Our Rev4s do not.

Si, senorita.

I can only assume that BBV is opting for the 60 as much (or more!) for the availability (of chips) as for any increased power or features. Ill equipped to be any type of expert, since I don't use TC at all (nor care to), I can only say that the escribe on my DNA75's has been accessed exactly once (cute pictures), and the software on my Yihi mods has never been used at all.

Unfortunately I don't think this (lack of USB, etc.) will present a major stumbling block for the BBV crazies. I almost wish it would, because it would be nice for the sales to last longer than 60 seconds each week (especially considering the uncaught-to-date flippers).

There a lot of very good people who've been trying to get one for a very long time. If this issue slows things down enough for that to happen, I'll raise a glass to it.

For the record, I am not in the market for another (my 40 is still four times what I require). I hope that all who've been trying manage to land one this week.

Is it true this will have no escribe capability (ie no usb etc..)?? It certainly doesnt look like it to me....

I confirmed with them last week during one of their live video feeds that there will NOT be a USB port. Small bummer but not a deal breaker for me.

Ok! It would be nice if the buyer could get the chip set up as they want before assembly but i guess that's asking a lot! In the end it is a better chip with more power for the same cost so shouldn't complain at all really :)

You optimism is admirable. ;)

:pop:
Yeah! let the games begin lol!

Seriously though, the USB/charging board isnt so small and there is no way they could fit it into a BB at the current size. More would moan if they made the box larger i reckon ;)

Agreed. But we've seen some of the nutjobs on Facebook complain about everything from the inability to get one, and running right up through the weather in their own region.

It can be funny sometimes, but also "not". :facepalm:

Hey BBox crew. It's been a minute or two. Hope you're all doing fine.

I recently reverted back to MTL and pulled my Rev. 3a's out of retirement. Fell in love all over again. Rocking the aspire bvc coils. I might join the F5 wars on Saturday. I just ordered the 'Comfort' bridge, partly to make sure my account was ready for action. If I'm lucky and quick enough to score one of these new 60w BBs, I was thinking about also getting the A-tank.

I just haven't been able to find any reviews (searching anywhere for "A-tank" is about useless) and I was wondering if anybody has tried one and what they thought of it. Also wondering what coils work with it. I know it's for the "Atlantis family" of coils, but I don't really know what that includes besides the atlantis coils themselves, if anything.

I'm also kind of curious if there are any coils for the 'comfort' bridge besides the nautilus and triton minis. I want to get a grip on my options, so any help would be greatly appreciated.

I can almost guarantee that IF there was a USB port, that for each person who smiled at the option, double to triple would definitely moan at a larger sized B Box!!

No difference in the A-tank, other than a larger bottom hole to accommodate the larger Atlantis/style coils.

Not sure about other Comfort Bridge compatibilities...Nauty and Triton Mini are the only ones I've used with it.

I should have worded that better. I was wondering if anybody had tried any of the Atlantis style coils in the Billet Box, and what they thought of it. I don't want to spend the extra 60 bucks if they don't work well together.

I'll counter that with this:
BBV probably wouldn't have made the A-tank if there hadn't been demand for it, and if the coils weren't working well...

Hahaha sorry to be all Cheshire Cat about it.

I wouldn't blame you for wanting to save the money if it won't work well, but I can say that BBV gear has no issues being resold here on the Classies...especially given the mostly exclusive/elusive nature of their products.

I don't have any personal experience with a Rev4, but I'm sure it will be a good match with the Atlantis/style coils.

I have a couple atomizers that use them, and I have not had any issues with them.

Definitely too airy for MTL in my experience, but luckily the atomizers I use them in had good adjustable airflow.

I don't MTL...I lung hit, but I like a very restricted lung hit...example: I lung hit a stock Kayfun Lite. Many people say I'm crazy for lung hitting that small an airflow, but it's all I used for so long that I learned to love it.

Even my airier atomizers get closed off most of the way...makes the cloud chasers shake their heads!

I like a restricted lung hit sometimes, too. Well, I guess I like to have options, depending on my mood. I have some Atlantis and Triton coils in my stockpile, and I was thinking the tighter airflow through the BB could make for a nice vape with them, but I'm a little on the fence about it. I was hoping for some anecdotal evidence to persuade me one way or another. If I can't get a rev 4 it'll be a moot point though, so maybe I'll wait until I have one in my hands to decide.

Precisely how I feel!

I have heard from several people who own Rev3 and Rev4, and apparently the airflow has been increased in the Rev4...so I'm definitely curious about that!

From FB:

Hi all! Colors for tomorrow's drop will be: black, dark blue, green, silver (clear), red, orange, purple (pink), light blue and bronze. We will also have tons of accessories though I don't have a full list yet. (Don't think panels, though, but I know there will be more Rev 3 tanks for those of you waiting)
