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. :)
No offense intended and I certainly did not mean to be perceived as being Huffy about anything.

I'm sorry you took it that way.

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.
I agree. It was great until the last paragraph. The rest is still great. Background is really interesting.

Maybe I shouldn't have used the word "motivation" in my initial post. I used the word lightly.

If you can afford $50, look at page 19, half way down, I believe it was a US site, may be gone by now. Then you could try one. I paid $65, from fasttech (listed at $100, used coupon code). Then I ordered two more, on July 1st, told of factory delay, I'm still waiting. $50 for a dna 75 device is crazy. My VS DNA200, was $200! Thankfully I already own the rubberized red model, getting two more in case the GREEDY FDA makes our gear scarce.

Where are they? If they were any good, you would think that many places would sell them. Since almost nobody has interest in them, that should tell you something.
Google them and you will find a high end German manufacturer - probably selling all they currently can make in the EU.

i don't own any dicodes mods but can tell you i'd like to own one. i hear they're quite nice and accurate, regardless of popularity.

correct me if i'm wrong, but isn't the reason you don't see a lot of em here in the states is because it's hard to get em here? you have to order from germany or the UK or something along those lines? with limited production.

IMO it is far more than just the specs, warranty and features, the vape is better, smoother from all DNA family chips. Recently I let a friend try an Evic Mini 75 W FW V3.1 and a DNA 75 with the same dual ss build in an Aromanizer RDTA V2 and he was amazed at the magnitude of the difference in vape quality. He bought a couple of DNAs the next day.

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.
I got mine up to 160F by holding the fire button for 10 seconds, 60/75 watts. I did the same with my VT133 and it barely got over 100F.
I'll wait to see your results after removing some of the tape before I pull mine down.

Same here after switching over to Aromamizer

Not trolling the thread since they are all DNA chips. I just have to say the VT133 is a beast :D. It's probably my favorite mod atm.

Cheers,

I'm using LG HG2's. I found a CSV file for their discharge curve an uploaded to to the mod. I then put in the watt hours for those batteries. There is a watt hour calculater to make it easy. I also changed my soft cell cutoff to 2.8v from the 3.09v it came with (just my preference - you can always pull them early but just in case I'm out, I want to be able to vape if I still have power left).
