Yeah It May Work (I Did Not Spec That Chip For You), But Please Note That Your E-Cig Atom Can Draw 1.0 A and You Are Quoting ".5A" For The Item You R Talking About, So You Should Work With That Information For The VR/ Resistor, An Other Words I Would Rather See You Use A 1.0 A Rated Part and Not .5A
There Are Several Threads On Voltage Dropping & Other VRs, Diodes, Resistors and The IN4001 Is Being Used A lot (Part # is Off The Top, I Think Thats It, Search The Shack For It).
Also The Lowering Of The Voltage Does Have Sacrifices, ie Runs Warmer, Waste's Power, Etc. So You Might Wanna Research It Some More. But having Said That, Their Is No Reason Not To Try Safe Things & Experiment Safely, Since It Appears Your Moddin Anyways. The Chips Are Inexpensive and You Can Run Them In Series As Well, But Not In Parallel!
Enjoy!![]()
The specs I quoted are for the chip (79m05) that was recommended for the OP's application (two CR2's), not my own. Trust me, I am well read, I was pointing out that the suggestion was junk.
