I made myself a rough and ready usb power supply for my 901. Today i was looking through our spare parts tubs at work and found some leds, switches and a good supply of possible battery boxes.
My question is, or should that be questions are -
1 - What rated battery power should i be looking for to run a 901 atomizer efficiently wihtout burning it up?
2 - I'm guessing volts bewteen 4 and 5 would be preferred.
3 - I've been seeing a lot of talk about milliamps. What is the general consensus on that?
4 - Anyone thoughts about using a cellphone battery?
5 - How/what components would be needed for it to be able to charge while plugged into a usb?
I should of got the dimensions of the enclosures i found, tomorrow i will. At a guess i'd say the internal dims are .75" x 1.75" x 3.5".
What i'm thinking is battery pack plugged into a usb port. This would have a socket to plug the 901 batt leads into. When away from the comp i could take it with and have a batt pack.
I know APC makes pretty much what i'm looking for but i think i could make something lots cheaper since i have a lot of the parts just gathering dust at work.
Besides isn't half the fun actually making the thing
.
Any tips or links to useful posts would be appreciated. I have watched Madogs magnum vid and read a few other mod threads so i am confident i could build something easy enough.
Thanks in advance ...
