Although not the first boxmod I've made, it is the first one I've made with a MOSFET, fast change LED, and a PCB. I got all the parts from MV except for the MOSFET which is from Digikey. The atty is a LR306 with a clear drip tip. That bit of JB Weld at the bottom is because those drip tips are THIN and started to crack so I masked it with tape, painted some extra JBW from this construct and left to dry for a day. The purple tip is just the silicon grip from a ball point pen cut to fit. The LR306 gets HOT and the mouth tip is way too close to the atty and the drip tip is way too thin, so I had to shield it a bit. I like the super clear tip, you can see the 3 drops get pulled right into the atty.
It's tiny but works like a champ! I like how the LED will add a fast green blink after 5 seconds or so, it kinda tells me when to stop inhaling, hahah.
Overall it took me about 30 mins to finish. My switch sticks "on" a lot, I think I got glue in it or something. I'll probably replace it tonight with something that feels better.
My next one will probably be a 3XAA 5v MV modbox. The case feels a bit more comfy in my big hands; just waiting for a delivery from ti.com. Question to experienced modders, do I still need to use a MOSFET with the ti UCC383-5 regulator?
