I think you will find it too large and it also would require an auxilliary power supply of at least 4 volts to work correctly. I have a similar meter and it required an auxilliary power supply..
What about the new DNA modders board

Yeah it says something about aux battery power but to be honest I am not sure what that means, would it just mean I would need to have a separate battery for it? This is from the listing..
"- Auxiliary battery to power watt meter for measurement down to 0V"
Actually the display is quite small, it says 26mm by 28mm or close to that.
I do see that aux power says 4v to 60v so I assume that means 3.7 will not work and that is what you are talking about.
yep, to measure below 4.0 volts an auxilliary batt is needed, thus more room needed in the mod....
The screen size is 26.6 mm x 28.5 mm......but the case measures 51.3 mm x 42.9 mm x 13.7 mm....so I guess you are thinking of taking the meter electronics out of the meter case....???
Heck, if you have the room inside your mod it may be worth a try....that's what is fun about modding....
here is link to the manual for this meter..

Seem to be working great.....vapes all day and I don't vape till they cut off.....charge each night....so I have no idea how long the batts will run till cut-off.....lasting all day is good enough for me.....vaping at 8.4 watts.......

if you don't mind me askin, how did you mount your charging circuit and did you use the one from Evolv?
I'm debating if I'm going to just epoxy the hell out of it or what. same thing with the actual DNA board, I'm going back and forth on my mounting methods and tapping people to figure out what they did. Thanks in advance!
The mods hot stuff, you've got a gift. Hopefully I can produce something half as pretty.

I mounted the thumbwheel pot onto a circuit board, then used a spacer between it and the Evolv usb charging board. this combined configuration matched the usb slot and the slot for the pot wheel in the base of the enclosure....I just epoxy'd the board combination to the base of the mod....epoxy'd the back side of the boards to the base....the boards are standing on end (perpendicular to the base)....the DNA board floats just above one of the batteries and is just to the side of the fire button...

ahh, nice.
I'm debating going to a thumbwheel for mine. I'm machining my case from scratch so I have the option of setting platforms for the various boards but I'm tryin to cram as much into as little space as possible so I can get it as compact as possible.

good for you....machining your own case will allow you more options....looking forward to pics of your project....
I was playing with design, and you can actually solder the thumbwheel pot directly to the dna with the pot resting on the dna heat shield....just my thoughts....

based on the form factor I'm going for, I think I'm just gonna use a regular post pot and make a custom knob for it. Maybe a hardwood sphere polished up all shiney and stuff. 
So what are you machining the case out of?

the first one will probably be delrin just because i have a bunch laying around. Eventually I"ll be doing a combination of stainless steel or aluminum and hardwoods.
The issue here is I'm teaching myself cad/cam and how to use a CNC machine from scratch. I'm pretty handy with manual stuff and I did some 3d modeling for computer animation so using autodesk inventor isn't too hard for me. I've got some pretty exciting ideas I'm not gonna share on here because theres a slight chance I'll end up going into production and I have an interesting take on something new I hope I can pull off. I wish I was gonna have something 'soon' but it'll be at least a couple of months.

Wish you well in your endeavor......I know of 4 other suppliers who are currently working on a DNA mod......think we will see DNA mods soon.....can't say who they are, but 1 has advertised it is coming.....

Hey Retird have you heard anything about a display for the dna, I know you speak with Brandon now and again and I have heard rumors of this but have not confirmed it myself. I would actually just like to pick up another Darwin for a backup but that is proving quite difficult.
