VT200 Enclosures now available.

I received a VT200 enclosure this morning, unlike the Hana enclosures these are actually manufactured by hcigar so the quality is as good as what you would get on a retail VT200.
It comes with a steel 510 connection which is very nicely gold plated, the positive atty wire is even pre-soldered with the correct gauge wire - it will literally take 10 minutes to get the board wired and fitted.

I'd really recommend buying one of these if you want to put together a DNA200 yourself or if you're looking to get a VT200 at a slightly lower price. - I'm very happy with it.

I think these have the potential to be the next "Hana" box for DIYers.

Cigreen seem to be the only vendor with them and fortunately for me,they're in the same country.
Ordered the enclosure yesterday and it arrived today, got a replacement V2 VT200 battery too.

Can that 510 screw out of the box to solder to the board?

Can that 510 screw out of the box to solder to the board?

No, but the positive (pre installed) is long enough to have the board slightly out of the enclosure when it's soldered, they recommend a solid piece of copper wire for the ground.
I intend to solder a pre shaped piece of heavy copper electrical wire to the board which I'll bridge in situ.

As far as I know these enclosures come in the same state as they are when the boards are installed by hcigar.
