I followed a comment on Hohmtech's Slice & Hohmtech breakdown video, his name is "William Yang" look for his comment he has step by step instructions.So, everyone is simply able to update the FW on their slice using the instructions on the HT site? When I tried on my Windos 8 laptop, the computer would never recognize my Slice...
How about the Kayfun v5 clone? Eciggity has the Tobeco one, I got it in black, airflow is smooth. I also got the SJMY clone from 3fvape there is a thread about the clones on ECF.
I've done it on 7 and 10. I skipped 8 never had it personally. It should work. Maybe try to run as administer or run in Windows 7 capability mode?So, everyone is simply able to update the FW on their slice using the instructions on the HT site?

On the Siren no I don't have one but heard it's a good mtl. If I can think of any others I'll let u know.
Thanks for that pointer. Unfortunately I can't get either my Windows 8 or my Windows 7 laptops to recognize my Slice when I follow William's steps. Nor when I follow the steps on Hohm's video of getting the Slice to the "Link to CPU" menu before plugging it in. Stumped at this point.
Tried both Hohm's original updater, and Raymo's as well.
There is a file with USB drivers that comes in the updater download. If I remember correctly there are 3 different USB drivers, try all 3 to see which one works. Also try different USB ports and USB cables to secure a connection.Thanks for that pointer.

Thanks! That did it. Who the hell knows how, when I was having a driver issue, I completely missed the driver folder!
Well, got it updated, so thanks everyone for your help!
That's great, glad your enjoying them. If I come accross another deal with the black or LE versions I will definitely post them here......after I order my orange LE...lolThanks for a great thread. Someone on ELR linked me to it today.
I got 2 new silver g2's yesterday (vaporcube is having half off sale on g2 and slice, only a few colors left in the G2) and I had em both running last night with a bit of help from the ELR thread guys. I had been wanting one (LOL) for ages but was waiting until I paid down previous vape purchase but couldn't pass up 2 for the price of 1. After vaping one with a deep water 2x24/3x32ss staggered clapton from @Volition on ELR (he wanted me to see if it would fire on my rx2/3, it wouldn't) @ 0.08 ohm and putting my boreas (24/36ss clapton 7 wraps 0.15ohm) on the other and playing with the various AIM, SS TC, and FSK in XXX mode I was a total fan boy. Had a few too many (or just enough?) drinks last night and woke up this morning to an email that I bought a blue and orange for spares as well.
If anyone comes across the black or LE versions on sale anywhere please let me know.

The Silver hitting the hardest is a well established fact in the G2 thread. The Teal Slice is a Slice with panties. Lmfao. Kinda like the Porsche Boxster of the HT lineup. Lol.Only cause they didn't make a teal

only complaint for me so far is both battery doors have an issue with not sitting perfectly flush/down. if I push in on either side of the bottom of one i get a little movement/clicking, and the other has same issue at one top corner. no worries about the cover coming off but it is a bit of an annoyanceWelcome to the G2 Family.

my battery ribbon is not overly long and the batteries are pushed all the way back
I think this is my issue. Not a deal breaker as it doesn't appear I have to worry about the door coming off and the vape is great, just a bit annoying when I grab it sometimes and hear the click.
u r right. I was just swapping batteries onto the charger and tried the door with no batteries installed and there is no slop/play. I am thinking I might just cut the strap as the batteries seem to come out fine after a light tap or two into my palm.
My ribbon on my Red G2 was quite long, it would go under the batteries and all the way back across the top again. I trimmed it so it would only reach back across to the middle of the two batteries.
thanks, mine goes behind and most of the way back across the front of the batteries. will try cutting it in half and if I still get wobble in the cover I will cut it super short so it doesnt go behind the batteries at all
Best kept secret in vaping.Thank you mjag for the write up. This helped with understanding this thing.
Got my G2 this evening and have been playing with all the TC modes with my SS316L Clapton. The TC on this MOD is awesome and actually works! Loving this G2 already.
I am happy your enjoying the G2 and grateful to all the others who shared there knowledge so this thread could be made.Thank you mjag for the write up. This helped with understanding this thing.

Ooooopss .. Yes --- Everyone --- Thank you! One of the best benefits is a community that contributes and actually works together to get the knowledge out there. This is something that I have enjoyed about being a part of VU!
Where did you find a black one in stock? I now have 2 silver* an orange and a blue. I had to cut the battery ribbons on all 4 to try and solve the door wobble. It worked great on 3 of them but the blue one still has a bit of wobble even with the strap removed.
SirVtHondaGuy08 sold his black one and I snatched it up quickly. I had the Silver en-route and then resold it to Mike H when I snatched the black G2Where did you find a black one in stock?

*I will be shipping one of my silvers eventually to a guy on ECF that makes kydex holsters for mods so I can take one of these with me when out of the house. Right now I only have holsters for my rx2/3-200s mods to use when travelling.
I had that issue on one of mine, sent it in and they fixed the issue with new magnets and a new batt door.
with it being such a common issue I can't believe they dont catch it before they go out to the vendor. don't they function test the mod and fit test the door with batteries in?
hehe - my 2 silver ones I had to cut the ribbon completely out, the orange one hand to be trimmed in half but the blue one still wobbles with no ribbon and no battteries so it is obv a MFG/QC defect/failure so I decided to write their CS:
I've never seen a G2 kick you out of temp mode for having the wrong wire.
It will not kick you out of any mode. It will just vape like shit in the wrong mode. I've had the Wismec board kick me out of TC on builds I knew were SS as well. Same build ran fine in tc on the FSK board.
Leave it on that G2 in XXX mode and vape away, even if SS wire.
haha, i just had that thought. i hate building and wasting wick/wire and have a billow v3+ ready to build on next so I just went ahead and topped off the smok tank and will keep vaping on it for now. trying to get more mods/tanks in the rotation so I can vape on more flavors. I got way too much steeped juice I need to use up so I can start mixing again:Leave it on that G2 in XXX mode and vape away, even if SS wire.
With the RX, yea, mine will kick to POWER mode if it's not SS wire ... and when it is SS wire.
That's the beauty of XXX mode. Slap her in there, adjust and vape. Who gives a shit what kind of coil it is. Lol.
