Just some feedback after owning the mod for 2 weeks, the chassis is painted not anodised how well it will hold up is still unknown, but there is pretty much a ongoing fiasco with mod coatings. And really only a few companies could offer a cerakote coating the US possibly being the cheapest someone like VaporShark instead they have that crap rubberised coating don't even start me on how crap it is. I have read so many times how its better my conclusion lies and more lies! Owned 4 rDNAs all crap and repaired about a dozen all had coating issues so if its bad luck from 12 different people we must have bad luck?!#?!
I have no brand bias I simply don't care who makes the mod its only how good IMO the mod is and I would take a VT in a heartbeat over a rDNA, the rDNA does have wireless and 2A charging but the minuses outweigh the pluses
The screen positioning is out on the VTs so you need to mod the screen cradle and reaffix it simple job. If you are handy with a knife. The VT seems to be more consistent at reading resistances but this maybe due to the stronger spring in the 510 or the V5 DNA40 its definitely better than the V4 in the rDNA but the 510 is recessed and given problems in half the rDNAs I have seen.
The battery cap is an issue for some people but I only use USB charging as I am lazy and have had 3 SXMinis so for me its not an issue the SXMini is easier as I never use a coin given the positive connection is sprung so you can push and turn once you work the threads. The VT has a fixed positive pin so all adjustments and variation in battery length is made with the battery cap.
No issues with the button placements and to quote Mark Todd if you press the up/down buttons instead of the fire button you are an 'Idiot'
the switches look good for 100K so no real issues there .
The flush 510 is a pain but that's my opinion as you will have at least one Atty that will scratch the top of the mod but such is life a raised 510 would ruin the aesthetics and vapers are all about the looks these days.
Mark Todd commented on the mod having no soul I would probably kill all his family to get the artisan handmade and pricey mod he gets for review every week!
It's fairly light but good in the hand as a left hander all C frame mods work for me and compared to a M Class its a feather.
Its 500mAh charging so a Samsung 30Q can take a few hours to complete a charge cycle.
Easy one of the best DNA mods I have owned and i have had a few
its small enough to carry around still bigger than a Cloupor mini or Hana mini for example but I find the CM too small and the 72mm high Hana mini is a right handed mod and unless you mod it has a crappy fire button and or a lipo/18500.
