IMHO...The S.B. needs a slight tweak

Ah, ok, they didnt have them as of about a week ago (or maybe it was the parts I didnt see).

Yea, any replacement parts I will be ordering from Rob, I wouldve ordered the TTank parts from him, he just didnt have them.

The only part you would need to order from TW then would be the small adapter piece to allow the tank atty to connect to the 510.

Now, if I could order a replacement for the SB that had a built in connector designed for the tank, that would be great (or if Rob could design an adapter to fit that is smaller than the TW adapter, that would work to).

Well, I dont know if that adapter will fit the atties Rob is selling, maybe Ill order one to make sure, BUT, I can verify for a fact that the atties, tank carts, and adapter I recommended from TW will in fact fit the SB as I am currently using this setup.

There is one more negative I forgot to mention about these tank atties, flavor is significantly weaker than normal 510 atties so I would recommend if you are cooking up your own fluid to use the 60/40 instead of 80/20 ratio (TW sells a large container of non flavored ejuice with Nic already in the liquid for around $160ish. Use 60% non-flavored eliquid and 40% flavor (I use pure vanilla extract oil from the spices isle at my local grocery store which is around $10 for a bottle big enough to last 3 months). Mix the two and shake well for 30 seconds or so and then you should be good to go).

When I have a chance, Ill post some pictures and possibly a quick video on how to assemble and fill, but it is really simple to do.

I just saw this a couple of minutes ago and I am intrigued...

They are called the Map Tank from Clouds of Vapor for $30. It is an acrylic 5ml tank that has a modified cartomizer and for the price, it looks pretty darn good.
(MAP Tank Mods)

A decent Youtube review of one of these on a Silver Bullet.
YouTube - cloudsofvapor.com MAP tank

From what I have seen, the most common complaint is a burnt taste but there may be a way to fix that as mentioned in the review (I watched 3 different reviews on the Map Tank).

Having to use a syringe to fill one of these is a deal breaker for me personally. The first problem is I have never been able to find a syringe that works well for eliquid (I guess my eliquid is extra thick) and I never can get the syringe to 'suck' in the liquid. The second reason a syringe is a deal breaker is, in many states, having a syringe is illegal unless prescribed by a doctor. And even if it is legal to have one, it is at a minimum questionable by police officers should they find one. I already have a difficult time proving to DOT officers my ecig isnt some sort of new fangled drug.

But they might be an option for you and they are def. cheaper than the Ego-T system I mentioned (however, I am not sure if they come with any sort of mouth piece so you may have to order a 5 pack of mouthpieces if you dont have any spare ones sitting around).

Availability also appears to be a problem...

I would def order one for myself if I didnt need a syringe...

You don't need a syringe, you just take the top cap off and pour in the liquid. It's really not a problem, I have a BSB sitting on the desk in front of me now that I cleaned and filled last night. It looks looks like it was made with the BSB in mind. The problem with the MAP tank is getting one!
