wow !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i like that !!!!!!!!!!!!
I don't have any how to pic's but I built this back in Sept. and am loving my VMod xl converted to a Woody with squid rba. I call it my VWMod.Got my hands on some very nice gunstock walnut that I plan on making some from scratch mech's over the long dark winter. I really like bapgood & asdaq's work, very nice indeed.

Here's it's Baby Brudda...
transistor used as a switch that is controlled by the tact switch. keeps the tact switch from burning out from excessive amps.
its a 2577, so boost converter vs the 2596 which is a buck. efficiency with the 2577 is lower than 2596 (less battery life), but works fine for me + i only need one 18650 instead of 2 batteries in series. works great so far, and vapes much better than my mech mod. the only downside i've come across is easily burning juice from being a little over ambitious with turning the wattage up. no real problems with voltage drop under load running microcoils@2.5ohms average (as long as i keep max output below 2.5a).

Im getting one and trying...hey question...if you get a 5amp rated buck like say this here 1pcs Lithium Charger Step Down 5A 5V 32V to 0 8V 30V Power Supply Module | eBay can we run lower ohm coils with no issue?
5a means that you could run as low as 1ohm@5v, .74ohm@3.7v, or any combination in between... however i wouldn't since the 5a is the max rated (if that is not terribly overrated by seller/manufacturer) and would probably require heatsinking+airflow to keep from having issues. from my personal experience, the only way to tell for sure if a cheap chinese circuit/board will work is to buy it and try it.... actually i think that applies to all cheap, mass-produced chinese electronic devices.
Actually have that same breathalyzer! Found it in the kitchen drawer last week and thought to myself "I bet I could turn this into a mod" ya beat me to it
It`s a big box but for the first try at modding its ok....Just made this one to join the familyActually have that same breathalyzer! Found it in the kitchen drawer last week and thought to myself "I bet I could turn this into a mod" ya beat me to it
...My new favorit....
These are not mechs but seeing how there are other post with variable wattage/voltage builds I'll throw up my first 2 mods I recently built.
Dubbed the alumodi, my dna20 build, thread is here http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/battery-mods/509894-alumodi-dna20-build.html
