I think the biggest revelation for me was tweaking my watt setting higher than "usual" to get the temp cranked up to match my vape duration. I can do anywhere from 390 to 430F if it heats up in 'tune' with my drags. At 390 or 400 it bounces off & on the temp protection but gives a good vape without interruption. Higher temps I go a bit lower on watts & probably average 400-ish degrees but it takes a longer drag to get to the cutoff & keeps it warmer for subsequent puffs.

I didn't see it either. Personally I think their website could use a little updating.

It's not in the specs.

As, no delay firing from sleep? And TC works as it should? If so, sounds like you have got a good board there... does it have "preheat"? What about Celsius- I don't recall anyone saying that any of the clone DNA 40 boards use anything but F?well i finally got a build going, 8 wraps 28ga NI200 single coil on a alum little boy i believe on a 1/8th bit it comes out at 0.2 and have the TC set at 400; seems to be working great and i notice no delay in firing.......took me a couple of tries to get it spaced rite and the rite amount of tightening of the post screws to keep it from breaking.
i'm on my way
no delay, soon as you hit the button it fires, preheat i have no idea....it registers Fahrenheit only......been using it since yesterday and all night/today.....have 2 different builds one on a little boy and one on a tobh both with no probs so far.....one thing i have noticed if the wick gets sorta on the dry side the temp protection kicks in until you wet the wick......must say i like it so far fingers crossed......i been pretty lucky so far buying devices, hope it continues....yet i have to admit i still love my Mec's also.
Ahh gotta luv em...
how about
look ere guv I paid good money for that chip - and it were supposed to be temperature controlled, I ain't 'appy see, i wants some pay back see, giz a tenner back and we'll call it quits

I'm fighting the same battle too -- their response to me was try another wattage and to extend the connection on the 510...
they know it just doesn't work... that's why they first changed the item description and remove any reference to nickle, then they took the listing down all together because *someone*
went to google cache and posted a screen shot of the old description in the customer images section and called them out on it Im im just getting the run around of them trying to blame the problem on something im doing and then sending some bs suggestions a few days after i reply.... it will be the last thing i buy from cigabuy

My reply to them:
Those are ridiculous numbers.
But even though 0.3 Ω Temperature Censing Nickel 200 coil requires ridiculous number of wraps, made out of ridiculously thin wire, I did it anyway, just to test your theory. I made 0.4 Ω coil out of 30 AWG (0.25mm) Ni200 wire.
Yes, the behavior of the device had changed. It is no longer saying: "Check Atomizer", it detects coil resistance accurately, BUT:
IT STILL DOES NOT WORK!!!
It does not fire and displays: "Temperature Protect" on the screen all and every time when I press the Fire button. It produces NO VAPOR. See file attached.
This was a waste of money on my end and total false advertising and product misrepresentation on yours. If this unit equipped with function, then that function should work. You wouldn't buy a car that has brakes, but the brakes don't work? Would you?
No worries. I filed a claim with PayPal and they granted me full refund. Only I have to ship the product back to Cigabuy at my expense. I couldn't find any shipping method other then USPS Small Box for $25.00
How do you guys ship this stuff to China?
Oh, by the way: This Hana has KX40D board in it that doesn't work:
But my Vapor Flask V3 DNA40 Clone from 3FVape.com has the same KX40D board in it that works fine.
except for occasional:
But as soon as I sent e-mail to 3FVape.com about it, they shipped me another one, free of charge and let me keep this one too.
I pulled KX40D board out of it and replaced it with genuine Evolv DNA 40D board.

I thought the Kangxin board was the one sold by 3Fvape, which is different to the board that does not work sold by Cigabuy. That pic you posted of a dna40 clone board does not look like a Kangxin to me. There is not much clarity of info out there so I could be wrong...any chance of posting a close-up pic of the one you removed?
Sorry to burst your bubble, but Paypal siding with you and asking that you mail the item back is not a win... They will not refund your money unless it is shipped with tracking -- and that tracking confirms delivery...
Last time I looked in to it Shipping an item with tracking to China vis UPS FedEx or EMS (USPS Does not offer reliable delivery confirmation to China) starts around $80-$100....
Doesn't really make sense to spend $80 for a possible $30 refund does it....
And Paypal does not compensate you for return shipping, nor will the seller, you are basically offering to give an additonal $50 away so they get the part back...
If you did your paypal checkout with a credit card then you can try to dispute the charges with the CC company... otherwise your probably better off dealing with the run around until they give in for a partial refund if its worth it to you.

I dont think thats possible with an international delivery and they would just refuse delivery...
Yes but there would be a tracking information available. It's not the buyer's fault the seller doesn't want to accept back the product....
