I have been in numerous threads with people who want to be talked into a device.... or out of one.


I don't want to buy a Hana clone. Might I stay, please?

I can say Clou-purrrr if that helps. ;)


Thank you , but that is not tolerated in this thread , either you buy sight unseen or get out lol.

I bought 3 all work great first 2 were version ones 3rd one is the updated version all three I had for weeks with the only issue is the 2 clicks occasionly from sleep mode. They rock I might be one of the lucky ones but I doubt it these are solid . Get one or if ur really hard up
I might give ya one of mine I really don't need 3 lol....

I am leaning in that direction , (i'll send my address asap ) appreciate it Steve , always had a good feeling about you lol. In all seriousness i think they are probably fine , i am a procrastinator (in case anyone hasn't noticed and decision making is a ..... for me) .

To all that despise my presence on this thread , deal with it , i'm staying, think i'll just observe from the background but i'm still here.

herb....just saying.... take all the time you need to make your decision....what you want or need is what matters and you need to be comfortable in your decision....you are taking a systematic approach in evaluating the comments made in this thread.... good luck... no need to be in the background either...

Yep.... many factors to a great vape..... and what "floats my boat may not float yours and visa-versa" I like my vaping simple and as "fiddle free" as possible... here is mine:

All devices are DNA variable wattage using 1200 mah (20 C rated) rechargable batteries and all set to the same wattage setting.
All cartomizer tanks have 3.0 ohm pre-drilled cartomizers installed.
My juice selection is limited to the same 3 or 4 that I use.

Each device gives me 8 to 10 hours of vaping and never reaches cut-off before I recharge.
Tanks never leak and never any burnt taste. Gives me the desired vapor and flavor.
Cartomizers changed out when flavor begins to drop off, usually around 4 to 5 days if used continually.

I buy the cartomizers in bulk "usually 100 at a time" at a very good price. About a years supply.
I buy my e-liquid in quantities of 100 ml. bottles or larger.

Typical day:

Grab fully charged device.
Fill the 4 ml. tank with e-liquid (through a fill hole). Total e-liquid in tank/cartomizer is 5 ml.
Vape 8 to 10 hours. If out-and-about I take a second identical setup as a spare just in case of a failure (haven't had one yet).

Fiddle free.....satisfies my needs and desires....and that's all that matters to me....

Everybody eventually finds "what floats their boat" and that is what matters.... :)
I love dripping, I hate juice splattering everywhere. Thats tough to balance out. Cats RDA looks good for that, but I dont like the brass shell.

Nuh uh. If you're stayin', I'm stayin'! :D

I do agree with retird, herb. It's your decision making process and your business and your future device... so take all the time you need.

Afternoon vape and a coke... Life is good... Five weeks ago today I received the Hana Modz clone and been using it pretty much exclusively ever since without any major issues... Prior to receiving the cana I was only using mechs with mostly rda's around .2-.5 ohm coils... Occasionally I would use an aqua .4-.7ohm, Russian91 and kayfun lite+ .8-1ohm... I built a magma .7ish ohm dual coil and been vaping it on the cana at max power setting 30w for the last five weeks... Only time I haven't been using the cana magma combo is during the brief moments of cleaning and rewicking... I seem to have found a very satisfying vape for my tastes... One of the things I like the most about the cana is the consistent vape until the battery is just about dead... Now I want to try more regulated devices like an okr box mod, raptor chip mod, sx350 device, and or the 18650 vapor shark that's supposedly coming out soon... Maybe even pick up another Hana Modz clone that's been revised with less quirks... Although, even if I had another v1 exactly like the one I have now I would be happy because in my opinion this cana works well with no major issues...

After I used it for about four days it started to need an extra click to fire out of sleep... According to ohms law, with my cheap inline volt meter and cheap ohm reader, I'm getting about 28w at the 30w setting... Ohms reading is less than .1 off, at .7ish closer to .8 it's reading .7... Only a couple times have I seen the watt setting go down .1 when coming out of sleep mode but it has never happened with power lock enabled... When not in stealth mode I have noticed the screen turning itslef on... I don't use the USB charger but did test it and I do get a green light when battery is full and it doesn't overcharge... If hot glue is white or clear while epoxy is yellow then it appears my cana has no hot glue at all and only globs of epoxy after taking off the cover to have a look-see... I've been chain vaping on and off going through 10ml+ per day with the .7ish ohm build and never seen a too hot message... Going through around three batteries per day and battery tray is still secure... Haven't stripped the battery door screws yet but if I change them I think I'll put some more weak type screws in because it may help prevent the aluminum case screw hole threads from stripping...

If buying a china clone with shady quality control is like playing the lottery then I consider myself a winner with this cloupor Hana Modz dna 30 cana chana chi-na30 mod or whatever you want to call it... I think this mod is recommendable to anyone wanting to try a regulated consistent almost 30w capable vape at .6 ohm and above that can't afford a genuine dna 30 device or that doesn't want to spend a lot on one... I would not give a list of twenty five potential quirks with my recommendation but may mention that quality control isn't the greatest in china although that should be able to go without saying... These are just my opinions and thoughts based on my personal experiences with the v1 cloupor that I received. And hey, my opinions and seventy bucks will only get me another cloupor mod so take it for what it's worth...
I've got both the Okr-6(35w) and the Okr-10(50w),both use duel 18650's.I've owned the ok-6 for about 4 years and have had to replace the connector only once.I've had the ok-10 for about 6 months and so far no problems.For about $60 it's hard to imagine anything working better than these plus I don't have to bother with annoying menus like I do on my Nivel box.
I ordered a clone last week to toss in my glove box for emergencies.I'll report back in a few months.
P.S. The Okr chips are available for about $8-10. for those interested.

Thank you for your comments LLaV , very helpful , although your second paragraph threw me for a loop after reading your first . Please keep us informed .

Thank you very much Katdarling , appreciate the support but these guys don't intimidate me , i have been through and survived life's most difficult and trying periods so this is nothing by comparison.

I can see how my back and forth can irritate people , i mean no harm or disrespect though , just my individual quirks lol.

I'm still waiting for delivery (posted earlier in this thread that it shipped). While I'm waiting, I picked up a Tobe Atty clone copper, 2 VTC5 batteries & and ohm reader. I've been using my eVIC to check resistance, I figured I would just get a reader since I was in the store.

I just built a dual coil .9 ohm setup in the Tobe and I'm just vaping while I wait for the tracker to update. USPS is so damn slow at times.

The Tobe looks very nice on my copper Nemesis clone. I can't wait to pull one coil and throw that bad boy on the Cana. I think the orange and copper will look very nice.

I even ordered 150 ml of juice from Heather's Heavenly Vapes to arrive on Monday. My wife said quote "It feels like your getting ready for your baby to be born".

Here's 2 pics of the Tobe and the ohm reader while we all wait:

This is about like me. I have 2 Vaper Shark DNA's (20 and 30) and use prepunched DC cartomizers in 1.5 and 2.0 ohm. I have tried many other tanks, drippers etc. but keep going back to cart tanks. I use 36+ nic so the 1200 mah last me a long time. I carry a 14500 mech. with a 1.6 ohm BDC as a backup. The DNA clone with a purple efest 3100mah batt. doesn't last as long as the 1200mah VS.

These DNA mods seem to be made for cart tanks, don't know why more people don't try them. This clone with a 2 ohm cart at 12 watts puts out almost as much vaper and flavor as my Russian 91 at 1.3 at 15 watts (30pg/70vg).

Where do you buy in bulk from? I have been getting mine from different places when they are on sell + using coupons getting them for $1 to $1.25 apiece. I usually get 25 to 50 at a time. How big and how many holes do they have? Most of the time I have to drill the holes bigger.

Sent ya a PM..... edit for it... the dual coils minimum quantity is as shown on the web site.. not what I quoted.... Boge's is 200 minimum quantity...

Yep... 70% Vg doesn't wick as well as say a 70pg/30vg juice so larger holes help.....

I am fully aware. It's just that I was getting "MY" perfect vape with my fogger on my mech and haven't been able to replicate that on the Cana so far. Reason why I didn't want to run sub-ohms was because of battery life and because, to my eyes, it makes sense that you go up in ohms since you now have the power to regulate how much current is thrown into the wire, regardless of it's resistance.

re; the fogger V4;
-tightly twisted 32 and 30 ga. A1 (gets to a nice temperature without the extended heatup time of fatter wire and fits on those short machine screws).
-lightly annealed (don't let it get bright cherry red).
-11 wraps around a #38 drill bit (0.101), (at this size the wicks are easier to fit into the juice channels).
-lightly torched and squeezed together (again not bright cherry red, it makes the wire/s brittle).

once both coils are installed and the hot spots squeezed out i end up at 0.9 ohms. 22 watts gives me a great vape on a cana mod.

it is a bear to build the fogger but once you figure it out it really is an awesome vape, kind of like an auto dripping magma.

The dual coil set up can be a lil tricky with the screws especially with lower gauge wire and getting it to wick properly can be a pain but when it's hitting right it's just heavenly

Thanks, I'm just getting the hang of dual coils their is a bit of a learning curve.
The other day I went through 10 coils trying to setup my new magma.
I gave up and threw in the coils it came with. 2 32 gauge 5 or 6 wraps on 2 mm silica.
I couldn't believe it it is hitting great and blowing huge clouds go figure

I hear those okr chips are good and reliable. For about sixty bucks I'm going to guess that's the cost of parts and you built it yourself. I've been considering trying to build one. Been watching videos on how to solder as I have absolutely no experience whatsoever. Also been looking at wiring diagrams, schematics, etc. from mamu builds and others. It's like another language to me. Lol. If I do decide to try then the first one will cost me a bit more as I'll need soldering iron, clipping stand thing, tools, and whatnot. I'm interested in building the okr 10 and the other one that company came out with which I think is called the okl2 t20. Also the raptor chip which is hard to come by at the moment.

Herb, sorry I didn't want to throw anyone for any loops. Was trying to be as cut and dry as possible. I like the box for what it's worth and the quirks and issues I've found with mine don't bother me. I can add that it only needs a second click to fire out of sleep sometimes. Maybe around 3-5% of the time. I'm going to guess the next time I have any additional information it will be when the mod is dead, hopefully.
