Opus D or ZNA

[thegcpu]

For some reason I want a box mod now.

The opus D will be available soon and if I just wait a bit I should be able to get a ZNA. I like the look of the Opus D and haven't made up my mind if I like the look of the ZNA. I'm worried the ZNA may be heavy. The Opus D is $250.00 for a dna 20 but the ZNA is $280.00 for a dna 30. I really don't see myself hitting a .5 ohm build at 28 watts.. But you never know. Any thoughts.

I agree the ZNA will likely be heavier, but it has several advantages. It uses the same mod batteries as Zen tube mods, and is interchangeable with the Z2 parts. DNA30 as you mentioned, which has some other improvements over the DNA20 such as a power lock feature, shorter screen timeout, etc... I will rarely go over 20 watts, but the power lock feature is huge in my book.

I opted to pick up a Hana Mini V3 for $250. I got lucky and got one of the first 50 released by Hana Modz, but they will be available at authorized retailers very soon.

As this is just the "opening salvo" of DNA30 APVs to hit our collective minds... I'd consider waiting. Saying that, of the APVs out now... the ZNA is the most well developed - having the advantage of working with Evolv long before the DNA30 chip introduction.
From a personal perspective, I kinda like the ZNA form factor - in that it reminds me of a device that might have been influenced by 1930s art deco architecture.

True, I forgot about those.

I think I will..

DNA30 APVs are kinda like all the 26650 stuff coming out... and matching RDAs. There are only a hand full now... but wait 3 months, we'll be buried in 'em!
