SXK Billet box...

[lupinehorror]

just about done with my second bb.
did another build. it's reading a 0.12 coil at 0.06.
hard reboot. it detects new coil at 0.12. i click + to accept.
hit the fire button it's reading 0.06 again.
grr.

Maybe you’re building too low for the BB. The minimum resistance for kanthal is 0.16.

Really sounds like a short, but I imagine you've covered all the bases.

Do you have one of those 510 tools to test out a regular build deck with?

A couple other suggestions.
Might be a dodgy connection between the key and the chimney. Does it change if you really tighten down the key?

Also, dna processors have this property where they "learn"resistance as you go. I think it's called refinement. That's probably not it, but can't hurt to mention it.

Yes, their secret sauce. Only ever mentioned once on page 7 of their datasheets, BUT I don't think that's the issue at all. TrollDragon IMHO had a great thought, or even trying a different bridge

Well after a couple months without my billet box in use as my SXK Xeta snapped a clamp. My YFTK Xeta arrived incredibly late. And can definitely confirm the quality is much better than the SXK, looks and feels better made, especially with an included extra post. Also definitely more room for a 3mm coil compared to SXK which looked very cramped for anything more than a 2.5mm Happy days and another recommendation for YFTK.

*Unrelated side note; I got the Caliburn for the long wait/holidays to deliver nicotine, this thing is very good, great flavour and vapour production for the size of it, and only two pods in over a month which I only had to change to a new pod due to flying. Also tried the Aegis Boost and that wasn't really for me at all, terrible battery life.

I had an order sitting in my cart at 3F already. Added this to it and it's on the way.

Please let us know the review

 

[lupinehorror]

thanks for your suggestions all. putting it to one side for the moment but will revisit.
@TrollDragon do have that tool, cheers.

Does anyone had a sugestion for a good mtl rba? Sxk version. Im usually do an mtl vape with the dvarw rta. Its just the right mtl (for me) not too loose, not to tight. Thanks

No xtra post in my YFTK

 

[lupinehorror]

all.
i'm not wasting any more time with RBAs for the moment.
could anyone recommend adaptors for stock coils that fir the borro?
i have the north bridge for nord coils but haven't had any luck with the nautilus one i have (may have the wrong coils and they're a bit high in resistance anyway).
think i have the kanger adaptor too but wasn't fond of it.
cheers.
EDIT
nvm. went ahead and got another north bridge

Did you get yours from FT or 3F,and how long ago did you get it?
I got my first one from FT and it didn't have the extra post,but i've gotten 2 from 3F and they both had it.My one from FT was right after they were released though,so that may have been why.

 

[gsmit1]

Oh yeah. I keep forgetting. I got 2 black and one of the clear SXK Xeta barrels. I've tried one black one and one clear one. The black one works fine. No change in resistance and no change in anything else either.

However, with the clear one, the thing that I greatly feared has come upon me. It's makes no connection and doesn't fire at all. You can see the tiniest gap between the chimney and the post.

Of course this should be easily fixable by lightly taking a hair off the top of the barrel. With maybe some fine emery cloth. I haven't done it yet, but it should work.

That's a known issue. Must be careful when tightening. It's avoidable once you're aware of it.

Got mine from 3F about a week/week 1/2 ago

I've been using the Boxxer clone for a while now,and really like it,but hate all the leaking,so i finally bit the bullet and bought an authentic Boxxer V2.I got a great deal on it used,got it for $55 shipped,but it needs new glass,which i thought no big deal,it'll be cheap haha,i was wrong.Apparently the only place to get glass for the V2 is from Odis,the price isn't bad $9.99 for 3 pieces,but the shipping is almost $20.Anybody know a place in the U.S. that has either the glass or the unbreakable panels for these before i order from Odis?

That's odd then.I've gotten 2 from 3F recently,the most recent was maybe 3 weeks ago,and they both had the spare.It's a shame if they stopped adding it,it is nice to have that extra bit of a backup.

Not in the US but Drip and vape and Ecigarettes.ca has them. Also ask in the BB forums.
