Well, maybe we finally will get the 250W upgrade, as they made for the prior RX200.It has the updater and the .bin file. The .bin is labeled as 4.0 so I have to think it's just the original as that's what came on mine.
Maybe they're getting ready for an actual update?
the Software IS the Firmware for these devices, they just call it software because they updated their website lately and probably changed naming a bit for categorization purposes, it is weird though that they did not include a changelog in that page.I saw that yesterday but ignored it thinking it was the software only and not the device firmware. Guess I was over thinking it.
I've not tried it yet.
It's possible that they provided the original Firmware, due to people uploading the RX200 Firmware to their RX200S.Looks to be the original firmware...I imagine that they would do this so when they offer an updated firmware you would have the original to fall back on if needed or desired...
Just a guess though!
What FM are you talking about? You installed the RX200 FM?It's not making any difference as far as I can tell since I installed the firmware.
ok man ask these folks I have stuff to do.This page is for the RX200 and listed 4 versions

Well, that is why the DNA200 costs 4 times as much as the RX200, you get what you pay forThe 4 versions including the older versions is for the RX200 and not the RX200S. I posted the links for easy reference.
I wish the RX200 had software like the eScribe for my DNA instead of just firmware updates. The Device Monitor is a very nice tool.
It is not that easy, the software will require a significant amount of work and development time, and would need the involvement of the manufacturer in order to interface with the chip, all these costs will need to be reflected on the price of the product which will make it not as competitive as it is now, the business model of these mods is to provide 95% of the core functionality vapers need at a fraction of the cost, besides most people don't like using complicated software and be required to have a PC around to configure and tweak their vape, they need something simple that just works great out of the box at a low price point, and this is what the RX200 deliversI don't see why someone doesn't come up with a freeware or shareware version for an RX200.
Was going with the VaporShark DNA200 and then decided it is too expensive for my taste, besides i did not find the EScribe functionality absolutely necessary to justify the price.Do you have a DNA?
The thing is that such software solution does not exist at all for this device or any other joyetech-board device, no need to waste you time looking for one, you would have to live with whatever is available on the mod itself.Well I have a Reuleaux DNA 200w right now and I will have my RX200S is a few days so you can be assured I will be looking for software solutions and investigating all the nuances of the RX200S.

I've recently picked up a few Hcigar VT133's (DNA200) for under $80 a piece. I also saw a Hotcig DX200 for under $60. Deals are definitely out there if you look around.Without taking the price into consideration the functionality and versatility of the software and the Device Monitor are amazing. Plus if you do some price shopping, find a sale and a coupon or discount code the price can be much closer than a $100 difference.
I would be interested to know though how much you feel the RX200 is giving you the vape you want compared to the DNA200 variant after having used it for a while, and if the lack of Escribe functionality is actually that much limiting to having an enjoyable vape.I appreciate your trying to save me time looking but I still will look because I am the type of person who does not accept what is stated by others until I prove it to myself.
This firmware only gives you the ability to do trivial non-functional stuff, like changing the font, or adding a custom logo etc ... but it does not come any close to doing things like allowing you to monitor the device, or add profiles or any of that advanced stuff.Did you know there is custom firmware for an RX200?

That is because the DNA200 is a more efficient chip thus there is less power wasted during the DC-to-DC power regulation process.you need more power on the RX200 versus the DNA.
He's only comparing it to a Reuleaux which out of my 9 DNA200 mods is my least favorite. Joyetech/Wismec cut every corner possible to keep costs down, just like all their mods. Wiring that makes 2lb test ultra light fishing line look beefy. No reverse battery protection daughter board, instead mechanical rings that could double as ginsu knifes (on your battery wrappers). Let's not forget, possibly the worst 510 connector in the industry. It's my first and last Joyetech mod. In case you haven't figured it out I'm not a big joyetch fan.I would be interested to know though how much you feel the RX200 is giving you the vape you want compared to the DNA200 variant after having used it for a while, and if the lack of Escribe functionality is actually that much limiting to having an enjoyable vape.
I was talking about Joyetech/Wismec using the ridiculous mechanical reverse battery protection rings instead of a daughter board for reverse battery protection that Evolv recommends for DNA200 mods that use 18650's (batteries other than Lipo packs). My whole post was about the DNA200 Reuleaux that you say you also own.What are you talking about no reverse battery protection?
They are usually targeting the low-end budget aware market with their devices, i would honestly never buy a device from Joyetech & Co. that costs more than $30-$40 since they only have a few months of life expectancy before you would need to buy a new one, and their 510 definitely doesn't do justice to the DNA200 board, i wish i could have the Hotcig for $60-$80 here in Europe but with import tax, VAT etc .. DNA prices here are more than insane, they go for €200 and above, that is the price of a decent smart-phone or a mid-range graphics cardHe's only comparing it to a Reuleaux which out of my 9 DNA200 mods is my least favorite.

That is not old info. the Wismec DNA200 does not have a reverse-battery protection chip, they only started adding that in the latest iteration of the RX200 board and the 510 was and still the worst in the industry regardless of what Wismec's site saysThe things you are stating sound like old information with the RX200 and not the RX200S
From the Wismec Website
Stainless Steel Thread and Spring Connector: The exquisite stainless steel spring loaded 510 connector makes the device much wear-resisting and adaptable.
Boxer DNA200, Lavabox DNA200 and my Sammy Gordon DNA200.So @Spyg0at what are those devices? An inquiring mind would like to know.....
