A couple of questions: Did you say you canā€™t control the wattage in TC mode? Also, a friend of mine said he noticed a bit of battery drain compared to other single 21700 mods. Did you? Regardless, he still carries it because he likes the looks.

That is correct, you can not set wattage in TC mode. I donā€™t notice any difference in battery usage. I havenā€™t tried to test the battery life against any other however.

Battery drain is ok on mine. Longer using 40T than the Odin 100 is but the Aegis beats it.

No wattage control in TC mode at all. Not sure what it is firing at but is too high for my MTL RTAā€™s.

Well, my Odin 100 doesnā€™t seem too bad actually soā€¦okay. The Aegis Max youā€™re referring to?

Iā€™ve had that problem, too, with boards that determine your watts and firing too high. Adjusting the temp is not a viable solution to that. Iā€™m not sure how firmware actually determines your power because resistance alone is not sufficient. You could have a single wire at 0.6 ohms and an MTL Clapton at 0.6 ohms and the Clapton will handle the higher power better. Vic said the Grus was conservative in TC mode for Lost Vape but he was referring to the ā€œcut offā€ before your wick gets burned. He said his wick was still saturated when reaching cut off.

I noticed the button placements on the Grus match up with the buttons on my Centaurus. Wonder if anyone has tried popping in a DNA 75c board into their Grus. It would make an awesome DNA mod IMO. If I had 75C board Iā€™d try it.

I like how yā€™all are thinking. I have a DNA 75 but not the C. I might have to go see how much I can get one for. I thoroughly liked the setup and how easy it will (should) be.

@Lostmarbles are you gonna do it?

yeah Dan, I think I will. Might have to wait until after the holidays though. I have two Grus mods one that works well and one that is underpowered. Need the 75C board and a little bit of silicone covered wires of the proper gauge and Iā€™ll be ready to start modding. I believe the board runs about $60 - $70 but maybe thereā€™s a sale.

@lambu you, my friend are awesome!

Ya, I think I will too. I am sure I have the proper wire and I can send you some. You wonā€™t need much unless your gonna build some more mods.

Thanks Dan, thatā€™s very generous of you to offer. I think my local hardware store has some. If not, I may just order some from whereever I get the board from. I appreciate the offer my friend.
