Is the TugBoat RDA really that good?

I use a Mutation X V3 and Veritas. I have a mech coming and thinking something different for it. I read a lot about how good the TugBoat RDA is. Is it really that good, as compared to what I already have? I see some mech sold with the TugBoat. I am only interested in flavor. Clouds are secondary.

Thanks for the help.

If you are favor chaser then there are a number of RDAs as good or better than the Tugboat. That does not mean the Tugboat is not nice. It is. So is the Veritas for flavor. I find the Mutation is more of a cloud chaser myself but you can build it for flavor too. My favorite flavor RDA is the APO.

Sapor, Aeolus, Manta V2 are also good flavor RDAs. I like them as much as I like the Tugboat.

I bought a Tobeco Aeolus V2 clone from Vaping Walrus, $18 shipped.

Thanks
You'll love it, I believe. I only recommend RDAs, that I own myself, and I do have plenty (currently 53).

Just broke out my plume veil clone. Could not build it at first but now easy. Thanks for the info.

I have an authentic aeolus and an authentic tugboat. Both are constructed extremely well, with excellent fit and finish!
The aeolus definitely wins in flavor over the tugboat.
Where the tugboat shines through is that it is a little easier to built on,(not by much and an arguable point) the real win for it are the extra caps that flawless makes for the tugboat. Currently, they offer 4 different caps that I know of which lets me change the performance of the RDA by swapping the cap and that using the same build. They have a square cap(have not used that one)
A glass cap-which is great flavor
A slam cap-shortens the height, more airflow a little better flavor and bigger cloud
Anarchist cap - real cloud chucker.

- the caps do fit the clones
-both rdas will work on mechmods

Hi there...LOLOL. How the heck do I turn off these alerts on my email?
Go to the top of the thread and click "unwatch thread" then click it again when it changes to "watch thread" and a dialogue box will open up asking you if you wans emails or not. You only have to do that once, it will automatically make the adjustment on future activity.
