    I like it! I probably would sandpaper all the paint off if it were mine, but it looks cool, and nice connector too.

    This is my main unit. Although i've abandoned the 901/4075s for 510 atomizers now. They work great, and don't deposit liquid in my mouth like 901s do.

    P.S. add a rectifier diode like IN4004 or IN4007 to drop the voltage a bit. it's less shocking to atomizers without sacrificing too much power. I'm going on 5 weeks with the same 2 510 atomizers.

    Cheese graters could also be marketed and sold as sponge ruiners. Think about it.

    That's really nice too! Do you have much solder in there?

    Thank you Carlos, trust me, i have made so many in this last 2 months that i am still not sure when i will finish taking pics and posting them on here. Since i started using my RCA system, i have adapted almost every single elctric device in the house to a power supply for my vaping craziness!! Even my wife's night table clock (she has one , I don't since she is the rich one) has a jack i can hook up to when i don't want to carry boxes for power.
    Now i am thinking on adding jacks to the table lamps also LOL.

    Any problems, or are you supporting them as you do it?

    They have taken a good beating so far (2 months) and still as good as when i first made them, don't attribute it to me but to the design of the plug itself (male and female) , that is one of the many reasons why i chose RCA. I must add that anyways i try to be gentle to every part as you would with a regular e-cigarette battery or any electric/electronic device for that matter.

    a bit. Have to solder about 6 different points on this one, I'm a former small appliance technician so soldering is no problemo.

    and I stole the Weller soldering iron from work after I was let go.

    WOW, very nice fit, great work by youfillintheblank.

    Not really Sharon, it is more superglue and glue gun than soldering.
    The battery holders are glued to each other which makes them a tight fit inside the box.
    The RCA jack is super glued to the battery holders and it holds rock solid.

    FYI my batteries are bigger than those, you would not be able to fit mine in the 2 X AA box.
    mine are 16320 and youfillintheblank's are 15270.

    Sharon, if you are patient, i will sure do it for you as soon as i have a brake (not sure when), but hopefully by this time next week.

    And yes, you can learn how to solder easily, it is not such a big deal as long as you know the very few basics. Just check the sticky on how to solder here in the mod section, it is really good.

    Grabbed some of those monemtary switches from an old VCR that was broken. There were 12 Micro switches in there! Great fro USB pass throughs. Thanks for the list of parts!

    Very cool Warp!

    You too, You!

    I had thought I had an original idea to use an Altoids gum tin a couple of weeks ago. Guess you guys beat me to it.
