I found this on Hobby King 100-500mah Li-Poly or Li-Ion 1 cell micro USB Charger, any chance it's a good alternative to the Evolv charging board? The price is right, if it is suitable. I might just make myself a portable one cell charger for the car, or possible incorporate it into a "FridayNighter". The WeekEnder is a great design and I will build one, but something more portable/pocketable would also be nice.

It would work, but I think Evolv's is more Mod friendly. Evolv's is flatter and doesnt have those jumpers and header pins. Also, this board is mini-USB vs the the more commonly found micro-USB. But, I like the large LED on this board, it could easily be incorporated into your case design somehow, even unsoldered and remote mounted.

EDIT: The description says "micro" but the picture is a "mini". I wonder which is correct? If it is micro I might try one just because of that LED.

Setup a second Russian with a 1ohm R41. Wrapped at 2mm dia to reduce clogging. Am I the only one still using the R41? This new set up is hitting very good on my weekender Raptor at 22watts.:)

I'm loving 29g in my TGT's :D

But I need to get my Raptor put together and knock the dust off my Russian and 3.1 clone and give the R41 vertical build another go. Actually I'm going to open up the vertical channels a little bit on my 3.1 clone, just to see what difference it makes.

By vertical channels you mean the juice channels? IMO not necessary, I have to pack it tight to keep it from flooding. :) Got six going with R41. From 1 ohm to 1.8ohm. If i pump the watts up it actually boils the juice back out the vertical channels and down the vertical coil. 24 watts on the 1 ohm and it becomes a squirter...;)

Rotating 3 TGTs and playing with 2 Aquas (no biggie with them, probably go into the scrap bin).

Gotta say though, the TGTs have totally weened me off the Gennys.

Yea, they're great, but I still like the flavor that the genny's give with certain juices.
And I would have to add the Fogger's are pretty darn good except for the occasional leaky issue.
