Left leaking tank on device overnight. Board temp spiked at 271deg. No fire.

So I had been working on this cheapy dual coil rta from eBay that had potential. I could tell it was a matter of getting the wicking right. It’s the Fuuny FZ if anyone cares to look it up. Anyway I was messing with it while my wife got ready for us to go out. 

We went out, came home I didn’t get back to playing with the tank until the morning when I realized I had left it on my lavabox M75 with the dna75 chip and it was absolutely covered in juice. The sprite for board temperature every time I tried to fire it so I connected to escribes device monitor and sure enough the board temp was pegged out at 271 or whatever the max is. 

I’ve extracted the board and plugged into escribe and still get the same board temp error. 

Am I hos

Now that the board's out, I'd give it a thorough cleaning with IPO. Wipe down all the components. The buttons, are 4 part, you can remove top clip, rubber, then flat piece to get to what soldered. Wipe them all, re-assemble, and test.

Good luck.

I just finished one this morning that I got from the Ebay guy. It was a Hotcig DX200

Does the Lava box use a daughter board for the switches?

These are not clones, choose no battery, he will include one. He included two with mine.

This is what I bought to transplant the chip into but in afraidcthe board is dead. I’m not sure what you mean by sister board. It’s kust the board that would screw into the front of the mod with the screen being held snugly with some foam padding behind  it

The screen sticks to the board. Be sure the screen comes with the board and not sticking in mod.

Carefully pry off the metal cover of the switch (red arrow). Try to bend it as little as possible, remove rubber piece, remove small metal disc.

Ok. Am I looking for anything in particular once I get in there?

So I did some experiments and found some 91% iso and gave the board a good clean with a q tip, taking off the button mentioned above but there wasn’t much juice on the board really. Could it have maybe auto fired for a while or does it have some kind of built in fail safe. Also, does the board itself keep a log of what happened? I may have already screwed up by trying to reset to factory settings. Anyway here’s some pics. Notice room temp reading at 100deg when it was more like 55-60 in that room

I assume my lavabox warranty is gone but evolv? Anyword. I already have a Hana mod style box coming that I was gonna swap this into since I didn’t like the single 18650 setup anyway but I also bought a boxer dual 20700 250 and don’t want to buy another Dna board for my dns build. Lemme know.

Just wanted to update. Had to scratch the itch that I could build it if I had everything working so I may hope evolv sees this or reach out to them to see if I can get the dna75 board fixed. Here I turned the single lavabox m into a dual 18550?dna75 device. Still showing the too hot warning though.

With the Hana box kit from Ebay and a DNA75 board that Psyclone Mods was almost giving away one of the moderators here built me a Lipo powered DNA75 mod.

The included 3s 950 Lipo from the kit was used but first it was opened and had it's cells wired from series to parallel (DNA75 is 3.7 v not 11.1v), a some what tricky operation and not for the faint of heart.  

So not including shipping or labor this is about a $20.49 mod.

The deal on the DNA75 boards is long gone.

Which reminds me. Will I just be able to buy a 1s2p 3.7v battery that fits?  Pics of the modified battery?
