Inspired by a couple of the mods ive seen on here too lazy to find names :). I felt like making a battery mod so i took a trip to the local radio shack. After browsing I Found a Lenmar PPUMINI-M with proper box and placed holes there is no longer a need to remove the battery from the box to recharge. 2400 mah to boot. Because imma noob I still can't post links, search lenmar.com. I had to sacrifice a USB male to keep it clean. Use your imagination on this one. We shall see how long it lasts. Vapor is equal to being on passthru, after all it is a 5v battery. I can try to post pics later on if anyone is interested, honestly just a larger nicostick.

Welcome to the forum :)

If you build two, so have one to use while the other is being charged, yes no need to have removable batteries. It's a reasonable variation.


It can actually be used while charging. However, the box it requires is honestly too large to be practical. Good idea but I'll call it a first lesson in making battery mod. I used it all day with mostly no problems. Seems that battery does not like to be drawn more frequently than once every 45secs or so to produce good vapor :( on the shelf it shall go.

That's one way to cut down ;)
Seems it cannot really handle the current and needs time to recover. It might not last long like this (and might even become dangerous). Maybe find another, less-demanding use for it.

"It can actually be used while charging" - sure, but no use if you need to go out !

Yes, it's a learning process, and we learn just as much from what does not work as what does.
