dna 250 My first DNA mod, looking for simple mod and related advice.

[µDavid]

Hello.

I have for some time been planning to buy a new mod and now I have concluded that a DNA 250 mod is the way to go, but it is very hard to find a mod I like, and I don't feel I have the time nor focus to build my own.

I can spend at most 150USD and I would prefer a 2*18650 mod(can accept 3*18650 as well) but those I have found which I like all have leather on them which I personally feel is a very weird choice. I regularly clean my mods with IPA mixed with 30% water to make it a sterilising agent, it isn't the sterilization I want but I simply can't stand having my mod in any way "contaminated" with e-juice and IPA or 70% IPA + 30% H2O is super effective of cleaning of any residue from e juice with can feel sort of oily.

May I ask someone who have a MOD with leather on it to tell me what they think about that material on a mod?

I have also had plans on getting a 1*18650 mod, but now that DNA 250 is available I am hesitant on getting a DNA 75 mod, simply because as I understands it the DNA 250 has better efficiency. But I can't afford both so I think I am going to get a dual or triple battery DNA 250 mod.

 

Do you have any suggestions for DNA 250 mods for up to 150USD?

 

I really wish that I could get a mod with a trigger such as the H-PRIV 200 has, but it doesn't look like there are anyone making DNA 250 mods like the H-PRIV 200W. Besides the H-PRIV I also own a Cuboid 150W and I like that simple construction, I would ideally want something simple, clean made out of metal.

 

I know this might be hard to help me with but I get quite confused while searching online for DNA 250 mods.

 

Regards

I continued to look around and now I have become interested in one of those Evolve reference design mods. I would for the first time consider an internal battery with the now 2A charger if that would bring a smaller form factor to the mod.

The price seems to become around 100USD if I put one of those together, I live in Sweden though so shipping will add some.

I have 2 leather mods. A lost vape efusion duo, and a Triade. Every couple months, I'll use some waterproof boot/shoe protector on them. They're now both a year old, and have aged like a well worn leather jacket. They have a warmth in my hand or when resting against my leg. Still very happy with both.

 

I'm a round button kinda guy, but the Evolv reference are square so I don't have one.

I have a therion 166w with dna 250 chipset. I use tc mode which works awesome with this device. One disadvantage of this mode is the letters on it gets erased so quickly. I’ve been using it for more than a month.

I have a Vaporshark DNA250 that has a nice feel. Isn’t leather but a soft plastic coating that cleans and wears good. Has built in lipo battery. Only a 900 mah. I updated to a 950mah to get a little more life out of it. They aren’t cheap though. Around $175 at Vaporshark online. I like having a lipo versus my Hcigar DNA250 that takes 3 18650’s . Battery life is so much better with 3 18650’s though.

I keep a battery pack close to recharge the lipo faster.
