Managed this rig up a homemade induction heater from a 10$ board off amazon +7$ cigarette plug terminal cable
Induction heater is for my dynavap, the commercial ones are quite expensive and I figured it would be a cheap and easy project to make one up
I made a quick YouTube video showing the IH off :)
The board is rated for up to 12v10a so 120 watts. Its able to heat up the dynavap to combusting temps in about 10 seconds so I wouldn't doubt its able to melt thin wire in short order. For my purposes it's actually almost too powerful so either need to lower the turns in coil or add a potentiometer on to the circuit
Or get a housing for the unit and a glass slide for the inside of the coil. By the time you do that it will be pretty dialed in. Source: I’ve built a few
Do you have any good suggestions for what I can do for housing unit? Was thinking of getting a little wood cigar box from local smoke shop. Glass slide is a good idea. I actually do have it pretty dialed in now after a week of daily use took a bit of time and practice.

Make sure the measurements are large enough since I’m not sure this is the exact one.
