Making a mini box mod

[ChillerVapes]

I have an idea for a mini box mod. It would use a button/connector from a standard ego battery and a nokia bp-4l 1500mah battery (maximum output 4.2v) protective circuitry included.

Is it just a matter of connecting the battery to the button and away I go or is there more I need to know?
Also, could I use a standard ego charger or would I need to make a separate charging circuit?

Have you watched any of the Tin your Tip shows here www.vapourtrails.tv/ Gary builds the tin and box mods, look through the earlier ones first

That site looks epic but the problem is I'm on my phone and can't seen to find the right video. Lol

I was just looking for answers to the question but seem to stumbled upon aladdins cave of knowledge

Also look at the link on the very first post here allaboute-cigarettes.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=modding&action=display&thread=12823&page=1

Goth gives details on how he built his mod

The battery may give 4.2v but you need to find out what current it can give out SAFELY it may not give enough to get a decent vape out of it.

The other consideration here is what the batteries can manage under load, my tin reads 8.2v without a carto or clearo attached, which drops to between 7.4v & 7.8v when I attach a juice delivery system (voltage depends on the device I attach).

And as Des says, find out the limitations of the battery, and what it can handle safely, I would also advise building a protective circuit in to the device, and not just relying on the battery, as it is not designed to be used outside of a phone (most of which have built in protection too)

hmm, looks like this is getting a little more complicated than I 1st imagined.
I doubt some how that I'm going to be able to achieve my goal in making a super small (fold out) box mod :-[

You could buy a super small mod?

I would advise to start a little bigger, get an idea of what you would be doing, and then look to get smaller.

I will encourage anyone to give mod building a go, but start simple, learn how it all works, and then get creative, learn as you go, and ask lots of questions along the way (this is what I've done), with something like this, there are no silly questions.

its good but it's not what I have in mind.
I'm wanting to be able to keep it as 1 unit while in your pocket, most box mods you need to attach your atomizer to it before you start vaping.

Also, if I can get away with using a phone battery, I get the benefit of a very high capacity.

Did I read once that someone is selling mods which use a htc battery?
