SXK Billet box...

[Pigs]

They come from a store in Toronto, Canada and he is sold out of the Ultem windows at the moment.
ULTEM BORO WINDOW REPLACEMENT BY BB VAPES BRVND (BORO TANK NOT INCLUDED)

Those battery wraps are totally indestructible, he has them for 18650/20700/21700 and gives them out for free when you add them to an order. I have all 3 sizes and put them on my daily use batteries. The only problem is you can't tell what the battery was after you put the wrap on, so I scratch an identifier on the negative end with an awl, 6 for the VTC6, 2 for the HG2, 5 or 5A and so on.
***FREE*** EXO EXO BATTERY WRAPZ BY BB VAPES BRVND (LIMIT X1PK 10PC PER SIZE PER ORDER)

I'd love to get some of those wraps. I googled them and only found them at the Canadian store you mentioned. Impractical for me in Australia. Anyone know of another vendor?

SXK Vape Shell arrived, the logo on the two sections is correct. eleaf EC-S coils arrived. Still testing both.

I do have sort of a tip for putting the VapeShell into the Boro Box for the first time (or anytime)..............take off the 510 adapter.
Also I made a coil with Kanthal that was 1.9 ohms and the Bantam box wouldn't fire it. It gave "Low Battery" error even though it was near full charge. I didn't think to drop the wattage down from 30 till after I put in another coil of lesser resistance in it. It is suppose to be able to output 8 volts and 7.5 volts would be required to fire that at 30 watts, just something to consider I guess.
So the Bantam box works real good at 30 watts with a 28 gauge SS430 coil, much easier to work with than the Kanger RBA head.

This looks good

I've heard good things. Didn't know the retail units were out yet

Yep definitely getting one. Here's a breakdown of the parts.

Seems it only available through Facebook again. Don't like that much.

Extra cheesey Intel Inside type sticker...

I refuse to play the X1 F5 Ranomizer FB bingo with these elitist manufacturers. So I'll check one out once the Chinese Majors spin up production.

I get why people do it but I can't stomach the Facebook game

Killing two birds with one stone day...finally got my A- tank for Ec-s coils. I decided to experiment and fix my own BB mini "Bantam box". As for the coils, to airy for me so installed the condensation plug...Taste not bad, performace ok I quess. Being thats my fist time trying coil heads i cant judge, but I will throw them into the billet box instead to see what they can really do. Had to make sure they dont leak before putting them in my baby baby..

That looks like a button top battery or am I seeing things?

Its a flat, its probaly the reflection from the friction mark on the sheet metal...

How did you attach this? Also did the original one just snap off?

Fortunately the positive post has a screw that screws into the contact itself. I just cut a small piece off the sheet then folded it in half, drilled a small hole and sandwiched it between the broken contact. I think something was wrong with this mod from the begining. The mod still hits weak for me but it works a little better then before.

It wasn't easy because the tolerances are very little. It was hard to get everything back in becase the screw presses against the bottom of micro-usb port which looks like a safty hazard. You also need to be mindful that it doesn't touch the mod on the folded part....

Last but not least the contact was bad from the begining. It just fell off from constantly changing the batteries, due to constantly getting a low battery error with new batterys.

To be honest, even the best highest amperage 18500 cells made today, I wouldn't expect to get anything higher than a decent 12 watts. Although I am sure the technology is there to produce a decent 20A 18500. But to sell them affordable enough, they would have to sell a lot more than they do now to make it worth their while.

Ah sorry to hear that, hopefully it doesn't happen to mine but it's been okay so far. Only thing is I had to sand the edges of the positive contact because they were scratching the heck out of my battery contacts and I didn't like that even though it probably would have been okay. Thanks for the detailed response!

I must say that haku rda for the BB looks impressive. I also must say that Im enjoying the hell out of the EC-S mesh coil head..Im even getting a slight throat hit. Thats something I havent felt in along time on 6mg nic.. Seems like its getting better after a few refills.

Im only sorry that I ordered only one A-tank so I could only vape one flavor for now...I vape 5 to 6 mods in rotation with diffrent flavors and builds at the same time. I want to try diffrent ejuces in rotation with the EC-S coils but only ordered one A-tank.....

Dang you're convincing me to order some of those EC-S coils, they seem to be the new rage.

Bill you confused the heck out of me with this post, 1st don't you mean 18350 instead of 18500 and 2nd don't you mean "decent 12 amps" instead of "decent 12 watts"?
I'm getting ready to break out my Dicodes 2380 with an 18350's to see how these 9/10 amp 18350 fair, they seem to do quite well in the Bantam at 30 watts.
The Dicodes will display the voltage drop.

Absolutely! Dang I need more sleep and I need to stop watering down my coffee.

With my Dicodes 2380 powered by the Vapcell 9 amp 18350 that I was using in my Bantam at near full charge I used it at 30 watts for about 10 drags then bumped it up to 40 watts and took 6 more drags. Not shown here but the voltage drop on the last hit was 3.4 volts.

Back down to 30 watts to better compare to Bantam, standing voltage is 4.0 volts and voltage drop still at 3.4.
