    Anyone have any experience modding with the A20 LED?

    I dont know about the A20 but usually LED flashlights the LED part is held in by a threaded ring that you have to unscrew. Hope this helps.

    My First Pulse Width Modulator Mod

    Pretty much all the small trimmers have a mechanical operations of 200 cycles. Which is pretty bad. A 10 turn trimmer will only get you about 2000 rotations. Only thumbs that I have seen that are built to last are audio taper( Logarithmic) ones. One option is to look into IC trimmers. I think...

    Tired of manual switches? Simple Touch switch pass thru for under $15.00

    I put the ATMEL AT42QT1010 captive touch circuit on the back burner for now. There is some metal around where i want to put it so I went with just a regular touch switch with the Pchannel. If you take the first circuit posted in this thread and just switch the polarity of the wires it will work...

    Wanting to make a copper mod, need assistance!

    You can for sure go smaller. The madvapes reg is pretty big considering whats out there today. But the small stuff is not quite as easy to work is the reason they did it like that. The average DIY'er wants something fairly easy to solder. To give you an idea here is a board i designed off a...

    Wanting to make a copper mod, need assistance!

    Welcome to modding, Making something that works is not all that tough. But stuffing all that stuff you want in your mod to do into a small space is the challenge. Even the small switches that can handle the amps we require take up some valuable real estate. I will try to help you out as much as...

    Wire Glue vs Soldering

    Your going to be much better off learning how to solder. Get you a iron and some old junk electronics and go to town practicing on them. I would never trust connecting wires with glue.

    Wanting to make a copper mod, need assistance!

    Sure that will work. You need two in series to double the voltage then the regulator will let you adjust down to vaping perfection. Just one battery is only a nominal 3.7 volts. Most folks like to vape in the 4 volt range. There are some regulating modules that will boost the voltage not sure if...

    Wanting to make a copper mod, need assistance!

    Only problem I see , is that if your going to run VV the PV wont work running off one battery and/or if it did it would be in the 2.7 voltage range due to the regulators dropout voltage. Got to have 2 stacked batteries for the regulator work in the vapable range .

    Getting Started with modding (electronics)

    This is a bit on the advanced side , someone had mentioned it in another thread. But you can turn your PC into a Oscilloscope by using your sound card. Quite a few programs out there but this one i just stumbled on looks like the best. EDIT: IF you try this out be sure to use a voltage divider...
