FOR high voltage fans 6V IN A BOX! made simple

[warp1900]

Ya know what? Ultrafire makes 3.7 volt CR2 size batteries too. Another one to add to the list and confuse people!

OMG

That was probably the single most confusing subject for me when i got into this, and i didn't even remember the twist you just mentioned.

Would it be so hard to just call them different numbers or names?, no, but most likely it is some feud going on with camera manufacturers!

On a second thought, i think you are referring to the 1/2 AA on the table ?, 14250 like the one used on lady pipes?

heheheh...check the link, now these are listed as 15266, not 270, but it's still a CR2. That guy Cisco modded some sort of small shiny cylindrical lighter into a usable e-cig and he used a 3.6v Cr2.

My Christmas wish is for a 3.0v 14250 battery with button top so I can make my magnum box mods and not have to chop up so much plastic in the box and make a mess like i do with 3.0v CR2s

That is what I am using at this very moment. You guys are so smart and this is just so confusing I will just have to wait for you to give me instructions. I am just addicted to 6V. Nothing else will work for me now. If I was younger I might be able to figure more of this out on my own. Keep up the good work.

You sure do like your Altoids Warp, guess we know what to get you for Christmas!

Nice job. Looks like you're using the tin itself as the ground. How did you insulate the positive end, I can't see it.

I used one of those SparkFun switches in my third mod. It worked great... for about a day and a half. Now I have to figure out how to remove it from my battery box. Sure wish I'd used a hot glue gun instead of the Crazy Glue. Live and learn.

Thank you Smokin,

To isolate it i put a blob of epoxy putty and a small piece of metal on top.

I'm doing a series of bubblegum/candy mods, still other 3-4 more to come :P

I don't even like candy ....gimme cake!

Strange it didn't work for you, i have not had one die on me so far.

6 volts absolutely blows my nards off, I love it! but I got some voltage regulators from Texas instruments that step any voltage above 5.5v down to an even 5, and that is much more reasonable, it appears that I get more vapour too, not sure why that would be but that's what my eyes tell me. I'm never putting these things down, I don't care if I have to vape glycerine hand soap!

ok I got a stupid question- I bought some cr2 3.0 volt batteries and a charger. I have to use some magnet to charge them in the charger cause they are a little short.

Now will the CR123 3,0 volt batteries fit in my charger without the magnets?

And/ Or will will cr2 batteries fit in that battery holder from Battery Holder: CR123A Battery Holder for PCB mount - RoHS Compliant - BCR123A here?

Or where can I find a battery holder like that? that will hold my cr2's?

ok
I think I figured it out I wanted these http://cgi.ebay.com/2x-Ultrafire-3-0...d=p3286.c0.m14
they fit in my charger - http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...=STRK:MEWNX:IT I got with some wierd camera batteries I got that have no- plastic holder available?
So I need this http://www.batteryspace.com/index.as...S&Category=881

thanks in advance Robert

youfillintheblank did a 6v box mod a few months ago in one of the X2 AA battery boxes from Radio Shack. The Altoids version looks great, though.

I have two box mods running at 6V. One uses AA and the other AAA.
The AAA is my favorite as it is compact.. Not sure about the battery life yet (only completed it just yesterday). At 6V I can finally put this b***h down for extended periods. The vapor is outrageous compared to the regular batteries!

I would post pictures but they aren't that fancy (see one you've seen them all)
