really digging the copper and brass combo now. would like to hear impressions from an owner before i start stalking Bay City Vapor to try and snag one. preferably the XXIX. but would like to know about durability and function from someone first hand. thanks. <*}}}>{

BCV just ran the last set of lists for their direct to consumer sales. If you didn't get on one, then be on lookout for vendors that will start to carry their mods in late April/early May timeframe. They posted a list of vendors on their FB page. As State o Flux mentioned, there is an enormous thread on CaliVapers devoted to BCV mods.

There are several BCV mech owners on Calivapers. With 101 copper tubes, high build quality (and James' excellent customer service) - the VD for nearly all variations/models, including the BFM, is about as low as you can get... zero.

thank you sir....must be a regional thing (i am a member of cali too)just doing a check here...general opinion kinda thing... got to get the XIXX and the new copper 26650 mod (why not? i already have the batteries!)...happy vaping ...

i played the game and even chatted briefly with BCV about getting their products without living next door to store or watching my monitor and refreshing a page every minute in the hopes of getting those. i decided i am not that much of a collector. i am more of an enthusiast.
already ordered a Talon by Versa and will have it today by 3pm. i'm already talking to the people at work who are excited about doing some custom laser work on it. thanks for the heads up anyway... now the only thing i will need to round out my arsenal is a classy 26650 mechanical. copper or brass, not looking for anything wild looking. the BFM is $250 and that might be a little steep for a specialty item. with so many new mods coming out there is bound to be something that catches my eye soon... best, <*}}}>{

Nice man good luck with that Talon. Yeah your right tons of new mods coming out, not enough money to try them all. I'm picking up a Surfrider hopefully next week from their last list.

215 - the prices went up about $20 due to new improved switch that will have magnet upgrade. I'm pretty sure the XXIX was $160 for single tube with old switch design.

just pulled the trigger on the BFM.... i love the copper . right now it is the Talon ,copper Vanilla and the big boy coming in early May.
i know good looks are a selling point but after trying the two copper mods and my shotgun...got to say the shotgun stainless hits as hard or harder the the copper...but there again we are talking minimal voltage drop on all three. can't wait to see what a near 0 voltage drop fires like... i'm totally spoiled already...:p

Very cool man...yeah it's difficult to tell a meaningful difference when you get that low, but it's good to know when you are getting close to max performance out of your device :). The BFM looks great...I'm sure you will have an anxious wait until you get it in your hands. I'm hoping my SurfRider will get to me by tomorrow...
