What battery do you recommend to use with your .44 boost mod. Need to pick up another battery.

That's funny, someone just asked me the same question yesterday.
They said that they used a 3.7v Trustfire 900mah and it worked great in my .44 boost mod.
Good:



They tried an Ultrafire (blue covered) marked as 3.6v and it didn't work.
No Good:

I personally only tried the Flame Trustfire 900mah and I get 6 to 7 1/2 hours with them.
There are more expensive batteries that are said to be better but I haven't tried them. Batteries like AW 14500 and IMR 14500 (high drain)

Update:
Purchased an AW IMR 14500. Best performance achieved using this battery due to the higher "C" rating. But shorter run time. Got 0.5 more amps. I would recommend these over the fore-mentioned

Good question ... flames work fine in my VV mods, but AW's must provide lots more current, have blown 2 CE2's with the AW's during building.

Think the circuit protection in the flames avoid over-heating the coils ??? That's just a guess  :idea:

I've also heard that the 14500 ultafires have been a problem.
For the price and performance, the Flame Trustfires are good IMHO.
Can't justify the extra cost for AW's.

Hi breaktru and everyone! I just got all the parts to build myself my first 04050 booster but I can't find the resistor to Vout table with and without diode anymore. I'm sad...  :crying: help anyone? Thanking in advance :begging:

A certain member of ECF doubted the performance of the booster mod with a load attached and wasn't impressed.
Here is a YouTube Video that shows the voltages with and without a load attached............

Okay, so I broke down and bought an AW IMR 14500. I wanted to see what all the hype was about.
Do they perform better? Cranks out 0.34 more amperage. A little bit noticeable.
Battery life is half of what the Trustfire gives me.
My Trustfire flames are 900mah. (7 hour vape time)
The AW IMR is 600mah. (4 hour vape time) Wish they came w/ more mahs.

Most of the xxxxFire batteries tend to overrate there mAh ratings. I also think the IMR's are a bit over hyped from what I have read.

You should try the AW ICR (black w/silver label and red stripe). Although I do find the Trusfire flames to be a decent battery my 3 year old AW ICR's outperform them and are capable of supplying more current.

I find the high drain battery is a better choice. I notice that a lot of the boost mods shown on vendor sites recommend using the high drains. The down side is the battery time is less that the Trustfires.
I had problems with the UltraFires cutting out. I wouldn't be surprised if they where knock offs under the wrapper.
I recommend the AW IMR 14500, 600mah. SuperT has them for $6.69 with a $1.35 shipping fee.

Tolerance of resistors and trimmer will effect your Voltage Range Results
Use the parts shown in image below for an OUTPUT voltage range of approximatly 3.79v to 6.2v ... circuit visible to members only........

Devon, did you see how I stuffed this circuit w/ a digital pot circuit in a tube? "Vari Volt Booster Regulator w/ Digital Pot - Copper Mod"

That's what inspired me to shrink my modules huhuhu. Oh... SMD components really helps with real estate issues...

my latest @16mm tall, 18mm diameter


It's not a 4050C booster though...  but just here as an inspiration as I was inspired with breaktru's  :thankyou:

i have been looking at your .44 mod for awhile now...very nice job.

i have no skills when it comes to working with electronics, i have never soldered anything successfully..lol

i am more interested in how you actually made the .44 casing work.

I have a Rocket BM http://www.vapeatron.com/rocket-passes-bm-6206/ with a 18650 battery in it.

the only thing that i am not fond of is the big blue button as i want to make some cosmetic mods and the color doesnt go with the theme i have planned.

thanks for this link.. stainless or nickel look cool but the green one fits my needs  :thumbsup:

and yes i am lucky to have a rocket mod...

gotta send it back to him to check out the battery on it though..the battery is not taking a full charge...it uses a modded ego charger and when you connect it, it always shows the green light never a red light like it use to.(not the charger as i put an ego battery on it and the led went from green to red for charging)  :crying: will have to get him to change the button on it while its open  :)

its not from overuse because as soon as i bought it, it was used very little as i stopped vaping for a few weeks and went back to analogs.

i am going to give it one more charge and let it sit on the charger to see if anything changes.

 :thankyou: Thanks for the awesome mod instructions. I made one this weekend, a .45 caliber. I used a 10k pot from Radio Shack and connected the center post to the negative post of the pot like the diagram shows and I am not getting any adjustment when I turn the dial. It is a single turn pot and I used 10k resistors in the circuit so I should have a pretty good range. Did I do wrong by making the connection between the two legs of the pot? Or maybe the pot is bad? It vapes great no adjustment.

Can you post a close-up photo at different angles so I can see the wiring?

I already took it apart, but here is a diagram of how it was wired. Well....I can't figure out how to insert an image stored on my computer so I will try to explain. 3 legs on the pot, left, center and right. left is to circuit ground, right is to the 10k resistor that goes to post 3 on the regulator and center is connected to left post on the pot (the one that is wired to the ground). I thought this would allow it to work as a variable resistor.

I thought this would allow it to work as a variable resistor.

When you click "REPLY", you will see "Additional Options" below the text box. Then "Attach .... browse.

Sounds like you connected it like the schematic/diagram. Try using one outside leg and just the middle leg of the pot and let's see what happens.
Not that you wired it wrong.

Another note: I have used countless 04050c converters in the past and never had a problem until recently. The latest batch of 04050c's, at least the last 3 of them, I had the same problem not being able to vary the voltage. All I got was battery voltage out. Even removing all the caps and leaving Pin 3 empty w/ no resistor across Pin 3 & 4. It should have given me 5.0v out but instead I only saw battery voltage. This suggests that the convert is at fault and not the additional components.
If you can't get it working, try removing all as I described above, leaving just the circuitry for battery Input Pin 2 to Batt (+), Pin 1 to Batt (-) and measure voltage at Pin 4 (+) to Pin 1 (-)

Looks like I toasted the resistor to the pot (power in one side nothing out.). Will have another one in in a minute.

Yup the regulator is definitely bad I am only getting 2 volts from pin 1 to pin 4. Battery voltage is 4.2 unloaded. Well it was a free sample so no money lost. Thanks for all the help. Got to go haul my middle aged butt to school for finals. I can't wait to start circuits 1 in the spring and get access to real tools.

Just be careful wiring up your next converter to avoid a possible short.
Could be there is a large number of bad 04050c being produced lately.
Two of mine were bad from the start and one worked for a week and then crapped out.
My converters came from two different sources.

ANY ONE else have this happen on a recently acquired 04050c?

I've got one more 4050. Is there a way to check it before wiring it up.

Look at Reply #137
Just the battery and a meter.

"battery Input Pin 2 to Batt (+), Pin 1 to Batt (-) and measure voltage at Pin 4 (+) to Pin 1 (-)"

Very nicely laid out. And very compact. Did you cut out the cover to show the meter and is there an on/off for the DM?   :rockin smiley:

I have 2 covers. one with a transparent window (materials are from old transparent tape casing LOL) and another without. I use the original on/off switch but one side runs with meter turned on and the other runs without for full stealth vape.  :laughing:

blue thing is the pot. fire button is micro switch right beside it (the one with 2 red wires going in). below the 4050C and an n-channel fet so that I can use the microswitch without disintegrating it.
