WOW, I dodged a bullet...a anti aircraft bullet.
I just went from Clever Me...to Dumb Ahole.
Here's the story...
I've been using the BXR for some time, and loving it....its basically all i've been using the last two weeks. Fitted out with the Ambition mods Bishop 3 Boro bridge. Its a superb bridge....silent airflow with two air inlets at the bottom.

I like it without the cover plate...gives me better grip...yeah i'm weird like that;)
Problem with Bishop 3 is the back airflow isn't that efficient inside a Boro device...don't understand why they designed it that way. The back inlet can be blocked with a plug provided...but I want two inlets...it works better.
Soooo I drilled a hole in the back of the BXR aligned with the back airflow of the Bishop 3...and it made a huge difference. Instantly no more condensation or the occational juice leakage.
As I said, i've been using it like this and Loving it...but I was planning to cut a slot at the back to...for better airflow to the other boro bridges. It stops the dreaded condensation.
Here's the mark where I would've put the slot

This morning I received a PM from Saint @Pigs informing me to be careful not to drill holes in the back of the BXR...as the power button wire is inside the back panel.
Right here is the bullet I missed...by a few millimeters :shock:

Damn...who would've thought they would drill (or cast) a micro hole inside a wall to run a wire ???
Anyway....a Huge Thank You my Friend.
I can get up now, as my wobbly legs are starting to function again.


Wow did you get lucky !!


As Maxwell Smart used to say...


Yep ! :lol:

    Well it seems i'm on the blessed list lately....;)
    I had a issue with my Aspire Prime X about a year ago...I guess. It started acting irregular...draining the battery at lightspeed and then shutting itself off. Tried a few things, including taking apart to see if maybe a wire was pinching...but nothing worked. Eventually I threw it in the dust bin...only to take it out later. I loved it so much I couldn't leave it there....so I just put it away.
    Yesterday I took it out, put a battery in and tried it out...and it worked beautifully. I've used it non stop since then, and its been performing flawlessly :wub:
    I love this little gem...!

    Maybe I should send you the Centaurus bf that quit firing on me. With that kind of luck it might start working again.
