Hello all been vaping 3 years and keep seeing posts on facebook and on here about the billet box or the sxk clones, ive never looked into them as they sound complicated with wierd names for tanks etc.
Could someone please explain all these tanks etc as im looking into buying one, my style of vaping is single coil squonkers but reading up noticed they sell a tank with the Kangor stle coil deck which i own 5 of them still but no longer use.
Any help or information would be great please.
Was looking at the DNA60 sxk and dont want to waste £129 on one if it wont match my style of vaping.
Cheers
Grandad

Basically youre not changing the tanks but the RBA heads that fit inside the supplied tank like and old style carto tank. The main clone candidates are the exocetand the insiderThere are other options but they arent cloned yet so have a higher price tag. IIRC the sxk billet box comes with the adapters to use either kanger occ coils or the rba head (but as you say who'd want to). Ive got the insider and though its a nice vape it is tricky to wick and the afc is hit or miss on mine. The exocet seems too be the foolproof option. All single coil and You can pretty much vape any style from DTL to MTL.

Thanks for that phtumshk sounds like the exocet could be the one for me, so all the tanks are the same its just finding what coil is best for me really. I would prefer the real deal but at the moment the price tag is pretty high as pennies are tight due to ill health but feel i need a change in my vaping style to keep me off the stinkies, cant believe in 3 years of vaping i have never looked at the billet box.

You got it, its pretty much a mod with the tank inside. I forgot to add that naturevape is the place for billetbox clone stuff in the UK but obviously the price doubles over the china stuff. Hope you get to felling better in the newyear.

This one has the DNA chip and comes out at $129 but using the code MAP gets it for $101.95 www.fasttech.com/products/8610200Comes out at a tad under £77 Quite how long the wait is, is anybodies guess. Cheers Neil

If you look in some of the sales groups on FB you can pick up an authentic billet box for not much more than a clone.

Sorry, missed all the tagging - us women are mad busy organising Christmas for our families and I haven't looked at my PC unless it was online festive shopping
