5 Watts at a time Increments

[Buellbloke]

What happened to the 5 watt incremental option. 1 watt at at a time is pants, .5 why would you! The options in escribe are pointless being there as really there is no option unless we actually get decent options. First thing I noticed when got my VShark DNA200 back up and working was the no 5 watts option.

hum....... been a long time since the DNA200 came out and if memory serves me (at 70 years of age) the    1  5    and 10      settings are for Temperature adjustment (F)..... watts adjustment is    .1   .2  .5  and 1.0 if I am remembering correctly....     

Other Moderators can correct me if I'm in error....

Sadly I don't remeber a 5 watt increment either.

Everything in the vape scene is a long time when really its not very long at all, 2015 my VShark 200 was created, escibe was also created to compliment it. I clearly remember having 5 watt increments and personally it suited me just fine. I was also involved with the rDNA40 from small screen to big screen and the beginings of temp control and temperature sensing, just ask Brandon if you dont believe me as hinted to me about a bigger device coming out back in the rdna 40 day ha ha

You were right there in the early days, early days june 2015 its hardly a long time ago. Retird just looked at your post under where Brandon posts about the simulator. Look and feel defo had a 5.0 watts increase option. Not my fault your so old you forget everything lol

Wayneo your too new to remember joining in 2016 lol

I have been deep in Evolv stuff also, since the Darwin days, then the Kick, then the DNA 20D, 30, Kick2,  25, DNA 40 (Temp Control),  1 amp charger board,  DNA60, 75, DNA200, and etc, etc,  including  the latest DNA Go board ..... just ask Brandon.... ha ha..... but you may be right about the 5 watt increments but I'm just not remembering it that way....   ☺️

I had a couple Kick 2's, I also know Evolve used to make wheelchair motors, that Brandon got them into the vape scene with the Darwin. I was involved in the  so called early days thrashing out the temp sensing. though was mostly on facebook groups from what I remember. The DNA/Yihi wars and the introduction of the atty lock feature lol The batch of corrupted small screen boards. The whole it was hard to find the option to change the increments argument that is often posted on the net. Have owned a lot of their boards but only just now about to aquire a 250C. I was one of the first to aquire a VShark DNA200 in the UK via Vaporshark Miami on pre-order. Not many knew they shipped as a gift so as to not incur import duty. First thing I looked for once got this old Shark 200 running again. Its possible unless it was firmware updated it still had it but was too busy dealing with a non functioning balance charger. I've since damaged the extention cable so no longer have a working screen on the Shark 200. My board is a first edition with the screen ziff connector exiting out the right side edge of the board. Aquired a used Therion and tried to apply it to that is when i discovered it no longer existed.

hum.... if I recall,  Vapor Shark had their DNA 200 boards specifically made for the Shark from  Evolv and they used their own charger board....  never bought one just for that reason....  all of the beta versions of the 200 I tested for Evolv (before they released the 200) are still working perfectly to this day.....  but at any rate, whether of not the 200 had a 5 watt increment in the past it does not have it now....  as you know Evolv constantly improved the boards and the EScribe software over Evolv's history....

Zip high Speed Charging, 2amp charging as long as you had a 2amp outlet. You cant see a proprietary board fitted to my shark 200 so must have just been a chip. I have never seen the Shark pull 2amps about 1.4, on the PC via escribe it only pulls half an amp . One thing this dummy did discover is when I used a wall outlet sometime my device would say 98%, assumed it had stopped charging and depleted. In fact the board pulls off 3% and tops it back up, pulls it off and tops it back up. Clever stuff 😎

@Buellbloke I'm Feb 2016, so you were here a solid 5 months before me. 
My very first puffs were TC on a 40 and RDNA40. Both Sharks with that less than stellar rubberized finish. Like @retird my 200's are all still working fine. 

I just checked and the software goes all the way back to the EScribe 2015-07-16 version. EScribe 1.0.34 was the first with the ability to change the Watts Increment (Theme tab). Knock yourself out if you want to try and load it. I don't think it will but you can always try. Perhaps if you have a spare PC.

I found that Shark finish always survived for me probably due to always using "shark skins", currently have 12 of them. When the rDNA60 came out it used the the rdna40 box, vaporshark claimed it used the billet construction from the Shark 200 but that was a lie and complete bullshit as was the same zinc alloy of the rDNA40 weight was identical to the 40. That aside the rDNA40 skins were sheap as chips being sold off, so grabbed lots for pannies as fit the rDNA60 perfectly as same box. My Shark Dna 200 is working fine, I fractured the long extender to the screen so no longer have a screen but it works fine as have escribe. I tried an earlier version already 1.2 to no avail. Do you have a link to that version 1.0.34 my current PC will do just fine, if its doable I will do it or at the very least have a go. I sent Brandon a message though seein as he's not been on the forum since 2018 he might not reply. I mentioned him hinting at the dna200 back when we were all into temp sensing and wanting more power/battery life and did He remember the 5.0 watts increase increment option.  Am sure if I dug back far enough Mike Vapes has a video mentioning it though am not hard pressed or desperate to prove it.

Same place the software has always been. Unfortunately all those versions have been lumped into 1 post, and they're not in order, but it's in there.

Probably, but I wouldn't if I had a choice. You probably already have multiple versions of the drivers, etc. A clean install on a machine never having run escribe is what I would do personally. (I used to run multiple versions years ago because the last Feb 2016 update was the last time setting the internal mod resistance worked properly on the 200. IIRC file extensions changed, even the USB Product ID changed for the board. If you're not really savvy with lower level computer stuff you'll have nothing but frustration)

No need to prove anything to us. @retird and I just don't remember ........ we never said you were wrong. 

[retird]

I would be very leery installing such an old version of EScribe or  older firmware updates....  especially on my main computer....  🤔

I cleaned out all traces of escibe, also from users and from the registry but alas even the early version only gave minus than 1 watt or 1 watt. Maybe I imagined it, maybe it was an early bug they fixed. personally I think its a great idea for power users who like to scroll in increments of plus 5 watts rather than use profiles.

Don't know if you're aware, but with the 250C you can change the watt increment to 5 or even 10 watts at a time.

Thanx Dude 😎ha ha just shows somebody else had a great idea an idea I know was there from before. I've not downloaded the 250C escribe yet, so far only one of the themes.

Bit of of a strange one these Lost Vape Paranormal DNA250C's, sold out world wide. Lost Vape informed me they would bring something out again but better. Now all of a sudden a batch of Stab Wood models has appeared on the scene but only select vendors are stocking them. Lost Vape are a British designer using the chinese to manufacture the mods, not a great deal of profit on a device, with the board costing around $80 obviously discounted for bulk purchase. £104 UK cost delivered, though some vendors are trying for £149.99.

You winding me up, I couldn't find it 😃

No, not at all. It’s all a part of the theme you’re using. You’ll need to go into Theme Designer and highlight wherever you see a watt value. 
THIS PART IS JUST FROM MEMORY AND WORDING MIGHT BE WRONG, but close. 
after you select/highlight the watt parameter over on the right about ⅔ of the way down the right side of the screen you should see coil power. Just below that it’s options. Inside that is step size and decimal places. That shows 1 2 5 10. So you’ll want zero decimals and 5 or 10 for the increment. 
once you know what you’re looking for it’s pretty quick. 
some theme authors allow you to change within the theme

 THAT change needs to be made wherever you’re allowed to change the watts and at least once on the main screen. In my old tired mind I think it was 3 or 4 places on the default theme.

I tried it as your sceen help is ideal but still dont move at increments of 5 lol. I suppose it no big deal anymore as not a great hardship. Had a try at Replay with the Crown 4 in watts, which works sweet. But really though I cant tell the difference vaping a vertical coil. It still gets hot, obviously never dry hits until coil gets old. Maybe it will work better towards the end of the coils life. Though the flavour by then is so shit am hoping for that dry hit so can change it lol

It's primary purpose is with RDA's and RTA's as these are Horizontal coils which cant keep up with high hitting lung hits on the latter and abviously dripping on the prior.

Same as on the non C devices, did you remember to upload settings to the device after making changes? Also did you find more than just place to change?

Replay just attempts to replicate the saved puff, and they'll just stay the same. It's a coil saver, allowing you to vape a coil/cotton dry if you want to change flavours even.

Course I uploaded the settings dude am old and retarded not stoopid, several places. I even tried to edit the fonts but squished them in other places so imagine they are set to their max. I have been known to over do hitting even a vertical and causing a dry hit so am continuing to use replay as a safety feature 😎

Think that was .5. On early Vaporshark DNA 200 devices you could I believe increase the watts by 5 watts at a time. When you own a DNA device because they last so long and are reliable  you tend to avoid other mods of oriental persuasion or at least I do. Upon repairing my my Shark 200 I noticed the feature was no longer available and have since been informed I imagined it. I do have to say now that with the Replay feature of the 250C am using smaller than 5watt increments so the point is void and somewhat uselsss. Now you've caught up and surpassed this thread 🤪
