Building a "hana" style mod with the fasttech enclosure: looking for tips, tricks, and suggestions

[tchavei]

Did you ever get your mini?

No

Waiting for sing post to declare it lost so ft sends a new one. I considered ordering one right away but what if the lost one "appears" later? No point having two I think...

I never lost a package in the last 12 years and I did over 600 orders during that time...

Hmmm... I don't have a C: drive... but I have a / and a /home

That's OK, I know you meant http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...-mech-homebuilt-mods-only-6.html#post14902399

Real men use /root as home... /home is for pussies

Wow, that really sucks. I found SingPost gets delivered much faster than ChinaPost. Hope you get it resolved soon. If it makes you feel any better, I'm not too impressed with the mini. It's an overpriced box waiting for a real chip.

Still funny

So I made the world's ugliest fake hana . I put the fd 510 and dna40 inside along with magnets for the door. I half-assed the board in there so I could take it out easy..
Working great.

@Othatguy
What size is the magnet you used for the door?

Finally it "landed" in Lisbon... Check the dates on expedition and arrival.

Now it either will slip through customs and I'll get it next week or it will be inspected and I'll get it in a month with added fees. Wish me luck.

<Googles Lexan>

Think bullet proof

On a side note. I skimmed through the thread, maybe I missed it, but is there a better way to slap the buttons in this box other than glue/epoxy?

Good thing you ordered the one in stock rather than the ones that were delayed (7 days and then another 5 days for mine).

Lexan is strong but hardly bullet proof. Unless it's a few inches thick.

I think everyone is using hot glue or epoxy to hold the buttons in place.

I just got an e-mail from Hyperion Vape. The authentic Hana Mini is now $150. So Hana's pricing is $250 for all DNA40 powered mods and $150 for all DNA30 powered mods. I still think they're overpriced but if the Hana Mini drops to $100, I might pick one up.

What I have done, and it works great is: use thin double sided sticky foam tape. I use a leather hole punch the size of the Tack Switch 3/16. Just clean the surfaces well with alcohol before setting in place.

pretty site it's used in that application (in thickness)

Anyway, Thanks for the info

yeah... there is a particular brand/thickness that I read was used in military combat choppers... i don't remember the specs though or anything to provide a source.

The magnets are 1/8in diameter

Real men use sudo sparingly.

On topic...in my CANA I used hot melt on one and JB weld putty on another. The cheap tactile switches have way to much activation pressure to use tape or foam, at least the ones I had. CA should work as well.

I don't open mine up to look at it very often, so as long as what is on the inside works, more power to you. I left my wires long and my chip accessible because I knew the enclosure was temporary.

 

[OthatGuy]

That's s good way to think about it, I did the same thing for the same reason. I really do like the dna40 tho, the only other one I have is in a bottom feeder and this one I've been running all my non bf atties in and in really liking it.

Real men don't use sudo at all as they log in as root to begin with

Guys I have a elev8 cloupour 30 watts mod and used it once. I'm not sure what to do with it. Maybe it can go for 30 usd or so. I cannot be bothered to change the chip as I have a fasttech enclosure ready.
