HOOT, HOOT! Wonderful work. More power to the 04050c.Just what I need. What type of battery do you recommend?
How about some photos of the new 18490 mod?
great work breaktru! how did you achieve 3.79-6.2v?
Can I use a 16340 in place of the 18350 battery. I was wondering if it would fit.
Next mod I will try will be with well known here PTN04050cAlready order free samples from TI and they arrived but... instead of modul/board like in this mod, I receive only "naked" chip?Please, could someone give me information - is it possible to order as a free sample this board http://www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/ptn04050c.pdf or must to buy it on retail price ?
hi everybody.I have a question.When you press the on button,the battery is getting warm? and the circuit is making a noise like zzzzzzz
Thank you very much for your answer my friendYes i am Greek and i don't use Google translator.Yes i made a boost like the one in the topic.But mine is ready to explode The Battery: AW black 18650The atomizer:Iatty 1.5 ohm resistance in another mod of mine works fine so it is not shortedOn button:the trigger for the atomizer i used a 22k resistor and a 4.7k resistor.the only change i have made is that i used 2 of this http://www.alifragis.com.gr/products_img/9305002.jpg25 v 100uf.
and the circuit is making a noise like zzzzzzz
Thank you both for the aswers.the led display shows 3.8 volt and it is zzzzzzzzzzzzzand when the display shows 5.6 volt it is still zzzzzzzzzzzz ing How easy this circuit and battery can explode?Is there the dander of exploding in my face?
Hi, I am the cousin of Tripolitis, Greek too. Nice to meet you in this great forum. I have received also some samples from TI of these boosters, but I have not create the circuit yet.I have take the four different models of the PTN04050. Actually these are the PTN04050CAD, PTN04050CAH, PTN04050CAS and PTN04050CAZ.Does these have any differences at their function, or their only difference is the pin or pin-less boards?Also how about the thickness of the wires, is that specific? Can this occurs the problem that my cousin has?
HiI have been readin ecf for some time now and while back i followed your .44 mod thread in here Breaktru. I have done few ptn04050 mods now and figured out easier way to solder wires and resistors and whatnots to chip, i really had hard time trying to get everything nicely soldered to "legs" so i just heated more and they fell off and then just heat bit more on that mount and use ..well i have no idea what that device is called(solder sucker?) but you suck tin out of joint with it .. and you have holes in your chip with much more easier soldering and it takes less space. Just wanted to share this since i noticed on your pictures that you where using those legs.Here's couple i made http://coolzero.awiki.org/en/?page_id=1066Edit. Just noticed previous post with "Two are through hole mounts and two are surface mounts. They are electrically identical." part, i had to check and i have used caz,cad and cas and they all have holes under that tin.Again just wanted to thank for this great mod for us to learn
Hi Cuz, and welcome to the forum discussion.
Great Coolzero, glad my posting helped.Solder Flux is very helpful when soldering to the legs of the module. It would take less heat if the flux was on the wire and pin and you tinned them first. The surface mount pins fall off very easy, When I use the surface mount I tack solder to the top of the board and not the bottom pin.Nice going with your wire through the hole. Just be careful with excessive heat as not to damage the module.Luv the photos of your mod build. Great stuff. Congrats
Thanks pal. I have a small question.. What was the diode used for and why do we need to remove it?
this minibooster doesn't drop voltages either more than 0.02v - 0.03v on single coils wich is very cool.
Well I just finished a mini box. I used a dna because I had it. I bought the thing when they were 45.00 and before I saw Breaktrus boards that he uses. DNA way over priced for what it is ( I would imagine that's why they dropped the price 10 bucks). I wanted something small that I could set down without it falling or rolling off the table (V3/with ss line). So Any who the Dna paired up with my ss line is nice. Wifes not to happy with my spending habits, but hey I enjoy messing with mods. I have one very good piece of advise for any one wanting to build a mod. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON A CHEAP SOLDERING IRON.I went to spark fun, and for about 40.00 more than that cheap walmart POS I bought their adjustable temp iron. Using it made me feel like a pro. With a decent iron I feel any one can build a mod. The only limitation is your imagination and pocket book. I'd like to thank BreakTru for a great site and his fantastic Ideas. I like your site.
