Alright guys, I'm in search of some information in the main differences between the 20 watt and 30 watt dna chips. Other than the obvious 10 watt power output difference. I own a Cloupor DNA30 and love it, but I recently found a good deal on a wooden DNA20 mod, can I expect all the same features other than max output? Lowest ohm coil I can build? That type of info is what in search of. Thanks!

I just realized I didn't put this in the VV/VW sub forum. Sorry for that, if someone can move it for me I'd appreciate it.

I just happened to see this, got it

What you need to do in the future is to report your post and any staff can move it :)

Im unaware of any other differences.. if the 20 is super priced right, go for it. just understand the 30 was the next iteration. like win xp > win 7
new! Improved! lol.

It's a MCM.. And I've always liked/wanted a wooden mod like this. I love my dna 30, but don't always use the full 30 watts. In most cases 20 watts would do what I need it to do. I just didn't want to limit my coil building. Granted I don't do any super subohms. I stick in the .6-1.0 range normally.

OP: It's important to note that unless you changed the chip in the Cloupor, you do not have a DNA30. You have a chinese 30 watt clone chip. Big difference.

As for the question:

Dna20 cant fire coils under 1ohm.

This is incorrect. DNA20s can fire down to ~.6-.7 ohms. The clone chinese board may fire lower than that, even to its own detriment (failure). But of course, there's really no need to push the low end of the resistance envelope.

There are a few other differences between genuine DNA20 and DNA30s but they aren't applicable.

You may as well be asking the difference between the DNA 20 and a Vamo chip - the clouper chip isn't a DNA chip and they don't behave in the same way.

I think your comparison is extremely exaggerated. It is true that the clone is not exactly the same as the DNA but the average user will not see any significant difference while vaping. I've been using both an Evolv and a clone on a daily basis and the only difference I can tell is the duration of time it takes to fire coming out of sleep. Aside from that the output is very very similar and they do behave in very much the same way.

The real DNA's read ohms on atties correctly, the real DNA's output higher than 28 watts - I don't think the genuine Evolv boards catch fire as much - I find this is always a plus but then who needs safety features anyway?

They look similar and have the same display but they're not half as reliable or half as safe as the real thing.

It's easy enough to clone mechs but counterfeit electronics are never as good.

edit

With the Yihi chip in the Wotofo Zen being a possible exception, this bucks as well as boosts so the only 'cloned' part is the display.

I was commenting on your comparison of two totally different type of devices and your comment of "they don't behave in the same way' now your talking about accuracy, reliability, safety not all of which I would classify as behavior.

You apparently did not look at the link I provided to substantiate my statements if you had you would have seen that in fact I can get up to 34 watts from the clone at 1Ω not limited to 28 watts. So making arbitrary comments like "real DNA's output higher than 28 watts" or "I don't think the genuine Evolv boards catch fire as much" or "they're not half as reliable or half as safe as the real thing" is really irrelevant in two aspects. One, these comments do not respond to your original statement of "they don't behave in the same way" and secondly your merely stating your opinion or echoing someone else's comments not showing any substantial objective data to review.

Do I think the true Evolv DNA has better quality is more accurate and has more safety features built in? Yes I do. But this is only my opinion. Does it cause the clone to behave in a different way from a user perspective? Not at all and only noticeable to me coming out of sleep like I stated earlier.

So I stand by my statement that the average user will not notice any significant difference between the two while vaping.

You do realise that you're not even talking about a DNA chip. It's like extolling the virtues of a fake Galaxy 5 over the real one.

I know exactly what I'm referring to and contradicting you with actual evidence. The OP is the one that mentioned the Cloupor and you my friend are the one that chimed in with over exaggerated comparisons with devices that don't even have similar circuity and matter-of-factly started comparing the Cloupor to the DNA and stating "they don't behave in the same way" You are simply wrong. Man up and admit it rather than meander about with new off topic posts. You are entitled to your opinion just as I and if you have anything to substantiate your claims please provide it. I provided you with real objective data that refutes your claims. You don't like the clones I get that, but really give it a rest and don't post your opinion as fact when you have nothing to back it up.
