What's new

Hello from M-VAPES new uk based vaping equipment and accessories

Hello ok at last i have the Hana dna30 Box Mod to test.
I have been sent a test product so please note it is only a test product and has not been finished with anodizing and logo's.
I want to be as open and honest about this product with my customers and fellow vapers because with it being an electronic device there is a lot that can go wrong, i don't think any other vendor would care as much as i do about this one particular mod.
Because its a clone of a high end electronic device i want to be 100% happy before i sell it.

Firstly let me point out that as far as i am aware from my extensive research there is only one factory in china that actually makes the hana dna30 box mod, this factory we are dealing with direct, they supply all other companies in china.
The manufacture we get them from supplies companies such as cloupor etc..

Some of these companies that the factory is supplying are stating on there item description that the box mod runs the evolve dna30 chipset, this is a lie! they say this for marketing and promotion and it is false information!

Unfortunately some vendors in the uk and in other parts of the world are selling these and just using the information given to them by there Chinese supplier, e.g stating it runs an evolvedna30 chipset.

Now because we are actually dealing direct with the company that makes them and supplies all other Chinese companies we know that it is a dna30 chipset clone but possibly a very good one, I need to run some tests and im as new to all this as anyone so help might be needed by some fellow vapers with more of an insight into electronics that me.

on first impressions the build quality is very very good, it came very nicely boxed with full uk English instructions. no bad translation instructions woo woo!
It is made from 6061 billet aluminium and is very well machined.
The buttons are very nice and smooth with a smooth click action.
The screen display is clear and straight and identical to the dna30, the 510 thread is very smooth and so far has accepted all atomizers i have in hand to try. inside is very neat and tidy and the wire thickness and gauge is suitable for use no skinny wires here, soldering is clean and neat, there is a some hot glue but as to be expected to hold everything in place and its fairly neat.
So far i have inserted an efest IMR 2100mah 30a 18650 battery and been running it all day with a kayfun and a 1.4ohm coil at 10watts everything is fine as to be expected as this is relatively low power and not really pushing the device.

So far i have done some very simple and limited voltage and ohm tests, the ohm of the coil build measured on my usb ohm checker matches the reading on the hana mod at 1.4ohm this also matches the reading i get manually testing on the multimeter.

I have set the hana mod to 12.2watts and it tells me it is firing at 4.2volts, i then connected our inline voltmeter and this reads 4.16 volts so pretty damn close im certainly happy with that.
I repeated the same test at 30watts and the hana mod tells me that is 6.5volts, this is correct with ohms law. the inline voltmeter measured 6.32volts so again pretty damn close.
please let me know your views people as i really want this to work for all of us vapers i want everyone to be happy with what we sell.

aww just stock em - we won't sue you if they explode ;-)

pbusardo has done a review so you can compare results:

I've just read a post on Facebook that one went a bit wonky at 0.5 ohms and caught fire after 2 pulls on it. If this is true or not I don't know, also they may not be the same type as yours or could just have been a faulty one.

Who knows?

Glad you are testing them out mate.

If its on facebook it must be true! the day i believe anything on there is the day i want someone to take me outside & shoot me. It certainly looks well made,tidy wiring,good machining on the box i would happily own one from what i can see.i really like the look without the logos, thanks for the update matt,i hope you decide to stock them because i will get one for sure.

Of course, I'm dubious too just putting it out there for information sake

Looking at the pictures and in all honesty, they look like they are fairly well made. The hot glue looks a bit slap dash, but as you say it does its job, and with the cover in place, it hides it and as long as it works, there is no issue..
How does the menu compare to the original? I know the Hana DNA20 that Vape Geek got in had some issues with functions not working, such as left and right hand mode and also stealth mode I believe.
I like it, and I was looking at getting a DNA so I would be interested, if you was to sell these do you have a price in mind as of yet?

Will be checking back on this thread and keeping an eye.. Thanks for taking the time though and checking it out before committing to sell these. Very thoughtful :)

P.S. purchased 2 Caravela Clones from you the a week or so back.. They are amazing :D

Hi thanks, i have not put it down since getting it so i am vaping away all hours of the day and so far so good.
All menu functions work correctly
left to right screen switching
locked mode
stealth mode
power lock mode
just trying to run down the battery to see what happens then with low battery messages etc..
i will also do a sub ohm build and test again.
 
Sounds promising Matt. Subscribed to this thread and am keeping a keen eye on this :)
 
Hi Matt
you can you test for the following functions and report back
1. Flip screen mode ( while locked holding down the fire button ( i think the Up button should give you left or right and flip screen )
2. again in locked mode holding down the fire button and the bottom button ( it could be reversed between these two features ) should switch the device into stealth mode.
3. in Normal firing mode holding down both up and down buttons should lock the wattage settings so you cant accidently adjust them.
4. in locked mode once it goes into standby ( screen off) the unit should require a full 5 clicks to fire up again ( some of the other models fire up with single press once its supposed to be locked ).

finally do you have a ETA on these actually being in stock. a list of colours available and of course a price!

edit ignore most of the above i somehow missed your post.
only thing i dont see is the confirmed wattage lock as i assume the locking you mention is the firing lock.
