Hey guys,
So this is my 3rd mod and only second Box (first one was a magnum).
I realized that I loved the battery in the magnum/torch mods, but preferred the feel of the box mod in my hand. So I cut a hole and made some room for a 18500 battery.
The blue box was my first attempt. You'll see in the pics that the hole is a little big and my hand got a little wobbly in places. The black box in the pics is my newest attempt. Still waiting on a few parts to finish it up.
The hole in the blue box is 58mmx18mm at the widest points.
The hole in the black box is 55mmx16mm.
I ended up adding some solder to the positive contact due to an issue with the atomizer connector pushing on the battery and causing it to loose contact. In future versions I'll make sure the connector is further out of the way.
Once I get a pair of CR2's I'm going to look at a 6V version.
I named it the Ballast if anyone was wondering.
Lastly thanks to Welcome to MadVapes LLC for most of the parts.
