Hi guys.

I need youre advices, I have something in mind to do, i want do a passthrough connecting a tomizer to DC adapter directly, that simple like shows in link http://sia1.subirimagenes.net/img/2013/10/29/131029094135129553.png

like this --> DC adapter ( 3v to 6v) --> button --> atomizer ( without batery) only screwed in the 510 head .:)
this is to use it while I am at home at the computer.
you think this may have some risk?
some caution to consider?

I am crazy? :blink:

I accept any kind of criticism.

Thanks. --> sorry my bad english

I'm not experienced with electrical but i did have a 510 pass through once that was not detachable from the ac/USB part. But it still had a battery. IMO it is probably dangerous to not have a battery or something in the line to regulate it. But again my electrical knowlage is near nill. I'm sure some of our modders will have better insight if its possible and safe.

Thanks for your comment, the voltage regulation has build in into the adapter

Looks fine to me. Just make sure that the transformer and switch have a high enough amp rating. Use one that has an actual transformer (heavy) in it to be isolated from the power line.

yeah.
I thought to look for a transformer 2000-2500 MHA no more and only use 3 to 6 volts , and always verifying resistances of atomizers.

Most any rechargeable device (phone, hair trimmers, whatever) is going to use an AC/DC convertor that hits somewhere in the .2a-1a range at around 5v. Any 5v mod you see is around the same, except with higher amperage potential (usually up to 3a). That being said, using one of those adapters would be easy, and your diagram should work fine.

A 3a switch (very common) would be enough to handle the load. Look for "3a N.O. momentary pushbutton switch".

I would recommend adding an on/off switch to the circuit so that no current is flowing when not in use. That way if you leave it plugged in there is an added safety buffer.

Yep, i bought 2 of those yesterday waiting youre answers jeje, and i think add some fuse arround 2000 mhA between DC adapter an button.

Thanks for you're advices, I hope my English is not too bad :p
