    Disappointment with the EverCool!

    That's interesting, I get 0.59v output, not 0.0v. Right now, I have removed the POT and have an extra 220 ohm resistor in its place for a total of 440 ohms on pin 5. I know I have good contacts between pin 5 and 3, but maybe whatever inside the chip that controls pin 5 is broken.

    Disappointment with the EverCool!

    That's a good point, but how the heck do I edit a thread title? I tried using the edit function, but it didn't change the the actual thread title.

    Disappointment with the EverCool!

    Well, it was bound to happen eventually. I was working hard all night last night on making another evercool variable. Finally got the last solder done at 10 PM. I pop in two batteries, flip the switch to on, get one LED, but when I hit the button, I get nothing, no LED, no vapor, just...

    EverCool Variable Voltage Mod

    I found a hacksaw with a fine tooth blade works great. I notched the board where I wanted to cut, then braced it against my countertop and sawed away. Probably not the easiest way, but it's what I had.

    EverCool Variable Voltage Mod

    http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/battery-mods/114901-evercool-variable-voltage-mod-4.html - Post #40 This was my shopping list for my box. I ended up buying a 3A switch at Radioshack instead of the little tactile switches from madvapes. You'll have to go to digikey to look up the part...

    EverCool Variable Voltage Mod

    BigBlue, do you know the current draw on the inhibit pin?

    what is inside cartos?

    Just pull the filler out of the carto, and then use it to drip. I've been doing this for months, and I love it. You can put like 10-15 drops of liquid into a filler-removed carto and vape forever without re-dripping. The "sock" around the coil holds the liquid, and any excess sits in the...

    EverCool Variable Voltage Mod

    My next box is going to have a NC switch in it because I can use a whole lot smaller switch. I hate having to use these huge 3A switches on my boxes. I think you meant pin 1 of the chip, not pin 5. Pin 5 is the voltage adjust pin, and pin 1 is the inhibit control pin. I'll just make sure I...

    My very own EverCool Variable!

    That could very well be what happened because after flipping the switch multiple times, it started to work again. The thumb wheel is less than one full turn, 240 degrees I think.

    My very own EverCool Variable!

    I thought I had lost my evercool on Sunday. I leaked a large amount of liquid out onto the top of the box. Next thing I know, my power light went out and would not come back on no matter what. I waited about 5 minutes and tried again, and luckily it started working again. I guess the liquid...

    Where can I sell my extra mods?

    Don't worry, I'm keeping spares. Plus it costs me less than $8 in parts to slap together a 3.7v box, and as long as TI will keep sending me samples, the variable boxes come in right under $20. Plus I've still got a few eGo's laying around if all else fails. Variable voltage is definitely...

    Where can I sell my extra mods?

    All of my extra box mods have been spoken for at this time. I'll post another reply if something changes.

    My very own EverCool Variable!

    Thanks for the link, unfortunately I've already placed my order with digikey. Those switches do sound good, but they don't really look any smaller than the radio shack switches I've been using. That rating is for full load, so I'm sure it's really much more than 1,000,000 cycles. Maybe if one...

    Considering a 12 Volt Mod.

    All I can say is Woah!

    Where can I sell my extra mods?

    That sounds pretty good to me. I want to get the rest of the boxes finished, then I'll get back with you on putting up the extras for trade only. It will probably be 4 3.7v boxes and one variable voltage box based off of BigBlue30's evercool design.

    Where can I sell my extra mods?

    Can I ask for a price in PIF? I just want to recoup the cost of the parts.

    My very own EverCool Variable!

    So I've got three more chips on the way, and I'm already planning on how to build them. I want to go to a tactile switch on the inhibit pin. They have a 200,000 cycle life, so I figure that's a pretty good number. Does anyone have any other suggestions for NC style switches. I'd really like...

    Where can I sell my extra mods?

    So, I've created a nice collection of 3.7v mods over the last few weeks, mainly for practicing soldering for variable voltage mods. Now I have like 5 or 6 3.7v boxes laying around that I would like to get rid of. I'm not looking to make a profit, just sell them at cost, plus $1 or so for...

    LR's, drip tips, and carto's.

    As far as drip tips go, I wouldn't say they "work" better than a pen grip, but they do look a little better, more like they belong there.

    is their a way to use a cartomizer with out any filling

    It isn't a quick process. You have to take your time and work it out little by little. I normally take a long pair of tweezers and scrape down the sides of the carto to loosen any glue that might be in there, then I pull at the filler lightly while wiggling back and forth. Sometimes I can get...
