Does anything along these lines exist yet? I've had a rDNA40 since December and love it, but really want something with more battery life. I'm a bit of a nut when it comes to getting the most power out of a single charge. I've also seen some of the reverse engineered DNA40 clone chips coming out appear to actually be better than the Evolv original. I've definitely had a few annoyances with their chip, but nothing bad enough to make me toss it. It's probably the single most used device I've ever owned.

Clearly the SX350J might be what I'm looking for, but I haven't been able to find anything that isn't either single battery or dual series. I don't need 200W of power since I do all my cloud chasing unregulated, and I don't think temp control would work well in that situation, anyway.

Finally, I'm not looking for something custom in a Hammond box. I don't like carrying a Hammond. Nor do I want to build one myself, as I have no tools or workspace! Sigh.

The vaporflask is a parallel 18650 DNA40 mod. The clones are starting to be difficult to find but focalecig still lists a few of them. With regulated dual battery mods it doesn't really matter, in terms of battery life, if they're parallel or series. As long as you keep at the same wattage both should give equal battery runtime.

I thought parallel would get longer life, but I also forgot everything I learned in electronics class in college haha. I'm not sure I would trust a Flask clone, there are just WAY too many. Anyway, I'm really impressed with how the Whiteout OS is shaping up, so I will probably wait for that. Thanks for the input!
