I may well swoon with all these exciting developements in the pipeline.

( me swooning )

That copper thing looks like solid state vaping I'll swoon along with ya, Perpy!

Thanks hun!

Thanks to Tony, the DB *may* be back on the cards!

Ok someone explain to me the advantage of a double barrel ???
I can only see negative ie double the cost of attys , juice ,and cutting battery life by half ?

[Pinhead]

MrL, it's not a double barrel - it's a double battery (but will also run from a single battery). If the batteries are wired in parallel, then you get the same voltage but double the mAh, and therefore a much longer lasting power source.

There are certain precautions that have to be worked out before I go ahead though.

DOH me having a senior moment mate

[Pinhead]

No problem buddy... as I said, there's still some issues to iron out with them! Tony is providing a lot of advice with regard to a safety cut out.

Pics added to the first post of the thread!

And here's the prototype touch sensor... the screw heads will not be used on the final model as I have something much more flush-fitting in mind!

Sean, if they work half as well as they look , your onto a winner
Love to know how well the bottom feeder works ?
Even your insides look good mate

[Pinhead]

Thanks for those words of encouragement Mrl !

The photo's make the insides look a little neater than they probably are but the more I make, the neater they are getting. I'm still messing around with button and led placement so some of the wiring is a little longer than actually needed. Once I settle on the positioning, then I can make the internals much neater by reducing the wiring length.

I'm also keen to see how the bottom feeder performs! It takes a little practice to get used to but initial trials seem ok.

And of course, once the touch sensors are ready, the buttons will disappear! At the moment, my favorite feature is the discrete led light. They are hard to see in the box and look good when lit.

Very nice work Sean,your mods are gonna be a winner.Still very interested in the one that takes 2 14500 batterys.Any pictures of that mod yet mate??
