Just spent some time going back through the whole thread. Beautiful feeders and happy customers throughout. This kind of thing that makes me proud to have been an early adopter of these gorgeous pieces of woodworking art.


Oh ok, actually I was looking at all of the wood trying to decide what to get for my new DNA20D box muhahaha!

Before going for the Dna20D think twice. It's longer than the regular VV.

It has many features and advantages, but it does have a drawback
according to the website
" It features controlled power from 7 to 20 watts" and the minimum Ohm for the atomizer is 1.0 Ohm
Below is the link to the Data Sheet.
http://evolvapor.com/wp-content/uploads/dna20.pdf


I'm currently vaping
.7Ohm at 4.20Volts or 25 Watts

So my regular vv is more of a performance machine than the Dna20D. I wouldn't be able to vape .7Ohm on the DNA20D. Otherwise it looks awesome. As long as you are Ok with the 1ohm limitation along with 20 watt limitation it looks like a fantastic module.

On the other side of the coin, the Dna20D accepts 18650 Batteries and this will give you much longer lifespan than my stacked box. I change batteries at least twice a day. 25 Watt Vaping does take it's toll on batteries!!!

I'm not stressing anymore I have 4 sets of batteries and just bought an Xtar WP6 6 battery charger so the battery issue is mute!

that's not a issue for me I been using mostly rebuildable and genesis attys for about a year now and I don't build sub ohm I'm not an extreme vaper, frankly I don't understand the craze, I don't get the appeal. I try to shoot for 2.0 ohms and I usually get there some time a little lower sometimes a little higher. the DNA is perfect for my style of vaping because as my rebuildable slowly climbs up in ohms it will keep me at my sweet spot of 9 - 10 watts. my biggest problem is trying to figure out what juice is good enough to be dedicated to it it's going to have to be something good because I'm going to be using it a lot. :D

As much as I love the technology behind the DNA20D, while perusing the different models on the site looking at wood patterns I fell head over heels for a gorgeous standard in redwood lace burl and snatched her up. I build my ERAs to about 1.3ohms on my non vv feeders and am just as happy with them as my vv feeders.

I ordered last night about 10 pm and Marcus had it boxed up and a shipping notice sent out to me within a half hour. Hows that for fast service? Here is a pic from the website. Of course I will post more when it gets here :)

Beautiful! But it looks more like Afzelia burl to me...not seeing the "lace". My next one is going to be solid as well :D. And since it's so hard to choose a wood, I'm going to have to collect my favorites.

But after the last few posts I am very confused as what to get. I didn't pull the trigger on the dna20 and thought about the VV but I just don't know about regulated power anymore. I like everything about it except the fact that it makes the mod larger, and I'm a small dude with small hands so that aspect matters (especially for an out of the house mod). I have a mini that fits perfect and I'm thinking that a standard can't be that much larger so I think I'll follow your lead Rob and get me a standard BF for now. Maybe Marcus will do some aluminum power regulated mods which should be a little smaller than the wood ones. Really looking forward to the aluminum too! I have a REO and it's great but I prefer Marcus' design more.
So how's the new metal shop coming Marcus?

PBusardo did a video on the opus d dna20 and he said it would fire the sub ohm gennys but it wouldn't regulate them it was just dumping the battery voltage into it

I don't see why it matters if the dna20 can do a sub ohm coil...20 watts is 20 watts. Now if 20 watts is too limiting, then yeah VV is the way to go. I guess my point is that with regulated power, you don't need a sub ohm coil. In fact, you might get a little better battery life using a higher ohm coil at higher volts.

Well, my whole thing with the vv/vw is that it is really nice to have but for the way I run my RBAs, I just really do not need it. I use to use a kick on my metal reo grand and once built a coil at 1.1 by accident and found I didn't need the kick anymore. It was fantastic until the battery dropped to sub 3.7v and still good down to 3.5 when I recharge them anyway. I can not live without VV or VW with my carto tanks but for BF RBA, all it does for me is make the mod bigger and more expensive.

I would definitely want vv tho if I was running cartos or regular atties or even if I liked higher ohm rba builds on a feeder. The set it and forget of the dna20 is a fantastic feature for the user who might be new to rba. Built in protection and auto adjusts no matter how you build your coil, low or high resistance or anywhere in between. Also great for ultra high voltage/wattage vapers.

What's a carto? lol

Oh yeah, that's that ancient ecig technology that almost pushed me back to smoking:mad:. They still make those? It has been almost 2 years since I tried one so maybe they've had a breakthough. I find it REALLY hard to believe that you use those Rob, after tasting a good RBA.

I do agree with you on the regulated power for atties and cartos since those are relatively high in resistance. I tried an HH not too long ago and while the flavor wasn't bad, at 1.5 ohm, 3.7v didn't do it for me.

Yeah, i know, I know. Sometimes hard to believe myself but I started using carto tanks very early on and I have some of those old flavors that I like very well in a carto tank and it's a heck of a lot cheaper to have a half dozen carto tanks than a half dozen more Boggers and RBAs. I like the juices in them so I figured, if it ain't broke, don't try and fix it. ;)

Sometimes wish I was not such a flavor junkie. Would make things a lot simpler and cheaper but maybe not as much fun!

Hey if it's working for you, that's all that matters :)

Mr Marcus had a sweet looking solid canarywood standard BF in stock so I snatched it up :D. I see about 4-5 other woods that I like though so I'll have to pace myself.

Should I apologize for coercing you into going to the site again and tapping your wallet or say 'you are welcome'? LoL

GratZ on the new Bogger Bro!

Don't underestimate the power of evolv (dna 20). I don't know how to explain it, but 8.5 watts on the darwin is an awesome vape. I can boost my darwin up to 12.7 watts. I can't vape 12.7 watts. It is way to harsh. Though the odd thing is that I have mechanicals, and I actually build my coils around 0.9 ohms. At 0.9 ohms just say on a 3.7 volts, that is near 15 watts. The vape from the darwin is actually more satisfying at 8.5 watts.

You seriously need to try a darwin, or a product from evolv to understand it. It doesn't make sense, but it is very true. The only thing that I can up with is that my darwin adjust as my atty adjust. Atties will sometimes fluctuate in their resistance depending on how old the atty is, how much juice is surrounding the coil and many other things. The darwin, or evolv products actually adjust mid vape accordingly to give you that more of a full bodied vape.


Nothing in my opinion compares to the vape of the darwin, nothing. I build my coils for my darwin around 2.5 ohm, I try for 3.0 ohm, but I don't like dealing with 34 gauge. One day you must try the vape of a product from evolv, it will change your mind about vv compared to regulated wattage.


Edit:: In regards to your battery life, try to build your coil higher, and use more voltage. Higher resistance, higher voltage equals less amperage. Lower resistance, lower voltage, means higher amperage. Amperage is what eats your battery life, not voltage.

I will try and get some photos of my new Bogger up later tonight. When it arrived, I thought the lacquer finished was not cured and the bubble wrap had stuck to it and messed up the finish. So I stripped the lacquer off of the whole exterior of the box and sanded it then gave it a natural oil rub and have been soaking it in Howards FeednWax to condition the wood. Turns out it was not the lacquer, it was a little wax that was put on it to protect the finish during shipping. DOH!!:facepalm:

Luckily it turned out beautiful anyway and hits like a freight train.

Whatever finish mine had on it was definitely not cured because it still had a very strong odor...had to air it out outside for a couple days. It is a different finish than the first one I bought. I actually like it more because it's not ultra shinny and I can feel the wood instead of a clear coat. Expect a pm Rob, I want to refinish both of mine like you did :).
Although I need to hit Marcus up first because the switch on my new one is getting WAY to many misfires.
