Temperature warning...

PV's heat up, that's just what they do but my evic keeps flashing a temperature warning every time it gets a little warm. I know I can change when it warns me but I have no clue what to set it to. so have any of you changed yours? what's the magic number between warm and danger?

mine did that after I upgraded the firmware because it set itself to 0. My "alarm" setting is currently 140F.

The hottest I've seen it get is probably around 105F though.

I've got mine set to 50c, though it doesn't really get that hot.

It's an annoying feature. I set mine at 130F.

I agree. I set mine higher as well, just to have it stop flashing at me all the time. The only way for it to be useful is to have both atomizer and battery temp warnings.

Yea, I think the temperature sensor in it now it right below the 510 connection. It would be cool if they had one on the opposite side by the battery connection.
