    SXmini M Class (TEMP CONTROL)

    I barely use my DNA 200 as well. I haven't been able to use escribe since upgrading to El Capitan, so I can't use any of the extended features right now. So in essence, it's a high-powered, extremely bulky DNA40 for me, given the lack of a user menu system on the chip.

    Rebuildable Tank Atomizers - An Anthology, Pictorial, Builds and Reviews.

    Yeah, I've had zero flooding issues with the Merkava. With the Calix, it's sort of a matter of when not if. It may just be a matter of my how I wick the Calix, or it could be that the bridge in the Merkava does something to prevent flooding. Me dunno. All I know is that I have to keep an eye on...

    Rebuildable Tank Atomizers - An Anthology, Pictorial, Builds and Reviews.

    Finally picked up a Merkava along with an Xvostick. The Xvostick is great, but the Merkava has impressed me more than I expected it to. I was a bit disappointed when the Merkava showed up covered in oil and machining debris, but after 8 minutes of ultrasonic cleaning it came out looking squeaky...

    Boxer Mod 200W with Evolv DNA200 Temperature Control

    I used the green side of a scour sponge and decently warm water. Cleaned my Alumylon mod up quite well. I didn't add soap.

    is e-cig really banned from China to use?

    Depends on what one means by "China". Hong Kong is anti-vaping, but mainland China is pretty much an unregulated market. E-cigs are primarily made in Shenzhen, which is next to Hong Kong, but is in mainland China. To answer your friend's question, one has to understand that smoking in mainland...

    Yep, all our mods and attys are deemed tobacco-related under the alleged deeming rule.

    SXmini M Class (TEMP CONTROL)

    The DNA200 reminds me a lot of running linux. Sure, it has more nice features, but the hassle... meh. In a sense, both YiHi and Evolv are taking us closer to where we need to go, but they have yet to take the crucial step of making a community-based platform that would make utilizing these extra...

    *GEM: A new RTA by MarkBugs

    Kabuki is just a custom tank made to use the same BVC coils as the Aspire Nautilus, so I wouldn't expect it to act any different in terms of flavor. To get Gem/Erlk level flavor, someone has to come up with a better replacement coil. Maybe build something around a 2.5mm 0.07 ohm ni200 coil (or...

    SXmini M Class (TEMP CONTROL)

    Yeah, the DNA200 doesn't leave home too often. Part of it is that a 3S 1000mAh Lipo just doesn't last long enough for me, but also the lack of way to change preheat or TCR means it has to be set up in advance for each tank. One can do presets to some extent to overcome that (e.g., Titanium w/...

    SXmini M Class (TEMP CONTROL)

    How did you get the USB to work with the SXM? I have a filter for the DNA200, but when I put the SXMini in link mode it doesn't show up in the USB list.

    Boxer Mod 200W with Evolv DNA200 Temperature Control

    Does this only happen during the firing of the mod? If so, then it likely means that the voltage sag when attempting to fire goes below a threshold setting.

    Boxer Mod 200W with Evolv DNA200 Temperature Control

    Yes, if one has routine soldering experience, it's not the hardest build, but lots of people think soldering is easy to pick up. It's sort of like the illusion of DIY home construction. People think doing something is really easy because they watched a video. Then they actually do it and realize...

    Boxer Mod 200W with Evolv DNA200 Temperature Control

    Never had a problem with my Boxer mods, other than mistakes I made with the DIY version. The Boxer is not an easy build, but people often think their DIY skills are better than they actually are. Myself included. ;)

    My first recommendation as always is to clean everything ultrasonically to remove any problem residue. Second, there is an o-ring that is inside the chamber housing that goes up against the side of the build deck. Check that it isn't missing or damaged. After that, I'd probably run some tests...
