Modding - parts

[Katuchi_vapes]

Hello all, im fairly new to building my own box mods but am fairly familiar with low voltage. Now that we have that im no expert out of the way lol lets get started.
So i have built a dual 18650 series box mod (plain jane as it can get) and because of my lack of knowgled on mosfets when buying the parts i had just went for a large 120ac 20amp rated toggle momentary switch. Needles to say i dont enjoy a huge switch. So i was looking for a little insight on cool switches, good mosfets and decent sleighs. Depending on how this turns out i may end up doing a how to and a video tutorial of the build.

Does this help?

Good post, but i am looking for a dual series. And i was reading something about microfets? Maybe would be cool to to see what the internet can dig up on that xD

I have found this how to pretty helpfull when i was noobin

the mosfet is the "switch" that carries the load... what you are looking for is a small button switch to turn on the mosfet... 5V 1A should be more than enuf...

Yes, again good info but im at the stage of looking for specific parts now. Mainly a cool switch. Or microfets.

Welcome and glad you joined. Could try rephrasing question.

You can use most any 'cool' switch you want when you offload the heavy lifting to a suitable MOSFET - that's the idea of using MOSFETs, so you don't have to use big, honking ugly high-rated switches.

What's a 'microFET'? If it refers to it's physical size, then that doesn't make much sense, as suitable MOSFETs are plenty small enough to fit into enclosures along with suitable sized cells.

I get the impression that you're trying to run before you've learned to walk, or even crawl - if I were you, I would first get used to building mods from known working existing designs before going off on your own and trying unknown exotic components.

Yeah i understand that im still a noob at building. Like i understand the designs and how to properly wire it all up. Even tho ive only built two mods lol im just looking for newer (2017) hardware that is good build quality really.

And for the microfets. I have only heard of them (google didnt help much) i know there is a mosfet board style that is slimer someone had posted in a thread on here but I am trying to save as much room in the device cause i have plans to fit something special inside the boxs housing
