I was thinking to myself - Self, it's about time to buy a 2nd Billet Box. Note to self: wait til the colors come in, and *then* get one~!
I am thinking maybe your talking to yourself a little too much when you answer back.
Sorry buddy, I couldn't resist that.
Well, guess not to many people purchased the leather BB cases from Serenity Gear as he is discontinuing them. But on the good side, they are discounted now in the clearance section if anyone was thinking about them. Looks like he knocked off $10 bucks on the regular price.

The absolute easiest thing you can do is go here: AW icr 123 16340 protected battery - Batteries
They cost $6.37 each. RTD is a reputable company who most of us on ECF buy batteries from. this is exactly the battery recommended by Doug Dino, and they work and fit perfectly, because the mod was designed to use them.
4 of them cost you less than $30 and you can use them for a very very very long time. Plus, with more people buying them from the same site, the batteries are fresher than getting them 'on sale' from a site that can't move em for 2 years and you have bad battery life.
Trying to save money on batteries is like trying to save money by buying wilted lettuce. There's a REASON that lettuce is cheaper, and you don't want to buy bulk because batteries lose life from storage without even using em.
You might save $4 or $2 and spend $30 more in 6 months. Penny wise, dollar foolish. Buy the RTD batteries.
It's easy if you live in the USA
But if you don't live in the US you might be able to order from the AW website.
AW R123A ( 16340 ) Lithium-Ionen battery 3,7V / 750mAh, 9,90 €
So when they say,
changing the finish, and are finalizing the new model.
This new model is it a Rev. 4
Are they changing other stuff too?

Risking redundancy -
We can only wonder...
Oh.My.God. A bead blasted BB!? I really need to follow this thread more closely. 
Edit: Nope anodized. But gorgeous all the same & I still need to follow this thread more closely.

Yessir, Mr. Balicious, anodized. I can't say for sure but I'm thinking that it MIGHT put my olive oil out business.
Does anyone know for sure?
I know, I know -

So its a silver anodized? Nice, I like it! And yes, I would imagine the anodizing will make the door much smoother, I noticed the same on my REO between raw aluminum and anodized.
I think that orange one is my favorite color though! Man, I have to wait 6 more weeks to buy another lol

Hmmm, thinking some of these would look great as face plates on the new colors?
Hawaii Lure Paua Abalone, Mother of Pearl Shell Veneers
Thinking this for my Blue BB. Cutting the button hole precisely...have to figure that out.

Hey maybe there is a way to get this done retroactively! Wouldn't that be a hoot if I won that J-wrap contest, AND get them to start a new face plate line for the Billet Box. Still feeling lucky lol.

Vapian thanks for updating the FAQ! Exactly what I needed to know. I had to use the olive oil trick right away after I spilled a whole tank full of juice trying to swap a carto I had burned up! First carto even with 25 drops priming it I didn't punch the holes right and it wasn't feeding. Worst burnt coil taste I ever had!
My BB came in Wednesday, and the batteries thurday from RTD. That was a long 24 hour wait!
Then I had to run around to multiple B&M looking for a carto that would fit. Finally after the third B&M i found some flangless 2.0 ohm carto that were just a tad to long. I grinded em down to get it to fit. Cartos are not for me but the favors is really different! On a few juices I liked it on others not so much.
My Billet Bridge came in today and I'm really loving the BB now!
Few Questions.
1) I have noticed that when the batteries go out on the BB and I immediatly put them on my charger one reads 3.2 to 3.4 and the other battery 3.6 or 3.7 is this normal? These are the recommended battery. Seems like the BB should drain them both equally.
2) I was so happy with how the BB felt in my hand I couldn't imagine wrapping it. However, it already has a few small scratches was amazed at how easy that was to do. Is there a safe way to polish the scratches out if I do chose to put a clear j warp on? Has anyone done this?
3) That blue one looks awesome! Is it really 8 weeks till you can order agian?
Thanks guys for all your help! You guys make vaping great! Wether it's my local B&M or here on ECF such awesome people!

Yes the battery thing is normal. They are wired in series. It's a quirk of the BB.
Don't know about the polishing.
Yes, it is 8 weeks before you can order again.

1. Mine do this too, seems normal. Do try to keep them in pairs though, I number mine so I keep them together.
2. I use Mother's Billet Metal Polish, just because I had some already (great for bike chrome!). Any mild polish should work, just check the label that it would be safe on aluminum.
3. Yup, it's to slow down the flippers.
