IMR options ?

[phoenikas]

Do we have the option to use single or dual IMRs with the accessory board and limit the Max Output from the software ?   

[John]

No. The DNA 200 runs from three cells only. 

Those three cells can certainly be IMR cells if you like, but it must be three.

That was the main think I was hoping to come out of this board! Like how the YiHi SX350J allows the output wattage to be doubled to 120 watts depending on whether it's being used with single 18650 or 2s 18650. That really sinks that we have to switch over to Lipo packs, and now use two battery platforms. It should have an option for 3.7v, 7.4v, 11.1v, and maybe even 14.8v inputs voltages. Too bad.

Thank you John for your reply

I was hoping also for 3.7v & 7.4v base power options so I can work on presenting devices with more style than the regular "brick" / box. Surely for a device that we carry and use daily , power is important but also elegant style and small devices are also very important for this market. I want to use our USA's finest electronics but 3S IMR/LiPO packs limit my designing options. I would love a DNA100+ at the smallest possible form factor and with the new unique hardware/software features you presented. 

Still, congratulations for this great new board made in U.S.A.

I've just received my 3s 950mah battery and I am quite shocked and pleased with the small size of it. I think that it will still allow for interesting enclosure designs.

@John, so 3S1P 15C 18650 would work fine right? Do you have a schedule for your accessory board? Cheers & vape on.

Yes it will work if wired correctly 
But reverse batt protection look more complexe need like 8 mosfet to work for removable batt

3x18650 is pretty big and heavy lipos pack are way smaller + round cell = lot off wasted space
