Hi @antonherbst - the picture shows exactly how it fits into the BB. Once installed, you can build and test on top of it - I have used it with both the SXK Insider and Exocet - until @TheV told me that I can actually build on any mod.

So you don't really need it. I bought the SXK vetsion

I have this thing as well and it’s a great travel companion because then u don’t need a tab or another mod to build on

At @RenaldoRheeder and @Amir Thanks for the feedback and explanation. It makes sense now. I was under the impression 1 could use normal RTA's on the BB with this setup. (But my mind told me that would look stupid and it had to be used for something else)

It can do that as well but I left it out because it’s pointless. Nothing fits on it without looking ridiculous

Morning guys,

So I'll be receiving my first SXK BB tomorrow with an Exocet and some XXX, really excited after reading this thread

I'm sure I'll be back with a few questions after attempting my first build.

First of many Q's:
I built the insider with a 3mm 26g ss 316 7wrap 0.6ish ohms. Lined it up with the taller post and haven't had any dry hit or leaking issues, the only trouble is the flavour isn't as good as I expected. I am running the same juice in my trusty serpent 25 in dual coil and the flavour is just soooooo much better? What am I doing wrong?
The other Q is regarding the insider vs exocet (I'm sure it has been discussed somewhere), which is the airier and more flavourful? (I only have the smaller of the two chimneys for the insider for a point of reference).

So I got my BB today! Did a build in the Exocet and the vape is oh so nice! Had a bit of a disaster at first... the glass on the borrow was so tight and I accidentally cracked it while trying to take it off Went to Naeem at The Vape Industry, he sorted me out with a new tank and filled it up for me.

Yeah that glass is crazy tight when you first get it, good on you @Naeem_M for sorting him out!

Yeah he saved the day lol. I probably would have broken the glass on the new boro tank as well.

I built the Exocet with some Ni80 fused clapton, 2.5 ID at 0.4 ohms and wicked with Royal Wick. So far no gurgling or leaking, pretty impressed with myself

First, I find the Insider to be more airy. (Big chimney). But the Exo has better flavour.
Secondly, for me, some may not agree, the insider had almost zero flavour with round wire builds, only when I got a Ni80 clapton, or flapton in it, did the flavour pop.
Haven't tried and alien, but by how the Exo went up in flavour, I'm sure the I sider will benefit from that too.

Also, try building 2.5mm Id coils. Increases airflow quite a bit in both

I also use the insider with 3mm 26g SS316. Try lowering the coil closer to the airflow slot. About 2mm above the airflow slot works best for me.

When I worked with my first boro tank, I realized that I was going to break it. So I stopped and Googled. The suggestion was rubber kitchen gloves and push on the sides. It worked like charm. And once you have lubricated the red oring, no more problems.

I should probably have done the same, I can get a bit overexcited with new gear. At least now I have a spare boro and I found a shop that sells the glass only.

@Cliff - my experience relates to the SXK Exocet and Insider. I have only used normal round Ni80 2.5id 0.4-0.6 ohm coils. Initially I batted with the Insider until I read a post by @Rob Fisher where he mentioned that the cotton must only touch the juice holes - not lie in it. Now both give me fairly equal flavor. On the Exocet I removed the airflow ring, but left it on the Insider. For the gurgling, play a bit with the airflow setting - I suspect it has something to do with it.

Guys, I need to refill the tank but I can't get the glass to move? Am I doing something wrong or is there a trick to it? The tank was lubed up before the first fill.
