Continuing the discussion from TC Mode - X Cube 2 & Kanger Subtank :
To put it bluntly… My experience with the Cube 2 has been tramatic. This mod is overly technical. Sure you suppose to be able to dial in any wire for tc which would be good if the mod responds as it should. It’s definitely not reading accurately. Here’s some examples… note the resistance. BTW, the cube isn’t suppose to read .05 ohms.
Okay… are all my other mods reading the wrong resistance? But this is just the beginning of my saga as to why I say it’s too technical. The app is a piece of shit. I spent 12hrs trying to get Ti support and another 8 hrs trying to not get dry hits. Supposedly the TCoR for Ti is .00350 if I’m wrong please correct me. If you use a dual Ti coil set up it should be halved… .00175. This setting is dry hit city on the Cube 2 with a dual Ti setup that I am using. On the the second day I through all that I thought was right out of the window and starting using random inputs. I finally reached a point where I could vape with no dry hits and Temp protect didn’t kick in, in .25 seconds. Here is where the Cube 2 works with a dual Ti coil set up.
I must admit, it’s vaping beautifully now. It only took 2 days to set it up. If you’re not TC savvy, which I thought I was… stick to singles or try this set up if you don’t have success with duals on your own. Was this a royal PITA? Yes. But the way it’s vaping now… it was worth it.
Even with all the BS I went through I still recommend this setup. I think with more updates the bugs will be worked out. This is the most advanced vaping system on the market, IMO.
If you decide to venture in the “Valley of SMOK”… here’s a link to the build tutorial I posted a few days ago.

If you were blindfold and took a toke from this tank you would say… It’s a dripper. Tanks has arrived people. This tank is the best I own. Some say it’s hard to build but I don’t think they understand the innovations SMOK has made on this tank. Very easy to build and wick. Four large juice that could wick molasses.

It has a 2 post design… Like the Crown Tank it has raised shoulders on the post. All you do is back the screw out a bit and insert the wires and tighten. It’s de…

Thanks for that. Mine’s in the mail so I know what to expect. I was told I cannot get the Ti option anyway because I have no smartphone.

Nah, I have bluetooth on my Mac mini though, is that good enough?

I don’t think the app works on those

Perhaps you can use a friends phone to activate it - it can be accessed directly on the device afterwards…

That’s a good idea, so now I have to find some friends

Strange how they require a smart phone or tab to unlock titanium… also strange how they make you unlock it to begin with. I mean … it’s only 49 cents… They should have just included it. Kind of bugs me when companies do that. The x cube is capable of titanium, so why pay to use something that’s already there? Kind of like how some video games make you pay to unlock stuff that’s already in the game.
Maybe someone will come out with firmware that will unlock titanium automatically.

Yes, to me it makes no sense at all. Perhaps it’s a sort of proof of concept or something?

it’s only 49 cents.
Multiplied by God knows how many buyers still adds up to a truckload of money. I wouldn’t turn it down!
Ah well…
