official silver bullet complaint thread

[HappyCamper]

I have a complaint.......... It got here faster than my batteries!

I have been looking at it on my counter for the third day now, shining it up, seeing what color atty looks best, oops...needs another shine... you get the picture! I'm getting really impatient, this is pure torture. It was cold this morning... so I put a blankie around it.

I ordered from Dealextreme, realized how long it would take,
then ordered from hightechdealz (it is in Texas right now according to my tracking #).
Now I am stuck with 2 charger/batt sets of the same thing... AND I STILL HAVE TO STARE AT IT ALL WEEKEND!!!
Screw it, I am going to hunt down some disposables!!!

Toss it in the microwave... that's what I do. Doubles as a mitt warmer for those cold days.

Major issue here folks, how the heck do you stealth vape with this thing? Seriously it is impossible...
Hmpf I will have to use my under performing stock 510 for that. But trust me there could be much worse issues to have.

It's great for stealth vaping in a burning building or a forest fire.

You can stealth vape with the BB

I'm a relative newbie here and waiting for my BSB on "preorder".

Why the heck is STEALTH Vaping all about?

Sounds like a person that vapes constantly with short breaks for eating/sleeping/bathroom breaks.

Vaping while the boss isn't looking. Much easier with a tiny cloud. Your description is pretty close, though, LOL.

Also a smaller mod, like the BB at 3" wouldn't be as noticeable as the SB cause of size

Ok, I do have a complaint, or maybe a concern. These things are legal, but how much of a chance do I really have of making it through an airport with my BSB in hand? It looks like a detonator!

Hmmm. I travel alot and I would be worried - never tried it yet. lol - I can see how it could be miscontrued as a detonator. They seized my Bic lighter a few years ago. I was psst. If they took my PV, I would be livid. Better you hide a cheapo e-cig for your carry on and really hide your PV in your luggage just in case.

Air travel with an e-cig is absolutely a non-issue. Just put your juice in a zip-lock and put it through the x-ray separately, like any other liquid.

I've vaped on airplanes quite a few times. Just a couple of weeks ago, I flew round trip first class (free upgrades) on American. I used my BB and didn't particularly hide it and no one, including the flight attendant, seemed to even notice. FWIW American says no e-cigs, but they bury it down deep in the list of non-approved devices.

One time, as I picked up my BB from the x-ray bin, a TSA agent asked me about it and wanted to know if it works. I answered her questions and it was a very pleasant exchange.

I would be more concerned about a passenger freaking out at the sight of a SB!

That's good to know PawPaw! Did you travel overseas with yours?

No. Not yet. Sorry.

Went to see a movie last night. My husband had his SB in a flannel jacket pocket. He bent his head over the mouthpiece of his 801 atty and exhaled into a lifted side of it. The theater was almost full and no one was the wiser.

You know for flying I'd just put it in the tray at xray. I used to have to do that with the removable faceplate from my stereo. They would always ask me to push the buttons or turn it on. There was no power to it as it was powered by my vehicle battery, so nothing. If you're asked to push the button or turn it on. Nothing will happen as the vapor won't come out without a little help. Once again my 2 pennies worth.

 

[ohiomelody]

The way I "stealth vape" is by holding in the vape for 3-4 seconds, then there is no vapor upon exhale

SB BB excellent units

Complaint and a wish (for real!)
The Battery charger I bought from Alt has one tray that launches the battery and will not stay. Emailed then two weeks ago and no answer back
My wish is that they offer anodized bodies. Painted aluminum seem like a sin to me. I wish for a hard anodized SB, a HSB if you will

Oh, other than that, I love my SB
