Hi Guys

So after owning a few various types of mods, I started my quest to build my own parallel box mod. With tons of research, headaches to source the necessary parts, numerous labor hours since it's my first AND the help of @Cespian...I managed to construct this baby.

It's far from perfect and experienced many teething problems despite extensive research. Certain thing you only find out once you build...

Please feel free to comment!

That is very cool! The envy is real!

If I may ask where did you source the parts?

It's a bit here and there. Certain parts local, others in Joburg...and certain overseas. Looking to build one as well???
Well I am in no position to comment, I just want to give you ONE HELL OF A BLADY WELL DONE!!!!!

That's seriously impressive and a huge achievement...CONGRATULATIONS!!!
Thanks a million pal. Still trying to find the perfect coil build / best combo. Really appreciate the comment.

Great stuff!!! I really have been thinking hard about attempting it, but you good sir have done it. I hope you enjoy vaping on it. In my mind that should be a super satisfying vape. High bloody five

High 5 to you too kind sir. I did a 0.17ohm build in it which was still very safe and well within the trip switch threshold . Hard hit and a warm vape. I build slightly higher now for a cooler all day day. Anywhere between .2 to .3
 
Very well done!

I'm growing more and more interested in building something myself... someday.

May I ask what the LCD screen displays?
 
@Nostalgic, actually yes :D, but more along the lines of an un-regulated
It's still unregulated. I just have trip fuses dor added safety.

I messed up my 1st box trying to seal it with magnets so instead I thought I'd use the screws...but then to get the batteries in and out to check voltage in the charger was a schlep...hence me fitting the voltmeter (LCD Screen).
 
Congrats @Nostalgic - looks great
Must be an awesome feeling to vape on something you built yourself!

It's an awesome feeling even though you test everything with a multimeter...a few million times AND hit the switch for the 1st time from a mile away lmao!

Awesome @Nostalgic, well done and enjoy!!!
 
So give us a tutorial on how to build one please or a few links. I studied electrical eng , did power electronics but I'm a little bit lazy to work everything out myself :-D

Lmao. I completed a degree in Mech Eng. My electronic knowlede is from messing around and being a Radio Ammatuer.

In due time I will be putting together a build thread and share it with the guys on the forum.
 
Don't think anyone can say something bad. Congrats on your built. Looks good. :eaea:
 
That is a thing of diy beauty.

I will be watching closely. Only part that troubles me is a 510. Are they available locally?
