Less breakable Passthru?

**BJ43** · 02-10-2009, 05:59 PM

Had two go bad, switch and/or wire problems so I made a heavy duty model. One tire valve with all the rubber cut off (threads are correct for 901), 2" model airplane fuel line inserted in the valve, 2 1/4" copper rod inserted in the fuel line for the positive contact, soldered heavy duty push switch to the valve, soldered heavy duty USB cable to positive and negative. Negative is the casing with the threads and switch. Wrapped it all with electric tape and wow I now have Screwdriver USB.

I've got a Puresmoker 901 passthru. I've snagged the wire around my desk so many times I'm shocked it hasn't been pulled completely out of the battery part and i've dropped it on my hardwood floor atleast a hundred times.

4 weeks of abuse and it's still rockin' like day 1. Although I can hear a little metal moving around when I take carts out and tap it.

Would love to see some photos of this or possibly a "how to" vid!
