DNA20D Stealth Mod

[mamu]

Many thanks to breaktru and retird for showing their mods using this 9v batt box and giving me the inspiration to tackle the build.

I can't believe I got all the circuitry and batt to fit in this teeny tiny box. I was able to squeeze in (just barely lol) a 1200mAh 25C li-poly batt. I had to do some... ummm... creative modding to get everything to fit.

With Lexi and Max I used a piece of polycarbonate that I adhered to the display so that it gave the display a bit of height to fit into the cutout which made it flush with the front of the case, but with this mod I simply seated the display just using the thin black transparent plastic piece that the display comes with so it seats a bit recessed with the front of the case. The cutout I used is the same size as the transparent plastic piece.

I also gave the case a light sanding.

This is the smallest regulated mod I've made... totally teeny tiny

I drilled a 1/16" hole next to the micro-USB charging board to let the light from the LED to come through when charging...

My template for cutting holes...

All parts epoxied in...

All wiring done...

omg... the batt fits!!

And the back cover slides on aok - woohoo!!

Size comparison with Merlin...

Stealth mod, Delsy, Milo, Lexi, Max...

My Bliss with drip tip is taller than the stealth mod...

BEAUTIFUL................!!!!!!!!! and I like the tiny hole for the led to illuminate better.....I'm gonna steal (borrow) your idea LOL....

Wish I had one of those templates.......I'm sure it saves alot of time not having to measure, measure, measure....

Sexier than ever mamu, make me want.

The hole was a last minute to do cuz the LED light was barely peeking through the USB cutout. Without that hole I would need my specs when charging to see the LED light.

The template sheets I use is Quilter's Template Plastic. I buy it at JoAnn's - it is gridded for 1/8". Perfect for accuracy for quilting and modding.

hum, my wifey used to do quilting....she didn't have a template plastic like this..I'll track some down....thx

Nicely done Mamu.. Bravo and welcome to the mini club.

Suggestion for the hole for the USB LED. I use a transparent length of monofiliment line (weedwacker) thru the hole and over the LED. I think it's .80 ga. It acts like a fiber optic. The LED is transfered easily through the monofiliment and the LED is bright.

I've got a few tactile switch buttons that are clear plastic...gonna try them for the usb led.

That is gorgeous, I love what some of you have done with these mods. One day I hope to make a nice box like some of the ones I have seen, really like the smaller ones. You people amaze me, great work.

You want the monofiliment to sit over the LED so it transfers the light up thru the hole.

 

[junkman]

That is awesome

 

[bapgood]

Dang mamu you don't eff around....next time when you say your thinking about doing something ill set on the edge of my chair.

You make it look to easy

 

[retird]

Thought so, my tac buttons are about 1/4" long, so I just cut to length to be over the led...

Wow that is sweet.. you have mad talent Mamu

Breaktru why doesn't it surprise me that you use weed wacker string for an LED light pipe...its actually pretty brilliant.

I have worked with some light pipes and there are some OTS versions made to snap over led's that have 90* bends and etc. Clear acrylic rod or square stock with a 45 cut over the led to bounce the light 90* works good also.

 

[Mylt1]

any idea when the DNA20 will be back in stock or know of anyone else that sells them? the only thing that is in stock is the 12 and the charging board. i have a couple of ideas that i want to build and the DNA20 would be ideal.

Great idea breaktru! I'm sure hubby has some of that stuff - time to nose around in his shop.

It looks easy cuz you see just the pics. What you don't see is the @+#%$&, *$%^#$, and *%&@$#)%#&* I go through during the build.

 

[Airborn3]

Another awesome mod Mamu!

if a variable wattage device can be this small, why the heck are my choices on the open market supersized sex toys?
