I've been using a Therion 166 with a Crown uwell 3 tank for a couple weeks and it was working great with the 0.25 ohm coil. Today I switched out the coil and put in a 0.5 ohm coil, changed the setting on the Therion to the stainless steel setting and the performance is really lacking, even at the recommended 70-80 watts. Switching back to the default setting I used with the 0.25 coil restores the performance but I get a "too hot" warning. At even 60 watts I get a "high ohms" warning.
Any insight is greatly appreciated

Confused. You changed the setting to SS (I'm assuming it's a SS meant for tc or wattage) then ran it at 80-90W. Do you mean simply running wattage mode on it or was that your setting for tc use, in which case, what were your temp settings? If it was tc, one of the issues with a factory coil can be not knowing what type of SS was used. I always assume 316L and select that, but there are several SS choices in materials you can make, so do you know which you chose?

Still the most important question is was this in wattage or tc mode?

I don't own your gear either but something seems odd here. It sounds like TCR mode wasn't working so you switched to wattage? I'm sort of wondering (if you had TCR setup incorrectly) if it could have affected your coil somehow, leading to issues vaping at the wattage you want after that? I'm *in no way* suggesting this is the answer, but I am wondering about the possibility. The more info you can provide clearly, though, the more folks who are more expert with this type of setup will be able to help you.... Good luck,

Anna
