Have you considered stainless steel?

I told you they have impeccable service. Congrats!

Nichrome 80/60 are not suitable wires for temp control. Steam Engine does provide the TFR values for them on their site, but I believe their main use is for people who want to build hybrid builds for temp control with the DNA 200, such as mixing Kanthal & Ni200 or Titanium & Nichrome 80.

No problem...you came to the right place!

I'm happy you threw that in! I'm new to vaping and started with a kangertech subox mini a month ago! Haven't smoked a cigarette yetiCope said:[QUOTE=black lace]Although the op requested to close the topic i think it worth mentioning, as information for newcomers, there is absolutly nothing wrong in buying a top of the range mod as a first mod, why buy somthing less and then upgrade in a month.
Anyway, now it's close to Christmas and seeing as I always buy my own presents that my wife gives me, being a sound ing. and techie fan, I ordered myself an RX 200! But since I couldn't open it til Christmas, I had the time to think I just can't settle for second best. I ended up sending it back and I am now waiting for my realeaux dna 200 to arrive. But after reading all these relo problems I hope I didn't make a mistake!
Not wanting to go off topic, but can someone point me in the right direction as to what I have to do after unpacking it? Any "must do before operating" tips for a dna 200 new comer?
Thx in advance

@icope you can find endless information at Evolv's homepage on the DNA 200 and how to work it.
For another simple set up guide for the new user try this:

@gerbilstampede it sounds like something with the balance charging. There is a lot of information on here about it if you type in "Warranty Service" in the Keyword box in the search settings. You might want to start a RMA ticket with your vendor. Or you can open up one with Evolv, but I believe you will have to swap the chips yourself.
-
Yes, the reason I asked is because the same thing happened to me. When I got my DNA 200 everything worked fine, but as soon as I try to update the firmware on my iMac, using Virtual Box, everything went black. I tried everything and nothing worked, until I bought a Windows tablet. As soon as I plugged my device into the Windows computer, it lit up like a Christmas tree...unfortunately, it seems to be a hit or miss with the virtual machines, because it has worked for some, but not others. My suggestion is to to plug it into a Windows computer and then reboot the computer while it's plugged into the computer and see if that solves your problem.

Are using a Windows computer, or a virtual machine, using a Mac or Linux?brianvape said:the screen went black, won't connect to e-scribe, won't fire. pretty much a brick.

Do you mind me asking what exactly is wrong with it? You would be surprised at what a little troubleshooting can do...you definitely came to the right place.
-
Normal protocol would be to open an RMA ticket with the B&M or online vendor you bought your device from and they should inform you what actions should be taken. I would imagine that if it's only 2 days old, it should still be under warranty. Although Evolv, to my knowledge, have given impeccable service to those that have opened RMA tickets with them, I feel they should be a last resort, unless you bought the chip directly from them. With that said, I am sure they will do everything they can to remedy the situation otherwise. So, I would contact the vendor you bought the device from first, and then Wismec, and if all else fails, Evolv.

Thank goodness...I have been eager to mention this, but didn't want to sound like I was complaining. Thanks for the swift action Nick!

The flavor is great. In all honesty, I can't tell a difference between the V1 & V2. One other thing I didn't mention, is that the V1 is shorter as well. I'm not much of a cloud chaser, like I said before, but I enjoy using it if I am at home relaxing. As long as I don't tip it, it won't leak and I can drip right onto the coils without removing the drip tip or top cap. Here's some pics of the V2 deck and then a height comparison...I would've showed the V1 deck, but I have juiced up coils in it, but it looks exactly the same, except take away the airflow holes-the V1 definitely has a bigger juice well for that reason
-
@RunsWithOtter- I didn't mention it in my first post about the Stro, but both the Version 1 & 2 have a 2 post design same as the Velocity and the holes are definitely big enough to build massive coils, such as any variation of the Clapton and so on... The only difference between the V1&2 is that only the V2 has bottom airflow coming from underneath the coils, as well as side airflow slots...It is a beautiful looking RDA all around. It comes with 2 different chuff caps-1 that has a spit-back screen (made of plastic built right into the cap to prevent juice from spitting into your mouth) and the other just wide open, and then of course it comes with the normal 510 adapter cap-all 3 caps have notches on them, so you can close off the side airflow and just use bottom airflow if you wish. I find myself using the Stro V1 much more often than the V2, only because I always worry about juice leaking on my mods and making a mess, but in all honesty, it is a work of art. If you are looking for a cloud chasing RDA that has a Velocity style posts, the Stro V2 is a beast. Sorry for the long message...I got carried away. Lol.

Nice to see another +1 for the SAPOR. I really think that Youde is on the right track.
-
You are awesome! This was such a great idea and such a selfless act on your part to take time to create this just for the good of this community. You set a good example for everyone in hopes we all contribute what we can to make this community better as a whole. We all have something to contribute, no matter how big or minuscule it may seem. Thanks again!

+1 for the Velocity as well-it's the one RDA that is truly a hybrid, in the sense that it caters to both the flavor chasers and the cloud chasers. I love them clouds brah, but I am definitely a flavor chaser too. Regardless, when it comes down to everyday functionality, especially when I am mobile/on-the-go, I prefer a top airflow RDA over a bottom airflow RDA, simply, because it's less messy. With that said, I still enjoy using my bottom airflow RDAs, such as my STRO Mini v1&2 when I am at home-definitely worth a gander if you're in the market for a cloud chasing RDA. Currently, other than the Velocity, The RDA I use mostly is the Sapor (by Youde/UD), which is not only a beast, but also very affordable. I was definitely surprised at how well it performed. It is a very simplistic top airflow design and very easy to build on. II also have the Aeolus V1, which my girlfriend has become attached to, and for good reason. It's been out for a while, but I think it still is a contender. Lastly, the Hobo V3.1, which I just got and haven't used, so I will have to update you guys at a later date. I enjoy my RTAs too! Maybe we should start a thread called "what are everyone's favorite RTAs?" too...

I got mine for $27+shipping! There are new listings everyday on ebay. They're definitely not hard to come by. * I just checked ebay and they have a "Buy it now" Winbook (used, but comes with box) for $65+free shipping and another one at auction for $25--about 2 days left and 0 bids...Jentz9517 said:Ya didn't you get yours for like 50$

[QUOTE=Jentz9517]Yeah he was running an acer c720 - so I guess I'd better just return this ?
(Yeah, his was an Intel-based one.)
If you want to run EScribe, yes, I'd return it.
There may be a way to shoehorn the KVM virtual machine on an ARM chromebook, but it would probably require every last nerve and stand of hair from a seasoned Linux nerd; and that's without even getting the USB to work.
For the sub 200.00, 150 bucks range, I'd go with a small Windows 10 tablet (with a USB port).
I'd look at one of the Chinese brands on Gearbest. Amazing bang for your buck.[/QUOTE] That is why I went with the Winbook TW700- it is one of the only tablets with a full sized USB port-you can get them all over the internet (mainly ebay) for around $100. -
Is your Chromebook an Intel or Samsung? ...and yes, if anyone can help, Blueridgedog would be the guy to do it.

Oh, so the Chromebook doesn't run on Windows?

Hey, I just sent you a PM. In order to DL Escribe, all you need to do is go to the Evolvapor.com (evolv's homepage) and find the link to download the escribe software. Once you do that, install the software on to your chrome book and it will provide you with a shortcut icon on your desktop that once clicked will open up the program...and that's it. Plug in your DNA 200 and Vape on! It's fairly simple...hope that works! *Also, I suggest you use Google Chrome as a web browser, mainly for downloading and saving CSV (from Steam Engine) files to customize your device. For some reason, Internet Explorer will not save the CSV files.Jentz9517 said:What needs to be downloaded to get escribe up and running with an asus c201 chromebook with an arm processor? Can anyone with experience please list steps? I have limited knowledge and just got this laptop today.. Much Appreciated

I did the exact same thing-I was running VB on my iMac. I tried everything, but nothing worked, until I plugged it into a Windows tablet I purchased solely for the DNA 200-as soon as I plugged it in, my device lit up and is working fine ever since.FredL said:I bricked my Reuleaux during a firmware update. So i tried to do a manual update but escribe is not detecting my device.
I am using Windows XP on VirtualBox. Seems like virtualbox is also not detecting the dna200 attached.
How do i get this fixed? -
Nice...yeah, I haven't used that charger either. I have been using the USB solely. However, I did just purchase a Turnigy lipo charger from HobbyKing, since it charges over 1a current, in hopes of a faster charge time. Anyways, naturally I'm going to throw out the lowest offer possibly, so please don't get offended if you think it's too low. Will you take $100 for the mod and replacement battery? I'm assuming you purchased yours from GB like I did...

Blueridgedog has a great tutorial on how to set it up under the thread "Mac Support". When you open VB, did you make sure to go under the "ports" section where you find "USB", and then click the box next to "Dimensions Engineering...."? If you don't click that box the escribe will not recognize your device... If this doesn't help, make sure to read the tutorial in the "Mac Support" thread on the very first page. If that doesn't help, then I don't know.
evolve has the best customer service!

No problem...I'm just paying it forward. I have gotten lots of help myself on these forums. Good group of guys and gals on here!
