Very Very Nice Work!!!!! Welcome Mikrosoft!! Please share all your work here.

So the VV, are those wires going to the back plate for a built-in charger? Looks like a pair of 18350's ??? Do you have to open the box to access the voltage adjustment? What regulator are you using? Tell us all about it.

The pipe .. did you start with a commercially-made briar pipe or did you do all the woodwork yourself? That pipe is amazing! How much do you sell them for? Do you ship to the USA? More info please.

Thanks, Alan

On further inspection of your picture, it looks like a pipe I bought from China, made of some type of synthetic material with an insert for the firepit. Does your battery live in the bowl or are you using a small diameter battery in the stem? What battery does it use?

I have had no time to work on my pipe for months, too busy working on other stuff. I do remember that the material it was made of was really hard to drill for the touch pad, the material itself is some type of black carbon material.

My pipe in progress showing touch switch


The carto installed


The stem installed over the carto


Note the inside of the bowl is black colored .. that is the material the pipe is made of.

Still haven't solved the MOSFET and battery problem, this will definitely be my 'to-go' vape when I go for a weekend away from home. Looks cool and it will vape nicely when finished (if I ever do get it finished) LOL

Thak you for the compliment the vv box mod,the wires going to the front are an on off master switch and if you look at the green led their is a knob above which pokes through the case made from a qtip tube this adjusts the regulator. and a tactile switch button cover,
This is the regulator i used it was an all in one salution for me easier and it runs off of 2 18350 batteries.
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/160605361491?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649
it runs 1.25v up to 30v dependant on input i think as i get 3.0v to 7.1v fully charged.




the pipe is a chinese knock off like yours it takes a 18350 batt no taller than 35mm it has a battery holder that pulles out to fit the battery i have done a walkthrough here http://ukvapers.com/topic/7920-pipe-mod-to-be-proud-of/
for all the parts and here is where i sell i have made a modification to the button top as well here http://ukvapers.com/topic/8394-mikro-pipe-mod/
I have named it the Mikro pipe and its selling well just need the time to build them lol.

Very nicely done. Good voltage range for all atty/carto sizes.

Very good. Looks really cool. I also like the D.M.
Do you have a separate button for the meter?

Thanks yes just below the main black button there is a small clear button connected to a tact switch inside the case also if you press the atty button and the display button it tells me what voltage is going to the atty as well.

The box is really nice as well as the pipe mod.
How's that V.V. module working out? What's the max amps?

Follow the link from MS, believe it said 2.5a max input, 3a max output

Hi Mikrosoft .. haven't heard from you on USA forums lately, how are the Mikro Pipes coming along? Are you shipping to the US? Got any prices USD? How about more pics? Thanks, Alan
