I missed the class but reviewed the pics and the parts were listed which were used. I love the see thru blue box.
Question- using only radio shack parts means using a solid black box. That means drilling an additional hole for the led? Or would we just add the resistor and bypass the led?
Could you post the required parts that you will be using from RS if they are different please?
Nico has an upgraded version of the NicoStick he wanted to perfect before doing the class. It sounded pretty exciting.
Right! Sorry, I forgot about the LED hole in a black box!
Using radioshack parts, you'll have to gut the box, pliers and side-cutters work great for this, and drill a small hole for the LED. I like to drill my LED hole a bit small and shove it in there as hard as I can, then glue over the compression fit.
The resistor is ONLY used if you're using an LED, and must be run in parallel to your atomizer connection, if you run it in series you'll quickly find your atomizer isn't getting enough power to run properly.
I only have a 4x AA box on hand right now, but I could do a tutorial on that if you guys want, its the same concept as a 2x box, just wider. I'll be making the next tutorial thread in the main modders forum, post your requests there for what you'd like to see made.
