You can get all the parts at mad vapes and the instructions are here
Batteries probably lasts a day. I not sure how 5v reg works but my VV box that uses 2 14500s last me a little more than a day. I recommend buying 4 batteries so you can keep vaping.

Sorry I meant to say 2AA box, the smaller the better!
Im still looking for plans!

That's what I rather suspected. The Big Brother is like this, but variable, or Boondongle has the pic in his avatar. Maybe he has plans he can share? View Profile: boondongle - E-Cigarette Forum
I would like to know what switch he used. It looks similar to some I got from Ratshack, but I think it would fry the switch. I vape pretty heavy at times and would hate to put all that work into something to use for only a few minutes.
I wonder if I could perform a miracle and get a reg with a control pin in a 2x AA box.

That means more wire , solder, and another resistor too, in an already cramped space. The screw on 510 connector might help things some.
That is 3AA and rather big in the build. I'd PM boondongle, I'm pretty sure he'd share.
I would imagine that is one. In the past many used that switch for 5V, Robert's Detonator did too. Folks claimed it held up, I'm pretty sure Boondongle said it held up. But that's not to say that the current switch being sold is the same build quality.
I pm'd boondongle and haven't gotten a reply yet. I really need this mod for my 10 hour work shifts!
I found a how to on a 5v 2AA box with CR2 batteries, so i think im going to take that route.
What e-cig are you using that doesn't make your 10 hour shift? and how long does it last you?
Compare the mah of your current vape to a pair of CR2 cells, and a linear regulator running at 5 volts.
Building a box mod is absolutely the way to go. Experience in mod making, vaping your own creation, etc.
Leaning a little as you go.
Best to ya,

3V CR2's are a poor choice for regulated mods, you don't have enough voltage voltage headroom for any decent sort of vape time.
JJ,
I don't know what the OP is vaping now, but I agree. But, you gotta start somewhere.
It's a shame folks can't get happy with a 3.7 volt mod

I have heard from several people that the vape time with this set up is great. I might run it unregulated at 6v, havent decided yet.
This is my first mod, so if it works out and I like 5v, then i'll either buy something or make something more impressive.

I have a 2xAA 5v mod using a PTN04050C booster.. just use 2 tantalum 100uf caps on the booster, run the output through a 3A horn switch to the atty connector, put the PTN04050C below the horn switch and use AW IMR14500 batts. Works sweet, up to 4h run time for me on each IMR14500 batt. Under a load its around 4.8v. I also installed a fire LED, and when the batts get low it'll start to flicker so you know when to change them out without damaging the IMR's, not to mention the booster will cut out before the IMR's get too low. Been running on it for over 6 months now and it works as good as the day I built it. I use SR Boge cartos on it (about 3.2 ohms).

^^^ sounds wayyy to complex for me right now..I have no idea what you are saying lol
I have pretty much the same setup and like it very much, but it won't last 10hrs, for me 6. Mustang, you have the same switch as the OP one, what are you missing for in the way of plans? This pic shows just about everything with placement and most of the wiring too:
