well, the color sucks, but I love my nano's - mind you, I have just managed to really-really FILL the jug-mini for the 3rd time today.. Maybe it's a parlor-trick.. Flavor on the jug is at least as good as my nano's.
The jk mini fills best for me with the merlin mini bubble glass.

I think I will go with the JK clone, but how will it stand up to the Gerar RTA , FOOTOON AQUA MASTER V2 RTA or the
Geekvape ZEUS RTA ? I like the build deck on the Footoon..

The Footoon Aqua Master is a bottom air flow RTA- really nice flavor, but completely different than the Zeus OG that is top air flow so wicking while important, will not get leaking like the Aqua Master if wicked wrong. I only have these 2 along with the OBS Nano that I use. The Zeus OG and the Nano are both top air flow RTAs and have less chance of leaks and condensation. I really think the flavor is better on the Footoon Aqua Master, I like that RTA better than the Nano and the Zeus for flavor.
I cannot help you on the JK clone or the Gear RTA since I don't own those.
Maybe @Heartsdelight can help- she owns some of these RTAs, she has the Aqua Master and the Juggerknot mini- I don't think she has the clone though.

The Footon Aqua Master is a bottom & side airflow rta, marketed as a MTL - Restricted DL. And it is restricted but the flavor is very good indeed.

For me you can’t compare the AquaMaster with the OG Zeus or the Juggernot Mini. As the later 2 are top airflow Direct Lung rta’s that yes you can turn down the airflow to 1/2 as I do for a more restricted draw.

I think @Mr T needs to first decide what type of draw you want.

If you want something most like the OBS Engine Nano I would say go with the Juggernot Mini clone. If you’re interested I can post the sku of the one I got @FT. I have 1 authentic & 1 clone of the Juggernot Mini & imho tbe clone I got is just as nice in quality as the authentic.

I don’t have a Gear rta but I don’t think it figures into the equation as it’s only a 2ml tank.

I am a slightly restricted DL vaper, please post the SKU of the one you got :)

The clone I linked you to is what I have so I can only tell you about the one I have. I have heard also the Shenray makes good clones. Only advise I can give you is read the FT reviews & discussions tab. And make an informed decision based on that. The one linked to is SS cuz that’s what I wanted & the one you linked to is black. Good luck!

Zeus single has incredible flavor. Zeus X for either large single or dual coil. Both easy to wick and not finicky.

OP, I my opinion, you won’t find a better top AF single coil RTA.

I tried the JK out and it perform well, the only issue I have is that it is o lot of spit back if I fill it up all the way. I get o lot of juice in my mouth..

Don’t have any experience with the JK, but when that happens with any other RTA, it’s generally a wicking issue. You might need more wick in the channels.

If you have the authentic it fills better with the augvape merlin mini bubble glass. I also found raising the coil a bit improved flavor and performance. I use a 2.5mm coil in them these days, better than the 3mm I started out with originally. With the nanos I prefer a 3mm.

Actually the jk mini chokes easily and does have a definite sweet spot for wicking.

Yes I am using very little cotton in the channels. And I am using the bubble glass

Raising the coil? the legs on my coil is 4,5 mm, do I need longer legs? ( there i 25,4 mm in an inch)

I'm a Nano junkie and love the qp designs juggerknot mini. Single coil, top air, easy build/wick, great flavor. FT clone is very good. Have several of the authentic and clone.

This is the bubble glass that fits for spares.

qp makes good shit. I have their KALI v2. It's a good RDA but it's freaking enormous and my builds end up being really power hungry. 90W+.

I just got a pair from FT.. So far, not really impressed except as a spare to my Nano's...

You can't really FILL the bubbglass - it just refuses to ditch that last big air bubble.. Now, amusingly, I nuked my VG a little yesterday and DID get a full fill, but before bed I was absolutely unable to repeat that refill - ended up with bubbglass maybe 3/4 filled and ejuice all over me.

You can fill the straight glass easier, but the capacity is LOW..

Try covering the drip with a finger (making it airtight) when you are filling and remove finger once filled AND filling intake closed. Had the same issue with JK’s and this solved it.
