Real nice and sleek this one, any pics of insides? Now I've got to go look closer at the other thread as it's been awhile.
Thank you guys. Couldn't have done it without the ECF members support and ideas.
asdaq, I would have to take it apart for photos. Had to cram the circuitry in to fit it into the smallest possible tube length. It's shorter than my Evercool V.V. tube by 1/4". Everything is hard wired. There are 5 sections and 4 are hardwired.

Yes Ruppy the tube is the hardest part. See Ta..Da... thread at: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/battery-mods/164713-ta-da-my-first-mods.html
Of course I had to modify it to make it as short as possible.

Nice work Break. I see you've added the sleeves to your coppers. I like the new look and have done the same on mine...I still have the VV copper on my to do list. Do I understand correct from the thread tiktle that this version is boosted? Very cool if so. Are you running a single 18650 on this one?
Yes Rockproof I used one 18650. I cut the pipe between the sleeves a little shorter.
This is what I used:
Copper V.V. Mod. Using One 18650, 3.7v. battery Incorporated the PTN04050C regulator and a DS-18689-100 Digital potentiometer.
Voltage in = 3.7v to 4.12v, Voltage out = 3.24v to >6V

Real nice tru, have you changed the locking system to scoring the inner pipe with the pipe cutter? I'm curious how effectively this secures it.
Hey Asdaq, I found that the scoring did not make a difference and the mesh up was not tight enough. What I did was ever so slightly deform (not noticeable) the coupler edge that fits over the pipe sections. All you have to do is give it a twist and it holds tight. Another option is to not file all of the burrs on the the cut edges of the pipe and leave a very slight lip.
I don't have a large battery spring like my other mods that would push the couplers apart. At first I measure for and used a magnet at the base of the battery but after a couple of days I found that using a weak copper spring which I crushed down to fit worked better. So far so good.
An important note Asdaq, Don't use those tiny digital meters to set voltages, It causes the D.P. chip to lockup. If I scale down to 3.24v it gets stuck there and have to power down. My multimeter works fine on it. So the draw back is putting the circuitry into a box mod with one of those digital meters.
Those meters aren't tiny enough for me, not in a tube anyhow. If one had it's own switch so that it was only used when not actively setting the voltage would it still cause problems?
The mod works fine with the meter except when adjusting the voltage. I also noticed a drain of about 0.2 volts without the load of the atty.
Tru, you don't expect us to believe ALL those rounds are going to fit in there, do you? 
I like that the pipe is segmented too, I would have thought it was a long single piece. Are there 2 pipe sections or 4 shorter ones?

Asdaq, The rounds are for bullet proof testing the .40 cal is deflected but .44 mag goes right thru. 
I used 4 short pieces of pipe and torched and soldered using just a drop of solder on one end of each pipe.
Like I mentioned in a post somewhere, the edges of the couplers are slightly out of round for better locking by just using a slight twist.

Nice, that gives more room inside and keeps the weight down. Brazing just adds to the fun. I've been trying some copper mixed with brass and silver solder as part of the accent. Not a full mod, but sort of an ego cone for genisis or possible air filter retainer.
