    Mike n Tibs DNA Mods!

    Looks pretty good from here. Did you add any salt, vinegar, or dish soap to the dye? I use salt and vinegar, it seems to stabilize the color and help in absorption. I tried the dish soap once, but it didn't seem to help.

    Oh well, maybe not then. I could build a 200 for about the same $$.

    I'm thinking of doing a YIHI mod. sx350j kit on VT. reports 150 watts and temp limiting...hmmm. It will be my first; kinda tempting.

    Mike n Tibs DNA Mods!

    I've been concerned about that feature on one of mine, because it has failed once or twice. I tend to use it on one particular mod rather frequently, and I've been wondering if the feature could fail. Puts me in mind of a DNA 30 I have, which is about a year old, but was not installed into a mod...

    I've been doing Rit Dye and about 10 coats of acrylic sealant. I get great colors and the acrylic does a fine job. I'm not sure what I'm gonna do with the aluminum yet; barring I don't win the finish contest :)

    I went from 8.0 to 10, about 2 weeks ago. I haven't had a single issue with ten, until this thing with escribe. Updates happening in the background are happening seamlessly. My laptop has 7, and I find it has the icon to update to 10, I'm holding off. It's a toshiba and it gets fussy about any...

    Bummer. I have windows 10 now, and escribe reports a new update available, but it creates an error when I try to upload it, then just locks up, and I have to reboot the computer. I just got my mod running, so I'm going to stay away from escribe for a while, I believe they've got some sorting out...

    Mornin Steamer! Well my unit is fully charged and vaping up a storm :) I'm having a notification on the bottom of the screen on escribe for an update, but it's nonresponsive; do you have this? I just tried 64 watts, man that's hot, back down to 27. I'm thinking of some beefy coils to try some...

    Well, I finally got my BRD 200 up and running! My other battery had a bad cell, new battery and it's on :) The only thing that concerns me is it's charging slow. usb current is .206, is that normal? I wish I could put up a pic of my escribe monitor screen. Everything looks good to me, except the...

    I did it the same way, except I used two small flat tip screwdrivers on the bottom to pry up without marking up the finish, then pried down from the top after the "bump" was cleared on the bottom.
