Gaur - 21, Mediocre issues or Chip Shortage?

Mediocre_Remedial · February 19, 2025, 7:16pm

True, but there is no such software to download and run on the computer. They totally removed all the update software from their website, the only one they have up is for the vandy pulse mod. I can’t even find the update second hand from another website.

I just really don’t understand why they would remove all the updates for all of their mods. I emailed them yesterday asking where the firmware update is, haven’t heard back though. It doesn’t make sense to me why you would cut support of your product after just a few years. It’s really frustrating.

@Rocky02852 could you move this discussion to another thread like “guar 21” please? My apologies, I didn’t intend for this to derail the topic… I initially just wanted to post about the receipt of my mod.

maybe they didn’t remove it
have you considered there is no update to the guar 21 firmware?

Mediocre_Remedial · February 19, 2025, 7:26pm

Okay… I found the answer. They just completely removed those functionalities, yet still advertise them.

see?
you got the improved version everythings fine

I know they had a chip shortage back in 2021 and removed bluetooth and the other weird functions when I got my first gaur 21…
After that I just ordered non-bluetooth version

Thank you! I didn’t want to derail the vape mail thread

Mediocre_Remedial · February 19, 2025, 9:13pm

They say it’s improved but don’t say how…

LOL they wouldn’t have that problem if they would just go back to making good old fashioned mechs. You know the non- Bluetooth versions.

Rocky02852 · February 19, 2025, 9:22pm

Oh, you didn’t get the free bag of Chips with your order??

Mediocre_Remedial · February 19, 2025, 9:24pm

I’ve never used a mech, I started vaping after those were phased out for regulated mods. It’s really cool though how people customized and made everything.

Now that I think of it, It’s kind of funny how vaping has evolved. It went from MTL devices like cig-a-likes and e-go sticks, then big mods and sub ohm became popular, and now it’s back to MTL devices like pods and disposables. I wonder if it will ever come back to big mods and sub ohm being popular? I hope so.

I’m really trying to cut out stuff like that from my diet, but man I am still salty that that they discontinued the flamin hot dill picker flavor. It was the only lays I would buy. Haven’t bought their products since those disappeared.

Mediocre_Remedial · February 19, 2025, 9:28pm

I’m not sure if this was supposed to be a pun, but if so, it only now just hit me. Lol

warkwarth · February 19, 2025, 9:36pm

it’s not a pun vandy vape said they were out of chips
so they upgraded your mod and your being very ungrateful

big_vape · February 19, 2025, 9:37pm

Highly overrated, and I truly don’t know anyone that uses them longterm.

M’ok. Long ago, I swear it was my Gaur you could enable or hide features IIRC. It might have been bluetooth. Had the coolest mottled texture.

Mechs are fun to use it’s like Russian roulette every time you vape. hmmm will today be the day my mech explodes and blows my face off? LMAO I was shopping for new mods the other day everything new has funky led lights and Bluetooth and speakers. I should just go back to building DIY mods.
