Evolv-ing Thread

[BrentMydland]

I'm just hoping the DNA75 will mean some decently sized (and hopefully priced) TC squonkers. At least that is what I'm hoping for. I'd love a single 18650 squonk box with a DNA75 chip to run my TC builds.

Certainly possible, although "decently sized" is a very subjective term. Remember, the DNA75 is about the same size/form as the DNA200. The only space you are going to be able save is in the battery compartment.

Went ahead & worked on it anyway:

Will probably need a tweak or two and I did not insert screw holes in the file other than to mount the board & 510 DNA75 Evolv 510 Logo VTC by tpat591

Each part is in separate file in addition to together.

This is Great stuff Tpat591 I do like 3D printed mods I find there very light to carry, & fun to build I find them very durable, after all it's a mod not a hammer One thing here with this design, Since it isn't metal a ground for the 510 will be required, is there enough room for a ground ring & nut under the 510? It's all most imposable to solider a ground wire to SS

Seen this on FT and ordered one. With the MAP code it came out to $66. For that price, I just had to pull the trigger.

Hard to compete with that, when wholesale cost on the board alone is $30.

That cost mite a bit lower for a big Chinese Company buying 1,000's of boards
This will bring all the more budget minded vapes into the realm of E-Scribe

MOQ = 24,000 = $20

 

[Steamer861]

MOQ = 24,000 = $20

+ cheap Chinese manufacturing costs = profit margin even at 66 $ retail price

not necessarily the price when you order 1000+

But "we" cant get the board for less than ~$30. Another $36 worth of parts (at the prices we pay) wouldnt get us very far. DIY cant compete with that, except on quality and originality.

Sometimes, depends on who's talking.

That is so true. I build mods and try to add some unique design enhancements or decorations to them to make them stand out but the price to make them is high.

For example, I'm making this DNA200 Sqonker for a guy who served in the Marines so I made it personal for him out of a Alpinetech 1590B box. Just a plain box until I added the Marine pin to it

Maybe this one modified for the DNA 75:

Design 4 - 18650 - Gripper Body by jonniemac on Shapeways

@jonniemac just have to tweak a few button holes here and there . . . best carry around mod I have.

I've kind of abandoned a lot of the 3D printed stuff but now that the 75 is on the horizon perhaps I'll revisit a few of the designs and see if they can be adapted. Been spending all of my spare time learning and working with the new CNC machine.
