This is my other daily mod, the Dicodes Dani box.
Both the DNA and the Dicodes devices have a total cycles counter (non-resettable) and a partial cycles counter (resettable).
Plus, there are various energy counters, and Dicodes also have a resettable battery capacity counter, good to verify the battery capacity.
Other mods have hit (puff) counters, but are of dubious use, as - in the case of the Cube - they reset when mod is turned off, or battery replaced - in some others.
Keep in mind that the "puff counter" in its original implementation (recall the Innokin MVP and eLeaf iStick) was meant in view of the Eastern attitudes with bodily performances; therefore not readily understood here.
There is a Smok devices feature, the "puff limiter" - which you set to a number, and the mod stops working afterward. You must reset it manually if you want to keep vaping.
To me, it would have made sense if the puff limiter would reset at midnight - but they removed the clock from mods after Gpriv1, so this limiter feature remains unexplained.
To me, it come useful the recording functions of the DNA devices, to study the different options for coils, wicks and temperature; but not the hit counter specifically.
The non-resettable counter would theoretically be useful to establish wear-and-tear of a second-hand mod, but such a market doesn't really exist.
The hit counter is mostly an useless feature on the majority of vape devices.
