Allright, got my order in tonight! I've been following the development of Ken's mods for a long while now... Looking forward to the workmanship of this outstanding unit!

 

[LKin]

I should have my BB Monday, it's sitting in Philly right now. I'm so looking forward to using this small VV, my hands are getting very tired from carrying the ST around.

Great review! The only question I have is the "tactile" switch capable of handling the load? Most that I have seen are rated for 0.5mA. A 3A minimum switch is required in this application.

Curious about this too. Anyone??

 

[bssage]

how are the ce2's working on these? they dont fit on some of my other mods.

The CE2's work fine on my BB.

Haven't actually got mine yet, but from the enlarged picture on Ken's site, it looks similar in size to the Lil Sis switch or a 50mA 6mm switch similar to this one.

Whether it is capable of handling the load or not depends on where it is placed in the circuit. There are several threads in the ECF mods section about using regulators that have a control pin (for the switch) that doesn't carry the load, so Ken might be using a similar circuit in the BB.

 

[salemgold]

I LOVE my Big Brother! Plain and simple.

sorry, totally not capable of adding any technical jargon here.

 

[Free2BMe]

LOL salem. You using an adapter and 808 cartos on it or what?

My switch is so tiny I can barely see it and I'm scared to death it's going to break, my first box mod and it's so tiny. I also need to decorate it to give it some personality. I ordered my batteries way before this mod and I still don't have them yet so I haven't even gotten to try it out, pure torture. At least I can look at it and anticipate.

A word of warning about using your BB: Avoid long dry burns. I was cleaning up some older CE2 cartos and since the BB is one of the few mods I have that gives me a connection with the older cartos I was using it to dry burn them. I had the BB in a Janty pouch and didn't realize how hot it was getting. When I went to change batteries I found that the magnets had gotten so hot the one attached to the cover had melted off and was left attached to it's partner.

Completely my fault and I was able to glue it back on, but the BB gets hotter than your average mod so be careful.
