I went to the casino and gambled for about 14 hours and when I gamble I chain vape like no other.. and I only changed my batteries once


Edit: oh but I didn't vape at 30 that day to conserve battery... I think I was around 18 watts... Sorry I forgot about that BUT ...

I can't vape at work so 1 battery will last me from the time I wake up. The hour drive to work, the hour back and the rest of the night... I never need to switch battery or use the pass through while in the car.. Then I charge as I sleep... My battery hasn't seen the light of day in a week or so

Sounds like my schedule, blows hard nuts.

Yeah, thats why I was wondering how dudes are vaping high wattage. Above 25 watts I get a super harsh vape, BUT thats on a single 1ohm coil and 6mg nic.

That depends a lot on the airflow and the coil surface. A larger coil surface will stay cooler than a smaller one at the same wattage.

Definitely considering pulling the trigger on the preorder for the new rDNA, but I'd rather wait 'till next week (payday).

Anyone think they're gonna sell out between now and then?

I don't suspect they'll "sell out" in that sense. They'll just put you on backorder forever. As it is, they won't be shipping the initial units until the 28th. It'll just keep getting further out the longer you wait.

I talked to VS cust supp yesterday to find out the true "thickness" of the rDNA 40 and they told me not much more than the 30. I then told them their website had it listed as 1.3" and people were having 2nd thoughts because of this.

Today on the website the thickness is listed as .9".

I sent them an email about the same thing yesterday because I was concerned that the Shark Skin I ordered wouldn't work. They told me it would fit but snugly. They also said that I would need to cancel my entire order and reorder if I wanted the Shark Skin specifically for the 40.

I don't see any way that the rDNA40 would be 1.3" but I do wonder if it is a smidge bigger if it is going to have its own Shark Skin? I also don't see a Shark Skin on their site that is specifically for the rDNA40. I'm hopelessly confused. :confused:

Since the DNA 40 board is the exact same size as the DNA 30, I cannot imagine that they redesigned housing just for this release. I am being told by others who have ordered that there is no size change.

EDIT: There are removable rails on the board but they are minuscule...certainly not large enough to have to retool the housing.

It had nothing to do with the board. The added size (not sure how much) is due to the integrated wireless charging....

OK but if you look at the size of the DNA 30 model on Vapor Shark's site as compared to the DNA 40 model...they are the same within hundreths.

I have a hard time believing that they would not use their casing inventory and that they went out and specifically created new housing...Could be wrong

I ordered regular skins and if they don't fit I suppose I will have to return them.

One of our Sharkies called them and got a different answer. He was told they are the same. Now I wonder if we didn't just run into a support person who doesn't have the correct story.

I will call today and ask again.

OK...just called again....spoke to Phillippe

The web site is a little off...3mm thicker...due to the wireless card. Customer service assures me that the skin fits perfectly on both models and indicated that there will not be a separate skin produced to his knowledge.
