I ordered a Silver Bullet alittle over a week ago. Works great so far. No issues.
However it is alittle large(duh)
I was thinking about ordering the BB. How the its preformance compare to the Silver Bullet? I know it won't last as long, But does it work just as good as the Silver Bullet?
Is is just as durable(can hold up to being dropped)

THANKS!

Indeed it will! The BB is a solid little work horse. You will love it. It performs just as well as the SB, just smaller.

The "hit" you will get from a 14500 battery will be noticably less than the "hit" you get from an 18650, and the little hit that you will get from a 14500 doesn't last very long at all. The BB is a solid device, the power plant it uses is not. If you will be using stacked CR2's in the BB, then you will get a better hit at 6v, BUT the battery life is even less. I say stick with the SB, you will get used to its size eventually.

I have a 3.7V Box mod that takes 1 14500 battery. It should work similar to the BB correct? If so, thats fine. Because the performance on the SB is very similar to the 3.7 box mod I have(just doesn't last as long)
I prefer 3.7V with a LR cartomizer. No need for higher voltage for me. I will only be running 1-14500 battery. No stacking.

The first hour or so will be fairly close, after that the battery will start to drop off a bit. May be longer for others, but i do use 6-10ml a day :)
