EbM Elite Box Mods Love & Hate relationship with iron wood..

We all have our favorite mod and we baby them as much as we can but sometimes things just happen. Today it happened to me... One of my favorite mod have a small crack  by the button. It didn't affect the overall performance of it.. It works fine.. However, I'm just disappointed that I didn't have control of what just happened. This is my hate when it comes to wooden box mods but at same time, it is also part of my love for it. I like having something unique to its own and can't be replicated by anyone or anything. The best way to describe my feeling towards my mod is like wearing my old comfy shirt. Its not great looking, it doesn't look my best, and yet it always finds its way back in the closet. A friend told me, it's just part of having its own character.. Just enjoy it!! 

Well, I don't think I can let nature take its course without me fighting it.. lol

Here's my fix...

Mandala by EbM Elite Box Mods

Mandala means "circle" in Sanskrit. It can be found across culture and in nature. They connect us to the world around us and to ourselves. 

Having said that.. we believe that the Mandala Box connects our designs together and we would use it as a platform for our future CNC mechanical and regulated mods.

We started designing the Mandala box since October of last year. This is our first design using CNC machines and we encountered a few learning curves in building a solid brass block box mod. 

Here's our initial layout and our first prototype (not the production box). 

This is the production box 3D layout.

EbM 650 Elite Box Mods testing..

After testing EbM 650 for about 2 weeks here's the tweaks that we need to do..

* stronger springs for the button and battery

* tighter locking mechanism 

* working on engravings serial #'s

* overall better finish

* need a wood stabilizer 

EbM Elite Box Mods R & D

We have been looking for different ways to improve our products and changing switches to fit our designs. Here's a sample of things that are in works.

Top button switch design. (This will help the overall size of our box)

If we decide to eliminate the use of springs on our box mods. We can use this battery telepin.

Update on the boxes

EbM Elite Box Mods design Mini 01

Mini EbMs started as a request from our customers that doesn't need the strength, longevity of a dual 18650, and size of the wooden box itself. Basically, we were asked to make smaller boxes derived from our 18650 designs. Well folks, here it is, Mini EbM 01 dual 18350 mimics EbM 03 design.


Design: Mini EBM "Elite Box Mods" 01

EbM Box Mods - New project...

Our creative juice is flowing again.. That means we are going to offer new designs or a totally new line of mods. That being said, we will offer something different than our classic EbM's. 

Pictures below shows some of the items we are thinking of using such as; different wood, magnetic switch, and different internals.

Whatever we come up with, it will be definitely exciting for us and for our followers. We will keep you all posted on the upcoming EbM Flash Slide edition.
