Just built myself a dna75 parallel mod, everything is working ok but the battery percentage is a little up and down. Its on 75% i take a toot and it will drop down a percentage or two and then go back up a percentage or two.
Do i need to change anything in escribe i took the chip from a single 18650 mod thought it would still be the same settings as only being in parallel.
I have been through all the connections and all seem good, im using a married set of vtc6 batteries
Thanks

They should be the same settings, you could run battery analyser to get a curve for those batteries for the best accuracy, but the 75 is just a dumb battery meter that works off voltage not like the fuel gauge on DNA 200 & 250. In Device Monitor (have pack & level checked), have a vape and watch if it takes a long time for batteries to recover after a puff, here is an old 25R you can see that the battery takes a few mins to recover. It went down to 71% nad right now the gauge is 81% after that puff, the time scale for DM was 60 seconds.

Sorry problems with internet, just done it and it dropped from 75 to 73 then went to 74 and then 75 took about 30 seconds. Done a video but cant upload it so took a picture hopefully it helps. Thanks VapingBad

I don't think it is anything to worry about just the way the meter works and the time it takes batteries to settle.

I have noticed a difference in readings between the 75 and the 200 Grandad and VapingBad. Not just battery levels, but temperature readings too. I see a rise (after initial pre-heat) up to "set" temp on the 200, but if I put the same atty on a 75, it hits the limit almost immediately. All being set the same (pre-heat, watts, temp limit etc.) I assume a firmware update will rectify this in the future...... hopefully.
