So for shiggles and solder practice i had some spare stuff laying around. And i birthed this out, then painted it lol.

The aluminum lid with electrical tape on back side fits in SNUG which is good cause i lost the plastic lid and screws it came with, also the 510 got epoxied slightly crooked :facepalm: lol.

The batteries weren't paired since birth but both seen very little use from two defective vision spinner 1300mah (stripped inner 510 threads) i charged them externally first to same level. I know still a no-no...
Everything else came from ego-c-twist 1300 (except the pot knob)
Was out of push buttons and didn't want to use a tactile, so i went with this 6v/3a rocker switch i salvaged from something awhile ago...

Led doesn't work, tried soldering to on board led, something went wrong when i fired it it would stay on after pushing switch until the 8sec cutoff.... So i desoldered it and tried wiring it to my rocker switch but could get it to work any which way tried, so as a hailmary cause i just wanted to finish this thing. I wired positive to 510+, ground to bat- (no resistor on hand) worked for a good 8-9 tokes..
can anyone suggest what type led and resistor to use wired this way?
*edit* also would this parallel setup double the 2ish amp limit or is that board controlled? Not like it will be pushing too much 1.6-1.8ohm rebuilt aerotank heads.. Just curious (well crap now i want to get out my multimeter and a dripper and test with variety of builds and check voltage/amp output. And see if the board gets hot...*
*3rd edit* my dang auto correct and word prediction are on drugs tonight....***
