Received mine today, screws came out fine.

Using a protank 2 on it at the moment at 1.2 ohms, 10w. I tried taking it to 20w, burnt taste.
It does have a blemish around the fire button, I will have to live with it.


This is the silver I received from wetvapes. I think it's poor quality control. Looks like when they went to drill the hole for the fire button, something slipped. I guess wetvapes do not inspect the units first. I thought I could live with it. But I'm going to sell it on ebay, maybe I can get what I paid for it.

If you're willing to spend about 20 minutes of time you can easily fix that.

Go to an autoparts store and buy some Mothers Mag and Aluminum Polish. It's a mildly abrasive polish that is perfect for aluminum surfaces. I use it all of the time to remove scratches and curb rash from aluminum wheels.

If it can turn this:

Into this:

It can remove that little blemish from the button area.

Seems a lot easier than trying to sell a blemished clone and then replace it with another clone, losing money in the process.




Alternatively you could sand it with a 1,000, then a 1,200, and finish it off with a 2,000 grit sandpaper and remove the blemishes. If you do this method then rub the 2,000 grit sandpaper the same direction of the graining from the brushed metal to match the finish.

mfgs put vent holes in these things
They put them in there because vapers instructed them to years ago not because they care about safety or had a moment of divine inspiration. Most everything that can be purchased readily now was just something some vaper dude or dudette made in his garage a while back. Just saying

@mike From what I have seen in several pictures so far, that oopsie is not exactly rare.

+1 for some polish and a mini buffer if ya gotta.. just don't smash up the button. I think it looks sorta cool :)

I love vapers and want things to continue getting better and easier so more smokers can get over from the dark side. Vaping an ego with a carto is one thing. But too may people doing other dangerous things not having a clue they are dangerous, just because some dumb .... showed them in a vid and gave no warning. I am no hardened vet, just concerned guy.

I'll agree. High powered lithium flashlights don't have vent holes. I don't think it's necessary on a regulated mod.

It's deep swirl marks, and in a tight spot. I have mothers and it won't take that out. I may be able to use a dremel, but might make it worse. I'm still debating with myself, I still may keep it. Works great. Still trying to find the perfect coil build for it. I'm currently using a kayfun with 28g nano coil at 1.2 ohms, I need to go higher ohms though, once I get over 13.5w the ohms will flash, so I don't think its regulating properly. I will try a higher ohm coil.

Let me know if you hear from them. I sent them an email on tuesday afternoon about refunding my money since i cancelled the pre-order. I never got an email back from them but my order status changed to "refunded" on their site. HOWEVER, I've yet to receive the money back into my bank account. Sent an email at 8 am this morning, nothing yet.

I heard back yesterday. Well not personally but I got shipping notices that my "black" cana mod has been shipped. And I received a tracking number which is freakin awesome.

So no the didn't really reply to my email but it's obvious they got it and switched me to black and shipped it out!

Having read back a few pages I think some people are a little too worried about battery safety.

Battery safety was a HUGE issue a few years ago before IMR Safe Chemistry batteries came along. Those batteries would explode, catch fire, do all sorts of nasty things.

But this is 2014.

Safe Chemistry IMR batteries DO NOT explode or catch fire. (Counterfeit AW batteries not included) Even if deliberately shorted all they do is heat up to around 250-270 degrees and vent gases. You'll know something is wrong when smoke starts coming from your mech mod and it starts getting really hot, but it's NOT going to blow up in your face or hand no matter how you abuse it.

And that's in a mech mod, which the DNA30 and clones are not.

DNA and the new clones are regulated mods, not mech mods. If you try to exceed the designed specifications they SHOULD prevent you from firing. There seems to be some question as to how well this safety feature works on the DNA30 clones, but it shouldn't allow you to fire it if the ohms, wattages, or amp draw is outside of the preset limitations programmed into the chip. When working correctly a regulated mod removes almost all battery safety concerns. (Just make sure you put the battery in the right direction)

Being educated about battery safety is a good thing.... stuff can happend...... we are not worried but only saying that we need to be aware....and I'm glad more peeps are moving to regulated mods....mech mods have no built in safety features except maybe a vent hole....

It seems they all have that.. Just machine marks from making the dip for the firing button I suppose?
