This looks pretty exciting. A new dna 75 from a reputable company and at a very good price.
It was just put on their site and is still only a pre-order. I also think it's a little more expensive than most single cell DNA75 mods (~$110). I think it looks nice, but I personally think my Blood Red Lavabox DNA 75 looks better. I got that for ~$70 when Volcano had the 25% off sale on Labor Day combined with a few points I had. I'll probably get one but not until VS runs another sale.
Cheers,
Steve
The Lavabox is another nice one for sure. The list, non-sale price of most of the DNA75s is around $100, so I think the price point is on target. VaporShark is also based in the US, unlike most if them, like Hcigar, Hotcig, S-Body, etc. I also think, if I'm not mistaken, that VaporShark has a pretty good reputation for standing behind their products. I think it's pretty good looking as well and I like the rounded sides and replaceable covers.

VS does have great CS. Over Labor Day I also bought the VS VF133 for ~$135 on sale. Truth be told, I prefer the DNA200 chip. It's more efficient (97% vs 85%), runs cooler, more flexibility when it comes to power. I just think it's a better chip. I really like the dual 18650 DNA200's (133 watts). I have a few Hcigar VT133's that are great mods that I bought for a touch under $80.
I'm just saying for me personally ~$110 for a DNA75 is a no sale. You said you were surprised it wasn't getting more interest. I was just giving you some possible reasons why. I'm a big DNA guy, I'm not trolling the thread. I have ten DNA200's and two DNA75''s (both are Blood Red Lavaboxes).

Yeah, the VS VF133 looks really nice as well. I guess, I was just thinking that if Hcigar could sell VT75s like hotcakes when they came out at $100, then the VS would be popular as well. And I'm with you, I always wait for the sales. 
For some reason the 133 watt configured DNAs seem to be pretty rare. I would consider one of those as well. I'm just not wanting a 3 18650 DNA200/250, as they are just too big and heavy and I never vape over about 40 watts. Of course that could change, as at one time I said that I never vape over 8 watts.

First look Switchbox 75....... he talks a bit about it at the beginning of this video...
........ I have ten DNA200's and two DNA75''s (both are Blood Red Lavaboxes).

Dang, you have a "herd" of DNA's...... only a couple of 200's and a couple of 75's here. Not being a high wattage vapor the efficiency variation is insignificant to me. I never preorder stuff but the Switchbox interested me because it doesn't have the display on the bottom of the device, and has 2 amp charging. Loving both 200's and 75's but I also love "tiny" devices and the 200's, 75's, and even the Switchbox is a bit larger that I prefer. I'm waiting for the DNA60 (output voltage is 9 volts) as the form factor of the board will allow for a "tiny device" again like the DNA40's were. Here is a picture of a "stealthy" DNA40 which I adored. I modded many of these for my personal use. It is about the size of a 30 ml. e-liquid bottle.
Waiting for the DNA60 but still loving the 75's and 200's... but a "stealthy" DNA60 is in my cross hairs now.
30 ml. bottle on the left and 10 ml. bottle on the right....
And another version:

rDNA60, Not at that link anymore, wondering if they had this out before August 8th, if not we may not see this in the US stores.
I do like my VS DNA200, and their customer service. So I pre-ordered the Switchbox a MONTH a go. Was listed as expected shipping "late October". Still waiting. I own a few DNA75's, so I'm basically spending more hoping I like the box itself.
7 weeks after preorder, the VS Switchbox arrived today. The 2 sets of colored body caps I ordered were not in this delivery.
Not much to say, as I mentioned above, I have a few DNA75 mods already, and for my needs, I think it's the best board on the market. PBusardo just added a review of this one on his Website as well.
This will now be my #1 mod, prefer it over my HCigar VT75 Nano, and 4 SMY SDNA75's, as well as my VS DNA200. Nothing ground breaking here, but I like VS products and their customer support, so I highly recommend it.

Switchbox arrived here today also... added to my stable of 75's and 200's.... a tad shorter and a bit less in width and depth than my Evolv Reference devices.... will work well in rotation... the "buzzer" and zip charging are great features otherwise just another well built 75 I think...
Does yours have what looks like black electric tape over the top (negative side) magnet on the body? Not sure why that's there.
