Nope.. Unlike some of you guys, my SJK has actually left the house.. It probably has more travel points than you.. js..Did the case cost more then the SKJ?

Semi shaved ape
The four states of arbage seem to be stoned,asleep,flaccid and turgid with some being more prevalent than others.
I use mine almost exclusively outside.
I use a cord.
I use it outside at home on the patio. I guess my comment was kinda sneaky implying outside means away from home.

I like the clinical looks and features. It doesn't look like it's for "smoking crack" so you can leave it in plain sight.
I don't think anybody has mentioned this but some people will care - adding any orifice restricting hands free mod like DDave's mod or adding a 18mm to 14mm adapter will mean that the mod will start to SMELL as it accumulates vapor resin. An unmodified SJK won't trap in that little puff of of vape we all see. My unmodified SJK IH is odorless compared to my WDLX which I need clean as the glass gets gummed up and it REEKS! I have to store my WDLX inside a case. or it stinks up the whole place.

It’s BIG, and SLOW (1 plus cycles to click) 15 second cycle time out. But.....
It’s inexpensive, and a good backup.
Doubt the fan is needed, so some space can be saved, but the board itself is long.... to those considering a replacement case...

Just a heads up that this IH has a GENTLE PWM type of heating profile. It takes a lot longer than most setups but if time is not an issue (good for sessions, not so good for single hit micro dosing) it makes for a great desktop IH.Issue prolly been discussed before, it would make for an attractive unit if the casing
Wasnt so clinical.
But fully functional, and the price is right.
It being BIG and SLOW is actually what some people want. This perfectly complements my small, portable and fast WDLX (it was too fast, I slowed it down.)
SJK + WDLX combined is still cheaper than a lot of other setups!

I rarely use it, as I have a Fluxer Deluxe, but it was my GATEWAY IH, so I’m familiar with its operation.
My DDave glass insert mod works great, don’t have any lingering smells with any of my IH units.

Another positive thing about the SJK is that it's an actual commercial product that has been in production for a long time.
For the one guy that it almost burnt up (it didn't) you know there are hundreds or thousands of dental technicians that leave this thing plugged in and use this thing full-time as an actual job. I think that is why the fan is there. So it can cool down a device that is plugged in and working all day long. NOBODY can consumes this much herb!

Okay, i'll behave

Sure anythings possible but it's not very practical. Unlike other IH that use an external power brick to convert AC to DC (something that nobody discusses in other desktop units - you need to supply the ZVS module with 12v DC and for a desktop unit that means a power brick.) the SJK unit has mere cord that plugs into any socket. It converts AC to DC directly on the one board, effectively making this self contained desktop unit much smaller than it actually is compared to other DC based IH units that need an external power brick.
You would have to redesign the board to use DC directly or you would have to supply it with DC voltage that is converted to AC then back to DC.
It's best to keep this as a desktop unit and get a seperate portable device to supplement it. I say supplement instead of replace because no battery powered IH can match the gentle and easy heating of the SJK. This is why I have this and the WDLX.....and other methods
I unplugged my fan to keep it quiet (as others have also done)...on both my units (the first one melted down while sitting being unused but plugged in for some reason, a pool of plastic in the heating orifice but no sign of fire)
