AllenH, when are the Ohms changing exactly? Atomizer Analyzer shows raw (not cold) resistance, so when the coil is hot it will show a higher resistance. Or are yours all over the place while the atomizer is completely cold? Locking Ohms will cause it to ask you less about whether it's a new coil, but it cannot fix the underlying problem if your cold Ohms are bouncing all over the place. That would indicate a bad connection, most likely.

Incidentally, in your video... when you switched to Kanthal, it removed the Ohm lock?

Hmm. I will look into this. Just out of curiosity though, why are you needing Ohm lock at all for normal vaping? (Much less Override Ohms, which is for an even more specific case, and really for testing?) Incidentally, what Atomizer Analyzer shows large the raw Ohms, not the 70 Fahrenheit (cold) ohms.

I've put up a new firmware, July 9, and a new EScribe, 1.0.23. On the EScribe side: - Live View looks better. - LiFePO4 batteries have a default discharge curve. - There is a new Battery Analyzer for those interested (requires the newest firmware). - The watt-hour calculator will offer to fill in the field for you instead of making you type it. On the firmware side: - Fixes a bug that could affect reliability. Worth the update. - Optimizes the code quite a bit, which should make the device more responsive. - You can rearrange default fields just like custom fields now. Enjoy James

Hi Justin, If you are able to repeat it, could you paste in the text it gives in Details of the error message? I am guessing it is throwing an exception. Thanks James

The DNA 200 communicates over USB HID, as well as supplying a standard USB CDC serial port (/dev/ttyACM0 on Linux). We intentionally chose standard protocols so as to not require drivers on less common platforms. If you want to get it running on Wine, you'll want to contribute USB HID support to that project. Wine has needed that for a while -- it could use Dymo scales, many embedded programming tools, etc. if it had it. I don't think it would be a very large project, as the kernel hidraw is very similar to Windows's HID.

The reason for an accessory board is to provide reverse voltage protection for each cell. Otherwise you could damage your board and/or batteries in the event you put one in backwards.

Set Display->Battery Meter to On All Screens to display it on top of your custom screen.

I should add that while the Windows serial driver is proprietary, the protocol it speaks is standard USB CDC serial. So Linux will recognize it without a driver. Because the device is composite, the CDC serial must have an Interface Association Descriptor, which makes the serial not work with Mac OS X (no IAD support). But, the HID-tunneled serial will work on every platform.
