mosfet issues, suicide watch

[dizmaloner]

Hello all, new to the forum but not to the game. I build wood box mods, and have gotten along just fine until recently I had a few people ask for mosfets to be installed. Im using the irlb3034pbf with a 15k resistor bridging Source and gate.

When tested with a multi meter it shows I get 4.2v to center pin of 510 but when an atty is installed it barely fires and the mosfet/resistor heat up. I have tried this with different 510s, switches, and have tried burned through 5 mosfets and resistors. Anyone who can give me any advice would be my saviour

Hi

I can't help you except to interact to get your post count up. You need to be asking questions in the Modder's forum. These people look like they would know something: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/battery-mods/620503-mosfet-boxmod.html

Hello and welcome to the forum. Glad to have you here!

Try browsing around the Modding Forum. Read all the "stickies". You will not be able to post over there until you get in your first 5 posts (and the server updates at :25 past the hour).

Yeah, it's a good way to weed out spam..Thank you for the welcome and the ability to get my post count up

Now that I actually read the thread I linked to I see it doesn't say very much, but that's the section you need to be in - Modder's forum, Battery mods.

How many members do I need to add?

 

[The Ocelot]

You don't need to add any members, you just need to make posts. "Real" posts, not just for upping your post count. You need to get 5 to post in other forums, but some sub-forums may require more; I don't know about Modder's.

How many members do I need to add?

You just need to make one more post and then wait for the servers to update at 25 min past the hour.
