Well, I finally got around to finishing a project that has been laying around for a few weeks. These tins are just the right length for stacked 16340s, so I gave it a try. I used a squared off piece of PVC to mount the switches and protect the components. The circuit board with a 5v regulator gets covered with electrical tape after the photo.

Thanks to Connman for the Eclipse tin idea and, though I didn't realize it until just now, the 5v regulator diagram on madvapes site as well.

Real nice looking eclipse mints tin mod cyberwolf. :w00t:
Like the way you used that PVC pipe and have a off/on switch for the main power.. That is a must have with the 4 or 5 pin regulators.
One sweet clean mod. I was thinking of using the 2 16340s in one myself a while back till I got flooded with all these other mod ideas. Think now they are going into a Jumbo Push Pop for that 5 volt satisfaction. Or maybe a eclipse mints tin as you have done there. Or maybe one I haven`t come up with yet. :unsure:

I also need to toss a Thanks out there to EzDuzit for that is where I came up with my diagram in his postings Here Just made it easier for me to undersatnd.. :toast:
