Yay me!! I guessed the hell outta that one...on a serious note though, thanks for the hard work. I'm hoping to get one of the wood ones but maybe I can pick up one of each?!?!?!
Not this time around. My idea for the charger is to put studs on the bottom of the mod and build a charging stand for it. Unless the onboard micro-usb charger is more convenient. Still not sure how I want to go about it. Im definitely open to any ideas around the design of a printed mod.
It just seems more convenient to me to put a mod in a stand and it charges, Similar to a walkie talkie. And maybe the stand could have a spot to hold a few batts or something. Maybe custom stands with your name printed into it or something. The sky is the limit.
Question matador. Could there not be a wire from the onboard USB charge port to a magnet in the bottom Of the mod then another magnet on the charging stand, that when they are put together they finish the circuit and charging begins.. I'm no engineer or electrical expert but the idea sounds cool.

Agreed. I think the appeal of an onboard charger is to act as a pass through.

That is a really cool concept. The printed mod justs looks perfect to travel with. I am thinking, mod, battery and the mini usb cord. I travel a lot, and that looks to be a perfect size.

That could work, but soldering to a magnet is tricky. They can easily lose their magnetism with excessive heat. I tried building a wood pipe a while back using magnets to hold the lid where the magnets were also the switch legs and couldn't for the life of me get the magnets to maintain their magnetism afterward.
how about a retractable usb cable built inside the mod.. If I use Lipo cells I could probably get the mod small enough to make that work.
Yeah could you not use a form of cold solder?

Forego the magnet setup for a micro usb on board?

The idea of a matching charger base is wonderful but I'm more for user friendliness. What say you Sir Matt?

Also, to address a question that has been asked since I started building mods... There is a bottom feeder mod in the works right now. I will be using the printer to conceptualize the design, but will be made of wood in the final stages.
I can make one however you want. I'll start working on integrated charger mods in the next batch.
Well...it looks like I'll be buying twice in a row! My wife is going to hate...YOU! I have no self control when it involves a hobby. I need to work on that, but in the meantime...you profit off of my weakness. Lucky you.
