Ok an update. My new Atom coils came in. I primed the coil per the instructions (very important apparently) and went vaping away. Vape production was spot on at 30 Watts, 450 degrees and zero preheat. The coil was reading .15 at this time. I went to bed and charged my VT200 over night. When waking the next morning the resistance read .12 ohms. (refinement I am guessing) and to get the same performance I have had to up the temp to 480 degrees and the wattage to 35. After 24 hours it has been consistent at these settings. To further this, when I changed coils, I made sure I had not been using the atty for 30 minutes to ensure it was at room temperature. I am guessing I had a bad coil previously as even at 530 degrees and 40 watts I did not get the performance out of it on the VT200 as compared to the DNA40 running 470 degrees and 40 watts. I see a lot of people running 25 watts, 400 degrees and 100 watt preheat. I just cannot get the device to perform at those settings as the vapor production is very weak.

I will get this over this next weekend when I get home. I have some new NI200 coils arriving from Atom Vapors I will try out and see if they work better. Based on my reading they should be 0.15 nickel in a clampton design.

ok. So I have been doing some additional testing as the vendor I purchased this from is not answering me. With ultra-low ohm, Nickel coils (premade from Aspire directly and advertised as 0.15) the vape is not as consistent as with my DNA 40 device. Actually, running the same settings on the VT200 results in very little vapor production. (40 watts @ 470 degrees). To get similar results on the VT200, I have to run 530 degrees and 30 watts. As the atomizer heats up (I chain vape) the vapor production gets less and less on the VT200. I got an .ecig file from someone on here, with a VT200, that included settings for 316L. Using the 316L in TC mode, I get constant vape production even when chain vaping. Those settings are 450 degrees @ 50 Watts. Even when the atty heats up the vape production is constant! I actually had to drop the temp to 420 degrees as I do not like it that warm. This is on 0.3 ohm coils directly from Aspire. So it appears my mod has an issue with the ultra-low ohm coils.. I have the Mod Resistance set to 0 for both tests as I do not have the means to test the Mod resistance. Inputting settings from other VT200's (Mod resistance at 0.0045 or 0.01) resulted in much poorer performance from the NI200 coils. Maybe one of the DNA peeps can chime in here and help out.

Ok. It took me a bit but got the file to load To do it open escribe. Click on file in the upper left corner then scroll down to open. Navigate to where your file is located and you may not see it but in the lower right corner of the dialog box is a file type drop down Menu. Change this to all files and your file will now appear. Click on it and click on open. You cannot just double click on the file in windows explorer or use any of the load buttons within escribe. You have to use the file menu at the very very top of the window

I have a vt200 too can you share the file please

This is another thing I am experiencing. As I vape, the longer I vape the less production as well. I am guessing there may be some issue with the 510 connection. I have a call into the place I purchased it at to see what they recommend.

I have looked and looked. Where is the mod analyzer? Or are you talking about the case analyzer?

ok. To answer the questions, I received the DNA200 device on Monday so I have only had it 3 days; however, this issue was IMMEDIATELY apparent. In checking the escribe software, I see the mod resistance set to 0 and the OHM lock range set at 25%. I do not have the resistance locked as I didnt like that feature even on my DNA 40. I have performed the atomizer analyzer and it shows a cold resistance of 0.16 and stable connection even when screwing and unscrewing the atty partially. Thank you all for your help.

Yes the Ohms read the same on both. 0.17 ohms when connected to the device. How I tested is last night I vaped my Vaporshark. refilled the juice and tasted. Went to bed, woke up removed the Atty from the VS and put it on the VT200. Vaped and noticed the difference. Tested this several times with the same results each time. Much less production on the VT200 than the VS even with the VT200 set 30 degrees higher in max temp.

Hello, I have two DNA devices. 1) Vaporshark rDNA 40 2) HCigar Vt200 I bought the DNA 200 in hopes to get a full day of vaping between charges and maybe experiment with the Smok TFV4. So here is my dilema. I currently have an Atlantis Triton and I am using Nickel coils. .15 Ohm. On my Vaporshark I run it at 470 degrees and 40 watts. I NEVER hit the temp warning at this setting and get tons of vapor and flavor. I swapped my atty to the DNA200 device. At 500 degrees and 40 watts I constantly hit the TP warning and have significantly less vapor production. I turned off preheat (changed it to 1w and 0 seconds for preheat) and while it has improved vapor production it is still less than the DNA40. Tried turning preheat to 50W with a soft hit and 1 second duration. No change. I am thinking it is the CSV file for nickel causing the issue (misreading temperature) as I have also adjusted the battery settings. (It was set at default 9 w/hour instead of the 14 w/h due to the 1300 MAH battery) which improved battery life but did nothing for vaping experience. Is there an updated CSV file for nickel coils? Is this just a calibration setting? I am on the latest prerelease firmware and escribe from 10-21-2015 and firmware from 9/30 and honestly even the public releases had the same results.
