MRSpivey Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 Well... I've got several Mods in process but the one I'm fully doing on my own is a Hammond 1590BBK dual MOSFET dual 900 mAh LiPo with dual battery meters to monitor each cell pack. It's called the Pheonix since I'm using a lot of spare parts on hand to make it. I'm still waiting on the battery meters and a dual Schottky diode to come in the mail. This beast will be capable of 30 Amps continuous current. Below is the case after laser etching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walt Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 Wow, a lot simpler that I expected. Definitely going to be a powerhouse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MRSpivey Posted October 27, 2017 Author Share Posted October 27, 2017 Yep... I'm going to need to run quad 28 Ga Kanthal coils in the atomizer (4 mm diameter 11 wraps each). Thinking it will need to be in my Temple 30 mm RDA which has tons of air flow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squid Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 Where did you source the 3s LiPo's? I was not aware that there are any out there that small. Unless that box is a lot bigger than it looks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MRSpivey Posted October 27, 2017 Author Share Posted October 27, 2017 By running them in parallel you basically have a 60C 1,800 mAh battery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MRSpivey Posted October 28, 2017 Author Share Posted October 28, 2017 Well... I spent time in the man cave (AKA garage) and worked on the Phoenix Mod a bit. Put the magnets in the enclosure, soldered the MOSFETS together, and segregated parts into a box for it. Still waiting on two critical parts to arrive before I do the layout on the case and drill holes. I'm kinda stuck until I get those parts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MRSpivey Posted November 10, 2017 Author Share Posted November 10, 2017 Thanks. Going to put up a revised drawing. I ran out of room to put everything in it I wanted. So, I've gone to a three wire LED VM to act as a pilot (mod on) light reading 0.00 and relative atomizer voltage in PWM mode (and actual voltage in unregulated mode) when the fire button is pushed. The pilot LED had to be removed from play or the LED VM. Obviously conclusion for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm impressed for sure. Definitely not a beginner mod. First mod I've seen with user definable pulse width. Makes perfect sense however. Love it!!!
