  1. The Laisimo does display volts (I don't think it is live). Plus I don't know if the volts are read as peak, average, or RMS. It is probably the latter. The Laisimo has a nice huge color display. It also communicates to another device by Bluetooth. It stores stats like puffs per day, time of each puff, at what wattage, how many seconds, and at what resistance.

  2. When you fire up EScribe and run the Device Monitor. Check boxes for Power, Voltage, and Live Ohms. Now vape normally and what does the graph look like? For Voltage and Power you might see a quick rise, but all three should quickly become a perfectly straight line during the vape. If they are, then I can only think of one thing. Your Laisimo isn't really hitting at the wattages you set it at, but something less (so you have to set the DNA less to match). The Laisimo also uses pulse output at higher wattages while the DNA gives you true steady wattage output.

  3. You know, if it were me. I would disconnect the battery and reconnect it a few minutes later before I requested a RMA. It probably won't help, but it is worth a shot maybe. That is assuming you have a driver for those odd looking screws (I forgot what they are called).

  4. I don't know of any off hand right now, but this place is gearing up to make 3D printed ones for the RX200. And I asked them what about the DNA200? And they said they will look into it. Say what is the faceplate made out of anyway? Is it plastic?

    Oh the above is a reddit link and they are having their April Fools prank. So don't think you were sent to Fasttech. :D

  5. Oh yes. The problem is when you clone Drive C, you also clone all of its memories as well. And Windows gives all drives a serial number and then remembers this drive. So what happens is Windows knows this new drive isn't drive C, so it won't accept it as drive C. The fix is to change the serial number. Then Windows has no memory of this drive and will now accept this drive as the new drive C.

    if you're asking if i had it plugged into a 2 amp wall wart, yes i did. i was using a usb cable capable of supporting two amps. device was charging at a rate of 1.90-1.98 amps (varies during charge). why? what are your thoughts? i'm interested if someone has a definitive reason for this type of failure. 



    Well my thoughts are just that at 2A, the VS gets quite warm and I had some concerns about that.
  7. Well only one thing left. In EScribe, file and save should save everything. I would use save as and create a brand new file name after you connection and download from the device. I would save your profiles too (you don't have too) and your theme (again and you don't have to). And under the General tab there is a button that says Restore Defaults.

    Now if that doesn't help, I can't think of anything else except a hardware failure. And be careful after Restore Defaults. Wattages and TC and maybe other things won't be where you left them.

  8. Nathan already has the latest version of EScribe and firmware. But the problem started back with an earlier of both. My idea is that a newer firmware may not reset something, but leaves it as is. But most users it won't affect. But if there is an old glitch there, the update didn't reset that part of the code or data.

    The only other thing left that I can think of trying is resetting the Statistics in the Device Monitor. In case the data got corrupt or something.

  9. No, don't mess with the version of EScribe, leave that one alone. But while EScribe is open and the DNA200 is connected, click on Tools -> Update Firmware.

    The idea of changing the firmware is all it takes is one bit toggled wrong to make the mod to act totally odd. Normally this isn't a problem. But once every blue moon or so it might happen.

  10. Deep sleeps after 30 minutes and won't wake up without an USB connection? Hmm... just a long shot. Try plugging in the USB cable with the other end is connected to nothing to see if it still wakes up. Next try giving it just power through the USB (like from a wall adapter to USB adapter). This would show whether the data lines are needed to turn it on. And lastly this shouldn't have anything to do with anything, but does it do the same without an atty attached? If it doesn't, that would be a huge clue.

  11. You can turn off TC (temperature control) off manually as well. You just change the temperature as high as it can go and then press up one more and it will say off.

    If you are in EScribe, you can setup a Profile for wattage too. You don't have to if you don't want to. You have to select something for a wire, but for a wattage (power) profile what you pick won't really matter. Since you also select the temperature off check box anyway.

  12. You raise some good points Mike. And while the Device Monitor is super cool and all. But I don't know if it could detect a spike say a thousandth of a second. I am guessing just by observing it that it might not pick up any faster than say a tenth of a second. It is hard to judge from the computer monitor how fast it is capable of. It might just boil down to the abilities of your computer (or the speed of the USB port, whichever is the bottleneck).

    I have four oscilloscopes and I should do some testing when I have some time to kill. As it would be interesting even for a very brief instant in time if it does slam the coil at 200 watts.

  13. Well if the DNA200 thinks it is configured for a 3 cell, yes it will see battery #3 as a dead cell. But once you configure it for 2 cell, it ignores the third cell and just checks the first two cells. And the reason for shorting the third between the plus and minus connections is because the positive is the positive power for the DNA and without a battery it connects to nothing.
