Well if we ever need boards we know who to call Mike :) Nice stash!
LOL That was actually an old co-op I ran.

However, I do have enough parts to build a new mod every year for the rest of my life, and my mods last for years with nothing more than a battery change.

    @mikepetro
    Mike, some have speculated LED screens have a 10 year lifespan, whether being used or not.
    Do you have any firsthand knowledge about this?
    Hoping to hear my stash will last at least 20 years...:thumb:

    No, I dont, its a gamble.
    I am betting that replacement screens will be able to be found though.
    WOrst case I will DNAMate on my phone, or Escribe on the PC, to connect if need be, my settings rarely change unless I put a new coil.

    How bout doing a tut on building the mods?
    A DNA250 or a DNA75 would fit in one of these enclosures.
    HANA MODZ DNA 250 200 75 Do It Yourself ( DIY ) Mod kit Billet 11 colors | eBay

    For $50-$60 you can build a complete, and very durable Mod.

    This guide I did for a Co-op I ran for a very similar project would be very close to what you would need to do. The main difference is that on these smaller enclosures you would solder the battery directly to the board instead of using the quick disconnect I used for the larger enclosure.

    ERM+BuildGuide.pdf

    ETA: Also, on these eBay kits the 510 is already installed so you wouldnt have to worry the 510 portions of my Guide. You just solder the loose end of the kits 510 wire to the board.

    So the DNA75 is up to 75 watt and DNA250 is up to 250 watts? Is there any difference between the DNA75 and the DNA75 color?
    The main difference between them is the button layout.The 75 only has 2 smaller buttons at the bottom and the 75 color has 3 small buttons.I think the board size is the same,but needs a different face plate for each board.

    Good point, the Mod Kits I linked to are for the Mono, they are not milled for the color version.

    Do they sell DNA Go? To make tiny mods yet?
    They are reluctant to sell the GO boards to DIY Modders because of the very narrow resistance range.


    "The difficulty with selling Go boards to modders is that, unlike most of the DNA boards, the Go has a VERY narrow working range in terms of resistance. Basically .2-.4 ohms, and that's total resistance, not cold resistance.

    We're hesitant to turn it loose in a mod context, because we fear that a lot of people will end up disappointed. It'll run with a larger range, of course, but the performance will be poor. It really needs pods tailored to it to shine."

    Well I didn't see anybody mention this yet. But the DNA250 can only do 250 watts with 3 cells. Although the DNA250C with the International firmware can do 300 watts with 3 cells and 400 watts with 4 cells.

    Here is Vaping with Vic tests the Triade 250C at 300 watts at 24 minutes into it.
