120v vape

[Ray Rigney]

Hello I was a a local vape shop that I had not been to previously to this visit. I went to try out some juices and most other shops that I had been to had small egos with a protank on them. This shop was different they had a 120v box that had 4 lines coming out of it connected to 3D printed "mods", they were 3D printed pieces with a fire button and a 510. I was thinking of getting one for my house because I don't like to fire through my battery when I don't need to. This lead me to ask where they got it. I can not remember the store or online shop they said they got it from, but the price was around $700. That is not something that I wanted to throw $700 at. This gave me the idea to make my own. I don't know exactly how to go about buying the right parts or where to start really. I know hope to solder and know my way around electronics pretty well so I think that I could do this myself. If there are any ideas out there or help it would be much appreciated.

Thanks

You could make one with an OKL chip and a simple 12v supply.

seems they were using an isolation transformer which was rectified and smoothed with a serious sized cap.... 120V in but probably 4-6VDC out...

I threw together a power supply for vaping because I was really bored one night.... I used an old power supply from a computer...
the 5V output was rated for 350W

will only take ~4 meters of 28g to make a coil that will bring the wattage down to 200ish for 120V

When you used the computer power supply were you able to control the wattage and voltage to the wire? and If I wanted to have 4 or 5 wires coming out of it is that something that is possible with the computer power supply?
