Hohm wrecker g2

Got a friend at work to update mine for me and seems to be running stainless a little smoother. Have been using mine for about a week now and really like it, get about the same amount of run time out of it with 2 batteries as my RX200s with 3. still playing around with the kanthal. Thinking I may pick up another if I run across a good deal.

It does, I was saying that 1 out of my 3 G2s had an issue with them, I sent it in for warranty and it's been working ever since. They couldn't duplicate the issue but changed my 510 pin, the board, and updated the firmware
So i should contact them and ask/see about some sort of fix?

Ecig.com has them brand new for $73, use ecig10 code and get another 10% off. That's the best brand new price I've seen. Vaporcube.com has them new for $69.99 use code G2WRECKER65OFF. They also have refurbs for $54 use code G2REFB. Little pro tip. If you order from Ecig.com get a tank or a set of batteries to bring the price over $75 so you get free shipping.

Nah man, they're all the same. Its just an in thread joke. We joke that that the silver ones are better and hit harder. Lol.

What you mean the same? The silver is the best of all...unless they come out with a black with red symbols. Then silver would be second

Just got my G2 the other day & I'm loving this thing. Slight learning curve tho. I was hitting it in watts mode & it was pissing me off that at around 60%+ battery it was dropping down in wattage. But now that I discovered auto+ temp mode, I'm just wowed with it. Hits harder at 400 than my other mods at 600. Can't see any other reason to use anything else but auto+ temp now.

Only cons with this mod for me. Sometimes doesn't read new resistance when changing atty's, gotta redo twice or 3 times. And that fuckin clicking on the battery door lol

Battery door shouldn't click. When I first got mine the battery contacts were real tight and I wasn't pushing them down all the way. Make sure you are pushing them down. Some people also claim the ribbon on some is to thick but I haven't seen that in any that I own.

Thx bro I just tried that but it still clicks when I press the top or bottom of battery door. Pretty damn annoying cause I find myself pressing on it & can't stop. Like someone biting their fingernails lol. No biggie tho I can live with it.

Is 2.5.5 the latest firmware version? Watts go up to 171 so i' m guessing i have the latest update. Also how do I get into Xxx mode? I know someone posted the setup video on this thread somewhere but can't seem to find it

Someone mentioned earlier that its possible to upgrade on a Mac. Has anyone done that yet? I don't have access to a pc til Monday so if its too much of a hassle upgrading on a Mac, I can just wait.

Hit the mode button 3x quickly. There are 3 screens from there. Keep hitting the mode button 3x until you see the choice for xxx mode. Choose xxx mode. Exit that menu. Then hold the mode button down and the +/- at the same time to get into the Insanity menu. This is where you adjust your FSK Curve.

I'm annoyed/pissed. The combo doesn't come with the rda base.
It's like $20 I think. But I only have seen it on eBay so far. And it's from china and no info on where to buy from ijoy.com

Been lurking in this thread for a while and read the whole thing... :facepalm::crazy: Thanks to everyone for all the info here.
I just ordered 2 more G2's to bring my total to 4. Now the wait begins...:wait::vapemail:
The two I have are my favorite regulated mods. They have been upgraded to 2.5.5 firmware. I thought xxx was great, but the upgrade for ss and kanthal make those modes work so much better than before. The two new ones will put my RX200's in the vapagedon backup stash.

Cheers,
Goph

I currently have a red/silver and a silver. I just ordered another red/silver and and a black/silver. Being a life long SF Giants fan, there is no way I could do Dodger blue... Now if they had a black/orange...:D

After the Limitless Plus switcheroo they pulled, iJoy will get no more of my money.
 
I just updated my g2 with the new 2.4.4 software and am wondering about the new setup. You can now just select kanthal but it doesn't seem to work as well as the setting I had on xxx mode before the update. In xxx mode now I don't know what to set it to as its now a percentage as opposed to a tcr number. Any help would be appreciated.
There is a really good video on YouTube where Phil busardo(no clue on spelling) and the maker of the Hohm wrecker talk about it. The percentage is based on the quality of the kanthal. Start at 50% and adjust.

This G2 is my best purchase in over 5 years of vaping! Kanthal TC with K/N80 fused claptons work fantastic & xxx mode with 316L too.

That stupid clicking on the battery cover only happens with my Samsung 25r & sony vtc4 but I will be using the hohm batteries once they arrive, so that shouldn't be a problem anymore.

If only they would fix they way it reads attys. it's frustrating to have to take off & put back the atty to reset to the proper resistance. At least its not happening every single time.

I'm having a really difficult time controlling myself from buying a slice or another G2 lol

Hopefully he got it figured out in the 8 months since he posted that... :zombie: :giggle:

This is the only reason I have not pulled the trigger. I pretty much all of iJoy/Limitless atties, I will not pirchase this on till the base that actually makes it what it "claims" is included or can be had as a bundle or something for less. Silly to market it as a combo and not include the damn "combo RDA" base??? Wtf LOL.

Are you thinking of cancelling your order?

I updated to 2.5.7 in my Mac running Parallels Desktop. You could use VM Ware as well. Both offer a free trial so you could do this relatively simply, just gotta source out a copy of Win 10 online as well free/legally .

I hope that helps, some one also mentioned using a DFU program. Have not used it personally bit here it is if ya want tk check it out;

So I was just messing with different SS settings, 316 first then 304 and 430 and all of them are working so well in the perspective modes that I will now only use XXX mode with Kanthal. Of course next week I will forget which tank has the 304 and 430, gotta take notes.....lol.

One thing I just noticed though is when I went to take off the 304 tank and put on another tank with Kanthal transformer coils was my battery life was down to 08% and it was still vaping fine, always swapped out batteries in the 30% range before because I could notice the decrease in performance since I generally run my watts high and hot. Took out the batteries and they read 3.39 volts when I put them on the charger.

What really surprised me was the performance when the batteries were running low, wasn't like his before so they definitely improved either the way it is read or just added some new algorithm to improve battery performance.

This new update is damn impressive, kudos to Hohm tech, they really improved an already great product.

aybe the Avail management hasn't got the idea that e-commerce requires you to ship items to other states/countries in order to be successful?

ronics man for the soon to be underground!

are really awesome. I can't say enough about their customer service and commitment to overall satisfaction. They promptly addressed my issues and ensured the problems were solved quickly and completely. Def. a stand up operation, and I for one am glad that hohmtech has them as their warranty support center. I am confident that if any issues, however large or small, arise with these boxes in the future that we owners are in

New to VU and also a new G2 owner. If you're on the fence about this mod. Go ahead and jump on it.
Its great!!
Welcome to VU and welcome to a great thread. There's some real good people with a lot of knowledge on the FSK board.

So it's been a couple of days since I've gotten my G2 and I really do enjoy it. It fires everything I've thrown at it and I've figured out my fsk. I actually don't change it between builds but I normally just use a kanthal nichrome combo. I don't understand why this mod doesn't get a lot of love (maybe because of the design? I think it looks pretty cool. A big boxy mod).

I'm new to variable mods so I was surprised that once I hit 35% batteries, the performance goes down. That's what I like about the ipv5 vs this one but that's not a big deal. Both perform well imho but not getting dry hits anymore and being able to build lower than .15 makes this a winner in my book.

A stupid question but how do I get back to select the SS tc option? When I press mode 3 times I only get the advanced TC mode, even when I disable Auto+
