I agree...but do that one 2nd unless you're used to modding. Do a "simple" one 1st....protect the investment in the DNA20.
The MV kit is fine for I think it's $18.00 ish. It needs 14500's.

Also there's many youtube vids on "how to solder". Stickies in the Modder's section too.

Here is a simple mod I just made from Radio Shack and Fasttech parts. Very little soldering (just two wires). I'm thinking of calling it "The Rocket".

It uses 4AA NiMH batteries, a Radio Shack battery holder, a USB variable voltage pass-through from Fasttech, and a V6 RDA from Fasttech on the top. I simply cut the USB cable off close to the body and stripped the wires and soldered them on to the terminals. You must pay attention to the polarity of the connections.

I did a small amount of dremel work to have the pass-through sit a little lower into the battery box, but that's optional. The pass-through is attached to the battery holder using standard two colored, putty type epoxy. I might sand and paint the epoxy black later. It's a real easy build, a lot easier than the 4AA Puck I made earlier.

You can select four voltages 3.0/3.6/4.2/4.8V, or OFF. I usually stick to 4.8v. I'm using a single 1.8ohm coil made of flat Kanthal A-1 0.5x0.1mm wire and a cotton wick. The battery life is fantastic, and you can attach any standard atomizer of your choice.
