Hi, what's a dna mod? What's it's benefits over a normal mod? Do they make a dna 50? I've noticed they don't do high wattages in dna? I noticed they have temperature control but why have this when you can change wattages and in control of your temputure? What's the lowest ohm it can get down to? Can a dna use nickel wire as well as regular kanthal? Are they expensive? Are they value for money? Sorry about all the questions. You don't have to answer them all.

The DNA's are a series of control boards designed, manufactured and sold by Evolv to electronic cigarette mod (device) makers.
The latest version is the DNA-40 that introduced "Temperature Control".

Im sure more people will come soon and answer this better but ill try to answer some.
Dna is the name of the chip that regulates things its made by a company called evolve. they sell the chips to the mod makers.
40w is the highest they do for now as they want to bring good and new features rather than play the high power race. They were the first to do the temp control.
The temp control sounds handy but only works with nickel. (and titanium i think) You can use regular kanthal but the temp control bit wont work.
You could try and limit your temp by using less watts but setting a temp is more accurate. I read you can tweak your temp to get better or slightly different taste from your liquid and i think if you get it right keep it below your wick burning temp. I havnt used one but another benefit i guess would be keep the watts high so the coil heats up quick but then the temp control would keep it feeling like a lower setting.
Looking via google the ohm limit is 0.16 - 2.0.
They are expensive but they are generally thought of as one of the best chips, there are many clones now that do work but have been known to not last as long or not work quite so well. The other chips that i have read as working well is the YiHi chips. ( hope i spelt that right)
I would love a DNA my self but I'm not that rich at the moment.
Something like this. (no idea if this site is any good just was top on google.)

Hi Jaymin. That's a lot of questions and I'll do my best to answer them correctly, so here we go....
A DNA mod is a mod built using the Evolv DNA series circuit board as others have already said.
No, the newest DNA is the 40 watt model. Evlov chose to stay with lower wattage with more useful features rather than become in the watt race.
Temperature control isn't used to control the vapor production, it's used to prevent the coil from becoming too hot and burning the wick.
A DNA controlled device can go as low as 0.16 ohms to as high as 2.0 ohms when using Kanthal wire, with temperature sensing wire the limits are 0.1 ohms to 1.0 ohms.
Yes, you can use regular Kanthal wire but the TC won't work; for temperature control the DNA uses NI200 (pure nickle) wire or titanium wire.
Yes, they are a bit pricey depending on which mod you get. The Vapor Shark DNA40 (non-replaceable battery) currently sells for $160 (I believe this is the least expensive manufactured mod) while the Vapor Flask is priced around $300. Value for the money is entirely subjective, for some they are for others it's not worth it.
