My dna 12 box has been working like a champ for a few months now. Tonight, after I set up a perfect U wick on an AGA-T+ I've started to have a (seemingly) random problem with it.

When I push the fire button, the red LED on the DNA12 turns on, steady, and the atomizer pulses. I've tried three different, fully charges batteries. 3 different RBAs, 3 different vivi novas, they all do the same thing.

Anyone have any suggestions?

Protective features and error states
In an error state, the red error LED will illuminate. All error indications will clear themselves once the error is cleared.
Current limit:
The DNA 12 will shut down temporarily if the output current rises above 3.5 amps. This also protects the unit from damage if the atomizer shorts out.
Low battery:
To prevent battery damage, the DNA 12 will shut off if the battery voltage dips below 3.1 volts (loaded) for more than .25 seconds.
Overvoltage:
In the event an atomizer of too high resistance to allow the desired power setting is attached, the output voltage will be limited to 6.0 volts.
Overheat:
DNA 12 has a temperature sensor onboard. If the board temperature rises above 80C, the error light will illuminate and the output will remain off until the board temperature drops.
High resistance:
If the DNA 12 senses an output resistance of more than 10 ohms, it will assume there is no atomizer connected and remain in a low power sleep state.
