Bellus or Aromamizer?

[Invisible Rasta]

Hello guys I am looking to buy a new tank for my MIni Volt mod and i am lookink for these new tanks with airflow on the coil. WAtched some reviews and i still cant figure out which of the two i should go for... any of you own both of them and can tell me any cons you guys had with them?
The aromamizer with that rubber airflow adjustment kind of puts me off cause im pretty sure that the rubber band will move when i put it in my pocket... on the other side im not sure about the goblin black edition cause of the color... I had a subox black and all the color from the tank was just coming off... do you guys ahve this problem on the bellus black?

I can not speak to the black version of anything I own stainless on both, I will however point out my personal pros and cons on each

Aromamizer
Pros:

• With optional velocity deck a breeze to build on
• 6ml capacity
• steady wicking and no leaks

Cons:

• slightly muted flavor
• no actual direct air flow across the coils
  
• limited choices of drip tip
• have to remove the build deck to refill
• AFC is a vape band with holes in it

Bellus
Pros:

• top fill (removable cap, pair of holes decent sized)
  
• adjustable air flow
• option to do a single coil build
• air flow directly across coil(s)

Cons:

• temperamental wicking ( very specific, too much - dry hits, too little - leaking)
  
• extremely difficult to completely break down for cleaning
• tends to build up condensation at the air flow control ring
• occasionally can leak right after refill

again all of this is my personal opinion, I own both and I use both.. to pose a reviewers question if I lost them would I go out and buy a replacement? In both cases probably not.

Is therr any other with airflow on coul? What tank would you suggest Ember?

Buy a Griffin and save yourself a lifetime of pain and torture...

 

[VapeRN]

Yeah. Ray beat me to it. Griffin tops both of these. Haven't touched my Aromamizer since the Griffin arrived. It does everything the Aromamizer does, only better.

It beats every RTA Ive tested...and I dont really think theres many left I havent bought and tried. Its great design, its simple to build (Velocity style with biggest workspace and chamber), easy wicking, easy topfilling, easy juice control.... Its a bigger version of the Crius V3 with better materials used and bigger deck and juice ports. The deck is actually bigger then the Velocity RDAs and makes working on coils and wicking a breeze. All you need to do is lightly tuck your wicks into the ports and fluff them.
My favorite part is it will fit anything the Velocity RDA can, and that gives something people like me havent had....the opportunity to put advanced builds without downsizing them into a RTA, and the juice keeps up if you wick it right. It provides a true RDA experience without dripping.

i own a zephyrus version 1 and i really love it but to be honest i was looking for a smaller RTA... and with the option to build single coil for my mini volt

 

[smacksy]

Another vote for the Griffin! I got mine today and love it..easy to build and hits great!

the griffin looks pretty good, I own an obs crius (basically the same thing just smaller deck) one that I think is pretty slick is the [URL='https://originvape.com/product/hcigar-fodi-rda-rta/']hcigar Fodi it is sort of a next generation genesis[/URL]

Griffin vs the Aromamizer and Crius V3...Crius is smaller for sure but there is more then that that makes the Griffin much much better..

not owning one I can not say either way, so do tell what besides the larger build deck makes it better? I have seen reviews and the larger deck means a larger bell cover and a tighter space for thick juice to be displaced by air so more prone to dry hits with real thick juice yes? That is why I didn't bother with it personally

Correct all but the dryhits, the juice ports are exaggerated so wicking isnt an issue. You can open up the ports more also, not meaning the normal juice control either. I have had this almost a month and Ive only ran 5-6 wrap 3.5mm+ sized coils in it and can say that even chain vaping at 150w, you will not dryhit...if wicked correctly. There is a whole thread of Griffin first time owners feeling it out and heard the same thing but think its the best RTA to date after warming up to it. Here is the thread's LINK.

This is my build I have been using in my Griffin, if it couldnt wick it I would be in trouble...

okay, I will grant you the no dry hits, like I said I didn't bother getting one.. but I am real REAL curious to hear the "much much more" that is better about the griffin over the crius.. so again please do tell?

How about no weeping/leaking from AFC, Bigger postholes, much more room to work with, easier to work on, nothing is press fitted and everything is completely secure/sealed, the material used is 304 SS and not some cheap easily bent/torn alloy, insulator is Peek not brittle/cracked ceramic, and has adjustable pin. Thats what I came up with off the top of my head. Its a all around much better design, everything is +2 from the Crius, and much better materials are used to make it.

The Crius was a tank released before it should have been, it should of been refined and tuned in more then it was and the quality shows. There are multiple threads of how the Crius has a ceramic insulator that is cracked from the get go or after handling it a day or 2. The weeping is due to the press fit design and its cheesy gasket the deck is fitted with. The clone of the Authentic actually is a improvement as most come with peek insulator and some are made with SS. The Griffin is around the same price as the Crius in most online stores and I feel the choice is more then obvious.

Holding off on something better is only hurting you, not me or anyone else that buys it.

I am not missing out on anything as I did not care for the crius to begin with, so an improved version of don't like it is not in the cards
I never recommended the crius, was asked what I would recommend and agreed that the griffin is pretty good..
see quote below
I then suggested the Fodi
again see quote below

what you seem to have taken offense to was my apparently horrifying statement that the two were basically the same *shrugg* if it makes you happy I will revise and extend my remarks "the griffin looks pretty good, I might also suggest a hcigar Fodi" happy now?

I used aromamizer before,it goes well for me.But if you wanna buy now,I would suggest Griffin or Mutank RDTA.About Griffin,I have one,pretty good.About Mutank RDTA,it is the new one released by Indulgence,my friend strongly recommend it,so I got one from Vapor Beast,and it is on the way.

I was answering why the Griffin was Much Much better then the Crius, you did ask that in your post I quoted...nothing more. For someone that doesnt have either like the OP the Griffin would be a much better tank as it would last and have many less issues overall. That was the point when I first suggested it to the OP.

Not everyone vapes at 5 billion watts and builds with giant steel rope sized mega coils. We get it you love the griffin as you shit on anything but when ever someone asks a question and most of them tend to be new vapers. Im not saying its not good but damn man some people do vape differently than you. Not everyone wants to competition vape 24/7 and plow through quarts of juice a week.

And to his question I prefer the aromamizer to the bellus. I have a couple aromamizers and use them daily and its a good vape if set up right.

 

[domct203]

I've never tried the Bellus, but I do own an Aromamizer and love it. I use simple 3mm ID 26AWG Kanthal A1 coils at around 0.5ohm and get great flavor, and great vapor. I'd say the flavor is better than my Mutation X V4 dripper. As others have mentioned it's easy to wick and I find there is more than enough room on the velocity deck for my simple builds. The 6ml capacity is great, I make it through a full day of work (& a 25 min drive each way) and don't have to worry about carrying juice with me.

I'd like to try a Griffin, but for me the 3.5ml capacity is ridiculously small.

You amaze me how with ignorant you are...


Also Post has been Edited, for the Older Person in the Crowd....Sometimes I feel I should just not comment or offer the Lemon or Potato thats asked for...

 

[Emberwilde]

You people (Quick to Assume)

you (quick to fight) see what you want to see and ignore the actual content of a post then jump into defend your position mode like if you don't stop any variation in opinion the world will end!

let us recap shall we:

1. OP asks about 2 specific RTA's
   
2. I reply with my personal opinions on both since I own both I felt moderately qualified
3. you proceed to tell him forget that crap get your best in show (okay that works) (btw are you working on commission?)
4. OP asks me directly what I might suggest, I reply the HCigar Fodi (I also point out how the griffin seems okay based on my personal knowledge and experience with the crius a very similar RTA design)
   
5. you jump into attack mode because I simply mentioned the crius in association with the griffin

so here we are, you now berate another individual for not sharing your opinion
some of us, possibly most of us, are not paid representatives.. we don't care what anyone uses.. anything that keeps them off the stinkies is a win win win.. someone asks a question we think we can answer we do our level best to do so..

PS: your punch list of improvements in the griffin over the crius means bubkis to me as the issue i have with the crius is identical in the griffin..

PSS: this is my last reply to you, I find you obnoxious, offensive, and honestly I am to old to deal with this shit..

 

[WARCHOP37]

I don't own the Bellus but I do own the Aromamizer. At the same time, since this has turned into a sidebar post as well for the Crius and the Griffin, I own both. Of the three, I'd say the Aromamizer has given me the LEAST problems. I've experienced frustration with both the Crius and the Griffin with leaks from OR around the AFC, and the Griffin had caused me significant headache...til it started working. While it is a good tank with an amazing deck, I find very little difference in flavor among the three. Looking from a purely ease of use stand point, I love my Aromamizer; though not the prettiest of the group (the Griffin has that down), it has been my most consistent of the three. If that means anything to you, OP, hope that helps you in your decision. I would still recommend any of those three tanks though; you wouldn't be disappointed. Just comes down to preference.

 

[skiball]

I own the bellus and love it the flavor is #1 imo. I also find it easy to wick i use rayon and just stuff the hell outa it. I've never had a dry hit but have had leaking b4 i stuffed the channels. It is a bit of a pita to get apart the first time but after that it's np. Also id like to point out that it's really tuff none of the treads could really ever be stripped so it'll last yrs. The only other tank i have that would be comparable is the crius and there very similar in performance. Yet the bellus has a cooler more flavorful vape and is tuffer. Hope that helps!

My advice of what would look great on the volt mini is the diablo here a clone for 11$ https://m.fasttech.com/p/4194000
It's more or less a goblin v2 with velocity deck, better top fill (styled like a crown) and a flat bottom that won't put swirl marks on your mod.
