Ok, so I have had my VS rDNA 40 for about 2 weeks now and it is performing flawlessly. Tonight was a fairly cold night (0-1.5 degrees C) and I was spending a bit of time out in the garage. I set my VS down for a few minutes. When I came back to it, it performed as expected, but the screen was totally black. After a few minutes, it started lighting up again, but was garbled. Still vaping as usual. After quite a few minutes in the car (warmer temperatures), the screen was back to normal. I have never seen this problem before. Should I send it back in, or is that just a side-effect from cold weather?

There have been some rumblings about this as of late from others having similar issues. I'd be curious to see who else chimes in here as I have my second dna 40 on the way (first one is in with Vaporflask getting a new chip for other unrelated issues). I will be using the mod a fair amount in cold weather and it would be a bummer if it did not perform OK in the cold......
That's where my confusions sets in. It never stopped performing (well, It did ask me if it was a new coil, but after I selected "NO", it vaped just as good as usual. Just some OLED problems until it warmed up.There have been some rumblings about this as of late from others having similar issues.

Gotcha. Yeah I would imagine it's just due to the OLED display being sensitive to cold. (duh....lol)..... But then again, I have read posts of people here who have had zero issues with their DNA 40 screens being used in cold environments. So I guess some are more sensitive than others? not sure....
maybe its one of the early released faulty dna40 boards? i know that evolv had to recall em and send out fixed ones. I think if it is a faulty board you can get it replaced for free, they specifically mention that it was a problem with the jumbled up display.
An to further this, I believe they said it was a faulty connection to the display. If yours is marginal, it may only happen in the cold as metal contracts. I would contact Vapor Shark.
