I've put together a 5 volt "mod box" that uses rechargeable double AA's, just a basic battery box from radio shack for two bucks with a momentary switch rated for 2 amps molded into some empty space in the box with JB Weld painted black with Sharpie.
The battery connector, where the 510 atomizer screws in, was hack-sawed off a dead battery

Video's of it's use:
YouTube - 4*AA Mod Box 3 Second Hits
YouTube - HV PV 4*AA E-Cigarette
4*AA's (~5.5 volts)
$2 battery box
$4 switch
battery connector hack-sawed off a dead 510 battery
Joye 510 atomizer, 3.2 ohms, $7
this is what they call high voltage, and it really burns the flavor and tastes bad if I leave it on for more than a few seconds, but just letting it heat up for a sec then taking a quick two or three second hit, and releasing the trigger just before i stop drawing, produces an exhale volume similar to a cigarette, and taking it in is pretty close too. the vapor is much warmer than the mini-cigarette battery, but that was a respectable 3.82 volts - i could run a low resistance atty with that i guess, but it only lasts one or two vaping sessions.
this is just so much better than the $24 rig i bought, so much closer to a cigarette on what i guess they call throat hit, and i've even grown away from wanting the tobacco flavors, running out of my sample of mango, everything i liked about a cigarette without the parts i didn't like...i find i want to vape much longer than i want to smoke, so i guess i have to get lower potency stuff next time.
I had sized this atomizer to 4.5 volts, but it hits so much better at 5 volts.
