Does anyone have a discharge profile for dual LG 18650 HG2 with 3000 mAh and would like to share? For now I've used the discharge graph for the HE2 and set 44.4 Wh (6 Ah * 7.4). PS: Also thanks for the info in this thread! I was able to complete my first DNA 200 dual 18650 build - everything works perfectly!

Amazing feature! I've always wondered about mod resistance affecting temperature. Thanks evolv for making such a well thought out piece of hardware and software! And for this forum - in my opinion this forum is a total success

I would absolutely love this feature. I want to experiment more with temperature to find a sweet spot but as it is I'm often too lazy to play around with it. Please add it soon - it's the one feature I'm really missing from the amazing DNA 200! The somewhat "religious war" around the question if we vape temperature controlled or temperature limited is a little bit amusing I think one reason why some people like "TL" and set watts low is to create a slowly heating vape. Me I just want full on vapor instantly. But if you set wattage low then you also have to disable pre-heat? Else I don't see how it makes a big difference since the pre heat boosts the watts anyways to reach temperature asap. I'd love if someone who prefers this TL style would post two screenshots of the vaping / temperature / power graph of the device monitor. I'm genuinely curious! BTW I think temp control makes vaping actually easier to set up for grandmas. Just set to 420°F and done.

Any news about this? I've heard on reddit evolv is working on this feature. Is there another post or thread about this topic? EDIT: Never mind I found the thread (way more discussion there) /topic/66948-topic/?do=findComment&comment=902253

Did you use the latest early escribe version? /topic/66731-topic/

Jvape78 afaik the discharge curve is only used for the battery meter to be more accurate how much energy your battery really has left. The voltage doesn't drop linear so you need the curve to correct that.

Thanks for sharing!

EDIT: Sorry apparently it works after all. You just have to set the profile to TC ON by default! Please disregard ----- There are some concerns expressed here about using stainless steel with the DNA200. The main concern is that the low TCR of the 317L stainless steel wire causes the DNA200 to sometimes drop out of TC mode. Which is of course terrible because of the uncertainty. Dry hit roulette. It might also be related to the temp control overshooting because of the low TCR. Could you add an option to lock the mod in TC mode? Maybe for a profile? I'm looking forward to receiving my DNA200 mod mostly because I want to try stainless steel. Nickel is to low resistance and soft, titanium is too springy and titanium oxide, dicodes / nife30 is only available as 29GA. Stainless steel wire has been used quite a bit already and sounds like a good and healthy alternative. People also say it tastes very clean. Please do everything to support more wire choices! Thank you.

I think I've read somewhere that you can set escribe to passthrough (no balance charging) for that case.

Does the escribe software allow you to to read the joules / watthours your battery lasted? Then we could compare two real life scenarios.

I'm planning to use the DNA200 with two 18650 because they should have more energy in joules / watt hours. And they can be charged externally. Curious about other potential downsides as well.

I'd love a DNA50 or 60 with escribe and single cell option as well. I bet it will come eventually. @BobC I think the main reason and advantage to 200 watt is faster heat up time. When you use thicker or twisted or clapton wire you have a long heatup time at something like 40 watt. Think 24 GA wire. Some probably like the "slowly increasing vape" I think but I like my vape instant. So that is where the 200 watt reserve come in. So even if you vape at a sustained 40 watt it's useful. My theory is that most people who vape at insanely high watts are only using the "heatup" part of the vape and in reality can't really vape these high watts either. But that is just a guess.

They are not the same. And I'm confused as well because John said "it's wired correctly" without referring to the which kind

Hopefully they make a DNA60 or something that has the same size as the DNA40. But that would be a different board. It would need to be boost/buck voltage again while the DNA200 can only lower the voltage from the battery.

Yes that's what I understand is the correct way. But I haven't done it either. Oh well. Maybe someone else can comment on the wiring. Or maybe it's the wrong way around? (wrong polarity?)

Well that still looks wrong. Try removing the top white cable and splice it with the one coming from the bottom (3.7V). Or have another look at the wiring diagram posted on the last page.

Hmm just in case of misunderstanding: I think 2 and 3 should be together on the middle between both cells (3.7V) and not on the postive (8.4V)

Well like I said from the photo it looks like you have pin 3 connected to positive 8.4V instead of the pin 2 (like shown in the wiring diagram earlier). Or "the tap connection labelled 3 must be connected directly to the tap connection labelled 2" in the OP.

To my unsohpisticated eye it looks like the both white wires should come from the bottom (white to 2+3 pin) Like you wired you would always have 0 voltage for one cell and the DNA200 probably thinks one cell is busted.

Thanks! Makes sense I guess.

Will the 2s pack 8.4V option affect the minimum resistance that you can fire nickel coils?

Oh this is awesome! I was wondering the other day if this was possible! This removes one of my main downsides for the DNA200 for people who like externally charged batteries. Thanks evolv!

The datasheet mentions such a board: http://www.evolvapor.com/DNA200/DNA%20200%20data%20sheet.pdf

I REALLY want this option. It's basically variable temperature instead of variable watts. I just set my power to max and change temp only. But clicking five times, holding up down awkwardly, adjusting and then clicking five times again is absurdly complicated. I would play around with temperature far more often if it was easier. I really hope this is added to escribe as an option.
