It's turing into a vaping graveyard down there, this one hit the shed hard so thinks it done....! Did take the DNA30 zero apart but the boards are different so would mean filing and stuff...!. Hopefully fastech come through or I'll buy another, was/is a nice mod. Think they're just a bit heavy handed with the glue when fitting the 510.... Them cross heads screws look crap too... But £38 for a working temp control mod, still a good deal....

Fetched it from the garden and can't see a mark on it, tough as old boots....wire had broke so re soldered it and it's still alive... Ha ha. Now do I try fit a new 510 or all the fluff of sending back to China, bearing in mind it's clear i have attacked the 510?

Dont seem right, Its not like you broke it on purpose, risk we take buying from china, I guess Yea it's the risk we take, and overall we save...... They just don't seem to look to see if you've purchased 1000 items or 10....pretty easy to see from my account I don't try it on.... This ones easy to fix if I can get a new 510, fat daddy etc won't fit. Uave told them I have tried to repair and will it now void my warranty and can I still return, we will see.....

Fastech owe me £100 - 2hrs @ £50hr for doing their warranty repair. (That's a reduced rate as I know Chinese labour is cheaper so don't want to push it, cash in hand as well) I'll raise another ticket later....new brass insert fitted.
Reading ohms a little low but temp works absolutely fine, great temp mod for 38squid.
