Ok, I started the build on my DIY Hana box and here are some notes:
20ga wire used for battery and 510 connections
22ga wire used for button
Evolv
dna 30
FDV V3 with 22mm locking base. (issues here, but resolved by FDV)
USB chip also from Evolv (Still debating whether I even want to put it in this unit or not).
Throw aways: All wires, buttons, 510 provided with the kit. I did not want a hana/chana/bana clone! Just wanted the box as a base to build my first
mod with little work.
While you can't really see it in this pic, when I drilled out the holes for the buttons I drilled straight through the center divider to give me room to swing the buttons into place once I wired/shrink tubed them.
With battery inserted I was able to test some of the DNA functions which work I'm glad to say.
Drilled and tapped top for FDV V3 510 using M10x1.5 only to find out after the fact the the 510 I received from FDV was part of a defective run and the threading was wrong. I contacted Dennis at FDV and he is sending me a good one that matches the threading (m10x1.5). Note he informed me that all future threading on the 510 with be M10x1.0
I'll post more pics when I'm ready to mount the LCD and receive my replacement 510 from FDV.
Just a note: while I could have bought a fully built clone I like to tinker and work with my hands so this was more about the project and building something than it was about getting a Hana/Nana/Cana clone.
