  6. Tuglyfe DNA200 Acting Really Strange Hot USB Port

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    OK... from your first post:   I fixed that with the internal resistance of the mod in escribe... I have it set to .12 and that gives me a perfect reading however that seems really high and now whenever I press the fire button I can feel the bottom corner of the mod heating up right where the micro USB port is, like it gets hot but cools down rather quickly.

    How did you arrive at a resistance setting of 0.12?  Did you use an atty "tool" to measure internal resistance?  Most resistances I see and use are around the 0.004 to 0.006 range...

    You might consider a ground wire from the board to the 510 also...

  10. Numbers of Failed VT200

    Bill, I think the reason Evolv discussed the cost of a battery (if needed) was to inform the person that there would be a charge if the battery was bad... that's all... I got the same information given to me when doing an RMA and my battery was still good but over 8 months old so I sent the 20 bucks with my RMA and told them to replace it anyway....Evolv only warned Mordeth that there would be a 20 buck charge to replace a bad battery IF NEEDED as the battery is not covered by the one year warranty.   As Mordeth stated:  "  warned me that if I needed a new battery that the battery would cost $20. "


  11. Python Scripts?

    You might just fill out a "Contact US" with Evolv and select Technical Support.  Describe what you are wanting and ask that the request be given to James.  He is the "guru" of the firmware....  I've not found any other Python Scripts but Good Luck...

  12. ability to configure device without a PC

    And what kind of temperature, wattage, and preheat are you vaping at?  Burning cotton shouldn't happen..... as wick dries the DNA reduces power etc. causing less vapor and flavor production....the dryer the wick the less vape production until you get no production.... burning cotton may be an indication of coil hot-spots especially with contact coils...

    How about a picture of the coil/ burned cotton combination...

    Thought my problem was solved appears it isn't I opened up the side panels to find a cold solder joint on my 510 ground ground just let go guess I'll try to fix myself unless evolve will fix



    Efusion made a cold solder joint, so  let Efusion fix it and the bad insulation tear.... it is still under warranty, right?  

  17. screen stopped working

    in General Discussion

    It could be a loose connection where the screen ribbon attaches to the board.  The screen is replaceable if the pixels just disappeared a little at a time, usually caused by a cracked screen glass or damaged ribbon. Sometimes the ribbon gets damaged as it gets pinched due to contact at the fire switch repeatedly until it just goes out...  

    Best guesses so hope this helps...

  20. Please help Lost vape halcyon DNA 200 issue

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    If I recall it means it is failing the self-check and is out of calibration, thus the wattage settings and the temperature settings aren't correct anymore. 

    Take it back as it is only 2 days old for a replacement under warranty.  Next option after that is initiate a RMA with Evolv which my include just sending only the DNA board to them...

     

  21. not fire right

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    When I use a Kanthal Clapton (single coil) in power mode the wattage via Device Monitor always rises to wattage setting and flat lines there within .01 or .02 above or below wattage setting.  My best guess without physically being able to troubleshoot is either the coils, the connections, or poor grounding in the device.  I always use spaced coils.  Know that I'm not much help but these are my thoughts. If I recall you posted the same issue back in May.  

    Might also try cleaning the 510 pins of the device and atty's...and the threading... good luck...maybe others will have a thought that may help ya....

  22. not fire right

    From the graph it looks like the wattage is regulating with peaks above 80 watts and valleys below 80 watts so it is reaching 80 watts.  Any hot spots in your coils and are they spaced coils?  Coil connections tight?  What results do you see if using just a single Kanthal coil?
