What Makes a DNA Mod Different?
Every high end vape mod in this collection uses an Evolv DNA chipset. Evolv is a US based company that makes some of the most accurate vape chips on the market. Their DNA boards give you wattage control, full temperature control with nickel, titanium and stainless steel wire, and a feature called Replay mode that locks in your best puff and repeats it.
The DNA250C handles up to 200W on dual batteries. The DNA80C sits in single battery SBS mods for pocket friendly power, and the DNA60C is the latest 60W board with a colour screen and the same accuracy as the bigger chips. You will also still see older DNA75C and DNA200 boards on some boutique builds. All connect to EScribe software on your computer for deep tuning of power curves, screen layouts, and battery profiles.

What Is an SBS Mod?
SBS stands for side-by-side. Instead of the battery sitting under the 510 like a traditional box mod, it sits next to it, which makes the mod shorter and flatter. That gives you a full 18650 or 21700 cell in a shape that drops into a pocket far more easily, which is why side-by-side mods have become the go-to format for single-battery DNA boards like the DNA60C and DNA80C. Most pair with a 21700 for the longest runtime in a slim body.
Boutique and Designer Vape Mods
What makes these mods high end is not just the chipset. They are made in small batches by boutique brands, machined from billet aluminium or hand-finished in brass, copper and stabilised wood, and most are serialised so you know exactly which unit you own. This is the luxury, collectible end of vaping, and they are among the most expensive mods on the market for good reason, given the materials and the work that goes into each one. Limited editions sell out and do not come back, so the line-up here rotates as new drops land. If you want a dependable everyday workhorse instead, the standard box mods range covers that, while this collection is for collectors and enthusiasts after something rarer.
