Just make sure you put a fuse in there somewhere, Frocket!
Yup, when system becomes VW only if someone was relying on temperature control to hold down the power, they will have a burnt hit. I would think they would immediately realize what's up and fix it. And they would probably learn from that experience![]()

Yup, looking like it'll have to be an AC inverter. I was hoping to find a simple DC step-down regulator, but all seem to have a max current output of 3 amps. Some have 5 amps, which would put the upper limit somewhere around 20 watts. Looking for at least 40 watts.
BOOM!
Can you imagine someone cranking one of those bad boys up and not test firing before hitting it, The atty catches fire mid hit and instant lung burn. Yeah I'd say hospitalization from smoke inhalation would be a lessen learned...lol
A lung burn from a 40 watt atty?
I didn't know we were vaping gasoline now ..........![]()
Oops my bad..I thought we were still on those 100W devices..sheesh I need a break..lol
Well.... Anyone who has been keeping up with this thread knows that recently I was struggling with rather I should either go for a 100W-150W mod (probably the T8) or go ahead and give a DNA40 a try. I decided to do both after figuring out just how cheaply I could do a DNA 40 device for.
So for anyone looking for a DNA40 "on the cheap", here's what I did. I ordered the DNA40 board obviously, that was $60.... Now by the time you add in a box, a 510 connector, a usb charger, buttons, screen bezel, etc the price can start climbing up quite a bit... But I found a simple solution....
Elev8 Vape (I assume mentioning them isn't a problem since they are a forum supplier I believe) is selling busted Cana Modz DNA 30s. Anyone who has been around for a while knows these things were prone to failure and had tons of issues. So apparently there are tons of these things just laying around that had to be replaced. They are selling them for $5!
It's possibly a bit of a pot luck, but with any luck what you'll get is a box that includes the 510 connector, buttons, wiring (battery and 510 wiring may need to be replaced to ensure it can carry enough current), battery holder, and with luck a working USB charger for $5! Slap the DNA 40 in it and you've got a DNA40 device for $65... You can't beat that. Saved enough money that I can still purchase a T8 once they are released or possibly even wait for a higher wattage temperature protection device.
I would replace the 510 with a MFS Floating Pin 510 anyway so that wouldn't matter.

I meant FDV not MFS. I've got one hanging aroind too.

Is it still worth it if shipping is 15$? There is still the blue in stock only. Fasttech is going for 20$. Not sure.I just jumped over there and ordered two, a red and a silver. Couldn't pass it up. Parts alone are more than 5 bucks. Thanks for the tip. If anyone wants one they should probably jump quick, they're going fast.
