(clone) Tugboat box mod help needed

[it0mm0]

So after an extaordinary amount of time waiting for the box mod to turn up, i dont trust it

The sled is marked up in serial, the box is marked up as paralel

tried it paralel, nothing
tried it in series it starts auto firing
tried 1 battery upside down as id read somewhere the=+and - had been put on incorrectly and it autofired

stupid of me messing with batteries i know

is there anyone on here that would fit safe internals for me, not overly fussed how much it costs to do

would just like it safe

Thanks

sounds Lethal!! can u post a pic or 2 of the thing, I would contact the seller too, photographic/video evidence of failure can be enough proof for refund full or partial with some far east sellers??

you may find a pic or 2 will reveal an easy diy fix??

Sound dangerous imo

@windows VapingBad might be the ones to sweet talk

With nothing connected put a continuity tester or ohm meter on the battery terminals, if each end are connected together it is parallel. But I don't like the sound of the auto firing as it may me a design fault that is not easily fixed EG need to make a new mechanical button or button parts, some pics of the inside would help.

thanks guys will get some pics done now

if its the FT 1 its a mosfet switch.
If it auto firing its been wired up wrong.
EDIT: IIRC from my own experiences of doing mosfets it may be something earthing on the box.
Ive done a few plastic wood boxes with no troubles but had a bit of a game with auto firing in an ally box.

sorry for the size of the images

phtumshk

it was from focal

ive had nothing but problems with this order from the start

[phtumshk]

Cant really see but wouldve thought the pos terminals would need a jumper between the 2 terminals to start with? as it is there will be 1 battery wired direct to the pos on the 510 missing out the mosfet switch altogether?.
But I could be wrong

[VapingBad]

Comparing to the FT pic looks like they have the outside black wires to the FET the wrong way round as phtumshk suggested, but don't relay on my look at photos.

[decoy]

thats how it should be wired

[it0mm0]

thanks for that diagram decoy

a guy im out having a drink with soon is a sparky, ill get him to have a quick nose for me

I know sweet FA about electrics

[phtumshk]

Have to agree with VapingBad & decoy that the 2 outside wires are the wrong way round.
Although having nothing bridging/jumping the 2 pos terminals on the battery sled will be like having 2 seperate circuits.
The button side will be wired to the mosfet/switch but not the 510 pos and the other side will be wired direct to the 510 with no switch.
So if you put a single battery in the button side it wont work but if you put 1 in the other side it will auto fire.
