New Here..Looking for help with MOD

[daniel5383]

Hello all, I am brand new to all of this...Don't really know that much, but i'm going to try and make my own mod. I found a tutorial of how to make it, but in the tutorial it is a 3.7v and I was wanting either a 5volt or 6volt device. Here are the supplies needed to make it for the 3.7, what do I need to make it 5volt or 6volt?

1 Goldrush tube
1 14500 Battery
1 510 Connector (I used a open ended one and solder fill to seal it)
1 Push Button (I used Horn Style, Black, 5A)
Some wire
Some shrink tubing (Optional)
Positive Head Cap ( I used a Lipton Ice tea Cap, is heavy Plastic)
Spacer for behind Positive head Cap (Optional, but help prevent any cap movement by battery) (I Used a
3ml juice bottle top)
Something for Positive Tip (I used a old center post from a extra 510 Connector I had) (You can use​

anything that will go thru the plastic and solder up to a wire)

Well, to get to 6v, you'd need batteries that can fit in the tube and stack for 6v. Unfortunately, if it's a 14500 tube, there aren't any good options. I believe there is now a 14250 that can be stacked, but not sure if they are stackable to 6v (14500's are typically 3.7v batteries, and I believe the 14250's are too).

As for 5v, you need a way to regulate the voltage down to 5v. That way, any batteries you stack will not matter, so long as they combine for at least 5v.

You might be better off starting with a 5v box mod. There should be plenty of schematics here in the Modders forum.

Try this link: Modders Forum - I'm sure that if you look around, you will find the info you need.

You can't power up a batter you can only regulate it down. A single 14500 is 3.7 volts there is no way to get more volts only less. However you can change the wattage by using a lower omh atty or cartomizer. The lower the ohms the higher the watts. A nice simple 3.7 volt mod with a 14500 can be improved a lot with the use of a lower resistance cartomizer. In fact that is my favorite.

Sometimes you can fit 2 cr2's (protected) in a 14500 tube, to give you 6V or 7.4 depending on what voltage you get, either 3V or 3.7V CR2. You might be able to use a 5V battery, it is the size of a 14650. i haven't tried this one.

There is a certain amount of a learning curve to making mods it's usually suggested that you take a stab at one that is slightly simpler to make than that particular one. Madvapes offers a 3.7v box kit that seems to be relatively easy to slap together and is very cheap. Combined with a low resistance atty you are simulating a 5v vape anyway.I get the impression that many people moved to the higher voltages in the past because there just weren't the options that there are now for low resistance. It's totally your call which way you want to go with this. You should have fun making your mod regardless of the path you take
