  1. Well, it seems like all of the options are correct then...and I'm back at square one. I'm going to try what Tread said and see if that fixes it. If that is unsuccessful I'll try a few firmware downgrades and upgrades to see if any of the older firmare builds clear up the issue.
  2. Recently started experiencing this issue on my every day carry DNA250 device. It happens randomly. Some of the time the battery charge is in the 70's range...some of the time it occurs when the battery percentage is as low as 40 percent. The only constant seems to be that it happens when the mod has been sitting for 45 minutes or more (which doesn't happen often during the day). So far I've checked my battery options in escribe for the turnigy 1300mAh pack I use (all correct at Lithium polymer, 14.43 Wh,, 3 cell, soft cutoff at 3.09v, and mazimize puffs) The only odd thing I do see in that tab is the Max Peak Input current is set to 28A, and the Max Sustained Input Current is set to 28A. I've never changed those values. 28 Amps seems completely unrealistic to me....should that be 2.8 Amps, or am I barking up the wrong tree? Currently the mod and escribe are at Version 1.2 SP5.2 I just did a couple of soft reboots, a hard reboot, reloaded my most recent .ecig file, and removed the 3s pack and waited for a minute before re-terminating it. All seems good now, but only time will tell. What have the rest of you found that cured this issue?
  3. Today I was getting ready to take my son to a birthday party. I grabbed my kayfun4 off of my dna200 box. It was time to fill it, but I decided to adjust my spring to fit tighter on the center post collar and put it back in. (I had taken it out and flipped the air flow control screw seeing if I could get a more stable ohms reading by getting rid of the spring). Turns out all that did was cause me to have to see the "New Coil yes+ no-" message every time I filled it. I got the newly adjusted spring back in and put my atty all back together. I popped it on my USA Ohm Meter and saw my .184 build and put the kayfun4 back on my dna200 box. I pressed the fire button and saw the first start up screen, and then it went off when I let off of the fire button. Odd... I pressed the fire button again and it did the same thing. I pressed the fire button and held it and saw the first screen, my custom second screen, then came the "Warranty Service" screen. I took it and plugged it into my desktop and fired up escribe. Escribe acknowledged the device and downloaded my current config. I did a soft reboot....no change. I did a hard reboot....no change. I opened up the forums and started looking around. I found a thread that said to click the escibe "about" tab, and then click the evolv logo 7 times. On the 7th click I heard a light *click* from my mod. I know that sound....it is the sound of an SMD fuse opening. At that same moment I heard the "USB Device Disconnected" sound of my PC. "Uh Oh!" I unplugged the USB cord, grabbed my precision phillips screwdriver off of my desk, pulled the back of the case, unplugged the Deans connector of my lipo pack and JST connector from the board. By that time it was time to take my son to the party. I just got back a bit ago. The lipo is showing 4.04vDC per cell. The onboard fuse is verified open with my meter. All solder joints are clean and free of bridges. No components (other than the fuse) appear affected. I unsoldered all four leads from the board and verified no lifted traces. Verified all 4 JST conductors are good (no cold joints or high resistance conditions). The screen ribbon was not crimped. I plugged the board by itself into my pc....it will not even power up. Any ideas on what may have gone down? I guess I'll start an RMA as this board has only been used by me for 9 days. But what an excellent 9 days!
