JiGuan TC 50W Box Mod Box Battery

thingiverse

I got this box battery to work with a JiGuan TC 50w board. I purchased the board for $18 at fasttech.com, listing number 3717200. Before I could use the board in this project, I cut off both the bluetooth push button and bluetooth antenna from the device. To assemble this modification, you will need to obtain a few specific components. You will need a 510 connector (like a Fat Daddy), as well as eight separate magnets: four that measure 3x2mm in size, four more that measure 3x1mm, and lastly, positive contact and negative spring parts are also necessary for this mod. Using my Prusa i3 R2 Evo printer to create the components required, I first printed out both the body and the door of the box battery using 150-micron vertical layer resolution. You can also use a higher setting like 200 micron without issues, but keep in mind that there might be slightly better quality achieved at this lower resolution level. I used PLA for the prints which made the parts slightly more prone to curl. I would highly recommend adding a raft while printing, especially when making vertical prints like the door because of how they could warp out otherwise! The printed components include three different body styles, each having unique 10, 12, or 13mm connector hole sizes (the Fatdaddy uses 10 mm, for example).
