Thanks Warp and many members in this modder forum for ideas and many good info s, suggestions, links...

Here are what I have learned and made for myself few mods: 3.7v, 4.8V and 5V PT using RCA adaptor with the switch.

Feel free to tell what do you think about these devices!

This is the 5V boost converter from TI , I added a diode on the output to low it to 4.81V ( still feel it is too much power for my 510). Any advices would be very appreciated, thanks in advance.

Nice. very shiny.. What did you use to make the tubes? anyhting off the shelf, or did you mill them up your self? Also how are the tiny switches in the rca adapter holding up for you, do they fail frequently?

That charger arrangement looks scarey sci-fi lab-ish!!!

And I LOVE the anything that'll fit the !@#$%^& batt will do one

The Tube was a Cigar Tube bought off Ebay about $10 shipped. It's about 1" diameter, 7" 1/2 long. I cutted in two to make that two mods no threaded on the tube, I had to make an Acrylic bottom cap with 2 venting tunnel on the side of the cap for safety and also 18650 protected batts.
I've been using those RCA with tactile switches (rated 50ma 12VDC) for about 1 1/2 month now (3ml a day vaping), no prolem or failing at all, has no voltage or current effect. The first RCA adaptor I made was with this switch SPST 1mS/5VDC Wired Detect Switch - RadioShack.com
(rated 5VDC 1A) but after tested with these Tactile switches , found that they work just the same, I like the Tactile more.

I've been searching for a really tiny slide or rotary - 3 positions switch to put in my 4.8V mod above so I can have 3.7v and 4.8V . Anybody find the switch please give me a link !
