My atomo after so much troubleshooting, filling the black insulator at the top still cannot fire the atty even thou the top cap shows 4.2v. Gave up and throw one corner liao. Went to get a hawk. Damn power and sturdy mod.

My nemesis and astro feel so lousy compare to the new hawk. Mayb coz its new.

now targetting the dna30.

A lot of difference between the clone and the orginal? Also whats the gi2? Is it a dna30 also?

There are couple of fake clones or clones are of sub standard, got be careful choosing the better quality clone, the clone that I have it, able to fire up to 32W on 0.8 ~ 1.5ohm and I've not tried on sub ohm, not my preferred
Lowest firing at 7W

And for all DNA beware of placing battery in reverse as it will fried the chip

And for those builder of the clone DNA, some of the quality are bad and some the body are of heavy metal

There is also mini clone using LiPo battery, it doesn't not last a day and require constant charging

So need careful souring and comparing which is best for you

Pbusardo interviewed the founder of HouseOfHybrids. He explained that the lack of reverse protection is due an inherent effect of the DNA chip: it's programmed to "read into" the battery; allows the chip to determine battery life, battery status etc. Reverse protection is typically implemented by using a diode in the circuitry. The problem is that implementing a diode will effectively prevent the chip from reading into the battery.

Yup. In case someone was interested in these nerd talks.

Nice info, At least now I am aware that why there is no reverse protection in DNA and Clone DNA

that's interesting..
at the same time, disappointing I would say because other VV mods out there like the eVic has reverse polarity protection and also "read into" the battery.
Maybe they should do something to the chip itself.

With that said, I'm not sure if it really can be done, just sharing my thoughts..

cheers!

Haha. Doesn't most other mods only read battery voltage? That feature is easy and isn't much. I can't remember where I got the spec sheets from previously, but the DNA does a hell lot more than any other chip currently avail. It's supposed to monitor the battery's capacity and status, and stuff like voltage sag. It's pretty intricate stuff.

Eta: I think an example will be like. If you use a DNA, you'll see that depending on what wattage you set, the battery level will change. So it takes into account current draw and voltage sag. Additionally when using a battery like the aw IMR 2000 mah, the chip will typicall cut off operation even when the battery is still at 3.7 or 3.6V. That's cos the chip reads into the voltage sags and kinda somehow figures out that that even though it's supposed to still have capacity, it's not enough to power say 0.5 ohms at 30watts and so it resets. Yup!
