Happy Aloha Friday maties. The weekend is here and it couldn't have come at the nick of time. These double shifts just kicking my .....
Ahoy! Think I am going to call it quits for the day.
Good day though, started making a few desk caddies including a new offering (soon), got all the body wood together for the batch and started cutting it down to size, bit of maintenance to get ready for making the batch, parts inventory and ordered the parts I need to finish the pre-orders.
I also shot a E-Mail to Evolve about the DNA12 and how the power requirements work as many people (including myself) noticed it stops pumping out power at around 3.6volts. The data sheet says it will run off of 3.2 volts, but perhaps that is only if it is asked to deliver the minimum output power. I don't know, so I asked.
If anyone else has any info on it, we would be pleased to hear from ya!
Later all, arrr

Personally I've been using the Efest 2250 mAh and the EH 2000 mAh. I was thinking what you might be thinking, that some battery types can't deliver the current needed when they start to get drained. Makes sense too as the current demand while vaping is pretty high.
Cappy I sent you an Invite to a really cool First Person shooter/MMO beta called Fire Fall hope you enjoy it!

Yeah. I'm wondering whether it'll do the same with better batteries like AW.

Same for me with panasonic or aw imr, as i wondered about this battery drain and cut off on dna20 also , Nebulabrot from this forum explained me what Brandon from Evolve confirmed him :
Personally it cut around 3.65-3.7v most of the time and those batterys are news.
Same battery, Panasonic 18650CH, and mine cuts at 3.5V. Which means that the chips are not tuned the same way... Maybe Evolv could work on that a bit more.
4.2V > 3.7V, knowing that we could easily go down to 3.1V, that leaves a hell lot of voltage unused

Happy Saturday maties. I just saw TUC's old Dread on the classys. She is still a beauty. I just couldn't resist the price. Will shoot pics when she pulls into port.
Morning crew!
Saw that as well! All my bills are first week of the month though

I've been suffering through some insomnia lately because of these double shifts. So I've been toying around with some finishing wax and my buffing attachment of my Dremmel and I must say, I can almost achieve that just out of the box shimmer that Cappy provides.
Well, at least it isn't something new that has cropped up then.

From past conversations, maybe it is the fact that even though the batteries still have 3.5v potential, or more, that when a higher current demand is put on them the voltage nose-dives as it tries to provide power. Yet another reason to get higher capacity batteries I guess.
Ah, another person who likes 'shiny' eh? Alot of people do seem to like it, others like me prefer a satin finish. In fact, when I make a mod for myself I don't even usually wax it, just some sealer coats and I leave it more rough as I like to feel the wood.
Ahoy!
Just heard from Brandon over at Evolve, he said that the 3.2V limit is "Loaded", so that means your DNA stops working when you press the fire button and the battery dips to 3.2V because it's lost much of its charge.
When you let go of the fire button the battery will spring back up to around 3.6v "unloaded".
Pretty much what we thought, so it is working like it always had, nobody had questioned it before I guess.

has anyone compared AW Protected vs AW IMR if they actually make difference in performance?
I know Provari makers only recommend IMR batteries as they can handle more amps, and I wonder if it'll be the same with DNA's.

Protected batteries have a 5.2 amp max discharge. Evolve recommends at least a 6 amp I believe. I am guessing it will work but won't work full wattage with lower ohm stuff. Although what I don't understand is according to ohms law 1 ohm at 12 watts is only 3.46 amps so why evolve recommends 6 I am not sure.
