Well, it's supposed to be 5 clicks - same as to lock it. If it's anything like the V1 version, how fast or slow you do it seems to make a difference on how it recognizes it. I just keep clicking until the light blinks.

Yes, and I've found that if I use the top of the fire button it's more responsive.

The difference between V1 and the V2 OLED is mainly the screen and minimum resistance (and the ability to kick it up to 30 watts by clicking 30 times when turning it back on) 1.2 ohms on the V1 and .4 ohms on the V2. On the V1 the light blinks to indicate on and off and on V2 the screen simply lights up or goes off (a little googling reveals). As far as hot goes it would really depend on how hard you're running it. Even though it will fire down to .4 I would think that it's going to run hotter the lower your resistance. Are you using the rba or the stock coils? The only time my old V1 has run hot is when I wrapped a coil that came in at 1.1 ohms. It fired it but it ran pretty warm. No heat issues at 1.2 ohms.

I bought the rba when I bought the unit. I much prefer it. You shouldn't be having heat issues with the stock coils. It's possible to push them too hard with some juices and get a burnt taste but at 1.5 ohms the unit itself shouldn't be overheating unless you are really chain vaping it. The only user manual I've seen is for the V1 not specifically for the V2 OLED. Perhaps the one that came with it is V2 OLED specific. It's possible I suppose that it won't let you unlock it until it cools to whatever temperature. I don't know if the chip displays a temp error or just goes into lock mode and won't let you unlock till it cools. When it is working (before it puts itself into lock mode) can you 5 click it (or however many it takes) off and on? If not the unit may be defective.

Thank you so much you're very knowledgeable the guide was pretty useless since I've turned it down it hasn't locked IL have to wait for my rba to put it as high as I like it I burn through the factory coils in about 3 days some people say they last 3 weeks I don't see that Anyways thanks for you're help
28 Gauge, 7-10 wraps. The coils are a bit of a pita to get into the small deck.
I really like my joyetech egrip works great but it locked how do I unlock it
So I know this is over a year old, but I just had the same issue and was trying to resolve it. Nobody seems to have the answer. But I figured it out in a fit of frustration so maybe the next time someone Googles the issue, they'll stumble across my answer here.
It's not the firing lock. The device still fires. It's the key lock for the up/down menu keys so you can't adjust the wattage or anything.
The truck is the "center" button that you don't even know is there. So the up/down button is a single button with two ends that you use to cycle through menu options.
To turn the actual key lock off, press and hold IN BETWEEN the two butons, right in the center of the joint up/down button. It turns the lock on and off.
