Oh yeah... I run mostly Ni200 28g or Ni200 Clapton 26/32.
Oh I run Subtanks and Crowns RBAs by MTL at 20 watts, but once they hit temperature they settle down to 7 to 9 watts. Normally I mostly run most of mine between 440 to 460F. Although when they need to be rebuilt and cleaned, I need to bump them up in temp since the gunk on the coils isn't transferring all of the heat to the juice. Normally I clean them before getting up to 550F though.
OK, but that doesn't speak to the accuracy of the board. That's what the board is reading for internal resistance of the board plus other components. To know how accurate it is, you'd need to compare it to some very accurate standard. Even an expensive, calibrated DMM doesn't have that kind of accuracy. I'm not an expert in electronics, so maybe I'm wrong.

Yes I think they are still around somewhere.I was thinking you were/are an engineer....there used to be a bunch around these parts but have left or just not posting...
You can buy micro-ohm meters on eBay for 65 bucks. Yes I know Flukes are expensive. And yes laboratory equipment isn't cheap and some cost more than a new car. But you know the Chinese, they can build it for 5 bucks and sell it for 65 bucks on eBay.Sorry, I wasn't trying to be argumentative or downplay what a great product Evolv makes, if I came across that way. I was just trying to get across, that to expect any mod to not fluctuate a few hundredth of an ohm may be asking more than any $50 board can offer. I'm not sure exactly how resistance is measured on the DNA and maybe it can resolve down to +-0.00X, but even a good calibrated Fluke is only +-0.15 ohms. But then the Fluke isn't designed to read ultra low resistance. I was just curious if Evolv published accuracy specifications.
They might be hanging around the EE forum.

Oh there are more around here somewhere.Ok. ONE and counting!![]()

How did you get the subtank to do temp control? Mine refuses to do temp control. I've checked the 510, and the build deck.
What kinda coils were you using?
I only have a Toptank but as far as I can tell they're very similar besides the top-fill.
I never had a problem with TC with the RBA, or actually with 3 different RBA (I got some spares). I use T1, single or twisted. I've never used the pre-made coils though, there's still in the box somewhere.
I have the toptank, I used SS316L. Funny thing is it worked fine for like a week, but now it plain and simple doesn't work.
Ah, so it did work initially. So what happens when you try it now, does the mod see the tank and reads the resistance but it just won't fire, or are you getting the atomizer short or low error perhaps?
Will it fire your SS coils in wattage mode?
The bottom of the RBA has four air holes. Stick something threw it and tighten it like a screw. It screws up to the top deck. If that gets loose, you will have nothing but trouble. And make sure those screws holding the wire down are tight. Sometimes they get loose.I have the toptank, I used SS316L.
