Hammond Design Questions

[Apostlyte]

Searching this forum is daunting sometimes because its so large and I am not sure if what I am after has been discussed.


I really want a hammond box with dual 26650's and the Raptor 330 (same chip in the sigelei) chip.
1. I do not know if it has been done or is even possible size wise.
2. I do not want to build it myself.
3. Is there a thread already dedicated to this set up?


Thank you all for the input in advance!

Yihi makes the sx330 series boards. As far as I know, they are only available to manufacturers. You'd have to salvage a board from a mod or consider using an sx350 board which are available to modders. Dual 26650's in a Hammond 1590B would occupy the entire internal width of the enclosure. There would be space towards the top to mount your 510 and fire switch, but I doubt there would be room to mount the chip.

Thank you for the reply!

So if I used a sx350 and wanted dual 26650's, what enclosure would I have to procure to make it fit?

So here is a 1590B which is a monster box with a single 26650

Here is my SX in a 1550P in front of my Raptor in a 1590G

Dual 26650's are a issue when it comes to size. You may be able to use a 1590B but the board will have to mount in the top cause the two cells take the complete width of the box. Why not just do a 1590B with dual 18650"s, I get decent battery life with a single VTC5 but I do not vape at 60w all day either.

Tough choice

 

[Apostlyte]

Thank you! It is much to consider.

 

[rhelton]

Hammond makes cases larger than a 1590B but man the 1590 is handful by itself. If you have big hands it may not matter.

I made a dual 26650 in a Hammond B box couple months ago, there is enough room up top for that board.

 

[Apostlyte]

See, I thought there might be enough space. Question now is anyone doing it that might be willing to take my money to make one?

If you do not have access to the classifieds here then post a new thread over on reddit https://www.reddit.com/r/PVcommission those guy's can help you out. Tell em what you want and someone will answer.

 

[Apostlyte]

Is he on here or the classifieds? I dont have instagram or reddit, though I could just buy off ebay.

That is a MOSFET build. Not an SX350 build. The MOSFET is REALLY small in comparison to the SX350 board (and a lot easier to install too).

Just get on Mouser Electronics - Electronic Components Distributor and look around for the dimensions that you want. There are SOOOOOOO many sizes and variations out there. You will need something roughly 5-7mm wider than the 1590B box. Definately doable though!!. Good luck!!!! If you want to check out the boxes I have built for customers, feel free to check out my facebook page that I recently created. just search for JJ Box mods.
