Thanks. Be nice if they didnt hide such an update in a forum thread and made it available form the DNA HP....

So when are DNA200 people going to get the firmware update that improves SS

What me? Not likely at this time of day, i dont vape inside - oversensitive smoke detectors, maybe on a warm day - (its winter and night here at the moment) when i can open the window and door to vent the vape

I cant fathom how people are still complaining of problems with 316L SS on the DNA200 Ive been using it for months, no drama All my coils are built thusly: Single coil 7/8 wraps of 26g 316L for around 0.6 Spaced I think ive said it here, and probably on every forum where people bang on about issues with 316L SS, build your coils knowing the caveats of the wire - low TCR, and stop blaming the DNA200 for the limitations of the wire. Build for above 0.5, the device has a far better chance to cope with the wire if you give it enough TCR to work with. Plenty of people who have followed this advice in my posts will tell you they had far better experiences. People do have luck building lower, probably using good quality wire. But if youre using cheap fasttech or other generic who-knows-what-it-actually-is-even-if-its-labelled-316, and youre whining, then you need to get better quality wire, and stop whining. Im not a cloud chaser either, i vape to not smoke...im weird like that. All my coils work fine with the default 316 profile... I do not use Preheat - i approach this thusly "why would i want to heat my wire/juice to a setting i wouldnt vape at?". I can wait a half second for the wire to heat up, and up to the temp i vape at. Preheating a wire beyond the temp you intend to vape at and not getting accurate results...well i wouldnt be surprised...again, learn about the caveats of the wire...preheating it is just going to mean youre forcing the mod to make calculations on a wire with very low TCR, at inflated initial TCR values due to preheating....not the mods fault, its yours for not understanding how it works, or recognising the limitations of the wire <- a lot of the problem is people not understanding the fricking limitations of the wire. I have my watts set at 40 I vape at 180-200c Never lock ohms, my atties (2 x Lemo 2's) are rock stable...another area people need to consider, how stable are your atties. Mine do not drift. I use the same atties on my other mod - a TreeBox, and they work just as well on that as the DNA200, with the same read ohms, and the same temp settings. I can go from the TreeBox to the DNA200 and the experience is identical....so its nothing to do with the DNA and the whiners assertion that the DNA200 is flawed with 316 L SS....build a decent ohmage spaced coil with decent wire.... If youre having that much trouble with 316L SS, the answer is simple, move to 430 SS, it has a higher TCR, so even with crap quality wire, you have a better chance of success. Ive been waiting for 430 SS to be available here, to make things even more accurate, but im not in any rush 316L SS works just fine, with a coil built to the limitations of the wire. Ive been a tc only vaper for about 8 months, and using 316L SS for about 6 months of that

Ive tested, on my Efusion DNA200: the built in SS316 profile the steam engine 316 profile the DJaquith v7 profile and the DJaquith is almost anaemic, the built in 316SS and Steam Engine 316 are perfect at 40w, no preheat (why would i want to take my juice higehr than i plan to vape it) and 180c-200c I build single coils to 0.5/0.6 (7/8 wraps of 26g 316 on 3mm id) though so i eliminate the low TCR issue Why people arent building coils to a sensible ohmage to suit the limitations of the wire still boggles me...no point when the TCR is known to be low on 316ss, building your coils very low and then posting complaints about it, youre actually creating the issue
