evilkaos Posted May 28, 2017 Report Share Posted May 28, 2017 Hey I just got a new Therion DNA166 about a week ago. And suddenly today it won't turn on. I have tried with different batteries to no avail. When I plug in the power cord I see a very dimly lit screen. I plugged it into EScribe because I saw another post that said to change it from 3-cell to 2-cell but that didn't help. It was working amazingly until today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retird Posted May 28, 2017 Report Share Posted May 28, 2017 What does the "Pack" and "Cell" voltages say in Device Monitor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

retird Posted May 28, 2017 Report Share Posted May 28, 2017 So the device was working but quit.... did it quit right after you may have changed batteries or changed some other settings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that I come to think of it, yeah it hasn't worked since I swapped batteries Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retird Posted May 28, 2017 Report Share Posted May 28, 2017 With no other changes but changing the batteries you might swap batteries back to see if that gets it.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilkaos Posted May 28, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2017 I have tried both pairs of batteries, and both pairs have worked in the past Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giz_60 Posted May 28, 2017 Report Share Posted May 28, 2017 Don't know if this might be your problem, but the Therion's have had a problem with the wires from the battery sled to the board coming loose, on the sled side. Just a thought...😏 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

retird Posted May 28, 2017 Report Share Posted May 28, 2017 Possible that a wire may have broken in the battery sled on one of the battery posts.... if in warranty you might contact Lost Vape link in my sig line below.... others have ran across this also... opening the device will void the warranty from Lost Vape.... my best guess absent opening the device since it happened right after you changed batteries....

The B+ and B- to the board come from the top of the battery sled & the balancing tap, the bottom, so you can check the ground connection without opening the device up. With an ohm meter, you can check for continuity between the ground of the 510 connector & the ground battery post on the TOP connections. Edit: I just verified that on my working 166...

Only problem is that I don't have an ohm meter and don't easily have access to one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matix805 Posted October 31, 2017 Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 I put brand new Samsung 25r 18650’s in my new therion dna 166 with the dna250 board. When I plugged it in to escribe and uploaded the settings under the mod tab the battery name is dual25r. How does that work? Does the board know what batteries where first put in the mod?

retird Posted October 31, 2017 Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 can you post a screenshot showing battery name "dual25r".... as far as I know the DNA does not detect different battery manufacturers... @Matix805 posted a screenshot in another thread and I replied over there....The CSV file is named "Dual25R" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
