Spector NS5 RD Posted March 13, 2017 Report Share Posted March 13, 2017 hi Scott. can you post a screenshot of Device monitor with the "board and room temperature" boxes ticked. you might try and re-flash the current firmware you're using.

Scott Novosel Posted March 13, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2017 it is reading 110 room temp...how do I reflash?thanks for reply Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spector NS5 RD Posted March 13, 2017 Report Share Posted March 13, 2017 i'm actually more interested in board temp while sitting idle. with your DNA 75 connected, in EScribe's top left hand corner "TOOLS" - "APPLY SERVICE PACK" - open the DNA 75 service pack list - select the current firmware you are running on your DNA 75. it will reinstall the FW. this may or may not fix it. most likely not but worth a shot.

Scott Novosel Posted March 13, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2017 It does not include statistics in screen shot for whatever reason if that's what you mean. I click the screenshot button and that's what it gives me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spector NS5 RD Posted March 13, 2017 Report Share Posted March 13, 2017 yep, sorry Scott, one of the board's on-board temp sensors has failed. is mod ridiculously hot to the touch? either way the board needs to be replaced. is the warranty from the vendor you purchased the mod from still good? if not, evolv warranties the board for 1 year from the date of purchase. i would contact Volcano first and if they don't help you, contact evolv and open a help ticket. link is my sig.edit... you get ejuice inside the mod? that could be affecting the sensor.

Scott Novosel Posted March 14, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2017 Thanks chunkybutt.... Figured it was toast. The board is soldered... Will I have to tear it apart or ship the whole mod to evolve? I already opened a ticket... Just trying to get a jump on things. This device is past warranty... The chip is not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The chip is not wait for response first from evolv. they may have you send in the entire device. either way, they'll get you back up and running.

Galang Posted April 17, 2017 Report Share Posted April 17, 2017 i have similar problem like u scott, now how was your mod , is already repaired ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Novosel Posted April 17, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2017 I've been too lazy to mail it out... But evolve is all over it. You mail the whole mod in and they take care of it. I imagine if it's under 1 year warranty... Your good to go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FairCold Posted July 9, 2017 Report Share Posted July 9, 2017 I resolve this issue by removing the yellowish plastic that wrapping dna board. So far i haven't received too hot error. It has been two days. Why is it expensive mods keep having issue, used evic vtc mini for two years without any problem. Thia is my second store bought dna that having problem. The one that i diy myself dont have any problem, except the look of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCMemphis Posted December 21, 2017 Report Share Posted December 21, 2017 Just bought my Lavabox M last week and I'm having the same issue already. Installed Escribe to get info about the mod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spector NS5 RD Posted December 22, 2017 Report Share Posted December 22, 2017 @JCMemphis My best guess is the NTC sensor (board's temp sensor) on the board has failed or has been knocked off, either do to drop or during mod assembly. The mod is cool to the touch? Contact Volcano Ecigs about a return. Evolv does warranty the board itself for 1 year, there is that route as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Took the box back to the dealer who sold it to me and they gave me a new one right after checking the issue. I guess they have encountered it before and just takes care of the warranty as part of their customer service. To answer your question, yes the mod is actually very cold. Thanks for the tip, at least I know what route to take if this 2nd unit still shows the same symptoms. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
