Looking for a DNA 60 board to replace a bad DNA 30 Advice/Source

[Mike Gee]

Hey all,
I buy broken mods from time to time and fix them for friends and such. I got my first dna mod (Beyond Vape Solara DNA30) and thought it may be a bad 510 or battery or something simple. The board seems to be the issue. It will only let you take a 3 second hit at 20 watts then when you go up to 30 watts you are good to get 1.5 seconds. I tried using it in pass-through and with a new battery and same issue. Anyway, I like temp control and have not had a chance to use a dna mod yet so I'd like to put a dna 60 in this mod. All I have read it has the same form factor as the DNA 60 small screen. The best pricing I have found on the DNA 60 is $50 on Ebay and Protovapor. Anyone have a source out there for these boards cheaper than that? Any source on used boards for my experiment?
Thanks,
Mike

Not sure if it's the same board but try Voltrove (link below). He is sold out at the moment but he may have one laying around somewhere. You can email Mark and ask. I know you were looking for a 60 and this is a 250 but figured I'd let you know. I myself am a VV guy with the NLPWM lipo mod kits he has and I knew he had the 250 boards.

Is the DNA 60 the same form factor as a DNA 30 for a retrofit?

Yes according to what I found on protovapors site the dna60 is just a jump from the 30 to the 40 now 60.
The board ,screen ,and charge board all look like an exact swap.

EDIT: with that said,if you buy off eBay you better make sure the board is an actual dna60.

There are dimensional differences. Might take a little dremeling to fit.

As it looks from the data sheets from Evolv the outer board dimensions are the same. The mounting holes and switches appear to be oriented the same as well. The DNA 60 may be about .5mm thicker on one of the chips though...

Well....seems like no one is selling a cheap DNA60 (may be a good sign the DNA75s are everywhere cheap) so I bit the bullet and bought a new/retail DNA60 board,screen, and charger. Wish me luck! and thanks for the advice!
