I vote for a sticky as well.
For anyone just reading this, there is a thread now to discuss this very thing.

Please go weigh in over there as well, so your input can be more easily found.
Where can I get DIY 901 connector.I have rest of the parts and body cut,but don't want to ruin new batt. but I will.Also any way to get switch more compatable with spring from factory switch.
All of my parts arrived yesterday! Been fighting with the M-401 (doing a M-401 instead of the DSE901) connector for soldering. After I gave up I realized a really simple way for me to solder it so going to do that here in the next day or so.
Dunno about the switch, but you can get a DIY 901 connector from Radio Shack for about $3-$3.50. It's called an N Coaxial DC Jack; there are two kinds, but the one you want will look more or less like a 901 connection.. Just keep in mind you'll have to run a solder jump from the ground terminal to the sleeve of the jack in order to have continuity to the atomizer . . . but that can be done easily with either a bit of solder, or a small piece of wire soldered in place.
Also note that the jack has a number of holes in it by design. Some people might like the easier draw this provides, but I personally didn't. I used one of these to build my USB passthrough, and I sealed all the holes (including the one at the end of the center pole connector on the bottom of the jack, don't forget that one) with some hot glue. It vapes well and it has a pull on it more or less identical to being hooked into a regular 901 battery.

Is this the jack?
Size N Coaxial DC Power Jack w/Switch - RadioShack.com
The very one. I've got it in my homebrew USB passthrough, and it works perfectly. Just seal up the switch holes and the bottom of the center pin, and as always don't screw your atomizer on overly tight, and Bob's your uncle.
Also want to make mention that I didn't discover this . . . many other talented and kind people on the modder's forum did. Go look at the sticky post in the Battery Modders forum for more details.

how gorgeous! off to HomeDepot!!!!
Can one still get these Romisens?
Here it was suggested that would be unavailable from now on (that was February); can't think why it would be in Romisen's interest
SD with the switch where I want it!
