hmmm this little 5v step up power pack thing works nice...


It was originally posted by Codfish here but it was easy to make in a about an hour.

This i snagged from radio shack $12.99 was a emergency LiPo cell phone charger.


Then used this "part number: 274-1582" as the atomizer attachment. 

Had to add a drop of solder to the tip of the center pin to accept a KR8 cartomizer, but since i had a 808 battery to 510 atomizer adapter i just used the 510 for the most part. But it will support a 901 model atomizer and cartridge.


The switch i had laying around it was a 1A rated 120v switch... push button SPST.

Construction was pretty dam easy.....

 Tear it apart de-solder the mini-usb male, place the power wires to the atomizer on the usb rails, although on the ground side of the usb male connection, you can jump together those 3 pads to get more surface area to attach the ground wire. 
(because the 2 to the side of the ground pad are not used)


 The insides of this thing are nice... i can think of a lot of mods to do from the ECF forum using these guts with different LiPo's, as for protection that's a different story, the usb pass-through and charging circuit is great if  you don't want to design your own... but at home for simple 3.7v projects hehe..... limitless.
