On the subject of the BVC's, last night I ordered 20 box's of them from discount vapers. While I was typing this DPL posted this. :)

Discount Vapers has them for $7.99, and I trust those guys implicitly.

"Hi", by the way. :)

How many Rev 3's are there. They are the foremost last of breed :p

It doesn't really tell you, because it allows us to select our options with that one. Truly, yes! And somewhat vapocalypse-proof too! :thumbs:

Hi KAS.

You're in good hands with those boys. I think they max out at 20 allowable, but I think that should be enough for many... ;)

You are correct, I am probably just being irrational. :oops:

Not really irrational, especially when it comes to higher power & safety . . . Personally, I am very concerned about staying SAFE - while also not NEEDING higher power (as some youngins do all the time to blow clouds) . . . Just Sayin' . . . ;)

How do I find a BVC group buy or co-op buy to take part in?

Let me know if you find one.

I've had a link set up to the planning/discussion threads for them, and any have been few and far between these days. :( I can't remember the last time I saw anything for coils and such.

Yep - Very few and far in between recently . . . AND - Here's the link that "You" mentioned - where people can go to check out any "Planning/Discussion" threads: https://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/forums/coop-planning-and-discussion.721/

Matter of fact, there was a discussion about this - back in April (which although the thread is closed, it also has a number of links where to go for "coils" at the lower prices too): https://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/threads/aspire-plato-and-nautilus-coils-bueller-bueller.

AND - BTW: @HBcorpse & @5cardstud - don't know if either of Ya' know that "You" can also start a thread and ask the same thing there to see who else might be interested, especially who of the more experienced member would be willing to have one . . . Hint Hint Hint . . . ;)


Heaven gifts have them for $8 per pack. Their 25% off anniversary

"AHG25" - Which will work depending on what and how much you want to purchase on some items . . . Tried the coils and be aware that the code - will sometimes work and other times will not work on the same item . . . Just Sayin' . . . :facepalm:

Probably not kosher to publicly ask this, or propose this, but hey...this thread doesn't seem to be infected with crybabies like a lot of other threads...so here we go.

How do I find a BVC group buy or co-op buy to take part in?

These usually take place when several individuals go in together to purchase a large quantity of something at a wholesale price...

Any leads?
Mods, am I breaking the rules just by asking?
I thought these were allowed, but if they're taboo, I'll edit this post to say:

Hope y'all are having a good night!
Sweet Vapes to the best of my knowledge is very very close to wholesale price. I remember Zen saying something about that since he knew wholesale? Hopefully I'm not making that up... But I remember him saying he wasn't even sure they were making any money off them, but just bringing people to their site.

Anyway - very cheap over there. :)

So what's the difference between the Nautilus BVC and the standard Aspire BVC? Is the air any different? Anything else? Looks like the regular is cheaper.

I already have some Nautilus Bvc's in the house and have more on order and also two Nautilus bridges for the Billet... With that said - the air on my rev 3 is a little much. I have tape over two of the holes. Would that regular BVC's help in that regard or anything?

Any drawbacks to the regular BVC?

Different sizes, different Bridges required. One are for Nauti tanks, the others are for non-Nauti tanks. Very different from each other. I like them both.

The BVC has a slightly tighter draw.
Man, if you're covering up two of the holes, you must like a MUCH tighter draw than I do.
Then again, I lung hit my KFLs and my BBoxes with Nauti and BVC coils.

People always ask how I do that, and I don't know. I just trained myself I guess.

I think it started when I moved from cartos to KFLs. The draw was WAY more open than a carto, so I started lung hitting.
Then the airflow wars started but I never got into those types of tanks or drippers.

Thanks for the info on coils folks!
Sounds like good old SweetVapes will continue getting my business!

They are cheap, and I used to buy a lot from them. But with DV dropping to $.04 more, and NOT having to deal with the third-party insurance (their policy statement reads like the AHCA), I opt for DV for the BVC coils now.

Having been buying from them since back they were still "Go-Go USA", I know that if I have a problem, Eric or "LD" will stand strongly behind it. They're one of my four "Can-do-no-wrong" vendors, with others being ProVape, NiteLite Vapor, and, well, BILLET-BOX VAPOR!

Who knew.

Well, after a bit of procrastination, looking around, listening to what DPLongo22 and others have said, deciding 'naah, redeciding, rolling dice and whatnot....

A nice little Rev 3.a Dober will be on the way to me (with an extra delrin tank). 4 black aw 16340s are on the way as well.

Sheesh, I've spent more than a thousand bucks on this leg of the hobby (not counting mechs--just BBs and RBAs to go with it). Good thing it's been a long while since I've smoked. I'm still spending less than I would on cigarettes. But if DD keeps going.... maybe I'll have to break my no-classies attitude (I tend to give stuff away I don't use anymore).

But, on the bright side, I've got a Rat Black, a Kürbis (both Rev 4), and now the Dober on the way. That should keep me vaping through the Vapocalypse (if it gets as bad as some think). And I've got liters of pg/vg stashed away as well.
