Hey everyone! Out of curiosity, where are y'all at on total puff count for your Dna 200? I own a vaporshark Dna 200 with a total puff count of 37,402. Curious to see everyone's answers considering my first two vaporsharks were duds that quit after about two weeks of use. I had a new chip put in under warranty and it has performed flawlessly. Have been nervous with the longevity and reliability of this chip.

Sorry,

Personally I could not give even the littlest of shits to a frikking puff count.:headbang:

For me, does the device work or not work over an extended period of time?

Should I have a "Taking A Dump Counter" installed?:poop:

Would you be interested in the result's of said count?:crazy:

I sure as hell hope you are not!:D

I like how you apologized for being in a bad mood before typing anything else.

I am ALWAYS IN A BAD MOOD WHEN IT COMES TO PUFF COUNTERS!:xD:

Perhaps of wasting perfectly good memory and other electronic terms, install a Pedometer instead of a frikking puff counter!

Heck even a Pokemon finder for all I care.

Just not a frikking puff counter:cuss2:

Yes I did thank you very much:bliss:!!

Very important for a man of my advanced years.

And the Good Lord Willing, I will poop again tomorrow:vino:

But for now, I am looking forward to my nightly brew of Hot Buttered Rum and going to bed dreaming of a Puff Counter Free World when I wake tomorrow morning when I hope to poop once again!:giggle:

Where in the menu do you find it?

I did say out of curiosity...... I wouldn't say the puff counter is completely useless. I believe it helps determine the amount of activity a device has had. Pretty much the same as an odometer on an automobile. I redid my main screen since voltage is kind of pointless since it only shows when your actually firing plus my screens on the bottom so it's really a waste. All in all if your hungry eat a snickers ☝️

I own quite a few mods, so the DNA200's I do own get used in some form of rotation-but here goes.

Hotcig V1-(My first DNA200, had its board replaced within a month of purchase, failed the day I got it)-7965 (Wow, I should use these mods more, 11 months old, I do own 26 regulated mods though lol).

Hotcig V2( Failed within a month, board replaced within about 2 weeks-was sent for free due to the issues I had with the V1 only to develop the same issue lol)-2325 puffs.
This states since reset, so it may of been more, or I have hardly used the device at all!

Efusion-(Worked since purchase, only issues have been with hotcigs)- EEPROM read kept failing, I am using VirtualBox as I am on a Mac, I can't install bootcamp due to a broken superdrive, tried to force the mac into thinking it was a model without a disc drive to install an ISO but no luck. So no data right now, sorry about that.

Finally, the Wismec DNA200, which is my favourite, - 7861.

After doing this, I realise they have not had much use at all, much less than I thought they have had. Assuming the Efusion falls into the same range, it will be somewhere between 2000-8000 puffs.

I had a near heart attack moment, when I just connected the Wismec, in device monitor, it was showing the voltage as just 1V for one cell, and the others all under 1V! I then realised it had no batteries in lol.

I have quite a few DNA chipped mods (15 or so). I just looked at the one I've been using as my work mod and it over 50,000 puffs so far. It still runs as good as the day I bought it (VT133). All my DNA nods still run as good as the day I bought them for that matter.

PS I had to look in the device monitor because I don't really pay attention to the puff counter. That's just one of them, I'm not hooking all of them up to Escribe to look.

I actually did connect up my mods to check this- suffice to say I have time on my hands, I only have 4 DNA200's but using parallels is bloody slow, wish I could get bootcamp on here again working but my superdrive has failed so I can't get windows to work.

I have only had problems with the Hotcigs, and I don't think this was Evolv's fault at all, they fixed them super fast for me, but rather the way Hotcig had treated them and wired them up. I am pretty confident that my DNA200's will last a long time, you never know, maybe even a lifetime! (Wishful thinking, but it could happen).
