That looks like a real winner. Just a question out of curiosity. How do you fit the coils inside the tank it seems to be of one solid construction?
So far so good... the top comes off and is press fit with an O-Ring... simple to pop the bridge into and the juice fill hole is big enough to pop the tip of a Gorilla Bottle into... I have a feeling the rubber plug for the hole may be an issue but let's see how we go!
Oh wow that is definately a different way to have it done and i might have like you said a problem with the filler plug. But the rest seems like a winner. Only time will tell and i know we will see the results here as you share with us. Thanks for the reply Rob.
Already like it more just because of the removable top

I also assume condensation plugs don't fit @Rob Fisher ?
Wick offcuts thenYip they do not fit.
Some more stunning integrated tips...
Here is the nugget with its new accessories...
BB Pit Stop... all done and ready for the boro's to be installed.
My first wicking of the BB.
Don't laugh but I haven't rewicked it myself before.
When I got it, @Rob Fisher had kindly coiled and wicked it for me. I vaped on it quite a bit, but worried how was i going to figure out how to rewick this while in the heat of VapeCon preparations. (Those last two weeks were hectic). Then a week or two later at VapeCon Rob rewicked it for me on the Thurs night.
I haven't vaped it much the past 2 weeks because I could tell it was going a bit off. Had vaped plenty tankfuls
I found it quite easy actually. Not too many challenges.
R2 coin to take off the top ring part. I was a bit baffled how to remove the Exocet but then figured it out. Lol. With these things i have learnt not to use force, in case i break something.
I discovered that I could fire it on my Pico. Hehe. RiaanReds fused Clapton looked good again after some pulsing and streams of water.
Wicked with CB2. Incidentally Rob, i have a feeling your wick is slightly better.
Am loving my LIT Sidechick at the moment, so that went in.
Lubed all visible o rings.
And voila! It's vaping beautifully! This flavour is gorgeous. The BB is back in action.
@Rob Fisher I think I made the wick tails a tad bit too short. When installed they don't quite touch the walls of the Boro tank. They protrude out but not by much. I hope it's okay and doesn't give trouble down the line. But so far so good
Not sure how well you can see in this pic.
Anyhow, very happy now

Glad to hear your two left hands made an easy task of rewicking. The Exocet is a real no brainer and such a pleasure to use. Great device for on the fly.
With regards to the wick tails being short, I don’t foresee that being troublesome as long as the entire slot is covered. I also like to go very short on the tails, a mm or 2 off the chamber has worked for me brilliantly. Just keep an eye under the boro tank behind the condensation plug for excess condensation and moisture.

Thanks @Amir
It did cover the entire slot
Its a 2.5mm coil and i used enough CB2 so it was quite snug, not overly tight
So was enough to "fill" the slot when closed up
I love how easy it is to just snip the ends of the wick and push the cover back on the Exocet with those slots. So neat and easy
Am i correct in saying that if the wick tails are a bit longer, you might be able to vape the tank. Bit more empty? Ie the tails slant to the bottom that can pick up more juice? Or is that not the case, because you just hold the BB sideways and the wicks pick up more juice anyway?
Somehow or the other, fluid dynamics and thermodynamics and science bla bla what not, even with short tails I still manage to get the tank almost bone dry. It’s a miracle really. There’s no other explanation. The caping gods smile down on the BB with approval.

Ooh the flavour on the BB / Exo is lovely.
It has such a nice vape. Not too much. Lovely draw for me. Just how I like it. And only on 24 Watts.
I missed it. And it's the first time trying the LIT Sidechick in here. Very nice.
I want to see how many tankfuls I get before noticing a change in flavour.

Mine honestly just doesn’t give up. The only way I know I need a rewick is there tends to be a little dryness at the end of a long pull. You should throw some Panama at the BB it’s insane. It’s got all the fruits on the inhale and icy on the exhale. It’s a strangely intriguing Vape.

Thanks for the tip
Thanks to VapeCon, my vaping is way , way behind where it should be @Amir
Been on "maintenance mode" for far too long, except for the new BB, which was an opportunity I had to take at the time it came.
I dont have Panama, I still need to get Calamity Jane or about 5 other juices...
But I am slowly getting back into the swing of things and hopefully I can catch up pretty soon
Sorry for the delays but you seem to be doing brilliantly @Silver. I've been putting off rewicking for a day as my bbs need maintenance for the new week but I've been busy upgrading servos and receivers for some rc toy's
Great
Show us the Rc toys when u ready!

At least u cant use the cotton for that. My rc toy needs some TLCSorry for the delays but you seem to be doing brilliantly @Silver. I've been putting off rewicking for a day as my bbs need maintenance for the new week but I've been busy upgrading servos and receivers for some rc toy's
Spot the bb!
I got tired of buying these R400 jobies at checkers and then they were broken after 2 days.
At least I can now limit the throttle electronically and replace parts when I need to etc...
