[How To Build A Easy Vv Dual 18650 Wood Mod (Images Heavy)]

I agree with you. I actually made 2 mods 1 with 200 ohm and 1 with 220 ohm just to see if any difference. While the 200 ohm will go up to 6.5 volts I never planned to actual vape at that level. When I said as recommended I meant recommended by OP of the easy OKR-T thread not from the manufacture spec. sheet so I apologize for steering people wrong. And thank you for posting that chart which will help people decide what their top voltage will be. I appreciate this being pointed out and would very much like it if anyone else tells me about any other things they see.

Also I would love any other feed back good or bad on this mod. So far the replies have been very scarce on both how to's

[Testing Flavors?]

The easiest way I have found to test a new flavor for me is to use a phoenix rebuildable atomizer with a stainless steel wick . It gives me a very clean flavor and taste. Very easy to rinse out dries quickly then on to the next flavor.

Here is what we are building

Parts List

Mad Vapes

510 Connector

18650 Batteries 2 at least

Voltage Display - Only if you want to mount a outside display on the mod. It can be monitored with a screw on display or multimeter. But it is much easier with it already on there.

Horn Switch

Vapoligy

(2) Pairs Battery Spring Plates - Battery Spring Plate

Radio shack

PCB- Printed Circuit Board They have a few get the one that has a mix of 2,3,none, and continous connections between holes they sell

for aroung $2.50. Or if able to make your own.

Small magnets If needed

Digikey - Once again a big thank you to bstedh on the ECF forum for a great post and diagram. Here is a link if anyone wants to read

Easy OKR-T VV mod

OkR-T Switching Regulator comes in 3,6, and 10 amp sizes. I ordered a 6 amp for this one and a 3 amp for another mod. Very happy with both. Batteries last a lot longer than linear regulators.

Power Supplies - Board Mount | DC DC Converters | DigiKey

A 200 ohm Trimmer/Pot

3352T-1-201LF Bourns Inc. | 3352T-201LF-ND | DigiKey

A 200 ohm resistor - there is a discussion on the thread over what size resistor need to set upper voltage but went with recommended.

MRS25000C2000FRP00 Vishay BC Components | PPC200ZCT-ND | DigiKey

Home Depot

1/4"x 1 1/2" x 24" Hobby Board - I went with the alder on this one.

3/4" screen - once again you can use any scrap piece you already have.

20 to 22 gauge wire

Tools Needed Same as before See Previous Tut

?do=embed' frameborder='0' data-embedContent>

Cuts needed

Hobby Board

(4) 4 1/4" pieces look for interesting patterns and label front and back. Others label left and right.

(2) 2" pieces label top and bottom

(1) 1 1/2" Label Angle piece

3/4" screen

(1) 1 1/2" piece label support

(1) 1 1/4" piece label U

(2) 3" pieces label U

Once again feel free to substitute what you already have available for what is listed here.

First steps:

Hopefully I covered everything you need to make your own. But if you have any questions or see any safety concerns please fill free to post. Any and all Comments and or critiques are greatly appreciated.

Also if you do make one please post a picture for me.

With this regulator and these batteries It seems I can vape for 2 + days with lots and lots of vapor between charges.

And Once again thank you to Christopher and jeffb for there assistance to me.

Enjoy and Happy Vaping!

[How To Build A Easy & Inexpensive 3.7 V Wood Mod (Image Heavy)]

Even though I am brand new here I wanted to get started on the right foot. So I made this hopefully easy to follow Tutorial to help out anyone who likes the look of wood mods but like me can't afford them right now. This was made in an apartment with hand tools, so you don't need a fancy workshop or special tools to make it. So If you think of a easier way to do something or want to substitute a part you already have that will work for You go right ahead. Also I tried to make this as comprehensive as possible , but if you have any questions or comments please feel free to Post.

P.S. I will also be posting a followup Tutorial for a VV Dual 18650 wood mod next which will be referenced back to this tutorial for the basic box build and to highlight the differences. So please be sure to check out that one also.

This one is a simple one battery mod but it works great and I find myself alternately using it all day and very light weight so easy to carry around when out and about.

Here is what is getting built

Here is the part list of what is needed to build it you may already have these items if not I will tell you where I obtained them. If you are anything like me once you build your first mod you want to keep on modding everything. So I recommend that you get a few of these parts so that when mod fever comes over you. Everything you need is right there. Once again feel free to substitute for any parts that you

may already have available.

Madvapes -

510 sealed battery connector - $1.49 Either silver or brass. They can be a pain to solder so Madvapes offers prewired ones for $2.99 its up to you.

Horn Switch - $.89 they come in many colors and have been very sturdy for me with a nice clicky feel when pushed

$2.99 New chrome switch picked up a couple so far like the way they look but no clicky when pushed

LED - $.49 to $1.59 Come in 3mm or 5mm with many colors to choose from pick the one you like (they come with resistor needed added to package so no need to buy separately)

If you don't already have batteries and a charger you might want to pick some up. The way this mod is built you can use 16340 or 18350 or any battery that will fit a 19mm x 38mm (Spring fully depressed) holder. You can pick IMR or protected your choice I recommend at least 2 (1 charging while other being used)

If you have never been to this site look around some they have a lot of great stuff especially for DIY

Vapoligy - They have a 5% off code Outcast Vaping. Plus they offer a lifetime 10% off for current and former military (any Military or Veteran get 10% off FOREVER! All they have to do is create an account then email me a scan or anything that proves military service of any kind in any branch to jim@vapoligy.com and I will code them to a special “Military personal” account wich gives the military discount on all prices, then on top of that they can still use a coupon code for even better savings.

http://www.vapoligy.com/index.php?l=product_list&c=27

Battery spring plates .99 a pair I found these and like how sturdy & easy to work with these are. But you can use any type of connectors or holders you want. Just adjust the sizes accordingly.

Another site worth looking around for other stuff he even carries kanthal, nichrome, and wick for when you get a Rebuildable atomizer.

(3) 6 inch red wires and (3) 6 inch black wires - solid or stranded 20 to 22 gauge

Small rare earth magnets - A few months ago I went on amazon and bought (50) 1/8 x 1/16 magnets but can't remember where I bought them at but I believe radio shack carries 1/4" ones which should work you need at least 4

Home depot

Hobby board red oak $1.49 for a 1 1/2" x 1/4" x 2 foot I love the grain on these. They also come in other widths and lengths if you decide to make more mods.

3/4" wood screen $2.29 for 8 foot length. If you already have a piece of wood 3/4" wide use that. If not get this and cut it in half in the store for easier carrying.

Tools needed

Hopefully you have most of these already which will save you money. If not most can be picked up at Home depot

Drill and various bits

Soldering Iron

Solder and flux or solder embedded with flux

Hand Saw

Mitre Box

Some type of Clamp I picked up mine at Big Lots Years ago and can't remember how much. Home Depot sells them for aroung $10 bucks. or you can use tape or string or whatever clamp parts together until glue dries

Some type of Wood Glue make sure its stain-able (Liquid Nails from Home depot has been working for me)

Super Glue

Hot glue gun

Wire strippers

Various grits of sandpaper

Sanding block

Small can of Wood Stain Pick the color you like best at Home depot near the paint section. I use MinWax brand with success

Small can of fast drying polyurethane same as above

(Both can be found at walmart also.)

Alright now that is out of the way lets get to it shall we.

First off using mitre box cut red oak hobby board you need

(4) 2 1/2" pieces look at them find some interesting patterns and mark those for your front and back other 2 left and right

(2) 2" pieces again mark them top and bottom

(1) 1 3/4" piece marked as angle panel

from screen wood you need

(1) 2" piece

(1) 3/4" piece

Helpful Tips - Always use the same tool for all your measurements

Measure,mark and cut. Do not mark all your cuts at the beginning and then try and cut them 1 after another some pieces will be longer than the others.

Run sandpaper lightly over cut edges to remove excess before you measure.

always cut on same place of the mark whether you go left/right or directly on the mark.

If you have access to power tools like a table saw or sanders use them it will make this much easier.

I hope you enjoyed my tutorial.

Do me a favor if anyone makes one please post a picture for me I would love to see it. I would also appreciate any and all comments and or critiques.

Or if anyone feels I gave out any unsafe advice please let me know.

A great many thanks to Christopher and Jeffb for their permission and assistance in getting this posted.

Its a pretty great feeling when someone asks you where you bought your mod and you are able to tell them No I made it.

[Hola From The Land Of Enchantment]

Just wanted to Introduce myself and give a little background history. I have been vaping for just about 6 months now. I started like quite a few people with a ego-c starter kit. this allowed me to to quit a 30 year 2 1/2 pack a day habit when nothing else would. It worked great for about the first month then started leaking so began the journey to find the best and easiest equipment. Right now it's RBA that seem to be working best for me. Around the same time I started DIY juice a very interesting and fun part of the vaping experience. Also wanted a backup PV so made my first mod a puck variant. The next month I decided I loved the way wood mods looked but the wallet said no go. So I decided to try and make my own. And that's all she wrote I now find myself building one after another having a blast doing it.

Before I get a Pic or it didn't happen reply here are some of the wood mods I have made.

I look forward to being a productive member of what looks like a great forum. Thanks for reading.
