I'll try my best, if I'm able, to help make sure that Joe Idiot is fully aware of the dangers involved when building this particular device.
I would take your intent more seriously and feel you are on the up and up if modders weren't already - and have for some time now - been modding with 40A, 200W and 60A, 300W converters using 3S lipo packs. So far, no Joe Idiots in the lot.
But more importantly, if you're truly serious - why aren't you out there with those modders working with 40A and 60A converters looking for Joe Idiot and telling him how you feel about him working with 3S lipo packs?
What's different with the DNA200 that it makes it your special agenda?
....I've yet to see what (if any) are the fail-safes if the board malfunctions or fails.Unlikely to happen immediately, but it will eventually fail...somewhere.In the event it does, did the beta team test any board failure scenarios?And if so, what are those scenarios and the fail-safe's in place for them?My main concern is if the balancer fails.Will the user know it via a warning on the device?Or will the user have to connect it to their PC?
These questions are still pending for the beta-testers...
Because the manufacturers of those 40A, 60A and higher converters aren't marketing a DIY project that's designed as a plug 'n' play application requiring the use of a 3S Lipo in a device that'll be near your face (and others around you).......made for Joe Idiot or Johnny Engineer.
IDK theres ego's that are .2 sub ohm capable now and they are lipo based, theres a whole lot of lipo use in e cigs craig, just not 3s..Lipo use is enormous.. Isticks, clones of isticks, its huge mvp's, ego's, etc etc
C rating on LiPos is based on their internal resistance. I'd much rather use a High C rated LiPo at well below it's capabilities than a low C rated one on the limit.I was going to say that I never use below 35C rated batteries for that very reason, but I just checked and I have 25C cells in my YiHi 150W Timesarerough please check your basic maths. You're saying that the iStick 50W has a battery that won't safely deliver 50W (@3.3V 50W is 15A, @4.2V 50W is 12A).
Best to discharge them totally flat with a load.
Retail for the board looks like 80 USD, 54 GBP from first pre-order I have seen, not sure if it is permissible to link here. In the UK anyway that is substantially less than the SX350J (70 GBP).
Donchya wanna be a YT star?
Looks like today's the day, Saturday that is StealthVape and Cloud9 in the UK have both been taking orders for boards that are "in stock" yesterday, nothing on the Evolv site except the Cad files and the updated data sheet/instructions http://www.evolvapor.com/DNA200/.
I've been trying to soak up as much as I can about this beasty. I'd kind of like to get an opinion on something that has come to mind. I'm with the opinion as a general rule it take about 4 times as much brass to carry the same current copper will, so where does this place most 510 connectors with the brass center pins?For me not in anything I build with a DNA200! Now I just have to figure out how solder 12 gauge copper to a copper 510 center pin.
First questions come to mind...1. What kinda of juice tincture is Rip vaping?2. 12-pack or 6 doubles?Summary...Probably not a good idea to post a video about a new product release ....when stoned or wasted.
Check this out............DNA 200 Manual, Tutorial and software
so the DNA200 will take max input current of 23Amps and able to provide output current continuously up to 50Amps max, how does it possible?
