Yea....at about 70-80 watts, so I can only imagine how painful a lung hit would be at 150 watts....when the beta was expecting his set wattage at 50 watts.
Guess you didn't watch the video though huh?

People have been setting wicks on fire with far less wattage than that. This is not new.
Yes I watched the video.
I really don't see how a polite P.M. would hurt in this unique situration

Absolutely! Charging will be different. It not only charges 3 cells but it also balance charges each cell to be the same voltage. When charging RC cars it jams the batteries full then it sits there and charges and discharges each cell until they are at target voltage(4.2v) Balance charging takes longer however it ensures safety and longevity in the life of the pack as well as longer battery life per charge.
I thought we were talking about juice?
Now you're talking about burnt wicks....
Wet wicks can catch on fire because ejuice is flammable. Wicks generally will not burst into flame by themselves, we were doing this on silica wicks years ago
So what does either of your comments have to do with the beta having his wattage set at 50W....hit the fire button and get a 150W hit from it....and calling it "FIRE"?
The point was...the mod jumped 100 watts unexpectedly.
You don't get fire from a closed atomizer, you get burnt wicking.
Not really. Dry hits are dry hits, you stop hitting them.
The reason he used the term "fire" is because of the demonstration done at 46:10, speaking of watching the video.
Preheat can utilize up to 200w.

So you're directly contradicting your previous statement?
I believe that he meant he got a PAINFUL lung hit, hence his expression of "BOOOOM, FIIIIRE!"
And then follows up with, "Whoa, what the ....!?" & "There are some weird things that happen when you vape on this thing, that's all there is to it."
He was expecting 50 watts...and got 150 watts instead.
That would hurt and your vapor would be extremely HOT!
No it didn't jump unexpectedly (if you know how it operates)... if you look back at the software info given here already you will see that the pre-heat is user settable.... note in the video they said they had no yet even looked at or used the software ( and without saying even uploaded current beta firmware...)
I said earlier I wouldn't join the banter but this needed to be said so now I'm back to just giving facts that I am allowed to give....
Balance charging doesn't work like that at all really. LiPo charging follows a Constant Current (CC) charge method until cells reach 4.2v each then switch to Constant Voltage (CV) charging maintaining 4.2v while lowering current until a predetermined current level has been reached and the battery charge is then complete. The predetermined current level is typically around 0.1A when the charge is finished. Balancing consists of monitoring each cell individually during charging, both in the CC and the CV stages of charging looking for a voltage imbalance between cells. Once an imbalance is measured (at typical voltage differential of 0.2v, but can vary between chargers), charging to the higher voltage cells is interrupted until the lower voltage cell catches up to the voltage level of the higher cells. Most chargers also have a predetermined timeout period and if a lower voltage cell cannot be brought up to the voltage of the higher cells within this timeframe, the charge cycle will terminate with a failure to meet minimum charge target. This will generate an error message indicating the charge failed to complete successfully.
I am not a DNA200 beta tester, so I don't know if this is the method used for their charge routine. But this is the normal method of charging LiPo batteries and has been generally accepted as the norm for this purpose. This is not a new method and is not magic. Just the accepted safe method for charging multi-cell LiPo batteries that has been in use for years.
there isn't enough information in the video to say what happened. all i can tell you is i have not had anything unexpected.
but one thing you learn is that truly high power is nothing to take lightly.
Also, you should listen to the other words he says between the parts you quoted.
Because there's insufficient air to sustain combustion in a closed atomizer, right?
I'd agree.
Right up until the point where someone does a hearty direct lung pull through one of the ridiculously airy atties that so many people use today. Now there's whole lotta airflow that will sustain combustion at least until the vaper realizes what's going on and stops pulling. No, I'm not gonna be the one to test this theory, I'm strictly MTL.
