Hey friends, been away for a while but haven't lost the bug. Here is my most recent pairing. Almost a match made in heaven?
I'll also give a shoutout to Evolv on this new DNA75c chip. I have an older DNA75 device and was never satisfied with it. Escribe was great but the on-chip LED based UI was awful compared to other firmwares. The three button design on the DNA75c with this gorgeous full-color LED is just amazing.
Nice one elmoe! Fancy-looking mod
That new color screen and UI seems much improved over the last DNA75 chipped mods (the paltry screen was one thing that had been turning me off)
who makes the 'thor' body for this?
how fast is the onboard charging? can you you pull the battery and swap them from an external charger?
I'm coming in late to the mod-chat here...it's made by asmodus, here's some of the specs if you were still wondering or didn't find it elsewhere
https://www.asmodus.com/Ultroner-x-Asmodus-Thor-DNA-75W-Stabilized-Wood-Bo-p/asmodus-thor-dna75.htm
Not sure about the on-board charging, I would hope it could charge up to 2 amps, with options to do 0.5, 1.0 or 1.5 amp on mods that support that option like AF lets you? The battery can be swapped, though, it's probably better to charge outside the mod, especially with 2 amp charging (it can get hot)
Just got the blue version of the Thor, it will take a 18650 or a 26650. It's a 75watt mod that is very manageable in the hand. It is no larger than my 200w 2x18650 Tesla Wye.
Nice...your tesla wye is fairly compact in the field of 2x18650 mods, but your wye actually has twice the battery for the same size! That's gotta be worth alot....
Am I reading the specs right that it can take only a single 18650 not x2? I'm not going to change to a FrankenBattery system and this seems ridiculously large for a single 18650 mod.
ha...that THOR mod looks nice and I'm sure it vapes nicely with the DNA75c, but I'm with you on that sentiment,
@analytika. I've always valued mods that are
fairly compact and
powerful for their relative size, whether it be built-in battery like the
evic basic & cuboid mini, or single 18650 (evic primo mini is great in this field) or 2x18650 (eleaf invoke winner there IMO)
I think this is good reason for me to nerd it up
and update my (not randomly selected)
List of TC mod sizes
Asmodus THOR DNA75c
31 x 46 x 93 =
132,618 mm3
Couldn't find weight info, probably heavy too.
Nice mod but you pay a serious premium on the mod size:battery ratio, (and $) like all DNA 75/200 mods I've looked at.
Tesla WYE
42 x 39 x 82 =
134,316 mm3
64.5g - One of the LIGHTEST 2x18650 mods.
I haven't used a tesla mod but many of you guys say they TC well
Eleaf Invoke
45 x 27 x 77 =
93,555 mm3
77g - also very light, one of the smallest 2x18650 mods, nice big screen! Dwarfs the "THOR"
Evic Primo & Primo 2.0
53 x 26 x 84 =
115,752 mm3
156g - A bit heavier, but a more handsome, fancy looking joyetech mod to compete with THOR in aesthetics, (well not really) but with much more battery/watts for the size
Evic Primo Mini
25 x 39 x 80 =
78,000 mm3
85g - Fairly light. Some say it's cheap and ugly, others think it looks & vapes fine. Also 80w with a nice screen in a slightly smaller size.
Wismec RX2 20700
43 x 35 x 81.7 =
122,958 mm3
165g
Wismec RX2 21700
46 x 37 x 81.5 =
138,713 mm3
297g
These RX2 mods are about the same size as the THOR, but
dual large batteries and with a big screen too!
Gonna rip a 26650 in it once the new QQ gets here. I don't know squat about this cell performance wise......will share any findings...
FWIW there seems to be a lot of overlap here. That is the bigger cell delivers more 'power per pound', or at least can, there are some 26650s that aren't suitable for the duty. That is there are many 18650s that beat some 26650s? And there are many 18650s up to the task, and past that (does it have the ability to drive the mod at this level?) the only advantage is in total capacity. The mod will only draw the power it needs, extra capacity will buy you nothing but time.
And you have to tote around the extra weight, much as I found with two cell (18650) mods, the extra 'heft' is not always welcome.
I had to look this up too, as I had been researching various batteries recently.
Mooch's blog is a great resource if you're looking for this kind of stuff. Initially, I was thinking 26650s would have greater capacity and amperage over most 18650 & 20700 batteries, but as OF alluded, it seems there are many quality 18650s that can match/beat some 26650s, or at least do pretty damn close considering the smaller 18650 size. Only in mah "capacity" do 26650s clearly win, but I think 2 x 18650 would seem like a better choice for many people's high-mah needs...
I am running the iJoy INR 26650 . It is 4200mAh 40A (or so the label says).
No issues with running the QQ or several of my different wax RDA builds at long sustained high wattage.
So according to moochie,
that battery is only rated to 30 amps CDR (not 40, batteries are usually over-rated) That's still fine for 90% of people's vaping needs, including mine...up until last month maybe
For the QQ my setup is: 2x VapCell 21700 3750mAh 24A (from eciggity) in an RX2 21700 (ordered one, charge for one, received 2 and was told to keep the extra. Extra is to heavy for my wife, even with the lighter 18650s, so Im still trying to trade it out for a predator 228 cuz that's what she wants lol)
Cool, I was also looking at the
RX2 21700 & 20700, very close in size. (nice come-up with your 2nd free RX2 21700
) Ironically, most of the smaller 20700 batteries I looked at had higher "CDR" (amps) compared to the taller 21700, so I went with the RX2 20700 with two
iJoy 5-leg 40 amp (30 rated)
3000 mah batteries. Less capacity than most 21700's, but just as much amperage as elmoe's larger 26650, and with two of those 20700's, you get actually much more amps, capacity and watts, in a mod that's about the same size as THOR....
But why do I need all that power (amps) you ask?
Well, I felt the need to build some monster coils, courteousy of Matt's new ceramic rods from the QQ
QUAD ROD!
Looks like multiple rocket launchers...
Add the ceramic wick...this an RBA coil for the smok tfv8 x-baby RTA.
My screen says that's a 29 amp draw to the coil, so you should be fine with a single 30amp battery, right? wrong...
As I had learned from experience, and my talks with KeroZen, on regulated mods, just because you have a 20 amp CDR battery doesn't mean you can pump 20 amps directly to your coil all day. There is some loss through the CPU / 510 connector / ADC converter. And as the battery's resting voltage falls, and during long button-pressing discharges, the battery's ability to discharge it's full amp rating falls. So it's good to "over-amp" with your battery choice when picking cells for regulated mods, also good to be safe.
Oh...and BTW...that coil is a MONSTER!
Smooth yet
huge dab-rig blazing clouds, amazing...I'm just sad that it's running through my oil so quickly! But why would I build something like that and be sad about that? Like buying a muscle car and complaining about gas mileage!
Hopefully I'll do a more complete write-up about this soon in the
tanks thread for the few who are interested in this stuff
Has any one tried using the Tubo firmware to run their DC gen 2? Seems the cruise control could be great!
No, I don't use the DC gen2 anymore...because I have...a tubo evic!
Not a fair comparison of a $20 vape to a $200 dollar vape (both are great for their respective price)
I had suggested that to Matt a while back, I think the
cruise mode on tubomyevic could be a great pairing for the DC gen2 so people don't have to hold buttons down or re-click anymore. He was cool to the idea because he didn't want to go around promoting other people's work for his own product. Fair enough...
But I would certainly promote it! Tubomyevic is a solid upgrade over the stock firmware of the mods that support it, and it's free to download for all, so if you enjoy using the DC gen2 with one of the compatible mods, and you're tired of holding down that button for so many minutes, might as well give it a try?
