This is my beast of my Ecig mods . I call it the STR8TEK VV . It has almost everything you could ask for . 6A VV Stacked 18650 solid and good looking Bottom feeder . Im in LOVE with this one .

Features/Parts:

4"x2"x1" custom case painted and overlaid with Carbon fiber - Inside the case is reinforced with heavy duty copper clad which doubles as PCB's to make connections throughout the case . Its shorter than a provari (very slightly taller than a reo because of the drip well) , same thickness as the reo and 1/2" wider than a reo .
-TI PTR08100 6A VV chip with 2 100uf 16v tantalum smd caps (3.7-6v)
- Etched PCB for the 08100 componants
- PTC fuse
- Expensive 16.00 NKK LP01 illuminated custom Push button (optioned out!).This switch is no joke . By far the smoothest best feeling switch my fingers have ever touched . Well worth the money .Id pay double . Not even close to the feel of your ordanry switches which is what makes the high price .IMO the best switch on the planet.I know going overboard but well worth a paragraph of compliments
- Polished brass drip well with stainless feed post
- Phillips Lumiled 70 ma Red LEDs for bottle illumination
- Custom made cover that goes over the circuitry to give a finished look inside the case .
-Clip on front cover with squonk hole .
-2 18650 batts
-6ml bottle . The bottle fits so good it actually clips in so no flapping around when shaking it .

All in all this mod looks awesome and functions like no other . The button actually makes me giggle with pleasure every time i push it . I dont think it could have came out any better . No guys i wont sell this one so dont ask .I would trade it for a GGTS .I will keep this one forever i think . I may sell my Reo now though . Although its a plastic case this mod feels just as solid as the REO grand since its reinforced with copper clad . Its not much bigger than a Reo grand either and fits in my hand perfectly . The 18650's is also a nice upgrade from my Bugatti mod

VIdeo posted below of this wonderful button and mod . I went a little overboard with pics too . Sorry for all the enthusiasm lol . I just love this thing .

One think thats not in the pics is the tick marks for voltages around the pot. I made the tick after taking the pics so voltage changing is simple . Btw the camera throws off the LED color a bit .The LEDs are sharp red in real life .

As usual , leave some feedback . Happy to hear what you think :)

Sweet Str8.....very executive looking. I bet all the chicks will be wanting to give it a squonk!! ;)

Is that actual carbon fiber or the laminate you can buy? How is it to work with and bond to the case?

You can always add a DIP switch to control if you want the LED's on or off...or which ones on or off if you get the 2 or 3 pole switches.

lol Thanks . The Carbon is 3M 1080 Carbon Fiber Dinoc . Its a real looking adhesive backed carbon fiber vinyl . Its mostly used in the automotive world .Tough stuff . Yes i could always add dip switched for the LEDs (have plenty of em ). WOuld be a 2 min change . I work in LEDs for a living so its only right that i have some nice LEDs on my mods lol .

It mainly used for automotive . I work in automotive so i always have some laying around from interior wraps and doing hoods,roofs and trunks . It is super durable and does look like real carbon . As you can see in the video it has texture and colorshifting properties like real carbon .

Thanks guys . Iv been vaping on this for a few days and it by far blows away my reo in functionality and performance . For some reason it feeds better then my Reo too . I work in electronics and have used tons of different push switches in my time and nothing comes even remotly close to the quality and feel of this button . Its like butter . Its sooo soft but also really solid . I dont know how to explain it . It has resistance to the touch but when you press on it ,it like sucks itself down with no resistance . Most switches have a little play or movement but not this one . You cant like press it a little bit .Its either on or off .The concave also fits your finger perfectly . It is welllllll worth 16.00 .

Heres some info on the switch
Short Body Pushbutton Switches
Illuminated/Nonilluminated
Environmentally friendly components and packaging materials meet RoHS Directive restricting use of hazardous materials. Suited for lead-free soldering because of heat resistant resin materials.

Smooth, slightly concave surface of cap designed to fit fingertip. Unique design and construction of cap prevents its removal and limits tampering.

Bright LED illumination in choice of red, green, or amber through translucent white cap.

Short body of .551" (14.0mm) conserves behind-panel space.

Combination solder lug and .110" quick connect terminals are epoxy sealed to lock out flux, dust, solvents, and other contaminants.

Crisp actuation and clear circuit status provided by snap action contact mechanism. Arc barrier between movable contacts protects against crossover.
