okay, so i was looking at box mods today, and for me, they all fall a little short. not saying there aren't good ones out there, i just maybe haven't seen them. anyways, long story short, i was thinking about building one.
my dilemma: cant seem to find a suitable box, difficult because i don't exactly know what i want or how much space i'm going to need.
my request: information. first, where is a good place to get a plastic box or metal box (made by someone?) that would fit 2 18650 batteries with room for some wiring? i'm assuming searching out a random plastic box would work but im coming up short.
here's what i have so far, feel free to tell me i'm wrong, stupid, crazy, whatever! just feed me some info! i want to build a dual 18650 box mod. i have minimal (but some) electrical experience so what i was thinking was a mod that incorporated a switch on the inside that could switch the battery output to be in series or parallel. To accomplish this i need two batteries isolated with connections running to a series/parallel switch then out to the 510 connection. I found something that may work for that.... but unsure, it's literally called a series/parallel switch lol.
Next thing is i want to be able to sub-ohm on this bad boy, so I'm looking at all high-amp rated stuff. I'm assuming if my draw is at 10+ amps every component will have to hold up so i found a 30Amp rated marine electronics push switch. i also saw some ignition push switches that may work. next I'm thinking 12-10AWG wire to handle up to about 30 AMps.
So overall, the box will be mechanical, i think that goes without saying, but any advice on how to actually do it. I love the idea of switching between the hardest hitting thing on the block to the battery life of 2 18650's. Tell me where I went wrong, what i have right, please! OR if anything out there exists or one of you are willing to build it, let me know!
Putting the whole thing in metal would be epic but not necessary.

. I was devising a complex way to do it with other types of switches and it was right in front of me! Lol thank you friend.
