Official DNA 40 introduction

Hey talking about been there done that, I'm going back a couple months or so, and asking... does anyone clean their Ni200 coils with a torch?

I mean like taking your little butane "torchette" and burning the sweet juice gunk off ? It seems to clean it well, anneals it too, and the flavor of the vape is fine...

uh... or did I just do some really really bad health No NO NOOO! ??

I'm psyched out now and going to wait for a response...


or I'm gonna take it off and start fresh

^Avoiding dry burning in non-TP mode and/or torching it seems to be wiser.

Yeah but even at 600F the ni tends to become softer

This. Some people immerse in water.

Some use vodka....choices???? guess we can decide whether to torch, soak, or rebuild with new coil....

Just googled butane torch temperature.... was curious. just one link of many..... Butane torch - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hi. I've been using my new Hana Mod for a few days now mostly with a nickel build in it. I've never tried to turn the temp control off. A few minutes ago, I decided to try out my subtank on it with the regular kanthal coils. It asked if it was a new atomizer I selected yes. It stayed in temp mode. So I turned that off, vaped for a few minutes, then decided to put the nickel build back on. I again asked if it was a new atomizer, and again I selected yes. But it's not in temp mode, and won't go back into temp mode. While selecting the temp you can turn it to "off". But I see no way to turn it back on if the device decides that you don't need it.

How do I get it back?

 

[dr g]

fire it for 1-2 full seconds

Dr.G will probably hate this, but I'd try a full reset, i.e. pull the battery.

Edit: Only if firing it for a few seconds doesn't work.

Sometimes it does, sometimes not.

Thus, your solution, Rossum, is best. I've heard it said that removing the battery does nothing. That is not my experience.

That said, I've found that this inability to get out of wattage mode is more a question of having a good to perfect build, meaning solid connections. When/if I get to the 1-2 second fire I know/believe I need to "fix" the build.

Just saw you EDIT, Rossum, so now exactly correct.

In the "settings mode" what does the temperature setting read? It was not clear to me from your post as to whether you manually turned "temp" back "on" prior to wanting to use nickel coil again?

I tried to turn it back on manually. I set the temperature to five or six different settings around 400. But I'm not sure how exactly to turn the temp mode back on. I adjusted the temp to "off" and clicked fire to turn it off, I assume I can just adjust the temp to a temp (say 400) and click fire to turn it back on.

Pulling the battery worked. It came back on and was in temp mode on start up. Firing for a couple of seconds did not do it.

The build was good since Monday, I don't see why it would stop working now, but it is my first nickel build, so I'm probably way off. It is working fine now, right back to the .24 ohm its been.

Yep.... setting to a temperature in "setting mode" turns temp back on.... just so ya know.....

I'm no expert in any way, but when you put back your nickel atomizer was it still hot? Maybe that threw it off?

Yabut, it didn't Hence the question.

By the way guys thanks for the help and explanations.

yes... a valid question...... there are a many reasons why a DNA40d device may not recognize a nickel coil...

It's all good now. Was an easy fix. Thanks again.

Geez up to 2k F ... Not such a good idea to torch then.
