Hi all. Just a few pics of my latest creation. I' annoyed with myself here because it' not as neat as I planned. Mainly because I got a little over enthusiastic and accidentally ripped the pot leads from the board.
The board in question is the potbelly by Swedish vapers uk. I emailed them before hand asking about switching out the type 93 for an rm065 Pot. They were helpful and quick at replying and Joel there was awesome. It arrived with a type 93 pot attached with wires which was ideal (these boards usually come with the pot mounted to the board itself) but as it turns out I didn't use the RM065 and went with the type 93 that it came with.
Now I'd like to add that I was heavily medicated at the time due to a thought injury. I thought I was still 18 when I lifted 2 25kg sacks of cat litter and when 1 started to slip it pulled me down and twisted me en route. The resulting back pain was being kept at bay by vast amounts of prescription pain meds at the time so I'm mildly annoyed with my work but it' my own fault so anyways. Here's a few pics.
The board itself is tiny! I love it. It comes with the wires you see in the pics already attached. Which was new for me and tbh previously I've soldered to the board in situ but this was in reverse for me. It wasn't as bad as I was expecting considering space was an issue on this 3s and the whole thing took about 3 hours.
It was a lot neater but as I'd wrapped the board in heatshrink I hadn' seen the damage I'd done to the pot connections. So I removed the wrap, soldered the connections back up, put it back in and realised I didn' have the room to get it and rewrap it so it' staying as is.
I'm also liking the fire button on top. I think next time I do this I'll change up the pot or get a bezel for the type 93. It gives a nice little buzz when firing as well. A cracking board and for the price (£18 or about $24) it's awesome. Admittedly it doesn't have features like on/off or memory like a big als board but I couldve easily added a switch for that if I had so desired. Also being about 1/3 the size the space saving is worth it.
