Again, I have both so I'm not knocking one vs the other. What I said was they are 2 different mods for different types of vapers. I hate to break it to you but again just trying the dna at a vape shop without customizing it your liking on escribe is kind of like test driving a car without being able to adjust the seat and mirrors. You might like the car but the experience is going to be skewered because you can't get comfortable.

This is my '65 Chevelle SS..327 4sp..very quick off the line..Face gets pushed outa shape and you have to be a good driver just to keep it in a straight line..in no way can I can compare it to my mods...that was funny! Lol

Sorry you don't have the capacity to understand a simple comparison. Enjoy your RX bro and vape on. It's all good.

Agreed, to say the RX is the same and vapes just as well is really not true and disingenuous.

I prefer the rx200 (and my joyetech tc mods) to the Reuleaux DNA 200. Sure, the DNA 200 chip is very good and can do a lot, but I've had way more trouble with it than with the rx200. There's something to say about simplicity.

Agreed 100%!
I guess I've been struggling all along to say the same thing! lol

I have both. I bought the DNA first and I really liked the form factor so I bought the RX as a beater. Does the DNA vape better? Yes, but only after you get into the escribe software and tinker with it to customize it to your liking. Does it vape $100 better? Well, that's up to you because $100 has a different value to different people. If you like to customize and tinker around to perfect your vape then the DNA is for you. If your into crazy builds and TC then get the DNA. If you just buy premade coils and just want to pop them in and vape or you use strictly kathal in power mode then the RX is the way to go. Just my humble opinion. Two different mods for two different types of vapers.
Here's my first post. I think I pointed out the simplicity of the RX. It's what I've been saying all along. Again, I love my RX. Truth be told my all time favorite mod is my VF Classic which runs the same chip as the RX.

Like what kind of trouble with your DNA200? Mine worked right out of the box. No need to use the EScribe software if you don't want to. So I don't get that simplicity difference.

Certain atties not working well in tc on the DNA 200 while having no problems with the rx200, in several different ways. And about simplicity, sure, with the newest (beta) firmware you can change tc materials directly on the device, BUT you still need to use escribe to first load those csv files to the device. The fact is that the DNA 200 is seriously crippled (in comparison to what it can do) without escribe. Sure, you could simply use it in vw or ni200 mode, but that's like buying an off road vehicle and only doing city driving (wait, that's what people do with SUVs, isn't it). Preferences differ. I prefer the rx200. But don't misunderstand me, I'm still quite happy with my Reuleaux DNA 200.

Wow! I have the opposite problem. TC works perfectly on the DNA, but that RX200 is so damn screwy. I have a black Crown RBA on one of my black RX200 and I have it set on 20 watts at 530°F (MTL vaping). And all I did was 5 clicks to turn it off and fire and down to check the battery voltages and then 5 clicks to turn it on again. Now the vape which was pleasant before, changed to super hot. Why? I just turn it off and back on. And all of the settings are the same as before.

When I use the SS TC mode on the RX200 with SS316L, a 200°F setting is really closer to 450°F. That TCR setting assumes that the TCR is a straight line. No wire has a straight line TCR. That is totally all wrong and you will never get temperature control accurately by using such poor programming.

I've had the same exact issues with my RX200 as well which is why I've switched all of my temp control vaping to DNA200's. I think it's really more of the flaky 510 connection vs the board since I've had different tanks & atty's read different base resistances, ie one second the vape is normal then when you power it off & back on it's screaming hot. Remove the tank or attty then refire & the resistance changes.

Same here. Tc on my DNA is much more accurate and definitely smoother.

when you turned the mod back on, the resistance of the atty was still higher from residual heat, far enough out of the initial resistance that it read it as a new coil and set the base res. too high.....that would be my guess as to what happened in that instance.

So let's see if I have this right. The RX200 when turned off and then back on remembers the temp, the wattage, and that I had the ohms locked, but it doesn't remember what the cold resistance was?

I just tried the same thing with my Reuleaux DNA 200, by removing the batteries and putting them back in and I had taken a vape and it was exactly the same as before I pulled the batteries. Not only did it remember the temp, the wattage, and that I had the ohms locked, but also what the cold resistance was at.

I've been using my vape and my friend came over and mentioned how she believes that my voltage may be too high for the wattage I'm running on my RX200. I was wondering if you guys could help clarify if this is true or not?

I'm running a 0.5 ohm single coil (It's reading 0.52, forgot to lock it), at 50 watts, and it is reading 5.10v. Is this too high of a voltage? I have noticed that I've been getting quite warm hits.
