And speakin' of Christmas... I may be lurking, but I'm always out here somewhere.

It's that time of year once again and I'm wishing all of you the very merriest of whatever you wish to celebrate! For me, it's Christmas.

The important thing is that we all celebrate something and enjoy seeing others in their celebration and we all do it enjoying the love and peace that celebration should bring.


Teach that was so cool. I loved it. Thanks.

You kids all be good (Kat) or Santa won't bring you any presents.

Apologies if this has been asked and answered already, but does the ΣΟΦΙΑ rta V2 work in the Billet Box?

The two versions are the same size so technically it should work the same with the BB kit. Also you don't have to have the eliquid control open as far on the v2 so it should be less adjusting on the fly. I used the v1 when I got the boro tanks so that I could see her but have not tried the v2

After a while I did come to the conclusion that they are two brilliant product that are not necessarily better when used together so I switched back to the bridge in the BB and the Sophia in a reg tank.

I chose the free shipping for my order, and I still have not had the tracking update for USPS, looks like I wont see it till after Xmas now, if it has not been lost that is. When I last had shipping from ELTA? it took 2 weeks till USPS got the package, Tuesday will be 3 weeks, hopefully it is just because of the Holidays.:unsure:

KAS

Edit: I just want to add that the V1 worked, but I had a lot of problems with the juice control getting stuck, and some leaking.

With battery talk on here. I seen that on RTD's site they now have it listed that the AW 16340 Protected do not fit the Billet Box. Hope that AW changes the specs back to what they are supposed to be. Not the oversized offering being sold now.

Guess we might have to get a list together of batteries that will work for the Billet Box just incase.

I just measured the last ones that I had bought from them, and the ones they have now are slightly longer, my measuring tool will not measure that small, but mine are around 34.10mm long, and they are tight. the ones one the site are listed as 34.59mm long. So I might have to look at some other batteries soon. :(

The 34.59's should fit, KAS. Orbtronics has some listed at 35.xx, that definitely won't. The 34.59 might be a tight fit, so be prepared to thwack it hard (so to speak).

I believe RTD has some red AW 18340's (@Freedom2Vape ?) that should be fine too - but 200 mAh less. We do what we must.

This bites.

I am really used to using the protected ones, and the ones I have now are already tight, I have had to pry them out. I have one really tough thumbnail that I can get them out with, Just one though, the other thumbnail would break. :)

In a pinch, which this appears to be, you CAN use the red IMRs.

I really don't want to rely on my being able to tell if my battery is dying, I don't trust myself that much.:unsure:

The red AW 16340s are the ones that I ordered so it is great that those will work. I ordered an 8 pack to start and they should arrive either before or at the same time as the Billet Box. It appears that I shall soon be joining this wonderful group :thumbs:.

I don't think you need to worry about that, KAS. As Kat said, she uses them regularly. They act the same as the protected ones, more or less (less).

I will end up with some of them, but I don't like it, I hate it when things change, I get used to how one thing works, and someone goes and changes it. Grrr!:-x

I'm not pleased with it either, and I've got a bunch of family members who will be displeased too.

I hope they straighten it out for us.
