README
README.mdReverse Engineered Vape Circuit Boards
Disposable vapes show up all the time in e-waste and are often found as litter at the side of the road (shame!) but they contain some useful components that can be reused by the cost-conscious hacker.
Note: Wear gloves when handling used devices and don't allow the vape liquid to contact your skin or eyes.
I've reverse engineered a number of different brands and placed the schematics and layout files in this repository. The summary table below is a good starting point.
Many of the vapes have debugging connections accessible through the USB-C charging cable interface, typically SWD on the CC pins, so you may be able to reprogram the vape without even opening up the case.

Questions
How big is the Ft03 PCB?
It measures 40.9 × 23.7 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.
What parts does the Ft03 use?
89 parts, built around the CS32F031K8V6-RA, M25PX32-VMP6E, TTP223-BA6 and CJ6330A33M. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.
Where can I download the Ft03 KiCad files?
From the schlae/VapeRE repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is FT03/ft03.kicad_pcb and its schematic BD0027/BD0027.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Ft03 design in my own project?
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask schlae before reusing the design.
