Evolv DNA 75

[Wingsfan0310]

Just about what I expect to do.
If it were a 133 or 200, I could understand having five separate 316 profiles to cover the wattage range... presuming one regularly used such a range of builds. With just 75w... not so much.

I only skimmed his short intro vid from May (?) a couple days ago so he may have some pre-heat tricks up his sleeve... I'll find out tomorrow.

Plus I have a variety of 430 gauges and some 316 Clapton on the way so they'll get profiles too.

Don't forget we now have the material tab. Just lock the device (either 3 or 5 clicks on the power button) and hold all 3 buttons down until the material tab appears. Then you can select any material on your device for any profile. I don't think he put SS430 on the material tab though. Other than that you should be good to go.

Cheers,
Steve

PS All you really need to do is hook up the mod to Escribe and add SS430 to the Material List on the mod.

I like the second one better. The first one doesn't even look like wood to me.

We are of like mind. Saw those newer versions of the wood simulating newer Stab Wood looks but I like the older wood grain look myself. Keeping my fingers crossed that is the way it will come even if it does look like shelf paper to some.

The second has a normal pedestrian wood look, hadn't seen that pic, might have grabbed one.

The first though leans toward Burl, which can look stunning... or like crap. So I passed.

true the actual converter circuitry (inductor, mosfets etc) are on the back, like you said. smy has the MCU, gate driver, LDO's and other heat generating components completely covered by the foam tape. if i can i will update this post with a pic of the front side of the board.

right now, device mon is saying room temp is 76°. it's close, it's actually about 73-74°.

here is a Yun RDA with dual staple staggered fused clapton (those geek vape premade ones) 1 puff at 75w .098 ohms. towards the end of the vape (board temp 192°F) the too hot error popped up. you can tell when i let go of the fire button, the temp starts to drop.View attachment 579465 i don't use this build on any of my dna 75's. i'm just using it to show you guys. this build stays on top of my relo with a heat sink 510 adapter. running at 190w.

Compared to a 200 the 75 runs hot and you are pushing the limits of the 75.... with that said temperature readings of the board could be potentially wrong due to possibly a one-off hardware issue with the thermistor onboard being bad or not making full connection.

Might be worth asking Evolv to comment on your situation.... 192° F seems a bit higher than normal IMO for a single short vape taking the temp from room temp to 192°F in such a short time...

Now that's a function I wasn't aware of. Thank you.

I'm not sure if it'll be useful (to me) but I'll have to give it some thought. It's so "out there" I'm trying to process it.

The materials are all in the tab where you add the TCRs for whatever ones you want & can be selected from any profile. Each profile will remember the last material used so the programming Daniel did is really material independent. You will see, it is not complicated at all.

That is a more useful way to look at the feature. Though it would only last until I had time to hook up and get everything squared away again in the saved files.

I was considering it from the point of view of already having set up ones' profiles... how often would I want to change the material for a profile... on the fly?

Like I said... processing the idea.

 

[Jim_ MDP]

To be honest... I'd much, much rather be able to change the display's line items on the fly.

Any sooper sekrit button combo that will let me do that?

I'm not sure what you are asking. You can change what material you are using, wattage, and Temperature from the mod. You can't change the preheat settings or what is displayed on the displays from the mod.

He set it up with different preheat settings in each profile, then you can plug in any material (wire) you want into any profile depending on what preheat you want. Just another way to set one up.

Daniel's programming was basically an attempt to set up a mod for a computer illiterate person who would never hook up to Escibe and give them an opportunity to realize what the DNAs could do out of the box or to allow a first time user to realize that just by manipulating these particular setting you can make your mod behave differently & in this manner to allow them to learn how to use Escribe for themselves.

It really just serves to shorten the learning curve and he did that well enough.

It didn't last long on my unit either, but I understand what he tried to do.

 

[Jim_ MDP]

or what is displayed on the displays

That's what I meant.

Even if it was a limited selection from the choices available in EScribe... it would be nice to be able to change them from the mod.

The wooden one. Does it look like the first one or the second?

The first one, it certainly looks like plastic, but for the price I can forgive it.

Could someone please try to articulate how the TC vape from a DNA75 mod differs from the TC vape from a regular TC mod like an Evic VTC Mini, an iStick 40 or a Vaporflask Lite (all of which I own)? The SMY DNA75 is the perfect size for my first incursion into DNA-land, but I just got my VF Lite and imo it is killer...

Lookin' for motivation here.

The Evolv DNA series is the gold standard for Temperature protection. Everything else is sub-par.

Why? How is the vape superior is what I'm looking for. Or is it longevity?

O Rly? I hear that Dicodes is quite capable.

In the first place... the accuracy of the TC should be greater than our JTech and other middle-ground budget TC mods. Longevity? Can't say yet personally but certainly we've seen that US based Evolv stand behind their products better than the imports.

Then there's the customizability of the vape. And the ability to actually see in graphical terms how your adjustments are affecting the performance. Yes... there's also the geeky satisfaction of hooking your mod up to a graphing analyzer.

Ever have "rattlesnaking" on a TC mod?
With a DNA... you can actually do something about it.

I don't want to give you motivation. You probably won't think it is worth it or the climb of the learning curve. The vape you get may seem unsatisfying compared to what you are used to because it will be accurate. DNA200 & the follow on DNA75 were designed to be as scientifically accurate as possible to enable the first serious scientific studies of the effects of vaping on the human body to save vaping as we know it today during a time when the other manufacturers were busy reverse engineering the DNA40 to learn how to do Temp Control.

Joyetech, Kanger, Yihi & the others weren't as concerned about this kind of accuracy & often choose customer perceived performance over accuracy in dialing in the calibration of their equipment. The concept of a TCR Curve is a concept only known to Escribe capable DNA boards and you have not seen Evolv attempting to convince you that they can do temp control on NiCr or Kanthal so you will buy their products.

Evolv does warranty their DNA products for 1yr from date of purchase & they do deliver on that promise to the point that they fix errors made by manufacturers who sell mods with their boards in them when the manufacturers themselves will not.

These units have been on the market for some time and still have no serious rivals in accuracy & customization. I'm not aware of another TC mod that allows control of preheat wattage, punch & duration independent of temperature setting. What other board allows you to graph the performance variables of your equipment to diagnose issues you may experience?

Only you can decide if you want one or not. I wont lose any sleep if you don't buy one. Evolv probably won't either.

Very well written!

In a sentence:
DNA= more accurate computer chip and software.

Thanks for the time you put into this, but jeez I was just asking a question, no need to get upset and huffy about it. I never expected anyone to lose any sleep over what I do.

Thanks anyway.

I didn't read it as him getting huffy. You asked a question and imo he gave you a well thought out answer which I happen to completely agree with.
