I have the feeling this is correct, but I have no experience with a 30 watt regulated mod.
Money is a factor being a dirt poor university student. I want to buy either or. I was drifting more to just picking up the DNA30 since i don't need to buy ohm reader ect. and can directly see what wattage im vaping at off the bat. Just needed some opinions on weather a mechanical mod would out shine the Cana.
Well the CANA will definitely have more bells and whistles than a mech mod. The only thing the DNA30 can't do is some serious subohming... but if you have no multimetre or way of checking your coil resistance or battery voltage then you probably shouldn't be subohming anyways.
I say get a regulated mod -- Cana or wait a couple weeks for the IPV 50w.
You can always pick up a mech mod clone for cheap at a later date. Focalecig has group buys on 4Nine clones right now for under $15 with free shipping.
I have or had a cana mod for a few weeks before it stopped working. While it worked, it was amazing and I like that you could experiment with different coil builds. it also felt very would in the hands and I miss it already. I had to return the unit because it failed to read my atomizers and stopped firing. Not sure what caused it but I mailed it back to WetVapes and waiting on a replacement.
seems to be a pretty common issue from what i've been reading in various threads here.
hopefully they got all those issues sorted out and the batch 2's will be everything they should!
I would suggest you get the IPV V2 50 watt device from Elev8 with the coupon for $80, or for $85 from VaporTeKUSA, or for $100 at Eciggity, the list goes on and the choice is yours but these are the best deals on the web right now - they even offer 35 watt versions, but I'm passing for the 50. This is a very highly anticipated mod, just look up on it a little. I believe that the extra 20w is 100% worth the extra $10, plus the increased performance of the included chipset..
It's got the SX330 chipset, which is made by a great manufacturer. It's got an absolutely gorgeous OLED screen which shows you everything you need to know such as battery life, ohms, firing volts.
This mod comes from the same manufacturer as the Seven-22 and Seven-30 both of which got GREAT reviews even from RIP who had ONE con that wasn't even a con. It fires down to .2ohms. It actually has the working battery light indicator. I just wish we had colors on release, but we have to wait for those til the end of the month, or so they say - we know how these things go sometimes.
I can see myself pushing past the limitations of the DNA30, but as of right now I could never seem myself exceeding the limitations of this mod. It also includes a 12 month warranty so this should hopefully be the end of the road for me, and it'll only be my 2nd mod in 10 months because I roll like a minimalist.

Yeah... I really didn't research the IPV 50w until after I ordered my Cana... but will probably be ordering one of those next. Maybe I'll hold out for more colours.... or at least until J Wraps starts stocking vinyls for it.
I got a cana recently and it does perform pretty nicely. However I've read that below a pretty high battery charge (60% or so) it actually stops regulating and just dumps the battery, unregulated. Is this right?
The Cana is a nice mod anyway. There are some color options on Elev8 right now but I don't know if they are getting them first run - I doubt it. Jwraps are always a great idea, I'm gonna have to invest in one upon release.
I too heard this about the Cana.
I can attest that this happens at around 10% but don't think so at 60%. I believe there was a chart posted concerning this in the one Cana megathread, but the data was provided by Cloupor so take it as you will.
They have made a second generation cloupor dna 30 mod. The issues with the electronics are fixed and it's 510 connection is a new different one. Fluid vapes has the cloupor dna 30 second generation on sale, in stock right now for 69 dollars!! This is a steal! Fluid vapes ship from california. Seeing that most cloupor dna 30 s are going for 89 dollars and up I myself couldn't resist getting one at this price. Again this is the second generation with all the issues fixed that they had in the first generation. This unit they have is selling in three colors red, silver, and black. My husband ordered a cloupor dna 30 also but he ordered from a different place and he has to wait on a list for at least a week they said and he paid 89.00 for his!! Fluid vapes has a killer price right now the dna 30 is a great device. It can go sub ohm down to .3, it will fire 30 watts no matter what resistance your coil is at, and the best part is all those problems have been addressed and taken care of in this generation that they are selling. I highly recommend you take a look at the Dna 30 from fluid vapes. If your considering getting a new mod, this would be the way to go!! You can always get a mechanical mod later to play with but for a great daily vape, this would be a great choice. And at this price it's a steal also its shipping from california not China so you wouldn't have to wait forever for it to arrive! Can't wait till mine gets here!! You should check it out!! It's really a great deal and your getting the Im proved version!!
That 35 watt and 50 watt do seem like the way to go imo , especially when you consider that the maker is the same one as the Seven 22 and Seven 30 which are both high end solid mods.
The 12 month warranty is also a huge plus , this is the way i am leaning at this point , especially for the price . I am still reading about issues with the Cana even with the third incarnation , whether it is the charging light not working or the device randomly turning on for no reason .
If Cloupor had a solid rap in making Ecigs like Greenleaf does i would feel a lot more comfortable .
Actually the dna 30 clones are all rated different when it comes to ohm's. I have an evolve dna 30 and it is rated for 0.5-3.0 ohm's where as a Cana dna 30 I believe is rated for 0.3-3.0 ohm's and there are some out there that are .4-3.0 ohm's so be careful what manufacturer you get it from.
One more thing I should mention. Some attys do not work on the dna because the atty pin does not make contact with dna pin. Some attys have a pin you can bring out but there are those that will not allow you to adjust the pin.
I have both mech mods and variable devices and use both of them. I use the mech mod for my daily flavor of a menthol n tobacco mix and the variable devices for dripping flavors. You can really adjust the power for different flavors to get what you like with the variable devices. With mech mods you are at the mercy of the 3.7 volts for flavor so it all hinges on the coil you build. You will not be disappointed with a dna 30 depending on which manufacturer you get it from.

I am also hoping to get a Cana Mod DNA 30 and a Kayfun. Any suggestions on coil builds that won't destroy my throat? I watched the Rip Trippers review on the Kayfun and he said it hits really hard. That doesn't sound like something i could vape all day since this will be my first RBA/RDA.
I'm running a KayFun 3.1 with my Cana right now. 1.9Ω coil @ 10-11 Watts seems to be just about perfect for me.
