So I sold/traded my last billet box when I had some things come up for me that I needed the money for but I also chose it as it was something I could do without. I got tired of the cartos. Then I quickly realized I missed it and the firm factor and kept reading about rebuildables in it so I got another one. I have used cartos for sometime and grew old of them but thought I could be new again....LOL. Well the cartos just are not cutting it for me. Maybe since I have been using a kayfun lite and discovered cotton wicks, my expectations of taste have gone up BUT a BB family memeber was kind enough to send me a home made rebuildable for it and I just cannot get it to work without a lot of fiddling and with the billet box that makes it pretty in convienant. I don't want to work that hard for my vape :). So a friend had a diver and I tried it....same thing. Same friend had some of the IKV cartos so I tried one to see if it would be the answer.....Ho hum.....any other suggestions before I decide to move on. Maybe just maybe the BB is not for me, hard to fathom but a possibility I guess. I won't so bad to love this sweet box of pure sexiness but we went to bed mad at each other last night and I fear our relationship may be coming to an end if we don't seek counseling.

Sometimes you have to take an honest look at your relationship, stop hoping for change, take action and make a change happen. If you want to make that first step to happiness, I'm here to support you! Maybe a trial separation with a third party (me) taking temporary custody your baby ( my precious ) could allow to see if it is meant to be, or not. If you love something, let it go. If it's real love it will return (maybe). PM me if you think this advice may be the answer. I feel it is. You deserve happiness (as do I). Moving on maybe the best thing for you (and me). PM me, please.

Just kidding (not), hang in there it's worth it (no way). Kataphraktos and Akdare almost have the Diverv2 figured out (maybe). What would I possibly do with 2 BBs anyway (just try me)?
LOL

I've been using Divers almost since the V1 1st came out.. I get a good vape from the Diver and the V2 is an improvement.

I've been following Kat's BB solutions in the Diver forum so I am pretty confident that it will rock!

Yes the Diver's can be a bit temperamental but once you nail the build down for the device you are using, it's smooth sailing after that..

My :2c:

I don't think many people like cartos.. Me personally, I hate them with a passion but I love the Diver!

Looking to score a BB and plop a Diver V2 in there..

:thumbs:

Count in me as one of not-many. I've tried everything else and am back to 100% cartos. It just goes to show...

My main gripe with cartos is that I have never used one that can keep up with my vaping style.. I vape a lot (about 5-6ml a day) and the cartos just can't keep up wicking / feeding the juice..

Maybe I need more holes punched? I've tried the 2 hole punched ones and no dice! I've never tried the slotted ones though.

And then there were two...

Love cartos in a tank! :wub: :wub: :wub:!


And raqball, DEFINITELY try the slots for the B Box. They work very well!

I wouldn't bother. It doesn't matter what you DO like, just that you like SOMETHING. It's probably just your tastes like the non-carto. I vape 10-12 per day and it works fine for me, but I'm the only one that matters in that particular case.

Same with all of us - vaping SHOULD be done selfishly. Strokes & folks (and all that-there). :toast:

I just received the v1 Diver pin to try in my Diver v2, but I thought I'd try a carto again in the meantime...Boge SR with the single 2.3mm hole...but this time, I punched another similar sized hole opposite it... Primed very well using the condom method...sooo much better! Highly recommend this to those with a BB and a big box of cartos...

I will be experimenting with the diver with the v1 pin this weekend...I'll let everyone know my findings here and on the diver thread.

The only thing I can think of is possibly a Raven? It's a carto with no filler. They need to be cut down a bit, I used an old pipe cutter.

If you'd like to try one, you can PM me your address and I'll stick one in the mail for you on Monday. Much better than having to come up with an order to the vendor big enough to justify the shipping charges. :)
