hey.. i was at a little discount store here in my city today and found something i think might be of interest to a modder... or even a store...here is a link.
Pictures by sassyblondeinwa - Photobucket.

those little black duracell boxes .... they even have a little light and lanyard thingy in the corner.. they come in a box of two.. with four duracell batteries and two connectors on for chargeing reg mini usb device.. one for charging ipod devices...
i can buy these for 2.00 for two of the complete packages that means four boxes and four connectors and eight battieries.. for two bucks! I wanted the batts so i bought two... i got eight batteries and four of these little boxes.. would someone like three of the boxes and wires... i would give them to you if you sent me a self addressed stamped envelope i would say 1.50 on the envelope would get them to you.... I dont want anything for these three i would just go ahead and mail em to you......... BUT would someone like me to go buy another twenty packages of these...lol they could make eighty mods... you would have to paypal me the money.. i would GO get them.. then i would package them up.. most likly in flat rate shipping box you would pay for and mail them back to you...
IF YOU THINK THESE LOOK LIKE SOMETHING YOU WANT PLEASE LET ME KNOW AS SOON AS YOU CAN CAUSE THEY WONT LAST LONG THERE.. I DID ASK THO.. THEY SAID THEY HAVE BEEN ON SALE FOR THAT FOR THE LAST WEEK.... AND THEY HAD ONE WEEK TO GO.. SO THEY ARE NOT SELLING REALLY FAST SO THEY SHOULD HAVE SOME IF I WENT BACK LIKE TOMORROW.... let me know..

Hmm, that's curious. Do those appear to be regular, 1.5 V each Duracell AA batteries?

Because if they are, then that would mean those batteries in series are supplying 3 V. Which means that box would have to have a voltage upstepping circuit built right in to supply the 5 V DC output from 2 AA 1.5 V's. And that's probably what's sitting inside the upper box that appears sealed.

whats to find out is what is the Amps supplied by this thing. is there a way to increase Amps output on a device?

Output is 5v @ .5 amps. I like the size of this. It would make a great little mod. May even be room for a booster & a juice bottle. It's got a boost circuit in it, but my experience with these(boost circuits) is that they won't put out enough current to fire an atty. Still, a 14500 or two, this has potential.:)

i got them at a liquidation store in our city.. two of those packages in the link.... for 1.99 .. thats eight batts .. four of those little cables.. and four of the boxes.. for 2.00 LOL that rocks... so i figured i would buy a couple bring em home.. and see if anyone wanted em.. since i wanted the batteries!!!! but with the response between here and the ECF chat room full of people i think i am just gonna go buy them all... that way a few people who would like to try a new mod can get them for the same price just gotta pay shipping too! and you can try making your own mod!

Hello sassyblondeinwa,
You are outstanding in providing these for us to mod. They really look sweet. And I wanted to mention the Video in the photobucket album. Killer vape video. I really enjoyed watching it. :thumbs: Nice music as well.

I`m sending you a PM but just to let you know I`m interested in like 4 of these boxes if they are available without the batteries but with the cords..

As the matter of fact I`ll be happy to get any cords others might not want. :D
