Heya ladies and gentlemen!
I am new member at Vaping Underground and new vaper as well (about 6 vaping months).
I use to tinker with electronics for quite some time so at last I decide to build my own Mod.
The mod is VV/VW and I will try to make it work with TC the next days-weeks. I use bluetooth for V/W regulation cause I really hate buttons.
I use a 5000mAh one cell lipo battery to power it (in order to keep things simple) and a 5V microprocessor for the control (PWM). This means that the mod cannot give more than 3.6-4.2V but I don't think I will need it with TC. Except that I am a conservative vaper and vape at about 10W so I don't think I will need more power eitherway!
My main problem is the mosfet selection! (as always..)
Although I wont need more than 30W for TC I would like to use a mosfet that can handle at least 80W. I have no previous experience with that high currents so I am not sure what I have to be careful of with the mosfet selection at that low voltage. Can a standard logic level mosfet work with 3.6V Drain-Source voltage?
Moreover I am looking for an easy to use package(Through hole or large SMD packages. QFN packages will make my life miserable!)
Till now I am using a mosfet I stripped from my broken eVic-VT mod, soldered to a piece of Perf Board, but I couldn't read the part num on top so I dont know what I am using. I just know it works with "conservative" vaping! (Perf board looks awful amongst my fabulous copper wires
)
Do you have anything to propose?
I attach some photos of my semi-finished, semi-steampunk, splatter electronics mod!
