The PVMA no more worries for batt connectors!

Thanks for the idea. Just made one with a 4xAAA box & RCA plugs. The only bad battery I had was a Health e-Cigarette, but it works. Right now using 3 regular batteries in series, getting 4.7v. Have ordered some rechargeable 1.2v for this box (to give me 3.6v) & some 3.7v (protected) for a couple of more. This is fun, except when I picked up the soldering iron from the wrong end Dam that hurt.

You don't have to take your screen name THAT seriously!!!

Thank you very much for this idea. I finished my first mod today and it uses this method (as will anything else I build). I just wanted to say thanks and post pics to show off your idea at work.

Below is a copy of what I posted at VF (pasting instead of linking because I dont know how a link would be taken here):]

I'm so glad this helped even if just a little, you did a great job and i am sure you will enjoy it for long time.
Thanx for sharing with us.


Some plug in add-ons you might be interested in.
No extra work involved, just buy the adapters and you are ready to go!

Since now you have the RCA adapter made.. here is my suggestion for your next mod (i know there will be many more )

OUCH! hope that burn...ie heals fast

How about posting some pics Burnie?, (the mod, not the accident lol), would love to see the results.

Thanx

Simplicity at its finest, nice selection, what time should I come over...


Awesome idea Warp


Cisco...

I really appreciate it Cisco, and coming from you...

You are one of my favorite modders in the forum, always clean and very thought-full work.

Let me see if I can do a better battery RCA connector. The box looks OK but the atty connector sucks, had to glue it with gorilla glue. I'm not sure how everyone attaches the piece from the battery to the RCA plug, everything else was easy.

This was copied form a different thread but is related to the PVMA , so i pasted it here.



Pick your switch, this is what will be inside your box. In my setup i used a 2 x AAA battery box.







Cut the cover(shell) of the RCA plug to the size you need. look at the end for more.



Just brake the long connector in the RCA, you don't need it since it is metal and that will be the ground.






NO Soldering, no cables for the adapter, just glue the battery adapter to the cut RCA jack shell.
You have to figure out how much to cut so the center RCA pole will make contact with the center of the connector.


Hope it helps

Here are some of the options you have with the RS wall wart:

1- this is my own setup, you would have to build your pass-through and atty adapters for this one.



2- faster to make with your actual setup, you only need to add an USB connector to the wall wart, and a regular pass-through with this adapter to be able to connect.





3- one more would be to cut off the USB plug on your pass-through and the connector on the wall wart, and solder one rca jack and one plug.





4- the fastest/easiest would be to cut off the USB plug on your pass-through and the connector on the wall wart, and attach one to the other, but then your pass-through will be limited to use only with that wall wart.

I wish I was as mechanically inclined; however, it would also mean I'd have to have enough sight remaining to see what I was doing if I could mod like that but... that's life I guess. Kudos to all of you for making modifications so that various parts work with other various parts without the need of hunting down the exactly part that goes with one particular e-cig.

You certainly have my praise and my admiration.
