Well folks, hate to bring down the holiday spirits, but we’ve lost another one...

ByLeo (makers of the Sophia and Calix, among other great devices) has announced they are closed.

Very sad day.

I’ll treasure my ByLeo gear as long as I can still use it, or vape.

Moi aussie.

I would rule out ALL the commercial coil bridges.

Then in order of preference... Boxxer V2, Xeta, Flow V2, Flow V1. All these I still use and the others not.

In all of them, I have Ni80 Aliens 0.4Ω firing at 28-30 watts. The first three are all excellent with almost no condensation or leaking. Any of the first three are winners!

Well it is just what I thought would happen, all BB's were sold out when I got home, they even had the Nugget in this sale, and I bet they wont have stock again until a week from this Saturday. Oh well more waiting.:|

KAS

Edit: Well according to the Discount Vapers Thread there is no sale, so I placed my order anyway, at least I got to order something. :)

The big discount had to have helped, but what I saw on the drop was just like the old days. I'd decided a Nugget would be nice and thought I'd try for one - if I had a chance to buy, I'd decide in that instant whether to go through with it. So doing refreshes, I saw the page go live and put a nugget in my cart. I was already signed in, so I was stepping through the payment procedure. On the second click, it brought me back to the cart with the message "order can not be completed due to stock level". Seriously, the whole thing took no more than 2 seconds, 3 at the most.

Just like the old days. Talking with a friend today, he suggested that along with the pendulum swinging back -as it always does in VapeWorld - that all the new rebuildables have really stoked the interest in BBV.

I have one in the Rev 3 version, but I would like the Rev 4 also, it is one of my favorite colors. I don't know why he doesn't put them up very often. I think the last time was about 6 months ago or so. I don't miss the Saturday mad rush to get your order in as fast as possible, if I had to do that again I doubt I would get anything these days. :|

I remember they posted a while back that they would be retiring some colors for a while. I don't know if that was because of production issues or just to create some demand. The ones I remember they listed are the Nugget, BX9 (aqua) and TMNT (toxic green). Since then, I've seen a fair amount of green get listed and a few BX9s. Seems like the gold has only re-appeared once since then, other than last Monday.

In the last couple of months, the Billet Box has become the darling of handcheckers all over the internet; particularly for those who go crazy over Barbie Doll customization. It seems to have become the nuclear warhead of handchecks. Good for BBV to help them stay afloat in trying times, but not so good for the rest of us.

Well yesterday I received my case of coils, if Discount ends up having a Xmas sale, I will probably order more of them, even though right now I have exceeded my budget. I was very surprised that they had stock today, I was not really prepared to place an order, when they popped up. I ordered a Unicorn Poo, it is a just a color I did not have. The fashion Nugget was the first to go out of stock, I would have tried for one, if they had it with the black button. Yea!!! I have another BB ordered, Merry Christmas to me! :D

Nice collection, What are the three skinny ones in the middle, i dont recognize any.

I can't remember what the first two are... Nautilus Coil and EUC coil... the third one is the bridge from Dee Mods.

The KRMA Bridge by Mission XV is getting a lot of good reviews.

Ordered a my first Billet Box yesterday. Joining the club hopefully before Christmas. :)

Any newcomer tips? I know it is a rabbithole.

For now I am looking for nice starter 510 driptip. And a black Desce sleeve to protect the Rat! :D

The Kabuki drip tip aka John Doe from House of Hybrids has always been my favorite on the BBox.

Never could do the sleeves.

Mums Fantasy Factory has amazing after-market panels/doors if you want to switch up the look.

If you rebuild, get the VapeShell by Atmizoo.

If you don’t rebuild, I’m not really sure what bridge to get, as I have only rebuildables for my collection.

I’m sure I have a Nautilus coil bridge tucked away somewhere, but I don’t use it.
