Now if I can only figure out how to set something so that the DNA 60C circuitry queries the atomizer routinely for resistance rather than only during firing. In other words, when I attach an atomizer, the display should automatically show the current coil resistance rather than all zeros ... until I fire.

Is there maybe a downloadable theme here that I might be able to temporarily upload to my device just to see / copy how they did it? EDIT: @Wayneo ... nevermind. Actually your pointing me to the Power Options Settings in themes allows me to do EXACTLY what I need to do for my theme. Thank you sir

Thanks @dwcraig1 and @Wayneo for sorting me out on this. Greatly appreciate it !!!

@dwcraig1 ... thank you for all your patience and help. I'll have to fiddle with everything a bit more, but I've learned I can dial in a virtually perfect vape for me. I'm real close now. Just need to sort behavior of Evolv software and hardware. Couldn't have done it without EScribe or without your help. Thanks !!! I'm done for tonight. It's late and I'm old HA

One other thing of note @dwcraig1 ... If while in that profile I've set to 6.5W, I happen to manually change the wattage on the device with the +/- buttons ... the device will not go back to the 6.5W. It will fire at the whole number for which I've manually selected. Consequently I will need to configure a profile for any partial watt value and remember not to manually adjust the wattage on the device ... change the profile on the device instead. If that makes sense.

Good call @dwcraig1 and you nailed it. When set to 6.5W in the EScribe profile, the vape device I'm using and Evolv hardware displays 7W. But when I check Device Monitor in EScribe and take a pull, Current Puff Power is ~6.5W So for device display, the actual power setting is rounded to a whole number but the device is still powered IAW profile setting as proven by Device Monitor. Good call. Thank you for following up on this.

@dwcraig1 ... What I just now tried in EScribe ... By default as the device arrived, my Watts profile is profile 2 in EScribe. In the Settings > Power field of that profile, I changed the value to 6.5W Then I uploaded settings to device ... The DNA 60C display on my Cthulhu Sentinel immediately showed 7W ... the Evolv software rounded up a half watt. Hmmm ... thinking out loud, but maybe there's a setting somewhere in EScribe about how it handles decimal places or something ... dunno 🤷‍♂️

Thanks @dwcraig1

AH ... another good point & suggestion @dwcraig1 !!! Thank you. I hadn't looked at it in exactly that way. That still only allows for 8 settings. Should be enough ... IF the Evolv software actually calibrates and delivers to a fraction of a Watt ... 6, 6.2, 6.4 ... 7, 7.2 etc etc for example.

Overall, my impression is that Evolv has all their eggs in one basket with the DNA 60C and cater to the TC cloud & flavor chase crowd with little concern for the low watt Kanthal tootle vape guys. It is what it is I guess. I'm just trying to adapt it to my needs. Thankfully so far I can call it good ... but not awesome.

Thanks @dwcraig1 for the valuable suggestion !!! This EScribe newbie will have to play around with that idea. Just the suggestion gets my wheels turning and thinking maybe I can change the field in the existing Watt profile and save it. But at the end of the day, I would like to change Watts in smaller increments on the fly rather than drag out my Windows laptop and hookup the Sentinel each time I want to change fractions of a Watt. Yes, drag out my (old and slow) Windows Laptop. I hate Windows. My desktop computer is running Linux Mint LMDE 7 (so, Linux). I have in fact figured out how to dumb down my theme in ESCribe and hide unused or not needed profiles. Right now I only have two(2) screens on my DNA 60C. A lock screen and a main screen that only shows ohms, watts and battery level. That's all I need. There are a few other changes I'd like to see in the Evolv software: For one, I'd like to be able to run in total stealth mode and peek at the main screen with one quick press of the fire button only when needed. Oh and another thing I'd like to see is ohms updated as soon as I attach an atomizer. Right now I have changed the theme in EScribe to update ohms while firing but I'd like to see the DNA 60C circuitry query the atomizer routinely rather than only during firing.

Nothing to do with Evolv but just to add that the juice I vape is non-flavored 50/50 18mg I was a smoker for over 54 years (72 now) and the vape configuration I've chosen is as close as I can get to a replacement. Not a cloud chaser or into flavors. It's all about nic delivery for me.

Just this week I received a Cthulhu Sentinel with a DNA 60C I'm a tootle vaping rebuilder and running a Kayfun Lite (2019) RTA The build is 30 gauge A1 Kanthal on 2mm @ 1.8ohms I vape 50/50 PG/VG 18mg nic 1.8 ohms @ 6-7 Watts Obviously the DNA 60C is overkill for my vaping style. That said, I would like to see a service pack update that allows increments of 0.2 Watts or at least 0.5 Watt increments when vaping under 10 Watts. Right now the increments in the Watt profile are set to one(1) whole Watt with each press of the +/- buttons. I'm new to eScribe and have not found any settings to change the Watt Increment behavior.
