Could you post a snippet of Device Monitor showing the cell voltages? Like this one>

I bought it at my local dealer which are reputable and have spoken to them so warranty is no problem I just wanted to see if it could be fixed in my country so I don't have to wait a month to get it back.
Dealer don't fix they send to Philippines and how they deal is not my problem which they have confirmed.
Thanks I thought it was DOA all the time it's going to Philippines Monday
That is correct. I have a DNA75C Spade and it has the highest mod resistance by far, works well though. It's somethog like 0.02 ohm where all my others are around 0.004.

Do your board and room temps look reasonable?

It could be connection problem between atomizer slug and the circuit board. the positive pin may not be and make clean along with the corresponding positive plate in the mod.
Is this what you mean?
I doubt very much that the board is the problem though anything is possible I guess.
-
As far as I know VA only handles warranty on products purchased directly from them, otherwise where it was purchased from handles it .
-
My thoughts is that the wiring is the problem, the 510's positive or it's chassis ground. Regardless it should be returned to place of purchase.
Well it doesn't have a regular 510 so the output or ground for the atty.

hello there, i live in Toledo, Ohio. Is there anybody that can fix DNA mods?
They (Evolv) are in Ohio also.

Look at the data sheet or elsewhere as to how to fold the screens ribbon.
-
My guess would be that the ribbon on the screen is being pinched under neath the fire button.
I don't know what to think about the firmware issue, did you downgrade it back to 1.2 SP 5.1?
-
Well those are about if not the exact same settings that come default from Evolv on DNA75, 200 and 250, perhaps more.
-
DNA60's don't use one as the charger is not on the board, about the best explanation that I can provide.
So while the settings are there and can be changed there is no way to measure it. I hope that answers your question some what.
-
So I didn't really know the answer for sure so I installed the US firmware on my DNA75C and tried to enable the profile that I was using to be able to Replay. No you need the International version. Just go ahead and install it as the boards are the same boards, it's a legal thing for Evolv.
Here is what I got when I tried to enable Relay with the US version (SP 33.2 US)
Edit: So after posting the above I noted that it only mentioned Boost so I went back and did it over. Replay did not work with the US version.

I'm going to respond to this but it probably isn't going to do you folks any good as they need to be returned. But I will tell you how to figure out what's most likely at fault. Connect you mod to EScribe and make sure it's set for 2 cell operation. Go to Device Monitor and check the voltage of cells 1 & 2, if one of them is higher than 4.2 volts and the other is real low then the battery management chip has gone south.
Then if no cells are above 4.2 volts,
The voltages are read from the balance tap at the bottom of the board. Most likely the connections to them is poor for what ever reason.
So the problem could be with the battery sled wiring, see image,
Since these are new they need to be returned where purchased. If that proves too difficult open a ticket with Evolv, perhaps they can help with it.
Check under the battery door, look at that small connection between the cells that makes when the battery door closes, that is the connection to tap #1....might be a problem there.

Connect to Escribe /Device Monitor, down on the bottom towards the right side is "Buttons". With no buttons pressed it should say "none". Will it fire using "Puff"?

Thanks. Its funny that you showed the easy side by side....thats what I'm getting swapped to a DNA 60. Its a long convoluted story, but someone I have trusted for years, bought tons of stuff from recently screwed me. I already gave him the mod and paid for him to put in a DNA60 chip. I thought nothing of it until now....then realized there is no USB, and how would I know if its legit. I have a clear easy side by side too, so will definitely compare the screens side by side (lol, no pun). But thinking when I boot up the screen it won't say ambition mods anymore....won't it say evolve or something like that or different?
Don't look at the screen as it looks authentic, look at the component layout on the board.
-
It is capable of being programmed to say what ever is programmed into it . If your guy puts in a board without programming it then it will have the stock Evolv setting and will say "Evolv" on the start up screen.
I hate when the builders don't add a data capable USB port. EScribe is half of the show.
-
I was initially fooled in to thinking that the one one the right was DNA60 till I seen one that had a see through case and you could see a different arrangement of the board's components.
-
Here is an example of where the menu is deceiving, the one on the left is a DNA60 and the one on the right it not.
-
Here's one way. Also the menu should give you a good indication.
-
Perhaps you could make a different profile in EScribe for each of the various coils.

The board needs to know if the atomizer that you just put on is the old one and is perhaps warm from just using it. In such a case when you choose old the mod has remembered what the ohms were when cold and applies that setting. Select new and the board with use the existing ohm reading as cold ohms. Hope that helps answer your question, if not asked away.
-
You might give the .25 ohm pods a try.

So if they charge evenly it sounds like they're charging in parallel, right? Hmm, how would Device Monitor know they are separate and not just recognize them as one? I feel like I'm missing something
And bridging for 2 cells but using 3 is just right out. Four shalt thou not count. Five is right out.
You could take 4 cells for example and connect each two in parallel and wire the pair in sled in series. The EScribe setting in such a case would be for 2 cells but the balance could be off slightly between each cell in the pair though it would still work quite well
-
I can only guess but would think it's because 2 cell or how ever many was selected in EScribe.

Device monitor shows that it is charging at a rate of 0.28 amps so it is charging but slowly. Try a different cable and\or power source. Check to see if USB port on the mod has dirt/lint in it.
Your cells are slightly unbalanced but I don't think it's affecting charging but perhaps it is. Do you have access to a stand alone charger? If so charge them that way and get them balanced and see if that helps.
Charging with data connection max is 1 amp and without data connection max is 2 amp.
