  1. Building My First Box (help wanted/needed please)

    Hi, I'm a new modder and can't wait to put a box around this board. I have the fullymax 10Wh battery and the fdv 510 connector, cable has just arrived as well as the xt30 battery connector. A friend of mine has a 3D printer and is making the box from the files that evolve supplied. He is having all sorts of problems getting it straight and I'm starting to wonder if a box will ever arrive from him.
    As far as I can see so far, having a box milled from aluminium looks as if it would run into the hundreds $, bit hard to justify.
    As a plan B, it seems as if the Hammond boxes are quite popular and they seem to be available here in New Zealand. I just can't seem to get my head around getting the correct one B? G? , would somebody be able to point me in the correct direction.
    New Zealand is having it's very first national vape meeting 4th October, the closest they could get to the 5th (510 ..haha), I must have this finished and refined by then 



    What to do is roughly layout your Dna parts (battery, board, switches, 510 connector etc) and take some measurements i.e LXWXH in (mm) then go onto Hammond manufacturing website and they have a full list of sizes for all there enclosures, Check the Data sheet and make sure the screw poles don't come in the way and if you will have enough space to fit everything in the enclosure, then you should know what you need :)

    bottom pin marked c is common, no is normally open and nc is normally closed. we want a no switch so one wire to common C and one wire to the terminal above it marked NO. that's it, that will fire the mod. the - & + terminals on the left and right are for a light or led inside the switch, don't need to be used for the switch to function but if you want it to light up too then need more specs of the switch at least. that's prolly what the resistor is for but that's dependant on the voltage. not sure of the voltage of the fire circuit or the best way to get the switch to light up. there are 2 points on the board made specifically for an led so you might be able to wire the + & - to the board there, prolly the best way but again, not sure of voltage compatabilities



    Thanks Turbocad6 !!! :thumb:

    I am also a new modder, and have been getting great advice from this forum. The question I have that is a little ambiguous to me, is do I need to add any extra fuses onto the wires coming from the battery to the DNA board? If so, what is recommended?

    From what I know the dna 200 board has a prefitted fuse just above the battery solder terminals and a bulit in charger so I dont see you needing a fuse but if you have any space you can go ahead and fit them on although I wouldnt know how to wire them in :)

    Hi guys new to the forum just after some help and advice. Total novice to building box mods and this is going to be my first, although do have a some amount of electronics experience. 

    I Have been looking around and want to build a DNA200 Box with a huge battery something I don't have to charge for days (hopefully weeks :P), something similar to vaping pixels Thor's brick or maybe slightly smaller in size although I'm not to concerned about the size of the build  (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pVeGTAaTJ8k)

    The case I have chosen (for now) is  the 1590P1BK Hammond enclosure
    http://www.tme.eu/en/details/hm-1590p1bk/multipurpose-enclosures/hammond/1590p1bk/

    The Battery I have chosen is the Turing Nano - Tech 5000mah 3S Lipo pack 45-90C
    http://www.hobbyking.co.uk/hobbyking/store/__11956__Turnigy_nano_tech_5000mah_3S_45_90C_Lipo_Pack.html

    The 510 Connecters is by FatDaddyVapes (v4) with the 30mm Cap
    http://www.fatdaddyvapes.com/shop.html

    I want to use a led switch the comes on when the fire button is pressed so I am thinking of going with the 12V Black Aluminum Metal SwitchMomentary 19mm 
    http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/12V-Black-Aluminum-Metal-Switch-Push-On-Start-Button-Latching-Momentary-16-19mm-/281131170886?var=580207455106&hash=item4174b93c46

    Going to be using 18AWG SILICONE WIRE from Stealth Vapes

    After some advice about the switch and how would I wire it, would I need to remove the old switches or should I leave them in there, also some advice on the battery would I need to add anymore protection? Also I have not ordered anything atm going to start of with the battery so I can make some measurements then I can go ahead and order the enclosed case and then the rest of it. Any other suggestions, maybe other battery that i could consider etc would like some feedback or someone to point me in a direction of where i should be going LOL :) 

    Thanks guys much appreciated
