Hana One, convertible single/dual 18650 DNA40

So you're basically saying because you don't need it, no one else needs it. Kinda like it's some kind of universal truth.

I think he was saying that the DNA200 is overkill for most people.

And It is probably true.

I figured I should post back about the One mod and my girl loves it. I just asked her if I could snap a couple pics and im not aloud to touch so she will do it lol. It nice no flaws and she gets a day from the single cell pack sometimes plugging in at night when we kick it and watch tv or whatever but most of the time its charged at bed time by usb. Running nickel in a kayfun, its my first go round with the stuff and it was no biggie and works great. I gonna order a dna40 board tonight to put in the old dna20 enclosure for a spare, im surprised the board works pretty well.

What really bothers me is that the 1x18650 is sold out. I have absolutely no interest in 2x18650. That's $10 I can spend in batteries.

Yes I agree. Though the single 18650 model has always said "Sold Out" so I don't think it was released yet. You still have to buy the complete kit (with both battery cases) if you want one right now.

I've had One for about a month now, and its been good to me. Really like it with my Goblin mini, and the single 18650 configuration, great on the go setup.

For the "piece of junk" I've heard it called, thus far mine has been fine.

My only real complaint is they used the .5A evolv charging board instead of the newer 1A charging board. I doubt the 1A board was available when they were designing the mod, possibly before production, but at that point it was probably too late.

Looks like Hana Modz dropped the price considerably on these guys:

$60 for the complete kit.

That makes it the least expensive genuine DNA40 mod on the planet, and that's the full kit, dual 18650. Wasn't that long ago the board alone would cost more than that retail.

Safe to guess they are not selling that well?

Yep, definitely a steal at that price. I might pick up a white one.

Less than aesthetically pleasing design, sub-standard (for Hana) build quality and materials hurt it.

But the worst thing for it was just bad timing. The DNA200 was announced at about the same time this was released, and a wide range of decent non-clone $50 and under temp control devices from the major Chinese players hit the market.

I totally did not need this. My hurricane will work great on it. I bought one for my girl when they came out and its been a good mod. Its held up well, been dropped 100 times and still looks great. I ordered a black one for me to run tanks. I am sure they are doing this because of the dna200.

 

[Croak]

Yeah, if I had a spare funds, I'd be ordering one right now. Or two.
