My vape doesn't change. It's what's in the signiture area below. The cuboid ran no longer than the mini in my test according to the puff timer. I'm thinking I'll do the test again and report the results again. It will take a few days to do that after I start the test. I'll report the results here.
if so theres something seriously wrong with your cuboid...perhaps a circuit problem internally or a bad contact ...twice the battery HAS to last twice as long under the same loads
I would suggest metering the batts as a quick comparison after a days use

I would agree

I bought my wife a VTC mini and before even half a day @50w its starts saying weak battery and lowers wattage to compensate.

Prior we both had IPV4's i still only change batteries once a day, with my cuboid. So i get the same battery life

On her IPV4 she could go about 3 days.

Apparently the guys from plumes of hazard are beta testers for the DNA75, unfortunately they didn't really say anything on their show.
They said they were testing it now but didn't release any info on it, or they said they were looking forward to it? Didn't see the vid you are talking about.

They had beta units, but didn't want to give out any information because it is very early in beta testing and a lot can change between now and when the board is released.

In an ideal situation for me I would like to see this 75w board have the same footprint as the dna40 so I could upgrade a few dust collectors I used to enjoy.
Life is rarely ideal. I'd settle for the 40 getting reprogrammed for a TCR adjustment & maybe be bumped up to 50-60w as I just don't see enough real estate on a 40 to allow Escribe use. Maybe they could do an escribe daughter board connected with ribbon cables & zifs could be set up for the 40, but why bother. Smaller mods would have trouble fitting it so it would be an expensive design & implementation with a very limited market.

Yeah I know it is doubtful but it would be great to upgrade some mods I used to really enjoy.

Escribe capabilities don't take up room on the board except a USB connector; other than that its functionality is all in the MCU.

Did I write this earlier. I would be very tempted to own a DNA75 mod because I want the ability to view the puff data for a day. Ecigs gave me control of smoking. Now I want control of vaping. I already reset the puff timer on my vtc mini every day. More data sounds interesting. I would pay a few dollars for an android app that talks to the DNA 75. Perhaps a third party could come up with that.

I calculate the DNA75 pcb dimensions.
In my mind. :rolleyes:

From DNA200 I removed the charger, JST connector, one power stage, and the charger step-up.
I added a chip for 1 cell charger, a battery monitor, and an input current monitor (maybe in the same ic).
The result is a pcb about 52mm length.
Plus the 510 connector, total length about 65mm.
Equal to 18650 battery.
Same functionality (EScribe), one battery, step-up/down.
I don't know about Evolv's DNA75, but my mind's DNA75 is awesome!!! :rickroll:

It is likely the exact same size as the 200, based on using existing materials and processes.

the thing i'm most concerned about is the size of the board... my plan is to put one in my 40w Shark Flask! well, providing it has escribe aswell. and, that's not confirmed yet :(
On efuntop the listing for the Hcigar VT75w lists that it is compatible with Escribe.

Amen to 18650 versions. Just hope they start making them without all these "ergonomic" curves. Give me small and pocket friendly with long lasting 510's and buttons.

Curious if SMY or Hcigar regurgitated a picture there with the 75W. Button placement side by side doesn't seem right unless they are wiring in their own buttons....which I highly doubt.
