DNA200

[paulbee]

Hi all

Birthday soon so may get myself a DNA200 but don't want to go to town, so hoping to get one as cheap as possible!

If anyone has seen any going cheap, I owe that's a big ask, then please let me know.

Also if anyone has any advice on what ones to go for, or more importantly avoid!

I'm thinking of getting the Hcigar VT133 as like that can replace the batteries.

Thanks for reading

Paul

I wouldn't be without my wismec reuleaux.
Batteries last all day.
Stands up nice and sturdy.
And fits perfik in the hand.
Really good for £100 from China vendors

The efusion duo would be a good one to get. Gives you the option of dual 18650 for 133 watts or a lipo for the full fat 200 watts

They are good, just be aware that the 2 cell 133 W models have a reduces resistance range because the max output voltage is 6 V instead of 9 V, not a problem for re-builders but could be running high watts or pre-built coils. Even though some manufactures don't pass on the year warranty on the board Evolv will repair your mod (99% sure, but I don't speak for them) except for one on the SMY models because of the way the casing is glued, but even then if you took the board out they probably would.

Evolv will only deal with the board. When the DNA 40 in my esquare went t**s up I had to get windows to remove the board because they wouldn't touch the mod

I've got a Reuleaux DNA 200 and an Efusion mini DNA 200

The battery life on the Efusion is a bit pants but its my work mod so I can charge from my PC

The Reuleaux is top notch, battery life lasts for a couple of days and it feels quality

I looked at the Hcigar but it looked sort of cheap if that makes sense?

Cheers Dave

I have lost count of the people that have posted about Evolv fixing their DNA 200 mod when the manufacture or vendor wouldn't help on the DNA 200 forum, it is not their responsibility and they prefer you to return the board for obvious reasons.  So much that Evolv posted that they can't do it with that SMY mod, but SMY are opening a US service centre to handle US customers anyway.

So they still warranted the board for you which is over and above the call of duty.

Could be the fact it was a dna 40. It was worth @windows doing it though as he upgraded the wiring in the mod when he put the new board in

Maybe ask aaront903 about his RX200

[aaront903]

sorry mines gone,thanks for the shout though

I wouldn't recommend a Realeaux, don't get me wrong I do have one but it's like carrying around a 1970s table lighter. Totally impractical in regards to day-to-day portability.
There are a few DNA200S around the £100 available on the slow boat but it's best to look for bargains. I have a couple of Simeyues (SMY) that I picked up for £75 each.

Alternatively you ou could get one built by Vapiing Bad or Windows, it doesn't have to be a walnut burr work of art.

I would say that's subjective on the kind of work you do.
I use 2 rolos every day with ease then at night I use my foggatti

[SteveF]

I suppose if you can have a Reuleaux in each pocket things balance out?
Or cup holder in the car/van/tractor for each one? Perhaps you fly a desk?

I used to think....'oh God another box mod. Does every mod have to be so damned square!' but then I tried to use a rolo as my ADV, doesn't fit in your jeans back pocket, looks like you have a small erection in the front pocket, rolls around in cargo pants side pockets or jacket pockets, leaves the belly pocket on a hoodie straining.
In fact you end up carrying it in your hand or leave it in the car.

I took mine to the pub, guy with an IPV 4S picked it up said 'hmmmm...Rolo DNA200?..NICE!..sod carrying that around'

Does the Foggatti vape any better than the Rolo.....or is it easier on the hand?

This is the sort of thing I mean www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/threads/dna-200-watt.680148/page-271#post-17663015

i was very impressed with evolv. stand up company. fixed a third party device and had to contact the manufacturer to order a part from china. which they paid for! they did not even charge for a new battery. simply amazing company. yes, you can tell i am pleased with their cs.
