sx-350 stealth

[jmarkus]

i wanted to get this thing as small as possible and yet still have decent battery life. i glued/epoxied 2 single AA battery boxes together...a little frankenmodish, but a great size!

parts:
2x single AA boxes
1x silver dome tactile switch
1x bogger box ss drip cup
1x 510 connector
1x turnigy nanotech 1200mah 15c round lipo

Cool.

What's the little silver dot at the bottom left corner?

haha, i dont like the screw holes left open on the aa cases, so i add a perfectly sized magnet glued in. nice subtle finishing touch.

That looks just like my first VV mod. I loved that box, until I left it in my pocket and ran it through the washing machine. Great compact design. I still miss it.

what are the dimesions in mm?

2.5" tall, 7/8" wide, 1 3/8" deep (63.5mm x 22.2mm x 35mm)

switch upgrade went well, switches work like a charm, soldering was tight, but worked out just fine. also, fabricated a frame for the screen since my cutout was pretty sloppy.

that is nice work! yours is a little smaller than my sx350 mod. i'll post dimensions in my mods thread. im already thinkin about how to make it smaller. i dont really want to sacrifice battery mah though.
