What I've learned on ECF. By KD~



DPL is a big man and admits stuffs. :cool: :rolleyes:

BlueSnakers has a grab bag of name choices for your new B Box. (Sorry, but I believe Bawled Moth-ah Fork is taken.) :censored:

KD talks to people who don't know that she's talking to them. :facepalm:

Peter C is a non-woman. :shock:

D of J has aim. Or game. Or somethin'. :rickroll:






And bushmasterar will be getting a B BOX!!! (fingers xxxxxxxxxxx'd!) :w00t:

Hey guys, I noticed that when I popped my batts to charge that one batt is fully drained (1.79v), while the other one is still fully charged (4.12v). Im using the red AW IMR 550mh (2.0wh).

Any thoughts?

Yes you should only be using the black protected AWs, not the red ones.

May be of interest to those with leaky Divers...

I bought mine from Atmistique in Greece (none in stock at the moment, I just checked), and along with it two 5-packs (10 euros apiece) of pre-made coils & wicks. The worst "leaking" I've had with the pre-made was a very light "condensation" behind the tank. I decided to change the coil a week ago; and instead of the pre-made, replaced the old coil and silica with cotton and a 1.5 ohm NR-R-NR wire from fasttech. Vaped good, and no sign of leaks. However, when I changed the tank yesterday, I found the back of it was soaking with e-juice. I'll use more cotton next time...

I take exception to the implication, Ms. Darling. Did you not notice the vowel at the end of my name?

I don't know nuttin'. I didn't see nuttin'. And I ain't sayin' NUTTIN'.

:2cool:

What, exactly, were we talking about again???

NO, in fact I did nOt nOtice, DPL.

Agree with the Snake, calv1n. Use the protected black AW batts for your B Box as recommended by Doug Dino of Billet Box fame. Also, it's a good practice to marry your paired batts. Use them together. Charge them together. Keep them together. No presents, showers, or wedding parties necessary.

Rules or no rules you're missing two important points.

1. - You recovering from surgery and should be in major sympathy mode.
2. - You just hit your vaporversary.

You're currently owed 1 new BBox per the rules. :rules:

Do I have to pay for it, or just email the CS peeps at BB?

I finally got some time between work and my annual spearfishing trip to work on the oldest of my three Billet Boxes. A little polishing goes a long way, but don't get to aggressive folks. I think I rubbed the carbon fiber right off!:D

What do y'all think?

Well damn. You absolutely ruined that BB. Just go ahead and send it to me now as it is just too ugly for you to own. Lol

hey guys i had a couple brainstorms today, really suggestions for DD, I think a BB without carbon fiber panels could be a pretty good seller. one in full polish (i know i know) so that the owner could have the sides engraved with their own design as is so popular with zippos. and i would like to see one with no panels in OD green or coyote tan for us military guys. personally if i had an OD green or coyote tan one i would be using permatex (a high grade silicone) to glue a set of Airborne wings on. I learned harley riders use this to glue challenge coins on their bikes at the laconia bike rally, new concept to me as i ride a honda sport bike

Does anyone know of anywhere to get a Billet Bridge here in the states? I was gonna order one from Atmistique today, but they're on holiday already :(

I received my new Fawkes and it's gorgeous! I got over excited and fired prematurely (it happens to us all) and scorched my carto on the first pull. Blech. Have another soaking now and guess I'll have to wait until after work today to really give it the run through.

And start it out low. Maybe a couple of dry pulls first too, just to be safe.

I did turn it all the way down to start off with but still hadn't given it time enough to soak I guess. I forgot how bad a burnt carto tastes. I did go with the Boge slotted ones so I figured it would seep right in, but alas, no.

I'm fully impressed with the quality of the build. Even after watching plenty of videos and reviews, I'm still impressed more than I thought I would be. It also ended up being smaller than I thought it was, which is a pleasant surprise. I'm bummed I haven't got to vape it yet.

You can try Dashvapes (in Canada). They have appear to have stock.

La la la la la.............. :hubba:




Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would be THIS excited to own this most magnificent work of art. I have received not only a dream-come-true anodized B Box, but all the love, good wishes, complete thoughtfulness, and creativity that accompanied it. I am truly grateful. DD of BB, you are a master crafter artiste!


I thank you sincerely.... from the bottom of my heart. :wub:



It is GORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGEOUS! Stunning, in fact! I didn't realize how vastly different the anodization might feel, until I caressed it in my hand. The door doesn't go ka-lunk.... no, it softly glides up, then there's a quiet little "k'link!". It is awesome!!! The color is rich, and its sweet, sexy satin finish has the most intriguing sheen that shifts with the light of day. The hues kaleidoscope from a deep blood red, to a maroon, to a bright red, to a subtle dark pinkish red. The mamma of pearl button is smooth and shiningly iridescent. Pics, of course, do not do this justice!

If any of you are sitting on the fence, jump OFF! (besides, that can't really be all that comfy, is it?) ;) This is a treasure, and will be loved and admired and given tons of TLC! ♥ :wub:


In honour of Bett's B-Day and some other very important celebratory milestones... I present to you, the new baby! Ain't he schweet!!!




Welcome Home, Turk R. Nove-Dieci !!​
