Hey does the RX300 come with the newest dna 250 or dna 300 chip? I was wanting my next mod to have a dna chipset cause ive never owned one. Think EScribing it might be very beneficial not to mention cool to make TC more accurate. Might consider getting this though with whatever chip it comes with if I can get for 40-50 bucks. 4 18650s would be awesome. I dont have an RX200 so no experience with Reuleauxs but seems really nice. Maybe smart to see if anyone else comes out with a 4 battery mod in the coming weeks/months. I just got an Hohm Wrecker G2 that im trying to learn lol so I can wait.

I don't think this one is an actual DNA device. I haven't seen anything that states that it is, but it does seem to be pretty darn intelligent. It has dual circuit protection and reverse polarity protection, so yay for that! :) I really love the RX200. It has been a very stable, reliable device, and I LOVE the hand feel.

It has a Joyetech chip, not a DNA. The DNA200/250 takes three batteries, or two for a lower maximum wattage, not four. The DNAs also go to 200w for the DNA200, or 250w for the DNA250.

Is there such a thing though as the DNA300? I think I've seen others talking about it but might just be pure speculation. You would think Evolv would want to join the 300w party. I'm thinking worse case scenario, I could get an rx200 with the DNA 200 cheaper now.
No DNA300. The DNA250 is fairly new. The rx200 has a Joyetech chip. Wismec did have a Reuleaux DNA200 but it's not manufactured anymore.

If the 4 batteries are in series they may not give more endurance at lower watts. I compared a cuboid and a vtc mini with the puff timer at 30 watts and the total seconds of firing time were exactly the same. The 300 should be called Stonehenge.
That's due to inefficiencies in the chip though. Has nothing to do with the batteries being in series. If everything is working as it should two batteries should always give double or more the battery runtime, whether parallel or series.

Its interesting I get better batt run times on the 300w Primus than I do on the 200w RX vaping the same .15 ohm coil at the same 160w..go figure

Different chips have different efficiencies. Would seem that the Joyetech chips aren't very efficient (though I'm fairly happy with all of mine).

I did my test at 30 max watts, not 160. Multiple batteries wired in series are necessary to make high watts safe and practical. If there was no difference between parallel and series wiring of batteries they would be rated for the same max watts. But my point is, for people who never go above about 50-60 watts and want the endurance of several cells in a mod they should be looking for a parallel not a series setup. There are several on the market. I have a Cuboid gathering dust because it uses up 2 batteries as fast as one battery running my settings.

That's good for folks who never vape above 50-60w but that's not me..haven't vaped below 60w in years..

I vape this clapton build 70-75w at least in the RTA-2 even.... different strokes and all that, lol

BTW, all three batts install with the + end up in my 300w Primus seen here..
(parallel maybe??).. I truly don't know how it's wired but I do enjoy better battery run times compared to my RX200 mods running the same .15 ohm coil at the same 16Ow..go fugure

Parallel or series, doesn't matter. The amp draw at the batteries is the same in both cases. Sure, bucking is more efficient than boosting but the difference would hardly be noticeable in practice. The Cuboid being less efficient than the tc100w (which it is) isn't due to the latter being wired in series.

Series, determined in Djlsb vapes' review.

The following exactly matches my experiment with the cuboid and vtc mini. I don't understand why series and parallel don't perform the same but...
Battery School | Batteriesnorthwest.com | What is the difference between series battery connections and parallel battery connections and how do they increase battery capacity and voltage?
"In the SERIES CONNECTION, batteries of like voltage and Amp-Hr capacity are connected to increase the Voltage of the battery bank. The positive terminal of the first battery is connected to the negative terminal of the second battery and so on, until the desired voltage is reached. The final Voltage is the sum of all the battery voltages added together while the final Amp-Hr, Cranking Performance and Reserve Capacity remain unchanged."

" In PARALLEL CONNECTION, batteries of like voltages and capacities are connected to increase the capacity of the battery bank. The positive terminals of all batteries are connected together, or to a common conductor, and all negative terminals are connected in the same manner. The final voltage remains unchanged while the capacity of the bank is the sum of the capacities of the individual batteries of this connection. Amp-Hrs, Cranking Performance and Reserve Capacity increases while Voltage does not."

What type of RTA is that? Smok makes a good RTA now? Is that the TFV8 Beast or whatever? Your wick looks exactly like what I use(Rayon) I don't have any Clapton wire though I just use 24G kanthal on Aromamizer V1s and I can only go to about 60 watts. Was considering something called alien wire which is kanthal Clapton's.(they sell on fast tech)

thode are two different pics..Smok TFV8 with T8 coil..
and the Sense RTA-2 with the dual clapton build and cotton bacon wicks being built atop my old IPV4

Oh well cotton bacon looks alot like Rayon to me. The Sense RTA 2 I haven't heard of but maybe look into that. Always on the lookout for big build decks.

Sucks Evolv is no longer making releaux mods guess need to wait and see what else is out there featuring the dna250 chip.

Wouldn't be opposed to this rx300 though. I have no mods with joy tech chips so I wouldn't know.
