Ended up canceling my rDNA 40 order.... with how well the hana 30 mini that I picked up this weekend has been running and my eventual goal of quitting vaping, I just can't justify dropping all that cash.

The ridiculous wait, issues with VS CS, paint chipping, etc didn't help my decision either.

Good luck to everyone here.... hope the rDNA 40 ends up being everything you dreamed it would be and more.

That's my problem too! Now I've got the VA rDNA 40 and Russian 91%, but I'm seriously considering now a Lemo Drop after seeing the great reviews (and of course I need a second flavor handy, right?). And then I start thinking that the DNA30 looks pretty good as a backup for only $99.

It's a slippery slope!

So after seeing all of Kiwi's twisted 30 gauge photos, I decided to give it a try. I ended up with an 8/7 wrap on a 6-32 screw. Reading right at .10 ohms. Started at .11 but dropped to .10 and has not moved since. Anyways this thing is incredible. By far one of the best vapes I've experienced. I'm currently using a kfl plus, and I've yet to hit TP. No bad flavor, no dry hits, no bouncing in and out of TP.....just consistent vapes every single time. Twisted 30 is the way to go for sure. Not just for the performance either.....it's far easier to work with twisted 30 compared to single 28.

Anyways thanks to Kiwi for the inspiration and if anyone is considering trying it....do it. You will not be disappointed.

One of my Lemo's needs a fresh coil and wick, will have to give this 30g twisted a shot when I get home.

Makes sense, no use dropping $200 if you just plan on stopping anyway.

Best thing to see when you are waiting in line, is someone ahead of you stepping out....lol. The people behind you agree with your assessment of your situation.

I enjoy vaping--so much so that I never considered ever stopping. So without trying to come off or sound like a jerk, Kimchi I wish you the best in your goal to quit.

I am the same way. I used to be a pack and a half a day smoker, and I am petrified of going back to cigs if I quit vaping. Happened to my wife. She vaped steady for a little less than a year, then she started to sneak a cig here & there. Now she never vapes anymore and is back to smoking a pack a day.....I don't want that to happen to me!

Plus, vaping (and specifically rebuilding) is just fun for me!! :)

Sounds promising, at least! I'm gonna wait it out. Nothing else in the price range with the same (mostly) positive user experiences.

Ok guys..... As some of you may remember...... I ordered my rdna40 on nov 25.... And am still waiting.... As I know many of you are.

I just wanted to give an update....lei spoke to Vaporshark today and they have gotten a new shipment of devices and a working on getting orders out.

Fingers crossed....

My black one is a year old with some peeling, you can't see it with the shark skin, the gunmetal one I have is about 3 months old with a nock or two from it accidentally falling out the truck. Sorry man
Update: I received an email back from them and this is the response I received:

We do not offer warranty repairs for cosmetics. I'd recommend getting a skin for your device to prevent further damage.

Ugh... Lol.

By "devices," I assume you mean Evolv 40 boards?
