You must have replied before checking you PM. Like Ragu, it's in there!

But will put it here again too. ICR=protected , IMR = unprotected

ICR is like a condom, protection on the outside. IMR is for use with birth control, when the protection is internal (at least you hope so, but still having to take someone else's word). Our BB is not on the pill! Sorry ladies, sometimes dudes need it related to sex so we understand it better, since we think about that every 7 seconds according to some studies.

Post of the century, DJ; post of the freaking century. :toast:

buy a soldering iron. One short and that is what you will be doing.

Or a start a college fund, depending on what protection you're avoiding.

I am going to have to revoke my suggestion of using eFest batteries. While they do give you a little more power capacity (about 100mah more), they are just too inconsistent on their protection circuits. Seems like there quality control is getting even worse now. The AW shuts down way more reliably. At least the eFest are on the conservative side and shut down at a lower current, but man that is annoying. So for me, the little extra capacity is no longer worth the aggravation of their continued QC issues. However, folks running a standard carto setup at 3 ohms, will probably never notice. Folks doing lower resistance coils are the one's who will notice as your BB cuts off mid vape.

So "ICR" AW 16340 batteries are all I can recommend right now. Wish there were more out there that quality.

Still not sure I understand. Can you provide a car analogy? ;)

I have a couple of questions.

Are the extra tanks and care kits sold only on Saturdays, same time as BBs?

When shipping notices are sent, how long usually until they are actually shipped?

Thanks in advance.

They sell the accessories anytime there is stock. Might be they only update the inventory on certain days, but you can certainly buy anytime. Just so happens, the stock is usually sold out very soon after being updated though. They usually ship the next business day, but USPS will not update until late that evening.

When you say certain days are there any usual days accessories are updated or can it be any day? As you can see I'm new to all this.

I got a shipping notice yesterday but there has been no update yet. Seems strange to me.

I don't think there are certain days for accessories. Usually someone on this thread will post an update when something comes in stock that has been out a while. Or simply setup a page monitor for the item you want and it will alert you when it changes.

If you got a shipping notice, don't worry, USPS doesn't do the best job of scanning unless it is priority mail. First class they sort of look at and go "meh" don't feel like scanning that. So by the end of the week, you will most likely have your item, if not sooner.

Oh hey, just noticed your right up the road from me! I come to Columbia all the time to eat....our restaurant situation sucks here. You'd think with Masters here, it would be better....not.

I did get Priority shipping. That's why I didn't understand why it hasn't updated unless they were busy yesterday and it didn't go out. I'm hoping it updates tonight. If not I'm going to be concerned.

Priority is two day now, wouldn't be surprised if you had it in your hands tomorrow. But it could have just shipped today if the label was created after the postal run yesterday and you should have it Thursday. Either way, the BB folks are good, no worries. Postal on the other hand......another story.

I agree. My worries are with USPS not BB.

If I recall, the ones I'd gotten previously arrived on either Friday or Saturday. I wouldn't worry much - I think they've got a load on their hands, even more so if they have indeed increased production.

Keep the faith (as Bon Jovi so eloquently put it).

It's wanted dead or alive bud ...lol

Officially my BB is not a Runaway

When I get it I will vape in my Bed of Roses

How bout that for JBJ references..lol

Have a good day

Cheers
