Nice okay starting to make sense.
I am just a hole digger by tradebut I like to think of my self as a jack of all trades master of none
I just built one with no capacitors and works great.. and saves room

I've done that as well with the TI 8100. I'm not sure that is good practice. Some one might chime in regarding their purpose in our type application.
evercool variabile voltage is that VV made with an stepdown convertor ..the best ever for vapping.
i believe somewhere earlier in the thread someone spoke with a TI tech who explained that the caps were there (as they usually are) to provide for a cleaner voltage, but since there's no AC here, it isn't critical, but still recommended for the Vin side, whereas the Vout side can probably be ommitted sine its going straight to the coil, which shouldn't be too sensitive to minute voltage differences.
Is it possible to incorporate a 3 way power switch in this diagram where the 3rd position on the switch would be used to display battery voltage in the meter? I know it is possible I am just having trouble figuring where to put the 3rd wire.
so like this? excuse crude drawling defacing jimbalny's original but I am not an artist
actually since the meter is for 1-6 cells couldn't I just go straight to the next leg on the meter with the 3rd from the switch and have an accurate battery reading? maybe that is what you were trying to say in the first place

I have not found using the 3rd pin works. The difference in voltage is too great and the meter tries to read each then adds the two. The drawing shows how I do it in all my VV. It is basically a separate circuit for the meter and center position is off because I don't want the light on all the time
hey everyone!
im hoping someone can clear this up for me i just made my first successful evercool mod . Now heres where my problem is i made another mod exactly the same but i ran out of the style caps i used on the first one excuse my noob ways(the rounded yellow ones) and on the second mod i used black ones they say 100uf 10v so it should be the same?
can someone help explain this to me?
thank you

As long as they are 100uf 10v, electrolytic caps will work as well, GTItuner.
Where do you guys buy your electronic components? I need to buy some more tantalum caps and maybe try some thumbwheel pots. The only place I found that has both of those is digikey and their out of stock on a lot of stuff.... Jameco has a great price on caps, but they dont have the pot I'm looking for. Mouser is the same.
What a great thread, just finished reading the 108 pages, bookmarking what I thought would be important when I get ready to build one of my own and of course I must thank bigblue for starting it all.
There were a couple of questions about incorporating a charging circuit into the mod and I'm wondering if anyone has tried making a VV mod using either the 5V 1.5A Mobile Power Supply Travel Portable USB Battery Charger 18650 or the 5V 1A Output USB 18650 Battery Box Charger Portable Mobile Power Supplies listed on this page with the end result being a VV mod and a way to keep the batteries charged?

I got one thinking the same thing, but it's a monster. Hold 4 18650's in your hand then add an inch or so on the end - I didn't find it comfortable to carry. I mainly wanted it for a tank in the box. It would work though - I decided it would be better for backup power though.
It looked like the two battery unit would be more manageable. Think I'll get one of the four bat units to keep batteries fresh and possibly hook up a pass through to it. Wish I had the expertise to wire a 510 connector to it so I could flip a switch for vaping, flip it back for charging or a pass through supply.

Is there a step by step guild in this thread somewhere showing how to wire/solder everything up?
I have zero experience in electronics besides some basic soldering skills....the drawings and schematics all look like jibberish to me

So according to the calculator if I have a r1 200k ohm pot and add a r2 200 ohm resistor I should be set for rtotal of 199.8001998001998 for my pot to work properly in the 200 ohm pot riight? wired as pictured
