Hi all! I'm looking for an original Cyclone cap that hasn't been drilled. I have the Cyclone BF but the cap has been drilled and that's too much air for me. So, if you have a cap that hasn't been drilled or the complete atty in original, non AFC Cyclone, please let me know.

Are you referring to the Hadaly or is there another cyclone I'm not aware of?

This is the Vicious Ant Cyclone I am looking for. It is a very tight MTL draw if it hasn't been drilled.

I probably have one that hasn't been drilled, but I'll have to double-check. VA Cyclones were my most-used atty until the O-16 came along.

OK Mr. Bear, I dug up my Cyclone collection.

Well, those that aren't currently installed on a mod:

I suppose the three in the center might appeal to you?

However, I'm not interested in money.

So what have you got that I might consider an interesting trade? :D

I've got a B2k Caviar and a Hadaly with the additional ultem top from Psyclone and yes, the three in the middle did produce a fair amount of salivation! Ahhh.. who am I kidding? I was drooling!
Oh, yes, a Matrix v2 authentic.

Whatever brew doesn’t take I’d be interested in possibly :)

Lol I just want a nice MTL RDA, so if you do I need suggestions. I want a nice tight draw.
Really, it depends on how tight a draw you like for mtl. I have an authentic Matrix v2 that has a tight draw, but still a bit loose for me, more like a drilled out cyclone.
Also, there is the Cyclone AFC, that one has more air but also different flavor, @Rossum explained it best, the chamber interior is different than the Cyclone v1

Really, that's about it, unless you like the Matrix v2. I don't think I have anything else worthy.

Chalice III. Tiny chamber and AFC that can be closed down to essentially zero.

Cyclone. No AFC, but a $6 set of drill bits between 1 and 2mm lets you decide how tight you want it. Stock is damn tight.

O-16. My current favorite.

There were quite a few others too, but they've generally fallen out of favor, and people who like an MTL vape are reluctant to part with 'em now 'cause there's nothing new available to take their place.

That is sacrilege! If you want a Cyclone AFC (not BF ) I have a new one! Oh, yes, I also have a drilled out Cyclone v1 BF, the reason I'm looking for a cap

Meh. To each his own vape. Although I'm a confirmed MTl vaper (and there's a reason the 'l' is lower case), I've come to like a bit looser draw over the years.

I have a Cyclone AFC; it's in the pic above. I don't care for it a whole lot. As I've mentioned before, I think VA ruined it by trying to keep the height/diameter ratio the same as the standard cap; this means lots of dead chamber volume up top.

Oh, yes, I also have a drilled out Cyclone v1 BF, the reason I'm looking for a cap
How much is it drilled out? You know that drillbit set I mentioned? You don't actually have to use it to drill holes. You can also use it to gauge existing holes, like "A 1.5 mm bit fits easily, but a 1.6mm doesn't" (which means it's probably a 1/16" hole). If it's not drilled out too much, I would consider an even trade for a virgin cap.

I just checked, it is 5/64 ! So roughly 2 mm.
That's a bit too airy for me as well. I'm liking 1.6-1.7mm in a Cyclone cap.

Doesn't sound like much difference, but remember the area of the hole (and thus the airflow) goes up with the square of the diameter, so 2 mm has 1.56 times the area of 1.6mm.
