So, a Day 2 report. After a ton of fiddling around in eScribe, I think I have it set up as I want it. TC on 316L is absolutely smooth. I know the dna 75 was supposed to be better on 316L than the 200 before the latest update for the 200, and right now I can't tell a difference between them in use.

The mod feels good in my hand. I like the texture, easy to hold, and am rethinking whether I really do want to rewrap it or not. The weight with the 26650 is also fine for me. Not the lightest mod I have, but it feels solid. My only quibble for now is that little LED under the fire button. Why is it there?

I guess it's for looks. You can program it in the theme tab. I have mine turn on Blue for normal operation. Red while charging, and green when the charge is finished. I believe you can turn it off if you don't like it.

Cheers,
Steve

Oh, I saw all the choices, and it's always fun to have something else to obsess over, but you can't see it it in normal use. Or at least I can't unless my thumb got a few inches inches longer and let me wrap around from the back to depress the fire button from above, rather than the human handed press from below. This is how I typically hold it, and even have my thumb a bit to the side just because I am trying to get the photo.

How can you ever see that LED other than when charging?

At least they didn't put it on top, to shine in your eyes on each fire...

I'm like Steve with Blue on the fire, Red on charge and Green when finished charging.

Takes 32.5mm RTAs. :D
The Genelocity Giant is large and in charge! The 30mm Temple RDA I have inbound will look sweet on the VT75.
LOL! Okay...
I guess the biggest tanks I have are the Kanger Subtank Plus and a couple other 25's.

I guess it comes down to another 75 watt single battery device or a dual battery one.

So, I have 3 DNA 75 Mods now... A SMY sDNA, a Lavabox M, and Lost Vapes Therion.

Not to mention 2 VT133's, a VT200 Lavabox and a Triade

Is there a compelling reason to get the VT75?

Anything it brings the others don't?

It has a wonderful unscrewable 510 plate that likes to get stuck on the bottom of your tanks - and when that happens...good luck getting it off.

I have one and it doesn't work. Pliers didn't even work. It's too small of a piece. All that happens is the bottom section of the tank unscrews, giving even less area to hold on to.
That's too bad.

I guess the solution would be to drill the two little holes all the way through, that way you could use c clip pliers on it.
