My 2 extra sets of batteries arrived today! Now I can relax and just vape it! :)

I've been keeping a spare pair in my jacket at all times. I rarely need them though. I have to leave my desk and go outside so I can't vape too much during the day. I still love it though. With my little glass trippy tip on it, it's just great. I find myself just holding it a lot. Even when i can't use it, I just like to hold it.

It's like my....uh.....

I can't vape too much at work either, have to go outside, or in the ladies' room. :) But it's always in my pocket, just in case I have a chance for a stealth vape. :lol:

Good morning, DD of BB fame and all you B Box adorers.

As a vaper of some time now, my arsenal of devices has grown into a fairly large sized population. Some purchases have been delightful. Some have been "that's a good idea to have" buys. Some have been too CUTE to pass up. Some have been quasi mistakes (not many).

However, not for quite some time now has one caused me to feel such excitement and pure "WOW!!"
Your B Box, Mr. Dino, is truly exquisite and innovative and for me, a must have.

I have watched your videos and read every post in this thread. I am pleased with what I'm hearing and seeing!

My pre-order is placed and I only have one question...

constant state of confusion
I have had my Billet Box for a few days. I got it on Wednesday but didn't have time to do anything more than unbox it that day. When I knew it was on the way, I picked out which juice I wanted first for it's maiden voyage (Alice in Vapeland Zombie Apocalypse) and went on the search for my batteries. Just for the record, I have memory issues compounded by not being the most organized person in the world. I knew I had the right batteries because I used them in my Lil' Chuck. But I put the batteries away when I misplaced my Lil" chuck for 6 months..and then when I found the chuck, I couldn't find the batteries :facepalm:. So ordered new batteries from Empire and they still aren't here. So basically my BB has been sitting on the shelf mocking me since Wednesday, with intervals of me just holding it....and a few times pretending to vape with it (stop laughing :p)

The construction on this thing is SOLID. I would rate the construction, weight, and feel of it right up there with my Provaris. There is nothing flimsy or cheap about this thing. And it is beautiful. It is a functional work of art.

So today, while looking for something else I lost :)blink:) I found the right batteries!!! So I slapped them on the charger and watched the filling video (again) and started the filling process. I do know that with the next carto change, I will need to adjust my carto punch to punch the hole lower in the carto. In my haste, I just grabbed one that was already punched for a lavatank. For normal folks, filling is going to be easy. I made a mess, but syringes and I don't get along.....even though I used to be an RN :unsure: So where was I?

oh yes, BB is filled. Staring at charger willing them with my mind to charge faster. FYI..that does not work but at all. If anything, it makes it take longer. Finally we have the green light...literally! So I snap the batteries in (love that feature), slide the door back on, look at the mod in all it's glory again, and take that first vape....and literally choked. This thing hits like a Mack Truck! Slide the door back down and lower the voltage a bit and try again. Ahhhhh.....sheer perfection!

I like the placement of the button and I like that it is not a "clicky" button. Unlike Nick (Grimm), I am not obsessed with the clicky button thing. The engraving is nicely done and makes it so much more special.

So in closing...and if you are still with me after the babbling I have done in this post..thank you....this mod is now my most special favorite mod.....my Precious (insert Gollum voice here). It is the mod that all other mods will aspire to be.

So for me, this mod is a homerun in all aspects.

Reminds me of the old days trying to score a Trippy Tip

stealth blocking software engaged..........................

How funny is THAT, Brutus. Ah, I remember the days all too well. :D

Very nice to see you again in these parts, and my condolences on your loss. Sadly, I know exactly ... welp, sigh. I'm very sorry.

Ugh.

Eleven days off from work - check!. Son flown in to town to visit for the holidays - check! Big plans to get some stuff done, have some quality hang time, maybe make a BB review video . . . gonna be a great weekend, says I!

Wake up this morning, feel a bit off.

Two hours later, feels like someone sandpapered the inside of my throat and lungs and poured lemon juice down there just for giggles.

So, NOT gonna be the Rockwell-painting weekend I had in mind. . . . <grrr!>

That said, BB's been in my robe pocket all day but Orange Ice isn't doing me any favors. Gotta bunch of nicquids here but not sure what if anything works with a sore throat. Any suggestions for a soothing vape?

can't think of any e-fuild that will do you any favors in your condition, but a good drink will make the vapor go down with ease.. I love getting sick just so I have a valid excuse to drink the following...

the gin toddy

2 ounces of "super hot" boiling hot water
1 tablespoon of sugar into that boiling water
add 1 oz of lemon juice into the mix
followed by 2 oz of gin (Hendricks gin)

if your throat can feel anything after that,,, well it shouldn't...but,,, that will achieve the smooth vape. Uhh, my throat is starting to hurt now too..... YAHAAAA!!!!

Ugh the wait is killing me!! Hoping to have my pre-sale BB in my hand by NewYears Eve. I haven't been this anxious to get a mod since I ordered my VV Ali'i. Wow....that seems soooo long ago. LOL
I'm on it, cutting and prepping parts as i type.... will do my very best! Just got Hoop's Bill engraved and filled for contrast.... he will have to dry overnight and we will see if i did a good job in the mornin'.. but, so far, so good....
