Very nice! and great color choicesHurrah for Overtow!
Hi y'all!
The Rev4 family says hi too.
From left to right, we have F. Flip, DV (Daily vape), B25, and PB Big Screen.
B25 was going to become my Rev4 Starplat but since they will never be made again it will stay a virgin and won't be mod'd for that. Gotta save up for another one to try and put the Starplat chip into.

So far I love this BB. Went to take the battery out last night for the first time...giddy up! That was not easy. Is there a trick to it? Pretty snug fit. Perhaps they listen up over time.
They do loosen up over time I've noticed. But the included paperwork made mention of giving it a light smack on the palm and then pulling from the top (negative) side.
But still not the easiest thing in the world.

AH - The Too Tight Battery discussion once again . . .
YES - "We" have discussed this a few times since last November concerning the BB v3.a and the AW icr 123 16340 Protected battery . . . It has even been noted on the BB Website & "RTDVapor" (Just one of the better Battery Vendors used by many here) that these are no longer suggested as the main battery to use in the BB v3.a, given that AW changed the size of the Black battery by mere millimeters without telling anyone. . . However, the RED AW batteries (*NEW* AW IMR 16340 550mAh 8A ) will still work in the BB v3.a . . .
NOW - The really good thing is that a number of B Boxers/Bobettes came up with a few suggestions for a work arounds to make this easier that worked very well for the continued use of the Black AW Batteries (Ya' Can just search the thread to read what some people came up with) . . . Matter of fact, "Our" own @HBcorpse went all the way and actually modified his BB by doing a little "surgery" - even provided "Us" with pictures too . . .
You can see what he did here: ~The Billet Box~ page 1559 continued...
Just an FYI . . .
Here's what I did. I'm not a fan of "whack and unwrap" method for the BB. The Rev4 has really tight tolerances which is awesome but doesn't leave enough room for a ribbon or even a piece of paper with some of my batteries.
This is just a strip of scotch tape folded over on itself.

Excellent idea with the tape! I have different kinds of strong tape and can just put a piece on each 18650.Here's what I did. I'm not a fan of "whack and unwrap" method for the BB.

The wood wrap is not wasted.

I thought about putting the tags attached directly on the batteries but I still have mech tube mods that I use too and not enough batteries to go around.
Decided to jump in to the BB world by getting a version 3 and bvc bridge, just got it Saturday:
I found the boro tanks with the glass sheets nerve-racking, and since I vape at 4.5V/11W The R3 with the delrin tanks fit the bill nicely.
I like the form factor so much, I decided to go ahead and order another R3 and a couple of spare tanks while they are still available (this next one in Katbalone). It's nice to be able to order one without breaking the F5 key on my keyboard, also.

I wonder how DD would feel about his device being renamed.
Hip Hip Hooray for the new Katbalone!!!! You'll undoubtedly love it!
stanley, I REALLY love this look!

Between these and doing DIY Tobacco flavors, vaping has never been more enjoyable for me.

I'm 4 days in on my Billet Box experience. I have to say that I am loving this little mod. I think a second one is in my future. While getting a second tank is an option I think better to just get a Kubris too.
I'm usually not a big fan of the wooden look, Stanley, but even I must admit that looks great.
And Mike, to know a L'Orange is to love one. They're quite marvelous. Good luck with your decision.
