06 Extended Functions Menu
Additional Explanation to several menu items, page 1
The following explanations are for a few items which are not self explanatory or which have inter-
dependencies with other parameters or functions.
The selection of the correct wire-temperature-coefficient is very important for
Temperature Controlled Vaping.
NOTE: that the coefficient of stainless steel can vary depending on alloy
composition, manufacturer and production lot. For Titanium the coefficient values
also vary significantly.
The TempCof item is present, even if the operation mode is not set to Temperature
Controlled Vaping.
The Power Limit has an effect on several functions of the mod:
- Power Limit defines the range of the power selectable in the main menu. As stated
before in the main menu, the limit value sets the roll-over point of the “Power Up”
and “Power Down.” The power limitation makes sense especially in the standard
vaping mode as it helps prevent coil breaks when using small atomizers and small
coils.
- Power Limit sets the power during the boost-phase in Power Boost mode.
All dicodes devices allow the user to set the minimum discharge level of the battery
between 2.5V and 3.0V (single battery, older models up to 3.5V). On the 2380 with
the use of two batteries, the discharge level can be set between 6.2 to 6.8V. Almost
all batteries specify a minimum discharge level of 2.5V to 2.7V. Since the voltage of a
fully charged battery can quickly drop to 3.7V, the protect your device the minimum
power level allowed with two batteries installed is 6.2V. If the user is unsure of the
minimum discharge level of their battery the level should be set to 2.7V when using
one battery or 6.4V when using two batteries.
The “selected voltage” is the voltage at the poles of the battery when current is
drained from it (the current drained depends on the power at the coil). In contrast to
other tube and box mods on the market—which stop operation at 3.4V
(or 7.0V)—the lower discharge level on dicodes mods lead to better battery utilization
(about 20% better).
The “time to automatic power off” of the mod can be set from 1 minute to 60 minutes.
For best battery use we recommend selecting 2 or 5 minutes in conjunction with
immediate vaping enabled (”OnClick”=0). With this combination, if the button is
accidentally pressed AND held, it’s possible that the mod will exceed the maximum
vape time (error 7), the device will auto power off, then immediately turn on and so
forth in an endless loop.
To prevent this scenario, the mod has a built in safety feature: If “OnClicks”<2 AND
Error 7 (TimeOut) happens AND the mod has gone through an auto-power-off, the
mod can only be switched on by clicking the button 5 times.
As indicated, the OnClick range is from 0 (immediate vape) to 5. Note that the mod
is always on after the first click, and if the selected number of clicks is not made,
the device shuts itself off.
