Vaporshark DNA

[joeaux]

What resistance are you generally running and how long is the battery lasting for you?

I usually run about 1.5 ohms (that's my sweet spot in about everything I vape). The battery will last me most of the day if I'm vaping on more than one device (and I vape quite a bit, not quite chain vaping but close). But if I just use the VS maybe 4 or 5 hours. That's with it set to about 10 to 11 watts.

Looks good with the Kayfun, I was a bit worried about the overhang.

I really want a Penelope, especially now that I have a VS30 on the way.

Okay cool. Thanks Joeaux!

Depending on what topper I'm using, I generally vape around 9-10 watts. I still have my VTR and batteries and stuff... so I really only plan on using the VS for when I'm out at a bar, dinner, etc. The VTR will probably still do the heavy lifting... unless the VS really knocks my socks off.

Here's a great battery for the money. Been using it for a while now. This thing is a beast. 13,000 mAh. Yeah, 13,000 for 40 bucks isn't bad. We've used it for all kinds of stuff. Good piece of kit IMHO.

Amazon.com: USB External Battery Pack 13000mAh (Black Limefuel Blast L130X) Charger with built-in Flashlight for iPhone 5S, 5C 5, 4S, 4, iPad Mini, iPods; Samsung Galaxy S4, S3, S2, Note 2; HTC One, EVO, Thunderbolt, Incredible, Droid DNA; Motorola A

Is a 2A charging current safe for these batteries? What is the C rating? Seems to high for a 1200mah battery

Are you asking whether it's safe to plug the Vaporshark into a 2A USB source? The answer is: Yes, because it has an internal charging circuit that charges its battery at a very conservative 500 mA or less. I'm confident the 15C battery in the Vaporshark could accept charge much more rapidly than that, but then the charger would either be more complicated, due to having to "negotiate" the amount of current available from the USB source.

I would like to see what the Gunmetal looks like and can't find any pics. Is the Gunmetal new for the DNA30?

 

[MandM78]

Seems like the gunmetal is a new flavor for this version. The only pics I've been able to find are the pics on the VS website that look like renders to me.

Can't even help you with a pic when mine shows up... I pre-ordered a black one.

 

[Gonzi]

I preordered the gunmetal one, I'll post a pic when I get it. The only thing posted on that color is the crapy CGI on their website that I'm sure doesn't do it justice.

 

[xtreme101]

Thanks~ I also want to jump on the preorder and would be nice to be able to see the gunmetal in a real pic.

Just got my shipping confirmation as well, USB charging in black. Got my Russian done up in clear plastic in anticipation, I'm going for the ultimate in performance to weight ratio.

Are those of you that have had USB versions shipping notification in the US?, anyone UK or Europe had any word?

 

[riddancex8]

Nice Russian ionmyke will look sick, probably going to rock my Helios with slotted airholes on mine

I'm glad they started shipping them, gives me hope for mine. I can't wait for them to start shipping the mag ones, it's my mod, and I want it now!!!

 

[MandM78]

FYI... if you got a shipping confirmation... I'm jealous. Very jealous.

Looks like those of us who didn't get the shipping confirmations yet will have to wait a little bit longer. According to VS's website this morning "All Vapor Shark DNA 30 versions will ship 3/15 or earlier."

I have an email out to them to get some more details... but looks like we have to wait and just hope that those who get them soon post pics and vids and reviews and stuff.

Update: Just heard back from them. Passin' the buck. Manufacturer's fault.

"yeah we do apologize for the delay due to our manufacturer. So now we are expecting to fill all orders on the 15th of March."
