See pictures. The "box" is a 4 AA battery holder with cover. It came with it's own on/off switch and wiring. Easy simple mod. The holder contains 4 AA NiMH batteries, I simply took a really poorly performing DSE901 atomizer, soldered the red lead to the centre post, the black to the outer ring where the screw threads are, and "assemble" it with a strip of duct tape. Taadaa!! It's easy to hold in my right hand and operate the switch, it's not a push button switch, but a slide switch. It's not much of a hassle, I just activate it with my thumb. Since I already had the batteries and soldering iron, this was a grand total of 5 bucks! And as imagined, nice clouds of nico-vapour!!! mmmm mmmm good!

Ah, it's easy to unsolder and do another one. I tried using the battery connector from a dead battery so I could just uncrew it, but I melted the grommet between the contacts and it shorts out. I've got my good and bad atomizers separated. Good ones for e-cig use, bad ones for my monstrosity.
IT'S ALLLLLLIIIIVVVVE!!

I saw that model after I made mine, I swear your honour!! They read my thoughts as I slept Next step will be....As soon as I have another dead battery, I'm gonna drill a hole in the housing of my battery holder, remove the excess wiring, and epoxy the battery connector right into it.
But the best part with this setup is, I can take the tape off and dunk the atomizer in water and switch it on, and boil out the gunk from the inside. I did that this morning and it did pick up a bit in performance.

Holy crap Barry!! Let's hope yours and mine never meet up somewhere. The whole neighbourhood will be praying that there's no children. God knows where we would send them to school.
Hey, youfillintheblank! Where did you buy that box? I am using exactly the same box for my USB modded pen-types here in Hungary. It is so cheap (about 80 cents here) that I thought it is made somewhere here in Hungary.
Anyway, my USB modded pen-types are the prettiest ones: there is no switch on them, just the USB cable, by which they can be connected either to an USB port or to that box containing four NiMH batteries
