Hi there folks of knowledge.

I've just got some batteries for my svd but everytime I try use them it cuts out.
So I want to use them to create a tin mod. I want to keep it as simple as possible cos I'm a thickas, I want to be able to do as much as possible myself so I can say this is my/your creation, I also want it to be some thing that's just a little ....... More. But I want it cheap. Lol. So what do I need and best way to do this

Thanx

Rob
 
my mod has been playing up so last week i went to the shed. i only have 18650 batts so these wouldnt fit inside a normal baccy tin but remembered i had a large one that a 50mg packet came in when i was smoking. dug it out stripped an old ego battery for the 510 connection. cut the lid of an old ice cream carton to fashion a battery holder. i already had a switch led and resister from when i was going to make one before. found a spring in my toolbox. drilled out the holes for everything. soldered it all together used the glue gun to seal everything. stuck a cheap dripper on top and WOW it worked great. i now use this at home more than my mod. its even got me wanting to make more so am about to start a wooden mod when i get down to the diy shop for the wood.
its a bit on the big side but really kicks its like starting again cough cough.
just waiting for my wire to arrive now so i can coil some atties for it.
good luck
 
also rob at stealthvape has put together a step by step guide to a box mod on their site if you get stuck.
really easy to follow.
ps
when you take your first toot on a mod YOU have made gives you a little look what ive done moment lol
 
Thanx for that bob
That's exactly what I want, the look at me moment. I'm also gonna stick a small dripper on top. Its a bully or clone of one. Just coiled it with dual nanos at 1ohm. I've tried ripping two ego type batteries open for the 510 but there awfull with the little firing switch built in. Found some now on the tweb.
So what do I need (without looking at stealthvape) for bare minimum,
Tin
Batteries (18650 4000mah. Can I use two, if so how?)
Wire
510
Switch

hope it helped robertgoldring
i didnt use the switch on the 510 i bought a push to contact button from maplins £1.19 i think. the led was 99p and the resistor was around 60p? it was all around the £2 mark.
if you take the 510 off the ego type batt .rip the wires and switch out then turn it upside down and push the centre of the contact pin out with grommet. remove the grommet.
get your soldering iron and heat the pin (still upside down) and any wire will pull out when the solder is warm.
i then filled the pin with solder and placed a nice piece of wire into the pin whilst still hot. let it cool.
run the grommet down the new wire and over the pin. then replace the pin into the 510 connector.

if you are not using an led light.

scratch the side of the 510 and solder an earth wire to it.
take the live wire from the 510 to one of your switch terminals. then take another live wire from the other side of switch to your battery case. the earth then goes streight to the other end of your battery case.

if you want an led light...
solder your resistor to a live terminal on your switch then to one leg of your led.and solder the other leg of your led to the 510 where you have soldered the earth wire too

to fasten my 510 connector to my tin i just drilled the whole to fit the threads through from inside and used a beauty ring to fasten it tight from outside. ( this also looks better lol).
i only use 1 18650 battery and it gives plenty of kick with a direct drip atty at 1.5 ohm with tons of vapour.

my phone is broken at the moment (wont charge ) so i cant get any pics up for you sorry.
hope you can understand this and it helps .

sorry forgot about wire .
i used some old flex from a dyson (i repair dysons) so had plenty hanging around.
 
Oo I lke that idea of fitting through from Inside with a beauty ring added. Think I may try that first before buying any
 
i wanted to see if i could make a mod out of nothing. but the only switches i had were solid on off types so had to buy a push to contact. and bought the led and resistor while i was there.
forgot to mention when i fired it up a few times to make sure it worked i just heat glued all the wiring afterwards. good luck
