First off I would like to thank you for the excellent service. I've just got my new SB last night. It is awesome and was deliver to rural Minnesota extremely fast. I am currently using it with two tenergy lifepro 750mah rcr123a 3.0V batterys. I Also have some ultrafire 18650 protected batterys for 3.7V. My question is how does a person tell when it is time to recharge these. I'm too used to the batterys with the dummy light on them.

Hey Rob, quick question about the SB switch, what does this mean?
"Switch: 200,000 clicks electrical/1,000,000 mechanical."
Is the switch mechanical or electrical or both?:confused:
Both.
The switch has mechanical contacts, similar to those in a relay. The connection to the switch is soldered with wires to complete the circuit.
The electrical clicks is the minimum number of connections the contacts can make before they are worn out. The mechanical clicks are the minimum number of time the switch actuator can be depressed before the spring and mechanical components will no longer work.

errr, ummm, I can't seem to contact you guys. I actually chatted with someone (Rob I think) on your site a few days ago. Next day I had questions and used the send-a-msg feature. then emailed rob. haven't been able to get a response. What is your normal turnaround time on inquiries?

I'd like to get an order in today if possible.

Couple of questions:

1) lo and behold, my Sirius Stiletto 2 wall adaptor is 5v - 2.5 amp (none of the other dozens of wall warts I have were right). It has this pretty small round plug on the device end of the cord. How do I find out if it's going to work or if I need a plug size converter?

2) What is the "complete passthru"? Is that a complete solution? just missing the battery bottom part of the device? Prod desc says 1x BB top -- I assume that's the button and 510 adaptor? 1x BB bottom -- I assume that's the PT bottom? the part that would hold the battery on the regular unit?

3) What's the point of the USB cord? I have been unable to find any sort of USB port that supplies 2 amps... I have a monster DELL XPS laptop and the USB port is rated at 500mA

So... I'd like a portable unit and the passthru option. I should order the BB and then just the passthru bottom? hopefully utilize my Sirius wall wart or get the Radio Shack one?

Looks like you're out of batteries... If I have batteries on my order will that delay the whole order? Recommendation on the best battery and portable charger and where to get it?

help me... I have OCD and I'm ready to make an impulse buy.
I grew up in Ohio (Gambier/Mt Vernon, Morris Rd. in Columbus, OSU) will that help?

I haven't found any email from you, just was looking through all emails over the past few days. And I do recall talking to you because you mentioned your laptop down below ;)

I'd like to get an order in today if possible.

I have no idea, Chadiepoo?

2) What is the "complete passthru"? Is that a complete solution? just missing the battery bottom part of the device? Prod desc says 1x BB top -- I assume that's the button and 510 adaptor? 1x BB bottom -- I assume that's the PT bottom? the part that would hold the battery on the regular unit?

The Complete Passthru is the top portion with the switch (standard 510) and the bottom passthru with the cord. Yes.

3) What's the point of the USB cord? I have been unable to find any sort of USB port that supplies 2 amps... I have a monster DELL XPS laptop and the USB port is rated at 500mA

Works on my computer, barely but works the best with a 2a USB Adapter, we will be carrying these shortly after the holiday. The person I was going to order from put me hold until then..

So... I'd like a portable unit and the passthru option. I should order the BB and then just the passthru bottom? hopefully utilize my Sirius wall wart or get the Radio Shack one?

Yes you would order the passthru portion and The BB, to make a complete kit. Some people wanted the BB PT to use just the radioshack switch to vape at different voltages. So we set that unit up for the few that inquired.

Looks like you're out of batteries... If I have batteries on my order will that delay the whole order? Recommendation on the best battery and portable charger and where to get it?

Yes we have them.

I'm seriously considering getting a BSB. I'm currently vaping with a 3.7v Fog Log that I made myself. I like it alot, except for getting harrassed when using it in public, because for some silly reason I guess the copper makes it look like some sort of drug pipe. I'm personally irritated and offended by the remarks so I've set out to find an "appropriate" mod that will put an end to the BS.

I'm interested in the BSB, both for it's usage of the 18650 and the recessed nature of the switch. I'm also interested in doing a height/weight comparison against the Fog Log to see how much benefit I might gain there too.

So to recap...my questions are:

1) Will it use the UltraFire 18650 3000mAh battery? (I've heard that it's slightly larger?)

2) What is the exact height of the unit without atty/cart?

3) What is the gram weight of the unit without the battery/cart/atty?

Sorry..I've read and read and done searches to try and find answers to these specific questions..but not much luck. Thanks in advance for you help and hope to become a very happy customer soon.

Yes it will hold the 3000mAh battery

4.35inches

3) What is the gram weight of the unit without the battery/cart/atty?
IIRC it is 6oz with battery, will be close to the same as the fog log you are currently using

My answers are in red :)

I just got my BSB and I love it. Its my favorite mod so far by far. Well built and no misfires or thread issues on the adapter. I would definitly recommend the SB to anyone. If you want to take it to the next level you can add the Double Barrel top for what I like to call extreme vaping. I got one off of the classifieds and should be here tomorrow. I cant wait.
