    The life of a vapoholic

    I'm not waiting by the window yet, cuz this stuff won't show till weds... but I have 30 new cartos coming, 4-18650 big box batts coming, 250ml of 60mg unflavored (doomsday supply), and various other electronics components/liquids en route or almost en route. I might go back to smoking... it was...

    Do you like the LED on Battery?

    I like that rework station, my station's just an old Weller that a friend gave me 15 years ago when he bought a rework. Maybe when I get a job I'll pick up a 2702. That thing looks nice, and I've got some mod projects in mind that will be using small smt. I've never worked with chips that are...

    new super capacitors

    I saw your vid a week or so ago Wagex, thought it was pretty funny. I think you should take it with you everywhere you go, should be some interesting looks!

    new super capacitors

    LOL! Dewalt drills are too expensive to be tearing apart for a mod. I think if I had your money, I'd burn mine :)

    new super capacitors

    Actually, I think an 18650 stores more juice than the old cordless drills do. But I really do like the idea of a 90 second charge time. I only vape about 1 carto per day, so 600mah gets me through a day. The only question is can you cut the packaging down to a reasonable size...

    new super capacitors

    I figure drain it, disassemble it, and see how small the power supply can be made. Try to keep it round at the bottom so you can use their charger. If it'll turn 27 screws into wood, that's gotta draw more power than one of our atty's. Only way to find out is with a screwdriver and a...

    new super capacitors

    Hrm... has anyone tried modding one of these? They're $40 on ebay. Might be worth a shot. Trying to find the dimensions of it.

    new super capacitors

    Since the article was from 2004, I'd bet these are already imbedded in many li-ion packs. You can google the article name and get access without entering any personal info.

    Do you like the LED on Battery?

    Usually when I get the desire to build something, it's on a Sunday, around 3pm. I generally know that I'm not going to have the motivation to do anything about it later. So, I go to RS and pick up what I can to make what I need/want. If I end up liking it, then I'll place a Digikey order for...

    Whats your new years resolution?

    Spend less time watching CNN, FoxNews, CNBC and surfing web forums :D Edit: So far... not doing so well!

    Do you like the LED on Battery?

    I figured someone would've measured it, and I had a sneaking suspicion it was gonna be you :) Thanks for the exact number. I've been playing around with a mod or three the last few days, and noticed that RadioShack carries very little in the way of low mcd output led's anymore. Smallest I...

    Do you like the LED on Battery?

    I agree with getting rid of the LED, except a small 1mm on top to show that it's functioning. Then again, that's a huge design change on something as small as this. As far as the draw of the LED, it's likely right around 20 ma based on the brightness, therefore relatively insignificant.

    best 5v mini usb pass through

    I revisited the digipower this afternoon. I cut the big protected flat cell out, and soldered the stock battery back in. Same symptoms. LED flashes quickly, then the circuit shuts down. Seems my cartos are drawing too much juice for the circuit, and it's tripping protection. Strange that it...

    OK, What's Up? Server Issues?

    There's been a V4L counter there since I had enough posts to have one, although the issue is likely on the member's server who hosts the counter, not the ECF server.
