I have not owned a mod that didn't look goofy in my hands. I have the hands of a 10 year old girl. I'm just over 5 feet unfortunately, although people tell me that I don't look like I'm short. lol. I definitely don't look like a little person or like I'm disproportionate. I have never felt singled out for my height or as though people noticed my height like they would notice boys that were just a few inches shorter than me. So in that way, I am pretty lucky I guess. I JUST made the height requirement to look normal in the 21st century. lol. But yeah, my small hands means most mods look big and goofy. Including my Provari Mini. Its HUGE. With a Ming drip tip on a vivi nova, in 18350 mode, my middle finger is just a quarter inch longer than my provari mini w/ tank. lol. So you can get a picture of how small my hands are. So that is why when I think of the Silver Bullet, or the lavatube, or any 18650 mods, I think FUN! I don't think "I need & want that to look normal" I think "Wow! Thats a huge freaking mod!" haha. So I think the Green is a great color for me. Its one of my favorite colors which is why my room is slime green :p I also ordered a slime green vase drip tip so I'm excited to see how it looks on top of a tank on my new SBullet. :D I did tell Altsmoke that I would rather have the chrome button, and that I may have to get the black replaced one day. That would be a nice future goal to have to upgrade my Silver Bullet. But for now, I'm sure the black button will be cool and it will match the new black vivi nova I just bought for it.. So I'm hoping it'll be a cool match. I'm sure either button will look good with the tank and the green drip tip :) Cant wait.

This will be my FIRST variable wattage mod. 4 years into vaping and I'm just now getting a SB + Kick LOL. Instead of already having the SB with 18650s and 6 volt batteries like everyone else.. I've been busy saving up for the Silver Bullet in the first place! I can't wait to get this thing. Finally! After 4 years of going nuts looking at different mods.. I've truly just always been filling the void that opened when I bought that Bolt instead of a Silver Bullet. lol.

Nice one!

Hey, I was wondering if someone could help me with rewiring a mod? I don't know what kind of wires to use or where to get them. I tried looking at MV but they didn't seem to have any. Would Radioshack be a good spot to try? I tried eBay but so far I couldn't figure out what keywords to use. All I can find is USB cables and uninsulated wires, and wires that look like they'd work but they have ports at the end and I dont know if they'd work. What IS a wire? Isnt it just insulated copper wire? Would that work? Is a USB cable basically a microchip at the end of copper wire? I don't get it!!!

Dont know for sure but I will say the SB has the best button placement and feel of any of mine. Including my provari. Just fits my clumsey hands really good and feels right when I use my thumb for push on.

That's another thing I like about the SB. I can put it in my vape gear case when I go out and not worry about it firing off by itself. A couple of my other mods with protruding buttons have fired off in the case, so I've learned to unscrew the atty/tank slightly, before putting them in the bag. I know I can just turn them off or take the batts out, but a quick spin of the tank does the trick just as well.
