My Favorite Mod of all!! Seriously Depressed!

[CloudBurst]

I've been vaping for a little ove 10 months now, I own several commercial mods and have made many of my own, needless to say, I'm as addicted as the next person on this forum.

I built my own little juice box yesterday, nothing special, 2AA batty box, the tiny little silver button switch and the 3ml bottle tucked away so carefully with the hose going to the cart, all of which came from MadVapes (except the bottle) I think it may have cost me 5 bucks. The problem is this...what am I gonna do now? This little thing is the answer to all my vaping needs! Compact, 3.7v batty and best of all, onboard juice. I have used this solely for 2 days now without a single refill of the cart. It's great, but now nothing out there even strikes my interest anymore.
The only thing I really want to do now is make one that's 6volt. This is a real problem for me! I spend alot of time on this forum, looking for who knows what but it has worked and not one cig for 10+ months.
Please come up with something new and better fast! LOL
Thanks for all the great ideas...keep 'um comming!
I would post a pic but can't figure it out again! Looks sorta like the one Dreans N Chains posted awhile ago...thanks Dreams!

Since you have one that you can use as your everyday vape, do something else.
Take a look here: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/madvapes/76162-intrud-alert.html
Then got to the dollar store. You'll find something...

I'd love to see pics. Ask Joker. I had to have Joker post my pics cause they wouldn't post for me.

You know you have to make a spare at least

Happy to here this. Nothing better then making a mod that becomes your favorite. Every new one I made became my favorite till I messed up.

My trouble is it appears to be the 5 Volt that I`m stuck on using all the time now. I try my 3.7 ones and think hmm battery going dead? till I blow out the vaper. Seems I like the throat hit off that 5 volt. And since I was really enjoying my 3.7 prior to making that 5 volt I will never try a 6 volt.

Shouldn`t have tried the 5 volt but that`s to late now. There is no going back.

Well, now I have something to do...my switch stuck "on", fried my atty and the switch doesn't work now! Guess I'll have to find a better switch to fit in there and repair it!

If you're real hard up for something to do..... you could always make one for me!

Just a suggestion with YOUR best interest at heart!

I'd love to make one of those dripper bottle mods. But, how do you know how much you are squeezing in there?

I'd have to have a see thru cart or something.

 

[CloudBurst]

You can see it going up the tube and just guess from there. Not too hard to get used to it.

If done correctly they're really not supposed to be that hard to use. When you release the bottle the suction can drain out some excess. There have been some mods that utilize a spray type bottle (UPAC is a good example) which allows for a more controlled quantity. However, spray bottles have their downsides too so neither is "better" just different.

Congrats Stormi!.... well, while it lasted. Switches can be switched.

I had a response typed up to this last night, right before I was leaving for work and the darned thing wouldn't post.

That's what I had in my other post.... it's not perfect until we get a voltage regulator in there to protect the switch. My switch stuck briefly a couple times, still puts out proper voltage but is apparently not putting out the sufficient current (amps)... it will not heat my atty enough to produce proper vapor. My last one (nico-drip) still works though...but I stopped using it when I cracked the top in experimenting with drilling a different hole for the tubing. I was hoping it was just this latest switch but apparently not.

I'm planning on reading up and experimenting with the regulator discussed in this thread:

Oh well... switches can be changed. I'm just not done with this one yet. And, at the same time, I'm thinking of other methods/switches too. When mine stuck on me Saturday night at work... I was even eyeballing MadVapes freebie little flashlight button set up. Very simple design there!

This will work with the LDO at MadVapes in a 5 volt though. I have one of the MadVapes 4 "AA" boxes to make one but haven't yet.

Wish you had pics.... we wanna see pics! And what are you using for tubing?

 

[CloudBurst]

I had some tubing from the one I made last year, I think it was from a hair spray bottle or something. I'm not too educated in the Mosfet regulator stuff???? Foreign language to me. Antway, I already fixed it and put the other switch I bought in it, the bad thing is, it's the same type. Oh well, hopefully it'll hold out until I figure what else to do.
No need for pics, it's just a black box with the bottle hole cut out. Not nearly as cute as yours! Maybe the next one will be better.
I just ordered a Tekkeon MP1800, 2-18650 battys and I'm going to remove one and add a bottle of juice, maybe even go 6volt with it. I saw a few completed mods and they look nice! Just need to make sure I get the right switch to start with. Wish me luck!

 

[dreams n chains]

It's foreign language to me too.... but one I am willing to learn. I also believe that few things are impossible so onward and hopefully upward we go!

I meant to post this link in my post above:

LDO 5 volt, 3.0 amp regulator with control pin!

as that is the one I used in my 5 volt mod...... not that the other one appears to not be correct too. Actually, I do believe I'll order a couple of those other ones this Friday.... looks/sounds great! And if they work at 3.7 volts as a MOSFET then they would work in my mod. I'm going to read up on them and experiment.

That Tekkeon does seem nice..... but lacking the blood, sweat and tears drama of totally creating our own from scratch. I like that part... ... I'm weird. LoL!
