    I like the look of the Jac but the epetite is way shorter. I love my SMY SDNA 75 and i only payed $45 for it. That is smaller than the Jac.
    I love my smy to its only a tiny bit shorter than the Jack. Will try to get some comparison photos up sometimes

    If they made a dna that was 65mm or less I'd be all over it

    Looks like lost vape has a new baby:

    Wow can you even get 60 watts out of a 18500 battery? In a regulated mod wouldn't you need around 20 amps.

    No idea! But, yeah, if I were vaping at 60w, I don't think this would be my first choice in any case.

    I don't vape above 15w myself, and I do like the tiny things, so I was pleased to discover a little box mod using 18500s. (And lil_buddy was looking for something 65mm or less, maybe with an 18350, so this is one that might scratch that itch.)

    sorry for horrible pics, my phone's got the purple lense going on. but the jack is like 2 quarters taller.

    Yeah - very similar to the difference between it and the VT75n. I never expected to really feel a difference, but the thinner design has won out big (so far, at least).

    Taste is (something, something, aw heck - I can't remember).... ;)

    Depends on the resistance of the coil combined with chip specs. For a simple circuit, current = square root(power/resistance). A 0.5ohm coil only needs about 11amps to get to 60w. Max 60w power is only possible for the resistance ranges shown in the output power graph of the spec sheet here

    The screen is on the bottom.???

    Agreed, i am looking for a DNA 60 and looked at this until i so the screen. Totally ridiculous! The lost vape epetite is looking good.

    Vaporshark has always put their screen on the bottom since their DNA20. I have a DNA40, rDNA40 and DNA200. I gave my DNA30 to my sister because she likes the little size. My rDNA40 is over 2 yrs old and still in daily rotation. The only issue is that the finish on the fire button is worn off (started to show significant wear at 6 months). They might've changed it on the DNA200 because that's over a year old and the fire button looks like new. They might not be cheap but they're well made and work great.

    There's a GREAT thread somewhere on ECF...(I don't remember where...I only visited it a couple times)...listed as "Little itty bitty mods under $100"...:shock:

    ..
    Mods have been coming down in price and it won't be long until the DNA60 will be under $100, IMO.

    Personally, I prefer better made mods for a bit more money than the cheaper mods. I still very much prefer Evolv powered mods and there's a lot of them for under $100. I have 15 DNAxxx mods in daily rotation but I ordered parts for 2 DNA75c mods and they're just under $100 ea. I also ordered a Therion DNA75c from FT for $120 with code MAP.

    I've been disappointed with the VT75 Nano and don't really use it much. I'd consider that an expensive POS. The only non-Evolv mod I use is the Target Mini and only when I need a stealth vape.

    Highly agreed. I think many of us would make the jump to around $100ish if the quality was there. I tire of Isticks and the like but I'm not paying more just for higher watts that I won't use. Or looks.

    But Ger, everyone knows it's the "Little itty bitty mods under $100"... except for Puffzz, in which case ....

    anything goes!

    He doesn't like it, but a lot of us do. It has some shortcomings, particularly with the battery cap and some wackjob 510 connector (that unscrews), but I like it a LOT.

    I like the JAC better.

    Bottom screens (unrelated) are no issue for me. Xvo has them too and that's one of my favorite mods. Matters of opinion, one and all.
