Toysoldiers Posted October 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2015 Any tips on how to do that? Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
West84 Posted October 2, 2015 Report Share Posted October 2, 2015 I'll sold it to you :-DIt came with firmware updated and Wh pre-set to 14.43 Wh,nothing elseIf you have some other battery,try with that. I'm sure that is the battery pack problem. Turnigy nano-tech 1000 mAh lasts approximately like this VT200's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toysoldiers Posted October 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2015 Got the latest now and will vape at 60w 0.4 and see how long mine lasts lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hersh83 Posted October 7, 2015 Report Share Posted October 7, 2015 Definately an issue. I get a good half day at 115-150 w Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toysoldiers Posted October 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 7, 2015 I think all the DNA 200 are like this... Looking to use higher watts, you be needing other mods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popeye Posted October 7, 2015 Report Share Posted October 7, 2015 What resistance coil are you using to get that time at that power on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Campbell Posted October 8, 2015 Report Share Posted October 8, 2015 Can those of you having challenges with battery life change one of your display variables to pack voltage. This will assist in determining whether the issue is battery meter or battery life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toysoldiers Posted October 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2015 What would changing the package voltage help determine between the 2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popeye Posted October 8, 2015 Report Share Posted October 8, 2015 It will help because 1) you will be able to see how much sag there is on the battery and 2) its how weve been checking remaining capacity on series and parallel unregulated boxes for ages now, usually a pretty accurate method tbh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

megax Posted October 12, 2015 Report Share Posted October 12, 2015 Anyone have a problem with the battery percentage going down with almost every hit at 60w Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

megax Posted October 13, 2015 Report Share Posted October 13, 2015 i didnt expect great battery life but not it dropping every hit thats just insane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueridgedog Posted October 20, 2015 Report Share Posted October 20, 2015 megax said:i didnt expect great battery life but not it dropping every hit thats just insaneThere is amazing variation in the quality of packs out there, not just from one brand to the other but from lot to lot. Some testing mentioned here showed a 10% failure rate or reject rate. There are going to be a lot of folks with DNA200 mods that have packs that just don't stand up to use. The best thing to do is test the pack, verify the wh and the mAh and decide if performance issues are related to the pack or not. I have a great Turnigy 1300mAh pack that outperforms its rating and can easily go for two days, though that is in TC mode set at 440f with 200/200 watts on a single coil at .24 with modest to heavy vaping.

robby Posted October 24, 2015 Report Share Posted October 24, 2015 Hi guys, I have replaced my so called 1800mah Lionpower (pussycat) battery with the Turnigy nano Tech 1500mah. Into the second day after charging. Does anyone know what the soft cut off voltage is for this battery? thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VapingBad Posted October 24, 2015 Report Share Posted October 24, 2015 3.09 V is the standard/default for LiPos for the board Robby and should be just the ticket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nykademos Posted December 2, 2015 Report Share Posted December 2, 2015 Wouldnt all this be easier if the battery meter display was based on voltage rather than Wh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swainesmatee Posted September 7, 2016 Report Share Posted September 7, 2016 Toysoldiers said:I purchased a vt200 and i have been having problems with my battery. I only use it at 20watts and at 0.8ohms. I don't get even more than 4hrs of using it. I'm using my Istick 50w and it lasts me for 2 days. Is it possible I get a new battery sent to me? I can't even take it out with me to use because it does not last long enough. I paid £120 just so I can use it for a few hours at home. Please advise me in further what to? I have updated the software and changed the battery part from 9 to 14.43. It has improved but it still seems to be draining pretty fast compared to my other mods. There are not much to set for the battery as I have done some research online. I would like to be able to take my vt200 out with me and vape. Is there a warranty exchange? I have read others has last longer than a day using higher watts and temp control. My cells fully charged are Cell 1 4.20 Cell 2 4.20 Cell 3 4.20 Pack 12.60. Can barely get through have day now still using 20w @ 0.8. If I was to use it at 50w it would die in a couple of hours. Can someone please help me.
