Windows 10 hasn't been released to the public for much more than 24 hours, so I'm not concerned at this point. I imagine Windows will update a lot the next upcoming days, and hopefully fix everything up.

Uninstalled Escribe. Downloaded latest escribe, and installed. Restarted PC. Same Problems. second.docx

I will try and report back in a moment. Yes, I did just update (this morning).

Most of Escribe works fine within Windows 10, but when you go to utilize something with live support, there are problems. I enabled Network Framework 3.5 (by default off) and that seemed to help some. Now when I get a problem, everything doesn't crash to the point of no recovery. I can hit continue, and continue. I receive a crash during atomizer analyzer, and also during "device monitor". Find my two error logs attached. dna200_crashlog.docx

Successful update - Using Windows 10.

Neat idea. I can's answer your question as to whether or not wiring both the up and down to one switch in parallel, and making it all become one circuit would work though. My thought is to make it more complex than probably needed. Have one button, so that when you press it is going to interact with the two other circuits that need to be closed for up and down to get the function, almost in a way, so that each up and down circuit stays separate, but it's still doing what you want. Yikes, I might need to get some sleep.

Excellent, happy to contribute.

Thanks siorai.

Allen, It's all good if you're researching and finding other issues. Don't feel like you are taking over by any means. All I wanted to do was point out a possible bug (the instant temp limit thing as seen in the video). Get that out there and known, and allow Evolv to do their thing. By all means, if you feel like what you're doing is related, then keep it here, or in another thread, or anywhere at all. It's all good with me.

Here's the fit of the Turnigy 30C 1000mah in one of the "CNC" 1590G. This is my "thrown together quickly for testing" device. It all fits as long as you use C&K Tactiles for the switches. Well, you could always use the push rod setup for switches too.

Allen, When we are locking the ohms, I was assuming that the purpose of this is to lock the ohms on the display, as well as locking the cold "resting rate" resistance for our atomizer. Is this what that ohm lock is designed to do? OR! Is it literally locking the ohms on our device so that the board it self see's absolutely no change in resistance while we are vaping. Which in turn, if working properly would eliminate the function of temperature controlled vaping. Either way, it doesn't seem to be working correctly. I am loving my DNA200 regardless. Thank you Evolv.

Just to clarify - the video is demonstrating only that my device was hitting temp limit extremely fast. It may appear that I got a burnt hit in the video, but I did not. The "burnt hits" I got really could be due to a whole list of different causes, and I am not describing that as a symptom of "this bug".

Here's a video recording of the whole event. I would love to hear if there was anything I am doing incorrectly, or what comes from this. Thank you!

I just reproduced it, and caught the whole thing on video/screen capture. Encoding the video, and will be uploading shortly. The exact same thing happened. No need to explain anymore, I recorded the computer screen, and also had a live feed camera of my dna200 device as well (on the screen). Should be clear if I am doing something incorrectly, or what the problem is.

Mine would display the correct resistance on screen as well. Never saw the question mark. It's just after I override ohms , the device just thinks it's hitting 600F instantly. Even though the atomizer analyzer is still showing the correct resistance, which obviously is not changing enough to be in the 600F range.... I will also try to get you some screen shots/ screen capture video.

While within the atomizer analyzer, I clicked "override ohms" and a window pops up and asks' me to input the ohms. I input the ohms, exactly what atomizer analyzer was reading. (For some reason the device was reading .12 and I knew the coil was .09, which is what escribe said it was whilst in atomizer analyzer.) After overriding the ohms, my device first displays a 0.00 resistance with the lock next to it, and then shortly after the device will display whatever resistance it's reading from the coil. The issue is, when I do this I can't vape at all. The temperature protection is kicking in instantly. Usually if the displayed resistance is off a little, you can still get a little bit of a vape before it hits temp protect, but with whatever this override ohms does it makes the device think it's hitting the set temperature instantaneously. I can not get any vape whatsoever because it's just so instant to hit temp limit. After disconnecting my device, and exiting escribe, the problem continued. I could not vape whatsoever. I tried unlocking the ohms on the device, as well as locking them again but nothing helped. What solved the issue was putting a kanthal build atty on the device, it then fired as usual. Put the original nickel coil atty back on, and now everything is working beautifully again. Just to confirm as well, I can see the display on the device is set to 440F. This atty has always been just fine for me. Atomizer analyzer also confirms that the resistance is steady. I have the latest updates for Escribe, as well as dna200 firmware. I have an 11.1 volt 1000 maH 30C LiPo battery.

Where did you read that you can change the charging current of the USB input within eScribe? I haven't seen that feature.

Yeah. Just knowing that it's important to have those wires properly shielded is good knowledge for me. One of these might help on the other end.

As far as I know, micro usb is five connections. De-solder and extend the five wires? If there's any tips you can think of, I'd love to hear. I'm not going to try this right away, but when a customers ultimatum is having the usb elsewhere or no sale, I may try it then.

I had no reason to be familiar with this type of batteries until now, but I guess I thought there was single cell batteries of all voltage. Guess I was wrong. Thanks.

What are your thoughts on de-soldering the USB, and extending it through wires?

Just to confirm one more time. If there is, say, a single 10 volt Battery. Can we use it, and also charge via USB? You say make sure the tap leads are connected, this would only be in multicell battery setups, correct? I am just confirming I understand what tap leads are (the leads that go to the balance charger)? Thanks again.

Sounds good. That's what I was thinking, that you would just setup the battery stats within the software. How cool is that! Plug in your USB and you're good to go! Love it. If Evolv (or anyone) wants to chime in anymore details, they are more than welcomed. Thank you.

I apologize if this seems amateur, but I never did RC cars, I'm not familiar with LiPo's or balance boards etc. The DNA200 has a USB, and the talk of USB charging has been done, so I'm assuming it can charge via USB ? The YiHi boards could not charge via usb, with batteries in series, maybe that's why I'm having a hard time understanding. It makes sense that the USB charging would be possible, just charge each cell independently? If Evolv did this, I think that's just great. Although, just like I was a bit confused, I believe the average consumer is going to have a hard time understanding it can charge via USB for the same reason I just described. I have to tell people all the time, when they get their custom dual battery 350J device that the USB cannot be used for charging. "But the SxMini M Class can charge through USB!" "Yes, because it's only one battery. USB max is 5 volts, two 18650 is 8.4 max, so it can't charge via USB" So, to be clear. The DNA200 can charge via USB? I do know the battery must have a balance board connector (who knows, maybe they all have these?) and the connector must be connected. Sorry to keep on going, but this makes me curious about this recently recommended LiFe battery: 9.9V LiFe Battery Pack I'm wondering, would this battery still be able to be charged via USB? I'm thinking no? I see it has a balance board connector attached. Is the DNA200 smart enough to know what each cell voltage is? I'm surprised this hasn't been asked, or isn't more publically available knowledge. There has got to be more people like me who aren't familiar with multicell batteries and balance board charging. Thank you for your time.

Loving these suggestions. I am learning more, and loving more and more the battery chemistry of LiFe. Now, to find a small one... good friend David J found this one: http://www.maxamps.com/proddetail.php?prod=Life-1050-99-ERevo-Pack Loving the looks of it. And something we have to consider is 1050mah on this baby is a whole different ball game than 1050mah on a regular ol' 18650. Well, I guess technically it's the same thing, but you will get more vape time. I thought the change from 18650 was going to be a painful one, I'm not feeling that way so much anymore.
