Ok so, I picked up my kanger dripbox today from my local vape shop, the owner was holding it for me and apparently was the only one since they had to pull it and wasn't allowed to sell it yet for reasons unknown, I didn't ask. Anywho, for 35$ I honestly can't complain. I've tried all 3 of my BF rda's on it, pancake, narda, and the hobo 3.1 and they all squonk just fine. I also used different pg/vg ratios and I don't see the plunger on the bottom being a problem, it takes a tiny bit more force then my mokooo mod but it's not crippling or a hassle by any means. Now mind you I haven't used the included rda but I'd assume that's when the plunger and amount of holes on the bottom of the rda comes into a problem. I mostly wanted to post to say yes BF rda's work and work well! Now I haven't been using for a long period of time either so I obviously haven't ran into any problems so far. Right now I'm using my NarDA with a single coil, 26g 7 wraps around a 7/64 bit ohms out to around a .90 and it ramps right up. Reading the included book apparently the button will flash if there's a short, or a too low of a build, something I haven't seen anyone mention the button does light up when pressed and vaping. Comes with the usual kanger stuff, little blue screwdriver, USB cable, extra bottle, extra coil for the rda, screws and little coils. The magnet bottom plate that keeps the squonk bottle in isn't as flimsy or loose as it seems, I tried shaking and everything and it stayed. But could pop off if not careful in the pocket, but the bottle is pretty sturdy and isn't going anywhere regardless, it's there too to also keep the mod level on your desk or what have you, without it it would be lopsided. The battery cover is also kinda neat, it unscrews to allow the battery in and out but the middle screws up to sure there's no battery rattle, I'd assume if there was a problem the least you could do is back the middle part out and it cuts the circuit, still doesn't make it any easier to get the battery out fully in case of failure. It's solid, it's small, comfortable in the hand, under 50 bucks, and a little beater squonk mod that fits nicely in the pocket. All in all I'm perfectly happy with my purchase and don't regret it one bit! Do I recommend it? Yes and no, yes because right now I love it, and no because I haven't fully spent hard time with it. If your any bit interested, I'd say go for it. I'm sure everyone in here has spent way more on a piece of gear and been disappointed, this won't dent your wallet in case of a let down. Feel free to ask any questions you've been wanting to know and I'll be happy to answer to the best of my knowledge. Cheers!

Any problem with your other BF RDA's sitting flush?
Nope, funny thing is all 3 rda's I have that are BF have a decent amount of pin sticking out of the bottom. I feel like the 510 is spring loaded yet it didn't move when I pushed down on it.

Thank you, I was waiting for you to comment. Happy I finally got some much needed insight into this mod. It may not be perfect per say, but it's definitely good for what it is.

The thing I'd be most interested in is how it squonks with 1ml or less in the bottle...
Give me a little bit I'm working on that as we speak lol. I purposely didn't fill the bottle, and speaking of the bottle, it's pretty cheap. It seems to get marks on it very easily, I lightly ran my fingernail down it and it left a nice streak. So we will see, but I'll come back once it's lower.

that brings up a good question - replace-ability of that bottle.
It's a unique push-in cap, right? But is the neck same size as any other (available) squonk-bottles? Or will there be bottles available as a part somewhere?... Not expecting anyone knows - just wondering.
:)

Once it's time to refill I'll check this also, I'm about at the 2nd line from the bottom so it shouldn't be long. Unfortunately I only have the bottles that came with my mokooo and my svapiamo, but they are 2 different kinds so maybe that'll help figure it out. The stock bottle isn't horrible, but there's no telling what would happen to them after constant hard abuse either.

So how much slower is the atty it comes with to feed than regular bf-atties with single feedhole?
Also does it suck the excess back in like it should?
Kinda wishing KT would also come up with replacement decks with only single feedhole.
I checked the other deck and it is pretty slow to feed just cause it's got so many places and holes to go to instead of just the one. With just the one hole from a different BF rda it's night and day, it really is. And yes it drains pretty well, you even get the noise with it.

I wonder how you got your hands on the DripBox already. {Jealous} -Mine that I pre-ordered has not even shipped out yet! :(:facepalm::facepalm::facepalm::facepalm::facepalm::facepalm::facepalm::facepalm::facepalm::facepalm:
I honestly have no clue how the shop got them in, but they pulled them instantly and weren't allowed to sell them, not sure why I didn't ask and I wish I did. But the owner still sold me the one I wanted. It wasn't till a little bit later I was aware no one was selling these yet. Trust me I'm no one special lol I'm not a reviewer, just in the right place I guess.

I think the "Release Date" on the units is Mar/30/2016... so vendors MUST wait until then to begin sales/delivery of Pre-orders.

Cheers

Did anyone find out if it has a step-down in it that limits to 60 watts?
A .2 ohm build on an unregulated device should be firing around 88 watts, and .3 ohm would hit about 58 watts.
Sure, with a battery that has no sag under load, in mod made entirely of super-conducting materials. :rolleyes:
