I thought my BSB was awsome, but...

I thought my Black Silver Bullet was the best thing in the world. Sure it has a bunch of nicks and scratches, but has never let me down.
BUT THEN....
Today in the mail, I recieved my brand new Silver SB. GOOD GOD!!! This thing is BEAUTIFUL! I also really love the felt bag it came in, the new vent hole design, and it also has a copper colored spring, which my other BSB doesnt have. I'm going to run my beat up black one with a black LR atty, and black drip tip, at 3.7 for my daily PV at my rough and tumble job, and this new silver one at 6V, with a stainless atty, and stainless T tip, when I want to look good.... haha Actually, its so nice, I might just sit around and polish it, and not take it out of the house.. lol

What does this look like?

Does anyone have any pictures or details on the new vent design?

I've been waiting aaages for my BSB from iVapour Elixir -- I ordered on the 16th of April -- and I hope I get one with the new design. The lack of venting that SBs seem to have worries me a little.

The SB's have always been vented. The internal bushings used to have an edge shaved off of them for the vent. Now the bushings have a drilled hole in them. There is no change to the outside appearance of the unit.

Thanks Melody. I had read brief musings here and there on SB vents, but wasn't sure.

Well..except for the subliminal message in the silver polishing that tells you to tell your friends about it...but other than that not much has changed

Bushings? There's some sort of internal crankshaft with main bearings in there?

I must have an anomaly, then. My bushing is completely round and it doesn't have any holes in it. My BB had the shaved edge to it, but not my poor old BSB.

The older siver colored contact has a blow through(solder) style vent. When I switched to the copper contact is when the visible vent was added to the bushing.
