    Just For LM2596 Users

    I have a few projects that are pretty close to being done. I couldnt pass up those modules for 1.75 a piece. If i went to digikey and just ordered one lm2596 adj chip the price is crazy. The whole module is less then half the price for just the chip. LM2596S-ADJ/NOPB National Semiconductor |...

    Just For LM2596 Users

    Wow finally got my order today took a month to get here which is about the longest i have had to wait on CCS ( CCS = Cheep China $%*&). Average time is usually right around two weeks. Shortest was when i ordered A HID headlight kit for my car it actually got here in 3 days from China Via DHL ...

    quick mosfet question

    I half way agree with you there. Too much resistance will slow down the de-saturation of the gate but it makes saturation quicker. Don't take my word for it, Do a real world test slap a mosfet with a switch on the gate to a breadboard wire you up some power . Slap a 100ohm resistor from gate to...

    quick mosfet question

    That Sony should boost it just fine. Data sheet says something about the control pin needs a dedicated line straight to the ground pin for regulator stability. Not sure if that has anything to do with it , about all i got off the top of my head. Are the caps electrolytic ?

    quick mosfet question

    What are you using to power it. Boost circuits require some pretty stout batteries. Also did you install caps for it. My ptn04050c module doesn't drop but a few 100ths of a volt powered by a Panasonic 18650

    quick mosfet question

    It is the other way around. You want to use the highest resistance you can that can still fully desaturize the gate when the switch is off. It is much easier to overcome 100k resistance then it is 10k or 1 k going to the opposite polarity . so the higher the resistance of the resistor going to...

    Micro-Controller Mod

    Going to be interesting to see what he says. Really in my opinion what he has now is better then the DNA/ darwin much more informative. The smart chip can be programmed to do wattage just like the darwin. Really what makes the darwin the darwin is the smart chip and the program written for it...

    Where can I source a higher spec version of the ego-t board?

    Ther ego-c twist is the only vv ego i know of. At least a true ego that is made by joytech. I dont know of any Knock off brands of the ego that have VV yet. But i am sure they are hard at work right now reverse engineering the twist as we speak. There is a booster module that gives ego's vv that...

    quick mosfet question

    The gate will stay charged once it is activated. you need to add a resistor from gate to source this will pull it back down when your not pressing the switch. something around a 100k or higher should work well as long as your not doing a touch switch.

    Easy OKR-T VV mod

    seen a lot of folks use this enclosure. You can also check out the evercool thread it is a Ti module that is almost the same it requires caps is about the only thing different. 18650 battery case 2 x parallel connection DIY case | eBay

    Easy OKR-T VV mod

    If you operating it off a batteries you dont need caps for this module. Only reason to add caps would be if you made the mod to where it could run off a AC adapter or simpley put, make it PT capable. AC adapters can put out a lot of noise so a cap should be used to filter it out. Batteries dont...

    Where can I source a higher spec version of the ego-t board?

    They might just offer them at some point. They are just too new right now. When the ego T's came out you couldnt get the guts of them right away it was quite a few months later when they started selling them. This circuit might not be the best option anyways I really dont see the twist holding...

    And we aren't just using these, why? It looks so easy.

    The specs on that board might not be so accurate. 20 watts would be 10 volts 2 amps. But if you dial it down to 5 volts 20 watts would be 4 amps. I would say the watts rating is more accurate because a amp rating really is no good without a voltage rating to go along with it. If you dialed it...

    Where can I source a higher spec version of the ego-t board?

    They sell the ego-t guts. here is a link 5x eGo-T electronics set - E-cigarette battery connectors Heaven Gifts so i would think they will get around to the ego-C twist at some point. They have the twists too but full battery with electronics http://www.heaven-gifts.com/product-488.html

    quick mosfet question

    Since your making a wood mod and it is non conductive you wont be using the case as a ground that pretty much opens you up to using either one. So it really depends on regulator and battery placement to which polarity would be easier to switch. If the regulator is placed closer to the positive...

    quick mosfet question

    Either one of those would work well with a single battery. One is a P channel and the other is a N channel so you can switch either polarity.Usually one works out better then other depending on the mods design.

    Where can I source a higher spec version of the ego-t board?

    Since it is pretty much brand new it might be a month or two before the guts are available for sale. heavens gifts would more then likely be one of the first to sell them. I would keep an eye on their site

    Where can I source a higher spec version of the ego-t board?

    If your goal is to vape @ 20 to 25 watts then it wont come close since the max output is 12 watts. For that price it should include a LED or Oled display, just my opinion.
