SXK Billet box...

[Zaryk]

Yes it's fine for DL but 70 watts is too high really as it's a single battery mod.

It's best to get the dna 60 version unless you go for the authentic (also dna 60) and then you're limited by that and the length of time a single batts going to last.

I direct lung with my BB on the vapeshell RBA with a SS 0.5 or 0.6 ohm coil at 30 watts and the DL vape is superb....

I think you would be fine at this kind of level and there are lots of RBA's available for DL vaping....It's worth it...best vape i've ever had personally

Thanks.

I only take my .2 ohm coils that high on mechs. On my regulated I tend to stay in the 50w range.

How about juice capacity with the rebuildable bridges and what kind of drip tip?

Aah yes sorry.....4.5 mls ish of juice depending on RBA type and they take a 510 no problem....

Get one you won't regret it

Yes well it's definitely not one where you would be building less than 1.0 ohm really as the battery would just vanish in seconds

I'm assuming you're trying to vape a quite low ohm coil on it??

Not really to low, but low enough to get a nice warm vape out of it. It seems like Sxk increased puff time to 20 sec's on the Bantam to compasate for the lower wattage limit. I rather get the higher wattage with lower puff time. Either way the battery will drain fast so its just a matter of preference.

This 18350 fad needs to move on.

4.5ml (ish) puts me off quite a bit. I go through up to 20mls a day. 4-5 refills per day isn't something I really look forward to. I refill my current mods twice a day (morning & evening, using 8-10ml squonk bottles) and usually don't have to carry anything extra with me when I go out and enjoy that fact.

I guess if start slowing down some this might work out for me. But as things are currently, I think I'll have to stick with my current setups.

Thanks for the info, I appreciate it. I will revisit this mod when I start to slow down on my vaping for sure.

Maybe use it as a high mg salt nic set up. A lot of the BB crowd do the same and there are a lot of tootle puffers too for both devices....

What are the ups and downs of using coil heads on the Bb other than not having to build a coil?

I love rebuildables, but for me none comes close to the eleaf 0.6 mesh coil head. The only real "down" of this coil for me, is it sucks juice. Don't really mind that as I get fantastic flavor with it...and for me it's all about flavor.
One thing about this coil. When I didn't use it in TC and I got a slight burn when it hit empty, that burnt taste carried on with the next fill. I had to discard that coil. That don't happen with the EUC coil.

I too go through 20ml per day and it's super simple. Slide window down, squirt juice in, slide window up. Done. And unlike my squonkers, no leaks. Tip it upside down or even on its side, no problem. In fact, I haven't used my squonkers since using my BBs. And I too am a restricted DL vaper.

Agreed! So much cleaner, easier and quicker to fill a boro than most other systems and I love that I can lie my BB down on it's side when I want - no problem. My squonk mods are all gathering dust now too. I go through less than 10ml a day so one boro refill on the go not an issue for me.

I don't have any leaks with my squonks. They lay on their side in my lap or on a desk very frequently too. I don't use protruding squonk pins so all the juice retracts into the bottle. I never really had problems with leaks when refilling squonk bottles or installing them.

I get that the action is easy to refill, but it would cause me to have to carry juice on me, as well as my mod. I have grown quite happy not refilling but twice a day, and not carrying extra bottles of juice everywhere I go.

So you never over squonked in your life? Amazing! I dunno, I guess I did like once or twice a month.

Your still vaping the same juice and using the same refill bottle, so I don't see the difference. Nor am I pulling out my squonk bottle or unscrewing the RDA to refill either.

The huge benefit for me with BBs is the small compact size. Which is weird for me because I normally don't care about how huge it is. But the size of these are about the same size as a pack of smokes. So the same place you carried your smokes, you can likely carry your BB. I guess BBs are not for everyone. But I wished I started with them first than all of the other vaping crap I have used over the years. Then again, the time has never been better to get involved with BBs since the options are so plentiful nowadays.

I do over squonk a new rda a few times, but on an rda I used for more than a week, I dont have any issues.

I don't use refill bottles, and I don't pack a bottle of juice with me outside of my house on normal trips out. If I get a BB, I will start having to pack a bottle with me which I would prefer to avoid. That is the point I am getting at. Everything else sounds good.

The size is a selling point for me (and one reason I was looking into them) since it is only a little bigger than the squonk mods already use. It is taller and little wider than my daily driver mechs, but the depth is thinner.

True. Juice capacity and rda flavor . Why squonks are so good

All my squonkers the silicone bottles absorb the flavors. And no matter how often you clean the bottles, it still absorbs. And even if you use the same flavoring in the bottle, the flavoring absorbed starts tasting stale and ruins the fresh juice in the bottle. I suppose that is why some toss out the bottle after a few months and replace them.

Then inside of the RDA builds up crud. No surprise to vaping whatsoever. Although squonking also sucks that crud back into the squonk bottle which ruins the rest of the flavoring. Worse if it caramelizes.

So I dunno, maybe I am just a flavor snob or something. But the flavor might be good at first, but it won't last. I got so tired of it when I was squonking, I went back to dripping which has none of these problems.

I never let any rda (dripper or bf) build up crud but squonk bottles corrupting flavour and turning juice stale is why I shifted away from squonks to the new generation of RTAs then discovered the BB. Haven't looked back. Got a shelf full of squonks gathering dust

I was browsing the Vicious Ant website today and came across a new mod they released recently.

This looks like a perfect compromise between BB and squonk mod, for me at least. It has the BB style AIO thing going on (rebuildabke deck, option for MTL or DL), but has a larger capacity squonk bottle. It has a DNA 75C, so that's kind of nice. Still not really BB style, but kind of a hybrid between that and a squonk mod. Price is quite steep though.

Is the A in A- tank short for Atlantis coils? Sorry guys, I've been vaping for years but I statered around the genny years so really never vaped on coil heads...Good news is I did order 3 boxes of those aspire mesh heads i see people talking about...hopefully It will be a pleasant experience...
The Bantam Box has been a total nightmare for me..

First the Bantam started to low battery my ... off with fully charged batterys, then the resistance was all over the place. Finally from all the battey changes the f-ing positive battery contact just falls off...I knew the contacts looked iffy from day one as i probaly mentioned in another post. what is this?.... Looks like some tin crap with rust to me. The break line looks white, no copper, no brass color, it looks weird...smh

The Bantam Box positive battery contact is magnetic and is a spring of sort, so must be mostly steel.

How about a picture of the piece that's still in the mod? Is that a screw or rivet head holding it to the chassis?
