverberates like on/off/on/off. I prefer to set my watts lower and have the TC mode step in when things get to hot or the coils starts to dry out.
The art of getting watts/temp right takes a lot of fiddling.
On the hohm slice you now have a third dimension to now factor in Watts/temp/FSK curve when using kanthal so now u gotta juggle between the three
I have almost got it right

Just on another point using TC mode on coils and mods that use a TCR value can also be very different from mod to mod.
Most times the TCR profiles are not correct and the vape in TC is just plain crap. If you look at the experienced DNA guys you will see that they set their TCR points differently from most standard .csv config files.
What is remarkable here is that the home slice doesn't use that technology it has its own Voodo stuff :) but I will say this TC control on this mod is absolutely amazing. It's smooth and just works it makes TCR TC Mode look stupid

Thanks @Blends Of Distinction
Sorry for late response
That was very well explained in an easy to understand manner. Perfect. Understand you spot on
Now i need to try a toot on your Slice when we meet up next... ;-)
Sounds great.

Loving this mod All thanks to @KieranD and @capetocuba

There's a few improvements on these ones since they are the latest. Some of the improvements on these are:

1. Casing has been improved
2. Comes with latest firmware (all previous Slices had original firmware this is shipped with FSK 1.2.3)
3. All come with the new fire button and wide platform for good clicky feel
4. Color coating is now baked for 4 days versus 2 (makes for harder color shell)

I'm vapeing at 48.6w .60ohm at490f on kanthal heads on my clieto. The vape is warm and thick,just a superior vape than on a regular device imo. I love this mod!

Thanks @kev mac , this mod intrigues me
Not helping my motto that i dont really need more mods !
Maybe i do really need this one

Damn! Now I need to upgrade mine! LOL. @daniel craig Post a pic of the front so the improved button design can be envied by all of us with the OLD model?

Cheers!
