BB needs come come out with a squonker...

Not their target audience..... What I respect most about BB is their vision and how they stick to it. Remember this thing is made with a carto in mind, not clouds. Kinda funny becuase most people w

I have six squonk mods and find myself with a Rev 4 in my hand more than any other mod. Given it checks all my "wants", I don't see that changing anytime soon.

Now when/if DNA200 squonker come out to the masses at a reasonable price, I will be all over those.

I was reading a page or two back about people talking about how they were worried about breaking the glass in their boro tank if they have to lower it a lot to get a replacement coil in.

I was assembling tanks today and had a piece of glass that had some scratches in it, and not wanting to just throw it away I tried to break it. It took a bit of pressure to get it to break. With the new tanks I don't think you're going to have to worry about the glass breaking unless you're intentionally trying to break it.

Well.........................................................

Mine broke 10 seconds after I got it in the mail..

Short version:

Was trying to slide tank down far enough for the larger and square'ish Kanger coil to fit in. The glass slid all the way off, out of my hand and onto the tile floor.. A bounce, smash, crack, break and roll later it was in 50 pieces..

The problem is that some atty's, I'm looking at you Kanger and the soon to be used Billet Racing, require that the tank glass to be slid pretty far down (almost off) in order to get the atty in the tanks body.

I can see plenty of glass breaking once the Billet Racing starts getting used in the exact same way mine broke.. That Kanger RBA is ginourmous when compared the the BB tank size and the glass will need to be almost removed for it to fit..

It won't break from sliding it down in the BB for filling purposes but...........

D'oh!

One of the magnets fell out of the body of my BB4...
Any suggestions of how to secure it back in there? Super glue, maybe?
I'd shoot BB an email or start a Facebook convo and see what they recommend..

You should really only need to lower the glass half way to get the coil head into the tank. It might be a tight squeeze and take a little messing around to get it to fit in properly, but it should be pretty safe

Have you seen the Kanger RBA inside the BB tank? If not you might want to take a look at it in the Atmistique thread..

The glass will need to be almost to the bottom in order for it to fit.. For the larger square Kanger I had to drop it down about 75% of the way. As I was pushing down the glass just slid right off...

I'm not saying it's going to be a common occurrence but it is going to happen again..

I'd agree, raq. It does look like one would pretty much have to almost remove the glass to fit that in.

Yeah it takes up over half the tank.. Someone in that thread who is testing it said they could only get 3ML of juice in with the Kanger RBA inside... YIKES!

I was kind of worried about this aspect of the new design. I was hoping the magnets were threaded into the bodies like a screw and not press fit in. On the Reo I've had problems with loose magnets but it's usually the door side.
