Are you sure you are not taking on more than you can handle? It's just the questions so far make me worry for your safety. I do appreciate your concern. I am going to be using a safety circuit as soon as I discover the best one for the job. The whole point in this thread is to help in the design progress and augment my limited understanding to improve my abilities. I will not build it until the whole project has been worked out. However I am stubborn and it will be completed in the next 2 months. I do pay attention and learn very quickly. So right now the plan is 510 connection - looking for suitable ego/510 (I don't like adapters) 32650 3.7v battery - only 1 Vamo PCB - built in protection Safety circuit - added piece of mind Micro USB charge port with a usb 2.0 output port to charge my phone

Thanks Mac you saved me money and wasted time! I would have been kinda put off if I screwed it up this early. Found some suitable safety circuits on all-battery.com any opinions on a 32650 3.7v 6000mAh li-ion? 32.75mm wide 70.40mm tall
By the way, I would only use one of these behemoths at a time. Lol

Hi Tiberius, Why are you using NiMH batteries instead of Lithium ? And how will you get higher voltage from a 1.2v battery ? Hope these questions aren't too stupid. Nickel base batteries are easier for me to get imported. Lithium batteries are becoming more strictly regulated at the post so its simpler to use NiMH. Not sure on the higher voltage question. I know if I have two connected a certain way it adds the voltage together and if I connect them a different way it combines the mah. EXAMPLE First way = 1.2v + 1.2v =2.4v but mah stays the same 5000mAh Second way = 5000 + 5000 mah = 10000mAh but voltage is unchanged 1.2v Anyways most of this is still subject to change that's why I'm asking for help so suggestions are welcome! ?

Haven't decided yet. May make it out of wood. I love wood working. However if you know where I can browse some enclosures I would love to take a look through them or take suggestions on them.

Below are the various chips connectors and battery(s) I am planning on incorporating. If someone can help me decide how to attach everything it would help a lot. My email is readily available and I'm dying to get this thing started. Any help is appreciated!

Thank You In Advanced for any and all help and/or advice!
