It's only been 4 months since I started vaping so no expert by any means. My first E-Cig was the Joye Super eGo 900mAh and to be honest I could have just stayed right there and been happy. Both eGo batteries are gone now due to mishandling and charging improperly. They were replaced by 2 1000mAh eGo-T batteries and 1 eGo-T 650mAh battery from Health Cabin. Since then I've upgraded to PureSomkers Prodigy v3.1 which is by far one of the top PV's on the market. But after it's all said and done this is no longer a quit smoking project for me it's turned into a hobby. I am now the proud of a brand new Chrome Silver Bullet! and now I see why everyone says it's a must have in a Vapers arsenal. This bad boy is truly a work of art as well as throat hitting fog machine. I didn't even wait to get home to try it out. I just put a LR 510 Atomizer that has been used, abused, cleaned, and used again on it and BAM! WTF! the atty's vaping better than brand new lol
I'm using a AW IC 18650 2900mAh 3.7v battery from RTD vapor. The LR atty is a Joye 510 from Vapor Cast Store and the e-juice is primevaping's PV4. Thanks AltSmoke :)

Just recived the LR IK io6 atomizer 1.8Ω & HV IKV io6 atomizer 3.5Ω from IkenVape. I will be testing them with the Silver Bullet & Prodigy v3.1 and since I finally purchased 2 AW ICR 123a's I'll also for the first time experience vaping at 6v As you can see I'm pretty excited, I mean this vaping thing is crazy. My next toy will most likely be either a Box Mod or a Pass-through, any recommendations will be greatly appreciated.

SB is what got me to finally quit smoking when other regular e cigs failed. the whole runnin out of batteries every hour or two got old FAST and i'd end up buyin a pack of cigs.

my only gripe about the SB is that when i twist the top and bottom pieces together all the way it sometimes doesnt fire.. and i have to untwist it a bit for it to fire. i emailed altsmoke about this but was simply ignored =[ is this somthing all SB's or did i get the lemon?

also when the batteries get lower, the hits get softer. i wish it was at a set voltage all the time and when the battery cant keep it up it just stops working or tells u.

At first with my SB, I thought there were button issues similar to yours, but I soon realized it was user error due to the button break in period(conjecture). Looking back I don't think I was depressing the button all the way, and the button was a little stiff. Now the button is flawless and I never have issues.

As for the battery issues, yes they lose voltage. The answer to this is to use Aw IMR's these pump out the current better than anything out there. Sometimes I am glad when the voltage drops just a bit with these because with certain juices it can almost burn them at 4.2v (~ 4v under load) hot off the charger. With the IMR there will be a slight difference in vapor over time, but still very good. At 4-5 hours with trustfires, I swap them out because they just don't put out the current.

I love my SV-SB, and the Silver vein finish is indestructible, and with my work and hobbies it has definitely been put through it's paces. The lack of electronic features is what I like about it. It is a work horse that you can run over with a truck and it still works with out fail. With all of the atties and cartos out there at every resistance, the SB should be all anyone should need. All it takes is a little math and you can figure out what wattage level is your favorite.
Now don't get me wrong this is a hobby for me as well; and ,need and want, are two very different things.Just sayin' that the SB gets you from point A to point B reliably

Do you like the (AW IMR) batteries better than (AW IC)
