  1. The Cubis coils BF 316SS coils won't work in SS316 or SS316L modes for crap, But they DO work albeit @580F in SS304 Very Well on the DNA200

    40W
    580F
    200 Ramp @ 2 sec

    Hits Temp very fast and holds steady using about 31w in the end

    [QUOTE=dc601][QUOTE=bingbling][QUOTE=Stevelee]Can I have the file also ? I am using vt200 also Million thanks Email : stevelee8217918@gmail.com



    I spoke to Ari, the author of the file about sharing it, and he felt it was better you get it directly from the source so he can provide support and updates for future escribe versions. I will respect his wishes and not share it here. You are welcome to join the Facebook group "Dna200 modders", there you will easily find the posts from Ari containing the settings file and support for it.[/QUOTE]

    Why not contact Hcigar and get their file after all they made the device.  Ari's file was modified by Ari thus different than Hcigar's file.  Go to the source, or at least that is my take on it.  Good luck.[/QUOTE]

    That would of course be the ideal solution, if HCigar had bothered with calibrating the device from the start, which they have not. They ship it with evolv defaults.[/QUOTE]



    that is all well and good except not all vt200's are the same, each battery for instance is not identical and the import you get may not be ideal for your battery .....using evolv defaults you get the experience tuning your own device using the analyzer's in escribe and building your own profile ..... a lot quicker than waiting on someone else to do it

    Hello,

    I have two DNA devices.

    1) Vaporshark rDNA 40
    2) HCigar Vt200

    I bought the DNA 200 in hopes to get a full day of vaping between charges and maybe experiment with the Smok TFV4.

    So here is my dilema.

    I currently have an Atlantis Triton and I am using Nickel coils.  .15 Ohm.  On my Vaporshark I run it at 470 degrees and 40 watts.  I NEVER hit the temp warning at this setting and get tons of vapor and flavor.

    I swapped my atty to the DNA200 device.  At 500 degrees and 40 watts I constantly hit the TP warning and have significantly less vapor production. 

    I turned off preheat (changed it to 1w and 0 seconds for preheat) and while it has improved vapor production it is still less than the DNA40. 

    Tried turning preheat to 50W with a soft hit and 1 second duration.  No change.

    I am thinking it is the CSV file for nickel causing the issue (misreading temperature) as I have also adjusted the battery settings.  (It was set at default 9 w/hour instead of the 14 w/h due to the 1300 MAH battery) which improved battery life but did nothing for vaping experience. 

    Is there an updated CSV file for nickel coils?  Is this just a calibration setting?

    I am on the latest prerelease firmware and escribe from 10-21-2015 and firmware from 9/30  and honestly even the public releases had the same results. 




    The dna 200 is more accurate than the dna 40 is .... what you are seeing is normal

    [QUOTE=Mad Scientist]I would stop messing with the old battery housing if you think your soldering skills are rusty. It will take some willpower but wait until the new battery section arrives. The risk is if you do something that damages the board then you have a real problem. From what you've said it seems like it could be the fuse but you say you've tested the fuse? Let us know how it works or what it does when the replacement battery section arrives.



    I haven't TESTED the fuse as such, but visually inspected it and it looks fine. Plus I have never reversed polarity or caused reason for the fuse to go-but I agree, seeing as my soldering skills are not what they used to be, I will just have to wait out for the battery.

    I have run tests in Escribe, and it DOES fire, albeit at 4.5 watts max-any higher I get a battery or ohm error. I believe this is due to my soldering-as the battery completely failed when I removed it to test another battery, and re attached it, so I am sure that it was my soldering that is causing not enough power to be able to be drawn. It shows up in escribe as charged and such-like there is a connection, but I believe it to be a very weak connection.

    I hope its not the fuse anyway-I used (I forget due to my memory) part of escribe, where you install firmware, name the device, and it test fires to make sure everything is OK. That passed as normal-which I why I believe the fuse to be OK-surely it would not fire if there was a fuse problem?

    Anyway, 2-3 1/2 weeks and I will know for sure if it will work, or is garbage.

    If it is the fuse-what can I do?

    If it is that I will probably just get another DNA200 from the UK, but I will ensure I test the hotcig with the correct battery, as I believe it MAY work, as its odd it stopped the exact moment I took the battery out, and soldered it back in. Surely that has to be the answer?[/QUOTE]


    Less is good .....adding alot of solder will not make it better.... I would desolder it and tin the wire and just melt it to the pad .... too much heat on the pad will cause it to detach from the board



  5. I did not run a test as such.   I am not worried about voltage drop when idle.   I just figured it would be a good idea to have an option for OFF, always.   Lets say for instance you required to turn it off for lets say TSA or something our of the ordinary.

      


    I have never had the TSA ask me to turn something off .... they have asked me to turn things on to verify that they work as intended tho

    I have been wondering if the temp my DNA 200 is reading, is correct. It seems that 450F is a lot warmer on another mod(IPV3) then mine, both using the same tank and coil. How do i test to see if the temp is correct?



    you cannot compare apples to oranges ..... the dna 200 does not use PWM and the others do so it's not a good comparison ... the other mod if you could monitor it would be reading temp fluctuations that are higher and spike above your set temp very often which is why you get the warmer vape, you will also start to taste cotton burning ( above 420?) if you run it dry unlike the dna 200 that stays at or below your set temp.

    Using EScribe you can monitor and fine tune all the settings and see the curve and ramp up and get it exactly how you like to vape and then save that profile so you never have to do it again.
  7. I have been experimenting with alot of different brands and gauges of Nickel.

    Tempered or Hardened nickel wire with cause some issues with fluctuation.

    I am currently using 24G Crazy Wire (soft standard) Nickel on my drippers with FiberFreaks N2 wicking.

    12 wraps around 3.5-4mm (depends on rba) dual comes out to 0.05 and it holds A LOT of juice and vapes wonderfully @ 460F / 85W in my Twisted Messes RBA @ 4mm on my DNA 200, some others wont take more than 3.5mm so check your clearances so you don't short it out.

    This is not a battery conservative build but the clouds be a chuckin and the flavor is damn good.

    You could probably Single coil it and cut power in half .... should come out around .08 -.09 and maybe 45-50 Watts, gonna have to see what i can get it at in a derringer single build.
