List of MOD coverters for newbs :)

There is a surface mount version of the OKR-T That is nice and small. I can't remember the part number right now but digi-key had it on their site. I think it might be referenced in the easy OKR-T thread listed toward the beginning of this thread.

I have been meaning to get one to play with but haven't gotten around to it yet.

[TomCatt]

Yeah, but where would you put the atty connector?

 

[Quigsworth]

Hmmm, the wife's home...back in 5 (most likely sooner)

Anyone tried this?
At 50Lx25Wx28H mm it's a bit large, but it's rated 3A continuous and 5A max (massive heatsink).

 

[Quigsworth]

That is a bit on the large size...but for a psu reg it'd be awesome...vape till the coil blows...

I think that may just be one of the LM2596 modules in a massive heat sink. I don't think we'd need that heat sink for vaping .

I got one a while back, but haven't used it yet. It's very large (even for me) and not real comfortable to hold. I've been sticking with the 2xC box. I'm thinking of using it as a straight usb backup power as designed.

 

[Quigsworth]

I keep landing on those when I do a "funky new box" search on ebay and wondered...that big eh Teach?...I guess when you think about 4x 18650's side by side......maybe I'll pass.

 

[CowboyGoggles]

Oh I see. Didn't know an 18650 was that freaking big. That's HUGE!

 

[chatter97]

Its 18mm diameter by 65mm long, little big.

 

[Quigsworth]

I don't personally have an issue with the size of 18650's (in fact them and 18350's are starting to become my batts of choice lately), but a box that takes 4 abreast (1x4)? just not hand comfy...although if I found a box that held 4 (2x2)...run 3 batts in parallel and use the 4th batt slot for a 7ml DCC tank...might be a true weekend "don't worry about batts or refilling" PV...even if it is the size of a juicebox, hell, I'd build it just to have it

 

[TomCatt]

<<bump>> so I can find this

 

[chatter97]

You could subscribe to the thread.

 

[TomCatt]

True, and I may have. . Somewhere in the massive number of threads I've subscribed to

I've linked to this thread a couple of times recently and just keep paging thru the posts until I find it; so figured I'd bump it up some. Plus, it's useful and should be on at least the 2nd page of posts
