Dual26g wrapped in 0.3x0.1mm ribbon all 316l from lightning vapes. 3mm if 6/7 wrap .22 ohms. Very good to know, using a digiflavor themis with 3 core 30g wrapped in 38g 316l from advancedvapesupply 6 wraps dual coil comes in at .22 and works really well with replay.

shroomalistic Posted May 20, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2018 Any alternative to the turnigy 1600mah 4s 20c for 1590b? They are out of stock everywhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shroomalistic Posted May 20, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2018 Been using my paranormal 250c to hold me over till i get the rest of my part. Instead of finishing my b box, i got a blue n1 box, and an ipwm board, too big and issues with board. Regretting not just finishing the dna first. The modfather and scottua both look amazing on the b box and both work great on the paranormal in replay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on previous experience, the Maxamps will have 19wh-21wh total capacity vs a decent 4s 1600mah will be 22wh-24wh. If you are dead set on 3s, I would buy a 5pin jst connectorLike this. Then wire it like this except only jump pins 4 and 5 together instead of jumping 3 to 4, then 4 to 5 since I was using an old 2s batt I had laying around. Then if you do anything other than 4s, it Will show low battery until you set it as 2s or 3s with escribe. Love that solution, allows for most flexibility, I've been soldering a 3s to the board and jumping the last two on the board, but I'm tied to a 3s on that board now unless I want to switch jsts, think I'll start doing it this way because I just mod the connector on the battery and can run 2s,3s or 4s on the board. Excellent solution sir! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DkPatriots Posted July 28, 2018 Report Share Posted July 28, 2018 (edited) On 4/16/2018 at 1:05 PM, 67exec said: I used that box, and battery, ati board holder with drill template, and some m1.6x12mm screws and nuts from the hardware store. Lots of guys glue their board holders, but that makes it super hard if the screen dies. I used a tactile switch that came in a 12 pack from the local hobby store, they were in the arduino stuff for $3.99. I ground out so it will hold 4s 1800. And I use dean's t- connectors since my rc stuff uses them. Also grabbed my board from ati I'm going to be building my own 250C soon, so I stumbled upon this thread while doing my research. I noticed that above you said "I ground out so it will hold 4s 1800". What did you grind? How did that battery not fit? I was thinking I would use the same case and battery you linked in your original response to this thread. The size looks great and that 4S battery should give me better battery life than my current two 30Qs do. From what I can tell from the specs... the lipo battery you linked shouldn't be too wide since it is 26mm while the inner dimension of the enclosure is 27mm. The height shouldn't be an issues either since the enclosure is 108mm and the battery is 89mm. So I'm just a bit confused! Lastly, the five charing wires on the battery plug into the bottom of the DNA board in order, starting with black wire to ground on the board, then green to "1" on the board, yellow to "2" on the board, etc, correct? Thank you! Edited July 28, 2018 by DkPatriots Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
67exec Posted July 28, 2018 Report Share Posted July 28, 2018 (edited) @DkPatriots Top right corner of the second pic you quoted, and then the back lip on the door. Don't have any pics on my phone, and away from home for the weekend. Only thing I would do differently is to use 3 screws instead of the magnets to hold the door on. On a side note, I get better battery life on a 2000mah 2s venom lipo than I do from 2 30Qs Edited July 28, 2018 by 67exec Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ak89 Posted July 28, 2018 Report Share Posted July 28, 2018 @DkPatriots I used a different 1800mAh 4s battery. Dimensions were a little larger than the turnigy, but I got it to fit with quite a bit more grinding. A little creativity allowed me to use all four magnets as well... Check out my build HERE. The focus isn't on the battery, but it is included. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DkPatriots Posted July 28, 2018 Report Share Posted July 28, 2018 (edited) @67exec That's beautiful! My soldering skills are not nearly good enough to do something like that (yet at least). "On a side note, I get better battery life on a 2000mah 2s venom lipo than I do from 2 30Qs" - That's what I'm looking for. I can drain through 2 30Q batteries by early afternoon, so I have to charge during the day. That isn't a huge deal during the week, but it gets annoying when I take a day trip and need to carry along 2-4 extra batteries. @Ak89 So now that's i'm not tired and I re-read this whole thread. It appears the 1600mAh 4S fits into the AlpineTech B box with no grinding, but the 1800mAh didn't fit and you needed to grind it down. How much of a difference in battery life is there between the two packs? @Both Of you: There doesn't seem to be a Mooch for Lipos, and Mooch removed all his lipo test data. According to Mooch, two 30Q batteries at 10 amps have about 7.5 watt hours of juice in them, so two gives me 15 Wh. I'm looking for 20-25 Watt hours from the build I plan to do. Ak89 said that "a decent 4s 1600mah will be 22wh-24wh", which means with that 1600mAh battery I could go with the B Box and (I believe) not need to grind down anything inside the box to fit it with a DNA250C. Any idea how many Watt hours the 2200mAh 4S or the 2200mAh 4S Graphene would give me in comparison? I could go with either of those batteries and the AlpineTech N1 enclosure, which should fit either packs in it without needing to grind anything down. Could either of you provide me with a link to the white plugs you attach to the bottom of your DNA chips so that you can plug the charging port of the battery right into that? That solution looks a *LOT* easier than cutting the charge port off and soldering the wires directly to the board. Edit: It looks like the 1600 mAh battery will fit into a GXL2 Box, which is slightly smaller than the B Box. Any idea if I can save some space and go with the GXL2 over the B box? I'm now thinking I'd like to go small (GLX2) or large (N1), as the B Box seems unnecessary at this point. N1 for 2200mAh, or GLX2 for 1600mAh. Edit2: I found AK89's picture of the GXL box with the 1600 mAh battery in it. No grinding needed for it to fit. So It looks like I'm definitely going to go with the GXL2 box I linked, or the N1... depending on what I can find out about battery life. Thank you both! You have been extremely helpful!

Ak89 Posted August 4, 2018 Report Share Posted August 4, 2018 @DkPatriots I haven't used any other LiPo on my 250C. Just 1800mAh. Based on my experience, and remaining battery life at the end of the day, I'm sure I wouldn't have had any problems with 1600mAh. Also, to calculate total Watt-hours, you can use ohm's law (My profile pic). P = V times I (P = Power/Watts, V = Voltage, I = Current/Amps) Nominal voltage of the battery pack (14.8V for a 4s LiPo) times capacity (1800 mAh (milliamp-hour) in my case) equals approximate Watt-hours. So, 14.8x1.8=26.64. (1800mAh equals 1.8Ah) Connectors that I used are listed in my above-linked post. (I built custom adapters to save space) However, in most cases, you could just use the JST connector that comes with the DNA250C board and plug the battery balance connector into it... Finally, just to clarify, the image you linked of a GXL box was not posted by me. I used a "B" box, which is a bit bigger. I thought about getting an "N1" box, but the overall dimensions were too bulky for an all-day carry type vape that I was going for. My B-box fits nicely in a back pocket.... Ultimately it becomes a trade-off that only you can decide on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You pay attention well! Officially, I own 3 businesses in the state of Ohio and have Art hung in 3 States. I stay busy, makes me feel important or something. I ned to find someone with a CNC machine is all. I would love to build one with mounting posts mounted to the inside for no screws on the outside or epoxy in.

dc99 Posted October 22, 2019 Report Share Posted October 22, 2019 This is my favorite build so far with a 250C as far as the bigger boxes go. It is from stealthvape and it fits the hand way better than the N1. 30mm 510 and you will need there board holder and buttons but its pretty straight forward and great quality box. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
