The guy from the review thats actualy not a review mentioned in the comments to that the 510 is SS, and the contact pin brass.
Wonder if they always been SS or if there was a upgrade, do you have one in hand already?
You got a brass one?, older pictures definatly had a yellow looking 510?
I received info some time ago that there would be upgrades to the pre-production models, but nothing specific.
Since the pre-sale images clearly showed a brass 510 connector (threads, platform, post) I assumed that it would be one of the upgrades but I've been waiting for confirmation.
Just reviewed that so-called review again and it looks like it was confirmed yesterday...
"+Steve Bust The 510 connection is made of stainless steel; the positive firing pin will be made of brass for better construction."

Richard Ng does a nice quick look at it (including taking it apart to show the LiPo pack):

Why? Thats nite material for 510. Do some had for eg. HB50?

huh? ...and no, brass is way soft for a 510 connector shell material, especially considering most atties are stainless and the chances of stripping that connector is pretty great.
Im devastating HB50 brass 510 for last... 2 years now? Looks like new. Also brass is harder than silver, alu, gold and copper (for example) and still have MUCH BETTER connectivity than SS.
Its good pick in my opinion. Brass 510 and silver plated pin.
Probably a dumb question but obviously it does 200 watts in Kanthal but if you pop on Nickel or Titanium does out of the box support a default X amount of Joules? Besides all the cool customization stuff I don't see things that say more basic specs this way...
200 watt power, 50J Ni, 100J Ti
So for all us noobs how does a device like this translate out of the box? Looks great by the way.
I'd suspect there is more to it though.
If just pop on a TFV4 tank with a TI coil which is rated in temp (600F) vs.wattage what menu settings ensues without being plugged into a PC?
Ty!
That has me stumped. Am I looking at typos or current UK slang that I am out of touch with?
Well if you want to run Ti or SS or anything other than Ni. You're have to offset you're temp. You'll have to go into the escribe program to upload a your wire's specific TCR curve. You really need a PC to take advantage of the DNA 200 board. So w/o a PC , when you pop on your TFV4 Ti coil, you'll have 200 watts in temp mode (200°-600° F) to play with, however, you'll have to offset your temp by about 90-100° because the DNA is set up to run Ni from the box. But 200 watts is available for all wire types.
EDIT: Evolv does not measure their wattage in temp mode as joules like Yihi.
LOL me too. I doubt HCigar will release the production version with a brass 510. Their last 2 DNA devices have had a stainless 510 so I would bet this one will too. Can't wait for the CoOp for this one.
