Even if you did find them you wouldn't want to use them. AW IMR 18490's have a limit of C 15 amp. 30 watts on a .4 ohm coil only generates 7.7 ish amps (ohms law calculator is awesome). AW IMR's are BY FAR the best 18490 you can get, just make sure to get authentic ones (ie not from ebay or b&m). You can vape 30 watts on them no problem, the battery just won't last very long. Hope this helped.

Haven't decided if and when to buy the 18650 tube. I do have quite a few Sony 30 amp batteries but i don't think I'd prefer the look

Of course the ZNA looks the best with the 18490 tube it came with, 100% flush mounted with the DNA30 backpack...But you only get + or - 4 hours of vape time... With the 18650 body tube it is + or - 10 hours from my experience ( I have had 12 hours)... Look how nice the 18650 Gunmetal tube looks on my ZNA.....plus it feels better in the hand due to the extra length..IMO

Buy one....you wont regret it...

Edit: I forgot to mention the battery times I experienced where with the ZNA set @ 12 watts

Apparently the previous owner filed the center pin so flat tops are out of the question. I did order 2 new AW IMRs a few days ago so I'll have 5 on hand. If the vape time is similar to the lipo in my hana mini v3 that should be sufficient

How do like the Hanna DNA mod vs. the ZNA?

I like the fire button better on the ZNA but the up/down wattage buttons better on the Hana. I like that the hana has a pre-cut groove to make attys look flush. I like the size of both of them so I'm not sure which one to give the nod to in that department.

I really like the USB charge port in the hana but I have ran it dead a few times especially at higher wattage. Kind of nice to be able to just pop another battery in like the provari.

I'll most likely let the Mrs trade up to the hana and have me use this guy. Hopefully she keeps it charged. She has a habit of running her phone dead and not recharging the thing days at a time.

My ZNA has arrived from electronicstix. It's a mixed bag in terms of how happy I am. One thing I've noticed is that left hand mode doesn't work. I'm left handed, so it's kind of a bummer. I can activate left hand mode, but nothing changes. Also included in my ZNA was a handwritten note that says "replaced switch and tested to bring up to current spec" Is this a refurb, or return? Serial#873.

Hmmm I wonder what that is all about?
Keep us updated on the switch situation....
