aluminum DNA 20 box

This is. indeed, one VERY nice-looking mod. Well done!!!

But it looks nothing like a bomb. Anyone who thinks this looks like a bomb probably also thinks that when you get shot with a .357 magnum, your body flies backwards 20 feet--educated from Hollywood...

I've seen a LOT of "investigative evidence" from actual bombs that have been found by LE in the field, and this mod looks NOTHING like any bomb that anyone has ever made that I know of--from the lowliest hippie leftist pipe bomb to the most sophisticated micro-mechanical device put together by an insane Harvard-educated math genius.

This mod is WAY too small, way too clean, and WAY too tightly-constructed to even resemble anything bomb-like, unless it was a bomb constructed by GE under a Federal Contract to the DOD or CIA...

Anyone who says this mod looks like a bomb should be smacked in the head, and then point at and laughed at hysterically, and then just pitied for being a delusional, uneducated, brainwashed sheeple who gets their reality handed to them through a screen...

IMR Mod Battery - 18650 - 18500 - 18350 | Texas Select Vapor has a 3500 mAh. Ive seen some others on the flashlight forums not too common though, they seem to make the larger cells in different chemistries(?). I saw a couple that run up to an equivalent to a D size. with the 1.5" (ID?) tube I think with a little work you could fit two 18650's in and fold the dna over them so the batteries and board could share the same space and have a mod thats fat but only the height of batteries and connector.

Stereo, that is one hell of a compliment. The good thing about the bomb assumption is that it's a good way to start conversations about vaping with tekies and gadget freaks. I helped a couple of folks get set up with starter kits because of conversations about my mod

What is the mAh on the 26650?

4000 to 5000 (though this board said the 5000 mAh is really 4500)

just a test run, made a window out of gorilla epoxy formed into the die cast aluminum. its full of bubbles and distorts quite a bit, so I'm on the hunt for a more optically friendly epoxy.

Hobby lobby has a clear product that you can use to incase objects in. I have no idea what it's called, but I think it's a liquid.

I think like this http://shop.hobbylobby.com/products/amazing-clear-cast-252742/

This is what I was thinking of http://shop.hobbylobby.com/products/clear-polyester-casting-resin-840462/

the only wall thickness indicated on hammonds spec draft is 2.5mm, but thats for the back wall I think the sides and door are a little thinner.

I tapped and countersunk holes next to the window to fill with epoxy and help anchor it on the aluminum and puddled it out about 3-4mm around the window on the inside.

I think that casting resin might be exactly what i was looking for
