Should have came to Altsmoke first. Review by Michael

I have purchased quite a few mods in my short time of vaping (2.5 months) and then started to get into the e-cig forums. Everyone keeps talking about the Silver Bullet and the Omega. I was wanting one or the other. But with the initial cost of purchasing mods, atomizers, cartomizers, batteries, juice, drip tips, etc. I thought I just couldn't swing the extra cost. I finally got to a place where I had enough mad money to purchase a SB and quickly realized this is what I should have done in the first place. I can't take the thing out of my hand. It performs awesomely and hasn't let me down once. I absolutely love the Silver Bullet (Silver Vein). So much so that I have sold off some of my other toys and went ahead and purchased an Omega. One stays at home the other goes on the road with me. I love them both. I just can't always determine which one gets the road trips. Thanks Altsmoke for making my vaping experience so much more enjoyable. I would recommend all vapers to take this route. (Posted on 12/2/2010)

Excellent product! Review by Marco T & Amy W

I was browsing the ECF forums one day and I read of a Silver Bullet! I was like "What is this Silver Bullet" .. I had to check it out for myself. I was really satisfied with my Joye Egos using LR atomizers but kept reading how good the Silver Bullet performs! They were absolutely right! The amount of vapor that comes out of this thing is AMAZING. The throat hit is superb! I know this has been said before but I just have to repeat it! I keep throwing exclamation points after my sentences because the SB deserves every one of them! Right now I'm relaxing in my living room with an SB in hand and my favorite juice .. all I can say is BLISS. This thing is very well built! I WAS satisfied with the Joye Ego, but NOW vaping with my SB is "real" vaping.. at least for me it is.
What I truly appreciate and respect is altsmoke's customer service and ESPECIALLY the 'Live Chat' feature on the site that makes getting answers to my questions a matter of SECONDS. Props to Tyler for being there for me and answering my newbie questions!
So bottom line: Happy, satisfied customer here.. yes indeed! (Posted on 12/2/2010)

Silver bullet Review by Jbrady

I don't think there is anything I could say about the SB that hasn't already been said. It works well, it looks good, a descent price. If you get th black SB dont drop it on asfault or concrete, it scratches down to the silver and gets pitted easily. I tryed an atomizer I got from liquidnicotine.net, and it didn't work (Posted on 12/1/2010)

Awesome, even for a lady:) Review by LittleMissVapor

I got my SB about a week ago. I like it at 3.7 with a LR 510, but this thing rocks with huge plumes of vapor at 6v with a HV 510. Seriously, it's dangerous to drive and vape at 6V, you can't see through the windshield. I got it in silver, which at first glance you would think it would be smudged. It's not! The coating on it is some kind of miracle coating because I just wipe with a finger and any smudges are gone. It's big, ladies, and a tad heavier than my Little Chuck or GLV-2. However, for at home vaping, where it's safe to have a roomful of clouds, it's great. I recommend this product hands down. (Posted on 12/1/2010)

best PV on the market Review by tim j.

I've been using my silver bullet for six months and honestly, I don't see the need to ever buy another pv. Until I saw it came in silver vein. So I now have 2 silver bullets. Not only is it absolutely beautiful (no matter what finish) its built to work. Its solid, fits nicely in the palm. And with the flat elevator like firing button, there no risk of accidental and costly turning on while in your pocket. Its heavier then most but I like that. It feels unbreakable. Bottom line.....its amazin. Your not vaping unless your vaping with a silver bullet. Hands down, my opinion..its the best you can buy. (Posted on 11/30/2010)

The Best Vaping Experience To Be Had - 100% Incredibly Good Review by zeroed4x

11 out of 10

Yea that's correct its earns 11 points on the 10 point scale.

I've tried several other 3.7 mods and most were cheaply made, unreliable buttons, poor button placement, cheap feeling and just not complete lacking function, performance or other important variables.

The Silver Bullet ROCKS !

The Silver Bullet is built like a tank. It's hefty and feels strong. The case is made from aircraft grade aluminum alloy and if you drip it it will not dent like a cheap flashlight. The fit and construction are first rate. There are no short cuts taken with the fit or finish. The unit has very good tolerances is very precise and when you have it in your hand you then understand it is indeed a quality well made piece. I have the black version and its durable and scratch resistant. No maintenance is required except a wipe with some alcohol to clean the outside surface periodically. If you choose the silver finish you'll need to polish it ever so often. The silver is beautiful and like a mirror.

It's a large mod but its comfortable. I don't mind the weight as long as it is durable and it truly is. It feel good in your hand, its about the diameter of a quarter, it is 6 1/8 inches in length with drip tip, shorter with a cart and it fits good in my hand. I don't feel like it gets lost in my grasp while some others feel strange or to dainty. This is a mans PV. Time to man up boys.

Great button,
The best of any out there. Its recessed so it will not accidentally fire while in a pocket or bag. Common sense if there is no on/off switch but none is required on this model. The button is easy to engage and very precise. You will love the button, its a 10.

Power and Consistency.
It uses a 18650 type battery. This is important. Other batteries do not hold their power curve as well as a 18650. 18650 batteries usually will be rated for 2400 - 3000 miliamp hours. It will last for 1.5 - 2 full days of intense turbo vaping.
I believe some people might get even more. The greater the mah for a given battery, the more consistent the vapor production and for a longer period of time. Do you like the feeling and performance of your PV with fresh batteries?
Imagine getting that full power vape all day long. That is one key feature of the Silver Bullet. As other lower mah batteries deplete their energy, they also begins to provide lower voltage to the atomizer, this in turn makes you feel like your atty is flooded, needs cleaning or is starting to wear out. Its simply the lower mah batteries lagging in performance due to lower than nominal output. Not to worry with the silver bullet, it is 100% reliable and extremely consistent with its power and vapor production. Its also easy on atty's because of the consistent electrical discharge of the 18650 battery. I get more hours of usage on the same old atty's.

Performance is outstanding

It works with all atty's that I've tried but the best atty's for this unit are available from ALTSMOKE. Rob hand selects his atty's for his units.
Low Resistance 510 and standard 510 attys work flawlessly and operate with extreme consistency and the longest life span of any mods that I've used.
You need to make sure that you can see clearly while driving and using this personal turbo charged fog machine, you might consider using the fan/ac and or rolling the window down slightly for safety sake. This unit makes others look like toy starter e-cigs in comparison when pumping out the vapor. It's the absolute best I've ever used.

Some people want a smaller design, more normal look similar to a cigarette. That is all fine, PV's are a personal choice. Some choices in PV's are made on looks, size, portability and less regarding performance. Its all subjective "different strokes" but if you choose to NOT have to be required to swap batteries all day, you are going to love the Silver Bullet.

So far I can not find a single thing to mention that even comes close to negative or any type of problem of any kind. I know, that sounds strange but trust me I can rip other PV's to shreds and make the owners and distributors twitch, cry and curl into the fetal position. The Silver Bullet is truly the finest of the 3.7 mods available. Stop F'n around and get one before they are gone. You can thank me later, punt......

Alright, I sound like a salesman so its time for me to go, I'm no way connected to or working with Rob at ALTSMOKE, I'm simply a totally 100% satisfied customer with a PV that I will never stop using. The Silver Bullet when compared many other 3.7 pv's is like comparing a top fuel dragster to a rusty 1975 Ford Pinto station wagon. It was absolutely worth every penny I paid for it and I honestly love this PV. Its a brute, the 155 howitzer of PV's, its tough, its well made, its damned sexy looking, its reliable, its performance has yet to be replicated or matched unless you happen to own one of the other Altsmoke PV's but that is for review.

See you all on the vapers and the e cig forums............

Excellent product! Review by Mike

Overall

About two months ago, I discovered the electronic cigarette, and purchased a standard 3-piece unit. After a month of using the standard e-cig, I realized I needed something more; the 3-piece unit was not producing enough vapor. After extensive research into various devices, I discovered the Silver Bullet.

I ordered the SB kit, with the charger, two batteries, two atomizers etc. and received it in about two days. I am very impressed with this device. It is built to last, it's reliable and it produces tons of vapor, even at 3.7 volts. As far as vaporizers are concerned, I would think that the SB is one of the best, if not the best PV on the market. I am completely satisfied with this unit.

The folks at altsmoke are completely customer service oriented. They are courteous, quick, professional and knowledgeable. They were quick to answer all of my questions and extremely helpful in every instance.

The SB has been very reliable, and I can get at least 24 hours out of a single battery charge.

The only issue I had in the beginning was that I would burn out atomizers very quickly. Once I learned how to take long slow puffs, keep the atty moist, but not flooded, and to let the unit rest a bit between puffs, I have had no problems. The Silver Bullet's rugged design, solid build and innovative construction make it an absolute work horse.

I no longer use the cartridges. I purchased a good, metal drip tip and simply drip two drops directly onto the atomizer. I do recommend using the SB in this way but it isn't necessary; it just works better for me direct dripping right onto the atomizer. If you do this, just be careful to keep the threads clean and not flood the atomizer or you will burn them out quickly. When I was burning up atomizers, I would order more and they would be at my house in two days! Altsmoke is very quick with shipping.

I didn't mean for this to be so long winded, but I can't say enough good things about the SB and altsmoke. Silver Bullet is certainly top of the line. It's an extremely well made and reliable device and worth its weight in gold. Just remember to keep that atty moist and cool! If the traditional e-cigs are just not cutting it for you, then look no further. The SB is built to last and to perform! I couldn't be happier with my decision to own this fantastic product.

SB is a driving hazard Review by Ron

The reason i say the SB is a driving hazard is if you take a big hit blow out the vapor right in front of your face you cant see the road for all the vapor...lol...i have two, a silver vein and a black one,,, i have seven PVs the Silver Bullets beat them all hands down! (Posted on 11/29/2010)

VERY NICE PV Review by Anthony

I started in this vaping world with a Janty eGo, then went to the TW Tornado. I then built my self a Tekkeon mod and now bought a silver bullet, silver vein version, and i have tried many various cheaper ones. As for me the silver bullet is the perfect PV. I have to give this thing 10's across the board. It's mega durable I am rather clumsy some times and drop everything. This thing has bounced on the ground many times and you can't tell it by looking at it. I am recommending the Silver bullet to everyone I know. (Posted on 11/29/2010)
