Dot Graph Variable Voltage Mod

Well, it's been a few days since my last mod and tonite I found myself back in the shop (my wife was watching 48 Hours). Here is what I came up with ...

It's just another 801 (my fav) LM350T Poorvari-based VV mod (thanks, Donptal) as you can easily see here. Wiring diagram available elsewhere on this forum.



But with a twist: I installed a Hextronik dual-range dot graph voltage meter on the face



It is variable from 1.2v to 6.3v approx by using a multi-turn trim pot adjustable with a tiny screwdriver as shown here (tiny screw under the button)



The meter itself is dual range, low range indicating 4.3v - 5.3v, and high range indicating 5.3v - 6.3v. I find myself tuning it to the middle of the low range, about 4.9v, which is my fav.

4.3v (red light)


4.9v


5.3v


When you want to go higher than 5.3, just flip the switch (on left of display) and keep screwing it in

6.0v


Vape on vapers!!!!!!

 

I might have to say this is the best one yet!!!!

What took you so damn long? LOL

 

Forgot parts list:

3-AAA box (madvapes) $2
LM350T (Ebay) $1
801 connector (goodprophets) $1
Dot Graph (hobbyking) $2
2 resistors (220 ohm, 420 ohm, 1K pot) $1 (really a lot less)

Total cost: $7

Not too bad, eh????

 

Sweet for $7 you can't beat it!!!

 

Costs seven bucks but works like a million ...

 

I really like that!!!

 

Sweet! Mr. Snider just wins a GGTB and still prefers to make his own mods. Gotta love him! *giggles insanely like an insanely giggling insane person

 

i think i need to has Asnider make me a mod, he does great work on all his mods.

 

Alan, tell us about the GGTB!

 

I am sure I will really love it! I am putting a trace on it, perhaps USPS can't find "Hooterville" .. honestly, I am very excited about it, can hardly wait for it to arrive.

 

Alan, your absolutely amazing when it comes to building mods. I just hope that one day you don't run into a mental brick wall

 

pretty sweet....like that display..have to check into those

 

Nicely done that is one fantastic mod. That type of display is a real space saver.

 

I love the display , I need to get a move on and find me one of those

 

Hi Snails ..

I got mine from Hobbyking.com .. only about $2 for the display but I had to wait for a shipment from hongkong .. I have seen them on Ebay .. perhaps you can find a USA seller ??? Would sure be faster but maybe more $$

Happy modding my friend
