Box mod suggestions

[kevlaa]

Ok so im about to make another box mod and i have the plans/buttons/box ready to go, just one thing missing the chip set!!!!!
Do i go for something different than dna30???? Or bite the cost and get the sx350????
Any other suggestions????
Thanks peeps.

the Raptor 20 chip is cheap

If you want something different how about an arduino build?

I have got one on order, no idea how to use it but it looks fun!

But easier obtaining kryptonite

If you find a "put this bit here, that bit here and wire that to there" type instructions, I fancy the arduino build too.

Seedy has some raptors I got mine from mod maker.

I too am Looking for a good guide for arduino but not found anything conclusive yet, bob salter I think was looking at building one maybe he has some info?

I have a Raptor(given to me by a member on this awesome forum)and am just waiting for the last few bits n bobs arriving from China to build the 20A box mod. Biggest hassle has been locating an enclosure to house it though as I bought a different lipo cell and it is a fucking awkward size. I got so pissed off at searching, that I started sawing up some Brazilian Mahogany I'd kept until I thought up a use for it.

Cheers for the link bob, I had found that but neglected to bookmark it, how is your build coming along?

I have had the same fun with the LiPo's, some are a real awkward size. I bit the bullet and ordered a stack of different ones from hobbyking to try them out for size which has saved me a lot of time and hassle but £150 spent on batteries is an expensive way of doing it.
My favourites are the tiny turnigy 750 nano tech ones (now have 30 of those kicking around!) as they are easy to stack and configure to something that works! Particularly like running 4 in parallel. I also have one of the hard pack turnigy 5000 nano tech 1s packs which looks like it will build into a 1590g nicely and with hopefully enough room for the raptor, my orange 1590 box is getting it's guts removed soon as the 18650's just don't cut it next to LiPo's.

I use the 1000 mah lipo cells in parallel which gives me all the power I require for any trips out however long I may be away. I then got 2200 mah lipo's which are being a royal pita to locate enclosures for. I was expecting to be able to trim a little off the connection tabs and fit them in my metal enclosures, but if I did this then there wouldn't be enough room left for even 14 awg wires.
