Silverdove it sounds like you're a newbie to the sometimes confusing & too technical world of e-cigs! LOL! You mentioned the SI Nano ... I started with Smokeless Image 808 kit also. Moved quickly into a Riva 510 kit with bigger unregulated battery & an atty! ("You mean I drip the juice down into THAT thing?" YEAH! I remember THAT frantic hour long Saturday morning call to the VERY nice Vendor that sold it to me!! LOL!!) Trust me ... I spent countless hours & days & months reading (often backwards ;-)) to find answers to my MANY questions! Along my journey, I've found that there are lots of good folks here that are willing and really want to help you along the way (Kat & retird are two that come to mind who have put up with & answered my many PM questions along the way - THANK YOU guys BTW! <3). In the ever changing world of e-cig technology & tinkering there are others that sometimes forget a good majority just want to keep it as simple as exactly what you said ... "Pull out a stinky and light it!" The most important thing to remember is NEVER go there out of frustration! There's always someone willing to help you ... And no question is a dumb question! It's a search for making e-cigs work for you! If I can help you in any way ... Just PM me! Ask whatever you want on the thread and somebody will see it and try to answer! I'm still learning even after a year, and yep ... Still ask what some might consider ridiculous questions! LOL! I still keep plugging along! There are some pretty amazing peeps with vast technical knowledge and modding abilities that I find so interesting and that I'm truly in awe of!! But I have no problem at all admitting that I don't have a clue sometimes! Haha! YOU have done REALLY good my friend in finding this pretty spectacular BB device early in your e-cig journey! We'll get er done! ;-) ... Don't you worry!

Well said 2423kids!! X1000 Silverdove if you need anything to keep you off of the stinkys let us know! Just remember that there are lots of us who went through the same things when we started!

morning all what little so far I been trying to catch up and understand all being put here but if u wrote me something sorry no answer back, I haven't gotten all read yet. been fiddling with this baby T3 from SI It was the greatest thing I thought but after I refilled it it only wants to gurgle and I read somewhere about someone doing something and it would work again but have not found the post. LOL did find out u don't blow throu the bottom or top hole to clear it lost most all my juice. "BOY" IT WAS SO MUCH EASIER TO PUT A LIGHTER TO A STINKIE AND RELAX!!!! But I mustint no NO NO NO. OHHH my mind keeps sayin come on one wont hurt ya. But NOOOOOO I don't want my kids to see me on Oxegine for 10 years like I did my Mom. Oh time to go again, catch up with ya all later. Hope all have a good day.

Ohhhhhhh ... And I got so carried away I forgot to address your question! LOL! Okie Dokie ... Last time I read about SI they were introducing the Nano clearomizer that holds just 1 ml of juice. You stated it was a T3 ... Hmmm I'm assuming SI has an 808 version if you're using SI batts. What I've found with ANY of these clearomizer thingies is that they work BEST when you don't let them get too far past 1/2 full. Get down to 1/3 full and you start getting the gurgling and leaking probs! When I use any clearomizer I fill them back up when they get to about 1/2 empty and they work MUCH better! Just MY experience with em! Hope that helps! ;-)

Wow! It looks like I missed out on the preorder event that happened over the weekend! It looks like there was a lot of excitement in the thread. I guess that's what I get for neglecting the thread, lol.

Grats to everyone who made the list for the next batch. Trust me, you will not be sorry. This is the most remarkable device you could wish for. It is well worth the wait. The batteries actually last longer than the 18650 I use in my Provari. The tank holds an incredible amount and is super easy to fill, making this truly an all-day, hassle free device.

Unfortunately, hubby is just going to have to wait a bit longer for his. I'd feel sorry for him, but somehow I don't. I'm more thrilled for those of you who will be getting your hands on a BB for the first time! In the meantime, I'll just have to keep a close watch on mine to make sure hubby doesn't manage to snag it from me. I think I'm up for that challenge. This is a BB, after all!

Sooooooooo glad you're LOVING your new BB Tiger! Watch that hubby ... They can be sneaky little devils! LOL! ;-)

SD, might I just inject a few comments to this discussion....having been around vaping for a few days I have come to the conclusion that the "perfect vaping experience" really boils down to a device (battery, and/or cicuit), an atty/carto,rba, etc. and an e-liquid that, when put together satisfies your desire. There are numerous combinations that can be used to achieve your desired vaping experience. The bottom line, I think, is that a device only delivers power to the atty/carto/etc. thus heating a coil to a specific level which delivers vapor in a specific concentration to satisfy you needs. Our goal is to find that balance. What meets my needs may be different than what meets yours. There are many devices, many attys/carto/etc. and many e-liquids to choose from. Once you find that "perfect set-up" it becomes almost natural and simple. Of course there are new things coming out daily to try, and that's great to try them because you are already satisfied with the 'perfect vape" you already have found. At that point you can determine if the new thing enhances your "perfect vape" or not, but at least you are still satisfied with your normal vape, tried and true. To get to this point we all have spent time and money experimenting to find the best vape possible. That is our journey and our goal. Thank goodness we all have had help from others getting there. Your journey is not unlike ours, the only difference is we started earlier.

I have rambled far to long here, so will only say....Ask your questions and someone will be happy to help out...you will get there....hang in and NO Stinkies.....

Like I said ... retird I <3 you!! LOL!! ;-)

With all that ... Silverdove you've made an exceptionally good choice with the Billet Box coming to you in just a few short 6 weeks or so! We'll get ya thru until then with whatever you're using now ... Or maybe a few added inexpensive extras! You're gonna LOVE THE BB!! ;-) Til then ... Seeeeeeee I told ya ... LOTS of helpful kind peeps here!

 

[xpnsvtoys]

I would start with a slim UDCT/Artemas tank...same diameter as your eGo. Also get some single coil cartos.

Gun Metal Artemas Slim Locking 510 DCT, Clear
eGo Gun Metal Cone for the Artemas Slim

Took your advice, ordered some today, got some single coil 1.7ohm cartos and some single coil 2.0ohm cartos to try with this...We'll see how this goes, hope my Ego batteries can hold out till my BB makes it in, really don't want to buy any more of them unless I have to...

 

[Absintheur]

6 weeks is a long time to work eGo batteries hard...hope they hold up for you.

I surprisingly have some ego's that have lasted a couple of years with moderate use, but then again my friend's got two of them that started overheating and damn near exploded, so YMMV

Oh, he continued to use the dangerous batteries out of desperation, don't do that lol.

 

[bk78]

So for incoming BB are the black AW battery's the best ones to get?

 

[2423kids]

Those are the ones that Mr. DD sent out with his BB kit ... And the ones he recommends. And welcome to BBville!

 

[DGR_Spec]

Actually I was going to suggest checking that one out. Ordered one a few days ago.

Do you find you get minimal deforming with it??

Yes it works great... cartos stay as round as they can be when punching. To mark the holes, just use the sharpie marking method but as of late i've been a RBA guy so the only thing i use cartos in is my BilletBox

 

[Absintheur]

These Ravens may have ruined cartos for me...lol. If they start making a standard without flange I may end up out of cartos all together.

 

[SilentEcho13]

These Ravens may have ruined cartos for me...lol.

Ah, what the hell. Ordering em now lol.

 

[Absintheur]

Just try a couple...throw one in a regular tank and vape it...I think you will be surprised.

 

[Crocky]

Ok, I use the bullet carto punch for my cartos for the BB and curious what you guys methods are to making a punch larger. The bullet only goes down so much. I have tried a nail and hammer to make the punch I did slightly larger with success ONE time. The other times it dents it so bad.

Right now I am finding 2 decent sized holes on the bottom and one a little above mid way works great, now if I can just figure out how to enlarge the holes I am set!

6 weeks is a long time to work eGo batteries hard...hope they hold up for you.

My wife has used 2 pass thru ego batteries from TW for the past 2 years. Nothing else same 2.. still going strong. I used ego batteries from the time they came out until the odysseues was released. Even tried to mount it on the ego... ( it looked real bad, and didn't fire)
So it must be something with the knockoffs. I think the actual joye work great. That will finally change in mid June for her..

Getting ready to order a tank and curious what tank you guys recommend. Just want something I can use when not huffing my BB which is seldom e now a days . But I would like to be able to use my boges as well as try one of the ravens on it

I suspect the Ravens are similar to the diver.. If so I agree looks like I've got some spare cartos. .....

OK, just ordered me some Ravens too LOL. Gotta see what all the hub bub is about. Still wish they made the Stallion in a standard tho. If you do use a DCT tank at all I suggest you give them a shot, I was amazed at how much VTF the put out
