  1. I present to you my overly excessive box mod:

    Snapchat-176834449795829325.jpg  20150813_190737.jpg 

    The box contains a 120.99Wh (Max Amps 11.1V 3S 10900mAh) battery. That means that this battery has the capacity of roughly 14 18650s. Believe me, this box is a tank, it's quite large, heavy and awesome. I used the Mamu DNA200 faceplate from shapeways along with a screen holder and buttons. I used XT60 connectors for the battery and atomizer to make sure everything is removable, so that if I wish to, I can build a new enclosure (wood.) if I wish. 14 Gauge wiring for all the internals, except for the 12 Gauge coming off of the battery. I also applied JB Weld to all the solder joints to ensure they don't come off after everything is secured.

    Specs:
    -Hammond 1590WP1
    -Max Amps 10900mAh, 11.1V 3s
    -Fat Daddy Vapes V4 connector with the 30mm ring

    What do you think? Excessive enough?

  2. Hello, I recently decided that I wanted to build a box mod that runs off of the DNA 200. Being new to building box mods, I wanted to ask some clarifying questions about installing the board itself. To begin I would build the box in a Hammond enclosure; an aluminium box with nothing on the inside. The implication I am coming across is that the board grounds through its screw holes. Is it acceptable to operate the board without it being grounded to the enclosure? If not, how might I get around this?

    Additionally, not having much experience with securing circuit boards, I was thinking I would simply apply epoxy to the board to secure it to the enclosure, is there a certain type of epoxy I should use? Or is there a better method to go about securing the board?

    Just as a side question, what would an optimal method of creating the micro USB hole? I was considering just buying a micro USB bezel off of shape ways and positioning it correctly, would that work?

    Thanks in advance!

    P.S. When installing a custom switch on the board, what should the switches be rated at?
