So, I'm looking for honest reviews about this thing before I drop $170 on it. I like a heavy mod. Things I want to know are battery life, weight, charge times, performance issues if any. Things like that. My luck, I'll get the 1 of all of them that's FUBAR.

I love the lavabox.

It's not that heavy but not that ligh for me it's perfect. I'd say about a pound give or take.Fits very nicely in the hand and also jeans pocket regular carry it in my front pocket. Very solid build quality.

Battery is pretty solid for me. I vape at 40 watts on a .5 ohm crown tanks. Lasts me the whole day no problem. I hit it about 10 times per hour give or take. Right now I have it at 50% and it's been off the charger for 9 hours.The thing is the way to are shipped they are fubared you need to change two settings using escribes. I've done that right of the bat so not sure how it performs without it.
Charge time is pretty quick about hour hour and a half give or take depends if you vape on it during charging which I'm know to do quite a lot.

Only issue is that you need to change settings using escribe for best battery performance.

Check out the reviews on Youtube. I watch a few and get a general idea if it is a good device and what are some pros and cons. Mike Vapes and The Vapor Chronicles are pretty reliable and I trust their opinions.

Thanks for the honest review. I saw it while mindlessly searching online. Figured I'd ask here. Worth $170?

For me every penny.
I absolutely fell in love with the form factor and the look. Like I said the way it fits in the hand is just amazing. Nice and small that no one at work notices that I even have it.
I was also looking for a built in battery. I'm the type of a person that doesn't like to care a ton of crap around with me, I also pull double shifts at work all the time we have plenty of usb chargers laying around work that I can just grab it and plug it in.


I should have said this before I am basing the weight of it with a tank on.


This was my first jump to dna200. Before this I used egos and smoked a pack a day. I mainly used the egos in the house so it doesn't stink. After getting this I haven't had a single smoke so the amount of vapor it gives is just great.

They just recently ran a Presidents Day Sale where they Emailed me a 20% off coupon (it's unfortunately expired now). I'm only mentioning this because if you are patient and sign up for their newsletter, deals can be had. It's a great mod by the way! I bought the Special Edition Blood Red Lavabox for ~$135 shipped (was actually a little less because of points I had from a previous purchase).

Cheers,
Steve

Edit Here's a picture of 3 of my DNA200's, one of them is said previous purchase
L to R Hotcig DX200, Hcigar VT200, Volcano Lavabox (Black)

Edit 2 I just did a quick search and here's a 10% off coupon code that's active - REVI9433 (The Lavabox is ~$153 shipped via 2 day Fedex from Hawaii)
