My first mod - IMR10440 X 1

[jackbox]

I made my first mod today. I used a battery box for 2 AAA batteries. The mod consists of a single IMR10440 battery, on/off switch and a momentary switch for vaping. The mod works but the box cracked a little near the atomizer connector. I also had to remove some plastic from the top where the momentary contact switch is located. It isn't the prettiest mod but it works, and it is my first mod. Here are some pictures.

Congrats on the working first mod! Modding is a lot of fun! Do a few more and that box will look brand new with no scratches or anything after you finish working it.

Just remember, once you mod you can't stop

Very nice, good call on the IMR 10440. Hadn't seen an IMR cell that small used in a mod before. Those are good for 8C which gives you a maximal current capability of just under 3A. You can pretty much drive anything with that.

Thank you for your kind words. After hearing some horror stories I decided all my mods would be the safer IMR chemistry. I have hit it pretty hard and the little battery doesn't even seem to warm up. They have lower capacity than standard Li-Ion cells but I will think that is a fair trade with having a "safer" battery.

Nice... I concur w Craig on the choice of IMR chemistry for the 10440...much safer than using standard 10440s which are really too weak for ecig use in my opinion...pretty clean job for a fist mod too...Your modding skills will only improve Jack...so pat your self on the back and keep on modding...
