There are so many questions going around though in regard to this.
Which version will it be?
Yosen have reportedly said they have now re designed the who chip and wiring of the new versions which will be coming out around now, they stopped production/selling for the last few weeks while they did this.

SO which version is this one from FT??

This is the very poor and dangerous picture of the inside of the Yosen clone which was the 'old' version, not the new one which they are just about to start selling but we don't know much about that one yet




The buttons go onto a daughter board which has bare copper wires from it going to the main board.
Now this leads to a new thing, would one be able to change this above board to a DNA 40 board with that Daughter board? or not?


Oh, looks like i beat robby to this one today with the time difference between us

Had a lie in -V- That looks scary but very promising for a DNA40 foster home

[robby]

That looks very do-able. Cant see a problem with putting the DNA40 in there and improving the mod 100%

[-V-]

Problems being the daughter board they used for the Fire Up and Down buttons mate its using a common ground the dna-40 needs separate grounds, the dna-30 can use a common ground, so that daughter board is no good for the DNA 40....
But there could be a way around it just scrape off the traces on the original board and run wires to the switches separately....
You'd need 6 wires, 2 from the Fire, 2 from the Up and 2 from the Down buttons,,,,

Being very disappointed in the latest MVP offering from inokin, think I might invest my hard earned in one of these at that price robby. The ships in five days probably means it would arrive about February.

I think middle of January would probably see it delivered, even this time of the year

I`ll have to do a bit of research, but I dont see it being a major problem

The review of that box is an absolute shocker.

Be okay with a DNA40 transplant, and a nice looking bit of kit

[robby]

Nice to see that the metal is SS , most have these are aluminium that the buttons etc fit into
