So I have ordered a 5pack of the X4, T6, and T8 coils. I will mix some 2% juice and run the tests again, this time using DTL. Actually, since I have the X4 readings on MTL already, it will be interesting to see how much DTL drops them.
Why not use a nic strength representative of what most DTL vapers are likely to use? That would be something on the order of 0.5%, not 2%....

For those of you "contemplating" trying a TC mod, this is a deal that cant be beat. A genuine Evolv DNA75 for $20.

You can run it in VW mode or in TC mode if you want to experiment. Put a SS430 coil in there and try it both ways, a good way to see what temp your build is running even if you are running VW.

Its a good & cheap way to tiptoe into TC. If you dont like TC you can still use it in VW.

Actually, it would be somewhere between 0.9% and 1.8%. My experience, anyway. There are quite a few MTL vapers in my circle of friends and family and that range is representative.

(I'm both DL and MTL)

Dumping DNA75 mods at well below the cost to manufacture them?

Yep, wholesale co-op prices on the board alone are like $30.

Not sure why they are dumping them, but i grabbed 5 for myself. I read all the reviews and all in all they were positive. The only negative I saw was some folks complained about the fire button "throw" being too long, and I saw a few who said it stuck once in a while.

3mg here. I made a bunch @ 1.5mg for a while but I added nic to make it 2mg instead of chucking it. Back to making 3mg for me.

Question:

What is the length (time) of a "typical" DTL draw?

Depends. Some take super hot short draws. In TC I take a long even pull of maybe 3-5 seconds.

Those Kangers are great. They were never real popular to begin with, and with the 75c now released, it appears folks are clearing out any old 75 stock they still had. Can't beat that 75 board for $20.

Sitting down, facing forward.
OK, so in the interest of science, and to give a definitive answer, my mean DTL hit is 3.96 seconds. That's on a DNA75 and a DNA200/ERM+. On my DNA200/1590G the mean is 3.76 seconds. On my DNA250 the mean is 4.28 seconds. It's funny the two outliers average out to almost the same 3.96 seconds (4.02 seconds).
