Any of these BF RBAs would look and function beast on a pdib.

From left: Aero BF (dragonflyEcigs.com) Chalice (markbugs.com / sold out); REO RM2 (REOsmods.com)

The cyclone (Indy vapor shop) is my favorite at the moment, all those are in a drawer :)

^ not yet. It's too rare to sell.

Lol I know.... I was trying though! You can't blame a guy for trying! Hahahahahhajahaha. :)

But seriously the next time I see one, I'm buying it. I don't care about the price, the fiancée already gave me the go ahead! :)

Ok, if you really want one that bad I'll sell ya mine for $400. It's drilled to 1/16" though but does come with 2 extra screws that are like 5 bucks each and take about 3 weeks to get :). Also only unflavored nic run thru it so no worries about getting rid of nasty flavors :)

I'd sell it for that much for sure. I'll regret it after the fact too cause its so highly sought after. My advice, save $340 of it and get a cyclone :)

Watch, right after you buy it, mark bugs will announce that he's making another run :)

Here's a pic of her with her clothes off to fantasize about :)

But right now it sits in a drawer cause I like building the cyclone so much more. I like stuff simple but I dont compromise on vape quality either.

An adjustable air flow top cap for iGo W, Nimbus and Helios…. just saying, this type of thing is available for those that like "big bore" vaping.

Just ordered one. Thanks uke!!!

I don't really care about the big bore thing; I just like the afc aspect of it. Plus, for 10 more bucks you get an Igo-w base to go with it. I'll report back after trying it out...

so if you were in the same situation, you would rather buy 4 cyclones over 1 chalice? i mean we are talking about the same price of $400 lol

could be. most of those from a garage sale for a buck or so apiece. all or most of it looks like fasttech stuff.

Just wanted to let you guys know, I torched last nite, and tried to make a glass cover for the little era clone out of curiosity... and like a dufus, forgot to make an airhole first when I tried to dome the atomizer base with a section of sealed tubing. Stuck on the molten glass... and... the glass SUCKED on to the edge and formed an instant vaccum. I had the thing mounted on an ego-C so I'd have a handle, so here I'm holding an ego C with a 2000 degree F molten blob of glass VACCUMED onto the unit (sides only, or I'd have lost the silicone insulator), heating the battery in my hand very very fast.

I SMASHED the glass off as fast as I could with the first large heavy thing I could get my hands on, heavy glass wheel cutters, and RAN for a water bucket and stuck the atomizer part in the water, trying not to get the battery I'm still holding in my hand wet. Good grief, that scared the crap out of me. Soon as the atomizer was cool enough, I grabbed Kevlar gloves and unscrewed it, threw it in the water, and put the battery/Ego-C across the other end of the porch in case it blew up anyway.

What a MESS I made... there was shattered glass all over the place.

The good news is... this is very good stainless steel... at that temp, aluminum would have melted out and left pock marks all over the thing. And we are talking about a unit that's only what? 15mm in diameter, that just got all its threads vaccumed onto 2000 degrees F of molten glass for at least 5 seconds (long enough to melt through a LOT of stainless actually).

Needless to say, my glass work was done for the night. Crazy thing is... it's still firing the coil that was on it... the 2 pins are a bit scorched, but I checked to see if they fused to the posts, and while they were a slight bit deformed last nite, I screwed it in and out a few times to make sure the threading still work... bit stiff, but still work.

The bad news... I took 1 o-ring off before I did this, and forgot the 2nd one... it's gone. So it's being sent to you, pdif, with 1 oring only, and quite a little adventure:). I am not planning to try making a glass cover again for a very long time. The cap/drip tip are fine, never went near the torch.

Could you not mount a 510 adaptor in say, some wood or metal in future i.e. nothing electrical?

I'm glad you are ok, i think that would have scared the living daylights out of me too.

T

Well, this was a silly wild hair idea I had... wasn't really planned... I'm still a bit shaken actually. What a dummy! LOL!

You can almost get 7 BF cyclones for 400. I'll let this picture tell you what my choice would be :)

Yep, my chalice rides top center of my RBA collection box but it ain't on a mod. I'm sure I'll use it again but...

I loathe those screws. You can't use a screw driver on em or you'll fracture a tooth. Been there. 10 screws = $55 from Romania. Turning them by fingertip bothers me.


And the thickest wire you can roll in it is 29 ga. 30 is the easiest to use (remember, on these latest run of chalices, the wire is the thread - the posts have no thread) to turn the screws but I prefer the amount of wraps I get out of, say, 28 gauge.

It's an amazing atomizer from an engineering / build quality, material selection (titanium and super thick SS) aesthetic appeal, vape and just plain "I'm cool, I have a chalice" standpoint.

But I get just as good a vape off a $43 RM2 and a $60 cyclone.

for me the cyclone is the best option cause there's no brass and the only simpler RBA to build that I've had is the RM2.

Aw damn. I just realized that it's gonna take allot more than a chalice to make me cool :)

It's yours if you want it but I wouldn't pay more than 200 for one. That's just me though :)

Straight talk from SuperX….
I've found that Mark Bugs' stuff, while being "elite" for a reason, is not the reason that makes sense for me; $$$ notwithstanding, I find all of his gear is very finessed, and for that type of vaping.
I've had some of his (Ti Genesis Wand, and Ti Wizards Apprentice)…
I like more rugged device/accessories, and even though i imagine a dripper (Chalice) may be pretty durable, still…
