[ThinkVape Finder DNA250C - power cuts off after temp protect message]

I am not to sure what firmware I am on to be honest. I think the stock on the drone doesn't have that info.

I am hoping this fixes when I get home. I also have a feeling it could be my coil. My coil that usually reads .48-.51 is reading like .60 .70.

So hopefully between switching my coil and making sure I am on this software, hopefully should alleviate this issue.

I stocked up on these Drones because Strikes USA are blowing them out cheap. Could be a QC issue haha. 

Is this link like the whole suite or is it just  a service pack? 

For now just try to update with regular Escribe:

Has this stood up to the test of time?

Just got a Drone and having this issue. 

Please advise

Yep, it worked without any problem with Finder 250c and Triade 250c until I stopped to use TC (in favor of nexmesh). Have you updated Drone's firmware in Escribe?

I bought another DNA250C mode (Triade), same problems.

After another long chat with Evolv support I found freshly published firmware for 250c:

Fixed spurious Temperature Protected errors that could crop up in certain high-CPU themes with Replay off.

Viola, 1.1 SP38 for now fixed this bug, I haven't tested it for a long time, but so far so good with two completely different builds.

Hope this fix can help others who was bothered by this bug.

So Evolve support replied to my ticket:

This is definitely a resistance stability issue with the 510 that can likely be resolved. This however is not technically a DNA board issue.

Due to the cost of shipping we are unable to accept complete devices or boards for repair and/or RMA outside the USA. If you require repair service for a complete device or boards outside of the USA Stealth Vape is the official contact for Evolv's RMA service outside of the USA.

Nothing much, seems like the board itself is fine and the device is faulty.

Hi there,

I recently got dna250c Finder and it spotted weird behavior while working in temp control. Sometimes it ramps up just fine, sometimes it shows "Temp protect" and after this message the power instantly cuts off (as when you stop pressing the button, graphs look just like that).

I tried two tanks (vgod elite rdta and reload rta) with various SS316 (vandyvapes/geekvapes/xkfm) builds in range from 0.09 Ohm to 0.40 Ohm - always the same, meanwhile older paranormal 166 works normally in tc with the same builds.

Is it common problem with 250c? Are there any ideas what to tweak to fix it?

Regards
