~The Billet BoX~

[Crocky]

I would love to try the IKV cartos but when I can get the boges slotted for about $27 for 25 of them it is hard to spend double that on IKV. Maybe ifi tried one one time it might be worth it however out of all the boge SR cartos I have gotten I would say I may have gotten maybe a handful of bad ones....maybe. Now my boges don't seem to last me more than a few days until it starts getting harder to draw but I link that to the juice I use in it. I use one juice in the BB and that is it....cinnamon roll.

Now I may be looking at the wrong IKV cartos as far as price.

Meanwhile Silent ... Just get ya some slotted SR Boges!! ;-)

As someone great once (or more than once, maybe) said...

If it's open invitation, make it 5.



That's a very difficult question to answer friend. It's all about personal preference really. I personally abhor Boge cartos now. They used to be great cartos, but the really did change for the worse about a year ago, IMO. For me, Ikenvape really is the way to go.

Bogegate made me sell off all my carto tanks, back whenever that was. But I must admit that I've fallen back in love with the little slotted suckers. I'm not into stalking so when I looked for the IKV's, I looked away quickly.

And no, I did not stalk for my BB either. I just got lucky one fateful Saturday afternoon, when I supposed to be working.

I completely understand. IKV cartos are fairly expensive compared to the Boge's. I recommend most folks just getting a 5 pack from IKV and use them side by side with some Boge's. If you don't notice a difference, then stick with Boge. Like you said, with the last group of Boge's I had, I was getting a good 2 days out of them, then it was time for a new one. With IKV's, I can easily get a week before I notice flavor change, then I push it a few days past that, then swap.

I think for a lot of folks that might be new to vaping, y'all might not have had the chance to experience Boge's in their prime. So ya can't really know what you're missing if you never had it. I don't mean that insulting at all, but it sure reads that way while I'm sitting here looking at it.

I'll shut up now, I could go on for hours about cartos. They're pretty much all I've been using for 2 out of my 3 years of vaping.

So I have asked this question many times and also got answers . But I am also not a spring chicken and the ole mind does not work like it use to. Can someone. Tell me again (for the 10th time or maybe as many kids as 238765 has....LOL) the recommended carto from IKV. I might look into buying a pack just to see what all the ruckus is about....LOL

I think you were a few kids short, but I believe Ms. Darling MIGHT recommend:
IKV 510 MEGA Platinum SR S Series

But that's just a guess.

LOLOLOL!! THAT was funny Crocky!! And HEY Girlie!!! I forget too ... But Kat knows ... I think she uses both. ME just the slotted Boges. ;-)

 

[drewbalicious]

They are currently not in stock. But for use in the BB I would recommend these: IKV 510 Platinum Cartomizer SR S Series



DP for the win!

LMAO! I've only seen them in stock once, and I had already gotten my Boges. And I didn't know they were going to last for-freaking-ever. But I should have, because The Lovely Ms. Kids told me they would.

NOT that doubted her, mind you...

Table for 5.... in the vaping section, please.

Crocky, you know you're going to try them. Give them a box-full go and see what you think, eh? They're pretty reliably good. As are Boges, im (not so) ho.

Oh! How insulting!

Actually, Drewdelicious, I would love to hear more about cartos. Cartos make my world go round. And Happy 3 years vaping kiddo. Me almost as well.

Good guess DPLongomeister! Ding ding ding ding! Those are however the long(o) babies and I don't think they'll fit the box... Then again the Dremelers might be able to shave a bit off the top...

And you drewd'lish for the win as well.




We all won. We're here. (Thank you immensely, DD of BB fame.)

If ya can't tell, I'm rather fond of this B Boxer family.

 

[cogsandgears]

I thought id give the V2 Diver another go last night. It immediately - first draw - dumped about a quarter of a tank of juice into the BB.... Can anyone who has gotten it working tell me how to set it up?

I have been told not to screw the brass ring down too much. Do I need to pressurise the tank like you do with a carto?

Oops! Thanks, Kat!!! I bookmarked the wrong page and could have really mucked someone up (including Yours Truly!). I'm sure glad they were out of stock when I looked

I appreciate you cleaning up my mess, and apologize to The Throngs.

It does exactly the same to me. Very frustrating.

Come by the Diver thread, I hear there's a bunch of lunatics with blowtorches and hacksaws there who love fixing Divers for kicks.

Hello fellow Billet Boxers.

I've had my BB for about 5 days now and have a question about the back cover. Basically it's really tough to slide on and off. It takes both hands to force it. I've cleaned the rails with a toothpick (as suggested in the instructions that came with it) and have used kitchen oil to lube it up a bit. The kitchen oil helps for about 2 go's and then it's stiff again.

Is this normal ? I don't want to break it.

It gets stiff because it's bare metal rubbing on bare metal. You shouldn't have to worry about breaking it, it's pretty solid. I've never lubed the tracks of my BB.

I use tissue paper to wipe off the black residue that forms on the grooves of the BB back (side grooves and top groove), the edges of the back cover (again, all three edges), and - this may be what some miss - the small ball under the tank on the BB, and the groove and small cavity on the inside surface of the BB back cover where that ball slides and comes to rest. If I only clean the grooves, and not the rest, it is still difficult to remove/insert.

After the black residue has been completely removed, I apply a bit of olive oil to all the places I just cleaned.

 

[Mr B]

Dose anyone know if any BB will be on sale Saturday?

My little beauty arrived today heavy but lovely

Ditto what Kat said...this it aluminum oxide, and is a completely natural occurrence with any mod made from aluminum. I use a bit of paper towel, rubbing alcohol, and a plastic knife to clean out the grooves. For the ball, same thing. Push and turn the ball at the same time to clean all sides. Same with the edges of the door, and groove where the ball slides. I use olive oil, too to lube it.

These are life lessons, people. Listen up! Keep your grooves and balls clean! And lubed! That is all.

Class dismissed.
