  1. aww man it doesnt have that LED the 75 has. that would of been a cool thing for the 250 haha
  2. I honestly don't want to buy lipo based DNA 250 mods. Either the battery life is meh because of a relatively small lipo or its huge to fit a high capacity lipo. Hence why I absolutely adore the reuleaux and triade.
  3. Man i wish this had come out earlier. other than the boxer no mods can use this. well in the US. I hope that some china company makes a mod out of this even though the USA is out of the loop. looking at you lost vapes. I want that triade 250.
  4. I strongly agree with this. I always have my wattage at pretty much max since in the end I want instant heat. having to lock the device and hold + and - everytime is tiring as hell
  5. Man is there any way to change the language for escribe? Because every single time I install the latest escribe software it automatically puts the language in dutch....god I hate using dutch for vaping stuff.
  6. Honestly this thing interests me the most out of all the other mods simply because the battery is easy to remove. innokin just please partner up with evolv and make a disruptor DNA 200.
  7. preheat is 200 watts and normal watts settings is 100 watts. It doesn't make a difference if I even set it to 200 watts. the thing that is just weird is that I have used this tank on my RDNA40 and 40 watts barely got it to like 460-470 if I remember right. meanwhile on the DNA 200 apparently 35 watts is enough to keep the same coil at 600F on a full open draw. I know the preheat helps a ton but if 40 watts wasn't enough to get the coil to even touch 490 then why should 35 watts be enough to keep the temperature at 600F. I just don't know what is going on. if looking at the device monitor it seems fine I guess. pretty much instant jump to 600F and instant drop to said 35 watts. I don't know who else has used the ni200 coils on the TFV4 or herakles but does 600F at 35 watts sound right?
  8. You talking about the mod itself or the atomizer? the atomizer is just the ni200 coils for the sense herakles and the ni200 and TI coils for the SMOK TFV4. the mod itself is using all the recommended wiring for the chip. the 510 is a fat daddy V4. my own buttons instead of onboard. I have met all the requirements in terms of wires and I have done the internal resistance test and applied the correct mod resistance in escribe.
  9. So I have been having issues with getting a good vape of my DIY DNA 200. Essentially I have tried nickel and titanium prebuild coils so far(drippers dont do it for me) and every time the vape is extremely weak. Like I have been vaping on a herakles ni200 coil at 600F and its very weak. at 500F I can take stupidly long drags while holding the tip of my tongue above the drip tip and it would just feel like air. NI200 and titanium coils(with the steam-engine CVS ofcourse) for the TFV4 have given me the same result though if I remember right the titanium gave me a slightly better result. So steps I have done. Firmware and escribe are up to date. atomizer is cool.I have done the mod resistance test. shorted out a doge V2 with like a super short piece of 18 gauge copper. internal resistance ended up being 0.016 so I entered 90% of that which was 0.0144But still the vape is weak. I just don't understand why. I highly doubt a herakles at 600F is supposed to feel cool. It works great in standard mode but in temp control it feels extremely weak. I have tried so many things and I can't figure out what is up.
  10. To be honest. The only two markets here are online and B&M. Online stores have always had cheaper prices than B&M this has always pretty much been this way. It doesn't really do anything. Those who go to B&Ms will still purchase from their B&Ms. There are so many people that still buy their hardware from B&Ms that sell at MSRP and above. Not so long ago I saw somebody talk about their istick that cost him 30 bucks above the normal price. He was okay with it. He liked supporting his B&M and he loved being there. Those people will always buy there no matter how cheap something is online. People who always order online will always order online. People like me who have no B&M nearby will not go to a B&M ever. And HCIGAR's policity are more price fixing than MAP. Even IF a store sells the mod without advertising a price it's warranty is still void. Even if say the store hides the price until the end. it does not matter. It's not a MAP system it's price fixing. HCIGAR wants 169 bucks to be the price and no matter how they will force the store to keep that price. It just kills competition in the online world AND B&Ms. you could have B&Ms nearby competing with like 10-15 dollar discounts on the mod. to have a competitive market but instead they just lock it up completely. The biggest issue is that the CUSTOMER is the victim here. We get no deals. we get no coupons and if a store DOES sell it under what HCIGAR wants we lose all warranty and THAT is the most horrible thing. Why should WE the customer be punished for a store "breaking" the rules? If I buy the HCIGAR mod at say 140 bucks instead of 169 and HCIGAR finds out and cuts off supplies to the vendor and they run out of mods. I get ZERO warranty AT ALL. I can't go to the store I bought it from since they can't get hold of new mods and HCIGAR won't give me any warranty no matter how young the device is. consumers are also not bound by any reseller agreements. The consumer should NEVER be punished for what the store and HCIGAR agreed on That business system is the biggest issue. And then you have the Sherman antitrust act that makes it illegal to price fix in the US. The only reason why apple is able to kill a competitive market is because they sell a 300 dollar device to the reseller at say 295 dollars making it impossible for them to lower their prices because the profit is so small(they have to earn their money with the rest of the hardware likes cables,programs and such). HCIGAR is selling these mods for like 90 bucks to the reseller and Price-fixes the price. They aren't putting down a MAP because a MAP would still be able to worked around by websites like newegg that don't SHOW(advertise) the discounted price until you check out. No this doesn't use that. If a store sells below the 169 dollars no matter HOW they kill warranty and supplies. That is not a MAP agreement. It's just a stupid business in general. The only thing it does is piss off the consumers. How much negative press has HCIGAR gotten over this? I constantly see people complain about HCIGAR and their price fixing. Brandon that is like you guys saying "sell this chip at 60 bucks you get it for 30" and then somebody uses the MAP system(not advertising the price) to sell it at 50 bucks. And then you guys find out and destroy the warranty of the end consumer. That is you price fixing a chip not you putting a minimum advertised price.
  11. Implying everybody has B&M stores nearby. My entire vape collection is PURELY based on online purchases. I don't have B&Ms close to me and I never will. Even when I was in the US I only found 1 B&M that wasn't like a hour drive or more. That B&M just sells rocket fuel and halo and some generic probably house juice. only had CE4s and some nautiluses and the whole thing. No high end anything. He also didn't want to focus on anything bigger than replace coils. Which is a bigger market than the hardcore people. Very very very lovely place to hang out thought. he likes advanced stuff but he doesn't sell it. Another one in baltimore I found had more advanced stuff(mostly clone mechs though) but they were like 30-40 bucks over alot of stuff. So pretty much overpriced. Really good house juice though. for the rest. eh. Some kiosks with junk everything. Plus the people that buy at B&Ms would buy stuff from a B&M anyway. people that shop online will pretty much always buy online. The only thing this does is destroy any option of companies competing and that is just bad for us. I mean 117 bucks VS 160. Pretty big difference. All this does is show to us the customers how big the mark up is and how much profit there is on their device since a store was able to sell it at 117 which probably still included a profit. Them just posting it on their facebook was just a dumb idea. All this also does is piss us off. No deals. no coupons. always the same price. We know that stores can easily sell it cheaper but vapecige is forbidding them to give us a better deal. It's suggested retail price china not fixed retail price.
  12. GG vapecige. Tell your potential customers that you demand that stores have a huge markup and destroy competitive online pricing. Guess who isn't touching their products now.
  13. I wonder how many of the hana issues are with their "pre-production" run they did.
  14. Honestly I am thinking of just using square pieces of high strength fire resistant MDF we use in the store. We got like 50 slabs of that stuff so I can mess up as much as I want haha.
  15. It's more the atomizer that does the flavor and clouds thing not the chip.
  16. There will always be people buying hanas and sharks and such. HCIGAR making a cheap DNA 200 mod is no issue. We should be HAPPY that the chip is coming to people that don't have the budget to spend 200+ dollars. For god sake there are people that still buy 300 dollar mech tubes. a tube. there are still people spending over 200 dollars for hammond box mods(that hammond lean yo) HCIGAR making a cheap DNA 200 will not change a single thing. People are just so phobic about china these days. Even companies that now make nothing but original devices still get flack just for being chinese. Honestly I will most likely buy this thing. Just so I have a more portable DNA 200 mod instead of my BrickNA 200's gigantic size. Honestly all I want is innokin to start using the DNA 200 and we get those innocells haha.
  17. I am not the greatest in electronics but The dual atomizer thing should be possible. I don't THINK you really need a switch but the 510 not being used cannot have any build on it. The switch would fix that I think. But then again this switch needs to be able to handle up to 55 amps. fire,+,- is no issue. I had soldered on my own buttons and the onboard switches still work even with soldered buttons on the board. The 510 and buttons should be good to go. The screen I don't think can be done. I looked around and I cant find anything that would split one ZIF output into two. (no point since it would show the same thing on both anyway) I don't think length is really that much of a issue with the + and - on the battery. one meter isn't a stupidly long length for current to travel. Same with the balancer too I think.
  18. Mine was during unlocking the device after 10 minutes of not being used. screen showed the 5 pressed to unlock. and while unlocking it it just died. so mine wasn't during active(as in vaping) use.
  19. Honestly looking at all the dead opus mods I can't ever find anything that would cause the fuse to blow. it's a mystery.
  20. Died after about 6 hours of usage. Fuse burned out for some reason. sending it in when I get a reply from evolv's warranty request.
  21. Well I know now where I am going to get my wire from when I am back in the US this december haha. Impressed by the work you guys are putting in this.
  22. Warranty request has been submitted. Also the fuse is definitely blown while I was trying to desolder it from the board I noticed the green covering on the fuse moving. I lifted it up and behold. White. so I guess it did burn but it didn't burn through the top layer.
  23. Wow. Well I guess I can take abit of waiting if it means my chip will be properly repaired instead of me messing everything up and completely frying the chip(did find a cheaper place for the fuses but hey professional) Can you PM me the details on how to do this john? Man people have always told me about the customer service of evolv but this is the first time I have actually got involved with the evolv customer service. consider me impressed.
  24. The fuse itself is very cheap. no issue there but the only two places that I found that sell it in reasonable amounts are mouser and digikey and both have shipping that are 22-25 bucks. anybody else sells it either in a 10 pack(which isn't too expensive) but only ship to their own country or sell it in 1000 packs. Thank you for your offer to have you guys replace the fuse. Need to check with my postal office on shipping prices to the US since their website is talking 35 bucks on shipping. What would be my cost on the repair and return shipping to belgium?
