Hi All, Anthony Vapes back here with my review of the Voopoo Pericles RDA, please see the bottom for disclaimers and links. Note: This is not marked as a sample version
Introduction:
The Pericles RDA is the latest RDAs from popular vape manufacturer Voopoo who really doesn’t need much of an introduction. Most popular for their drag mod which is still popular to this day almost 2 years after release, voopoo has made some good mods but are now trying to make some atomizers too. This is their 4th RDA to date and i’ve only reviewed the rune so far which was great. The Pericles RDA is a dual coil DTL RDA with an included squonk pin. It’s available in 10 color combos. The 5 main colors are Black, Silver, Rainbow, Blue, and Gold but some have multiple trim options such as Silver with rainbow trim. Elementvape has them listed at 23.95 USD and i se a few sites in the 25-28 USD range so plenty of options and very affordable price point.

Initial Impressions
When I first got this RDA i was really impressed with the design of it. Like I can pretty much sum up the review right here and call it a day. It’s nothing new or innovative but they took one of the best build decks which is the same deck as the cheetah 2 RDA which was also used in the bonza and paired it with one of the best airflows for flavor the kennedy airflow into 1 RDA. I mean how can you go wrong with that combination? Sure it’s not innovative but I haven’t seen those 2 paired together before and it’s a great pairing so yeah overall pretty impressed from the start.
Build Deck and Wicking (pics above)
Let’s talk about the build deck now. It’s a 2 post 1 hole and 1 clamp per post deck that’s staggered out. It’s a really cool design that works well so kudos to whoever came up with it. It was first seen on the cheetah 2 RDA and then made more popular with the Bonza RDA. Unscrewing the clamp screw makes it drop down to create clearance to slide your lead into and tightening it raises the clamp back up to clamp it against the post. The other hole on each post is a standard hole with a top down screw more than large enough to accomodate most coils. Each lead gets their own hole or clamp and you can install each coil by itself. The post screws are good quality flat head screws. No complaints there. Overall one of the easiest decks to build on that works great with round and fancy wires.
Wicking on it is quite easy. It’s an RDA so nothing fancy just drop your leads to the bottom.
Performance
Performance wise, I used it as a Dual Coil RDA only, you could run a single coil if you wanted like any dual coil RDA but there is no blocker and you can’t close off one side of air so not sure why anyone would. I ran 4 builds in this a fancy 3mm ID build, a fancy 3.5 mm ID build, a fancy 4mm ID build and 1 simple round 4mm ID build. For size I found it worked well with all those sizes and as many wraps as you can fit comfortably in it. It definitely likes a big coil and has plenty of air. Even with the round build though it was great. The flavor is excellent and one of the better dual coil RDAs for sure even with the simple round wire. Overall a very good dual coil RDA flavorwise.
