Bad day, freaking bad day.

[Domtine]

Today gotta be the unluckiest day of my life. First my EGO broke, then I fried my battery when salvaging it by turning it into a box mod.

Anyone knows what time the Changi Village flashlight shop closes?

And I gotta smoke stale analogues until I work around this.

...


Finally, after searching high and low for the 14500 batteries, my box mod is completed. Real simple design.

The guts of my mod. The connector was salvaged from my broken EGO and I epoxy putty it to the 2xAA box from Sim Lim TWR

Manual button for vaping and a master on/off switch that came with the box.

This is still a prototype as I have problems getting the batteries to last as I'm using 3ohm atty. But at least this solves my problem of not able to vape.

Inspiration is from Madvapes http://www.madvapes.com/510-Box-Mod-Kit_p_2608.html

Next project, 5V box mod

Theres 1 place u might try. Its Funan IT Mall. The Challenger there operates 24hr =) its at level6 i believe.

Good luck~

 

[Domtine]

Challenger got sell 14500 and charger meh?

 

[Muramasa]

Not entirely sure but the challenger there is huge. u can try ur luck. while u're there, they have lots of cases and pouches that u might find useful to keep mods lol.

 

[Domtine]

LOL gonna be tough dude.. Sim lim twr don't even have rechargeable lithiums. The shop that sells .... loads of batteries only have gadget specific type.

 

[Muramasa]

hmm.... then i have no idea liao. =(

 

[samo50sg]

Mustafar? Never seen it but seems like they sell everything!

 

[RCXD]

Karl, try black-tactical at funan. It's a tactical shop. They've got 14500 trustfires there and charger.

 

[cigarbabe]

If you want to pay for shipping I'll send you two ego batteries not new but in good working order or I could send you 2 Trustfire batteries.
Your choice of either.
I have no idea how long it would take to get these from the US though.
I rather suspect you'd be better off trying to find some in Singapore.

Go down to the basement of sim lim tower, they have UF batteries there, for better batteries go for the iw at FSTOP lights shop, they are online, google for it.

Yeah, I was there yesterday, they don't have 14500. However they do supply gadget specific lithiums

Good Luck Karl!

im kinda in the same situation, 10 days still processing and my ego's are not holding charges very well anymore. seems like the voltage is dropping a ton and its making it so hard to keep myself away from analogs due to losing TH to where there bassically isnt any after about 20-30 mins after the battery is off the charger.

Time for a lavatube upgrade

i like lavatubes price range, and the Variable Voltage idea, but the lava tube does not keep the voltage you set and that upset me so i went for the "holy grail" of VV PV's since i had just enough for it. just hope it ships soon

 

[dayn]

what is the "holy grail" of VV PV's

What do u mean by it doesn't keep the voltage you set? I'm using one and honestly have no problems with it.
