Summary of Contents for TAIFUN the eye

  • Page 2 ✔ High ease of use by simple menu navigation (with as few keystrokes as possible) Although easy to use for the "normal" user, the Taifun is also sufficient for the technically minded (display of auto- matic engagement in case of exceeding the set value or permissible parameters, voltage measurement under load and no-load, automatic conversion of the parameters when changing the control mode, battery warning and cut-off threshold editable, 2 hot start modes).

    Taifun power source Operation manual T H E B AT T E R Y Please use only ONE unprotected Li-battery with a raised positive terminal ("nipple") as reverse voltage protec- tion, like Samsung INR18650-29E (with "nipple", unprotected). Insert the battery into the tube with the positive terminal ahead! If you insert it wrongly, the device does not work, but device and battery are not damaged! 1.
  • Page 6 Taifun power source Operation manual The quality of the battery plays the most important role in the operation of the Taifun. The battery should be able to provide a current of at least 8 amps (A)! The internal resistance of the battery should be as small as possible, which is usually seen by a high output cur- rent capability of the battery.

  • Page 9 Function use. When you change the function, the current set value is automat- or I ically converted. The Taifun supports power ("F P"), voltage ("F U") and current ("F I"). Default setting: "F U". Cut-off threshold 2.8V – The cut-off threshold is the voltage at which the Taifun turns itself off to protect the battery.
  • Page 10: Menu Settings

    The Taifun has turned itself off to protect the battery (see also menu item "cut- off threshold"). Green and red light The Taifun is operating at its limits and can not reach the preset set point. If, for example, the menu is set to 8V and a vaporizer with 1.2Ω is connected, the (orange) maximum current would be exceeded at 6V.

  • Page 12: Low Supply Voltage

    Taifun power source Operation manual What is the problem? 1.) Low supply voltage One problem is, that the power of up to 24 watts must be provided by a single Li-battery with a voltage range of only 2.8 - 4.2 volts.

Here is an example: Unominal shall be set to 4 volt Rparasitic = (Rpos.contact + Rscrew1 + Rscrew2 + Rneg.contact) Itotal = Unominal / (Rparasitc + Rcoil) Itotal = 4V / (0.025Ω + 0.025Ω + 0.025Ω + 0.025Ω + 0.7Ω) = 5A Uparasitic = Itotal * Rparasitic = 5A * 0.1Ω...
  • Page 14: Multiple Control Modes

    Operation manual 4.) Multiple control modes Now we refer directly to the power supply "the eye". The overall output power is max. 24 watts, the largest possible adjustable current is 5 amps and the largest pos- sible adjustable voltage is twice the battery voltage under load (max. 8 volt)! We repeat the technical data in or- der to draw attention to the following facts.
  • Page 15: Warranty

    W A R R A N T Y We warrant the product "Taifun the eye" for a period of six months from delivery. In case of a defect within this period, we are generally committed to restore the device into an oparational state or to rectify the defect.
