As per the subject line, I made a box mod :-) excuse the picture quality but I've taken it for a walk down the pub! It's a rebuilt Vamo V2, as surprise surprise, the threads were fucked. I have two 18650s in there hence the beefiness of it, but I'm happy to have got it all up and running anyway!

No picture bud :)
 
Oops! Good job somebody is paying attention, I've only had a couple of sips of my first pint too - duh!

Nice work! Bottom firing too, I do like a bottom firing MOD!

That looks like a fine ale selection in your local!
 
11 on cask, 5 on keg and a few ciders / perrys, so it's not a bad place to drink!

Oh, and thanks for your comments about my handiwork! I wasn't originally planning on putting the button there but due to the layout it was the most sensible place, and I must say, I'm converted to bottom firing now as well :-)

Now all I need to do is add a window for the display and figure out which pins to solder the small switches onto - can somebody advise? Dusting down my electronics from school and I can't remember much!
 
Nice one Charlie - I see you got a Kayfun too.

Perhaps we should arrange a mini get together sometime towards the end of Sept? (I know Mark is coming back for the beer festival but that's not til Oct)

Hope you've finally managed to find some decent juice too mate?

Got a feeling you may like this if you've not tried them yet:

UKV01 for 20% discount I believe.
 
Hi Jamie :-)

How're you doing mate?

It's not a real KFL - it's a lowly Fasttech clone I'm afraid! Although I was just seriously looking at getting one from Svoemesto with their current 20% reduction, can I justify it...?!

I also have an Ithaka clone now which is quite a beast!

I'm now mixing my own juice, mainly from Tjuice concentrates and I'm much happier with that than some of the shop bought crap! Down to 5mg now too. I'll have a look at the B-Juice stuff though, thanks.

So a lot has changed since we last saw each other!

I think a meetup would be a great idea, you tell me when you're up for it and I will be there!

Here you go, a pic of my vamo board i wired tonight
Basically you just solder to 1 side of the little switches, same for the fire button
