Now I just gotta figure out how I'ma trick it out and make @~Don~ throw up a lil bit :teehee::D

Slap some gold on it, drip tip, inner panels, screws

But honestly I’d do white.

Mostly for the engraving is white and reminds me of the Ford Thunderchickens convertible with white interiors, white wall tires

No gold for me, can't do it, lol. Wish I could because it is by far the most readily available. I got to ordering last night, and ran with red/black. A favorite combo of mine :)

I've heard good things on that one.I just bought a Flow V2 last night,because i've heard good things on it too,but at least with the KRMA i can get a clone haha,so i'll definitely be trying it out too.

So I've gone through about 3 boros of e-juice with the Flow v2 and decided to purchase a 2nd. But my vaping style is DL or RDL and I have no interest in MTL. My understanding is that the best MTL flavor is when the airflow restriction is on the intake side of the coil. Units like the VapeShell do this. (I'm not at all familiar with the KRMA.) I thought I should mention that the Flow v2 uses (Delrin?) inserts in the chimney on the exhaust side of the coil to restrict the airflow. It comes with 3 of them. I'm thinking that this may put it in a category where it is not as flavorful as some of the other MTL RBA's available for the Billet Box.

Here's a picture on my dirty keyboard for info purposes:

Someone on the Aussie forums bought 24c gold wire. Tracked down TCR for it.

Lots of time and expense.

Said that he couldn't notice a difference from SS316L
I looked into gold wire awhile back. It's hideously expensive as one might imagine. Like 25 bucks a foot or something.

Good to know thanks.Your post about it the other day is what got me interested in the Flow V2.I had always assumed it was made for mtl,since the Boxxer is more dl,i figured he had done one for each.I'm strictly Dl or Rdl as well,so had no interest in a Mtl setup.Once i read your post,i went straight to Odis's site and was going to add one on my existing order i'm waiting for him to ship,but got a great deal on a brand new one from a guy here in the states,so instead of waiting for god knows when Odis will ship,i'll have this one Monday or Tuesday,can't wait to try it out.

That sucks. I guess I can't complain. I got 3 billets with mine plus all the accessories I'll need. Lol.
I'm good with my RPG. I haven't had the itch to buy another since I got this one for some reason. Only vape related thing I've been eyeing is that Clutch mech... when the funds are available.

I need to get some more nic before this NY flavor ban takes place though, re-up on some flavorings, and stock up on Caliburn pods since the FDA ordered Uwell to take them off the market. Panic buying is fun.

Yea panic buying is a rush sometimes. Lol. That definitely sucks about NY bans. You ever need anything lemme know. They label me an Outlaw, outlaw. Sorry Tupac popped in my head right then. Lol. I love the billets and really have no reason to buy another authentic. I'm kinda scared to take them outside. Lol. The clone I take to work some days. But it's hard to worry about a $300 mod when I'm mulching or throwing pine needles around. Don't wanna scratch or get them dirty. Lol

Has everyone seen the new dvarw fl, love the glass tank and new threading, any opinions or does anyone know anymore. Got my 5 year vapeversary coming up and might be on the shortlist for a treat

Get one if you had issues with installing slightly larger coils; I don’t see a big enough improvement to grab one.

I don't qualify for the stimulus ;)
Ahh Ok. The problem has always been more money more bills. I know there are millions that think they couldn't live on my pay. They make up to 100 thousand more than me and have 100 thousand dollar kinda bills. I think if someone makes that much the little 1200 isn't going to help them anyways

California and its overpriced everything ;)

We get paid a lot more than lets say the same job in Georgia, but that ratio difference still favors Georgia way more...

Without going into detail... we are good, not liquid rich, heck our accounts have less than $750 in them at most times; although that is by design, but yeah I would of liked the $1200.

Did anyone score on the Billet Box drop today?

I was able to score two genuine Haku Titanium Xetas, one gunmetal and one blue, in the Never Normal group. I sure hope they are quieter than the Titanium clone that I have.

The rabbit hole gets deeper! :tantrum:

I tried, but whiffed again. The RPG with the M.O.P. button (forget what they call it) was around forever, but I couldn't justify the extra 30 bucks knowing it would instantly come out.

I mighta bought the button from you. I think they have M.O.P. and Paua at the high end.

Anybody know where to get a copper button and drip tip?I seen a picture of a BB with them today,and now i want them haha,but 2 hours of searching,and i can't find copper anywhere.

I think it was the Paua, what's the difference? I'm also pretty sure I have one if you are interested.

Yes, if it's the genuine BBV button. They have a paua or mop face inset into a stainless steel button. Their quality seems to be so much better than anything else that I've been able to find.

Idk if it is genuine. I got it either through buying from some here or trade. Not sure, but think it came from @BobsHere , maybe he could verify?

I think I would only trade it for another button/buttons anyway, so might be a moot point?

If BobsHere had it I believe it's authentic mop. Although I could be wrong. Lol. I think it would look great on your new Fawkes

The MOP button does not look like the one that I have but it may be an older version? IDK The SS button looks like aftermarket.

OK, I zoomed in on both. The MOP button does look like the BBV buttons.

Is that the bottom-side of the SS button? It's hard to tell from the picture. Here is a shot of the BBV Stainless when installed.

@Jinx'd made a copper rda cap for one of his rdas. I wonder if he could do a copper 510 tip. Other than that not really sure
Cool,hopefully he'll pop in here,i'd buy 1 from him quick haha.I would guess if he made a cap,a drip tip should be easier,and a button should be even easier than that.
If i had a metal lathe,i'd be all over trying to make one,but i only have a wood lathe,so it's not much good for this issue haha.
