Question to those that own a Jaybo/wismec indestructible & a Vector, what makes the vector a better RDA than the indestructible? Looks like essentially the same design to me. Curious cause I've got the wismec version of the indestructible on its way & wondering if its worthwhile to get a vector also.
The vector is "leak proof", indestructible isnt

Look, almost any RDA can produce clouds and taste. A lot has to do with how you build your coils (resistance, high or low, clapton or regular kanthal, etc.). At the moment I'm vaping on a single coil 7 wrap clapton at .8 ohms on my Stumpy RDA. It's a clone - I generally buy authentics but the Stumpy clone is spot on. The flavor is amazing and I can vape this between 45-50 watts and get clouds too.

Now I have four compvape products all authentic - the El Cabron, the Twisted and the 13th and the new Double Vision. I build these with coils that are closer to .16 ohm. They also taste great. Sure the clouds are larger but I need to keep the air flow on half to get a dense flavorful vape. I do like them a lot.

But I like my Doge V2, I like my Hobo, I like my Phenotype L, my blitz Hannya and I like my Velocity mini. If I build them correctly they all perform well. I think you can over think atomizers. All have their pros and cons. But if you build them right I think they are all great.

Technically I agree with you, however what makes an RDA good isn't just the flavour or vapour it can produce. It's also to do with heat produced, it's the build deck, if it's prone to leaking the build quality. How easy it is to take the top cap off, the o-rings etc etc.

I love the Kennedy 24 because it's just a joy to use, gives me the right balance of vapour and flavour and the build quality is rock solid.

All im interested in from an rda is decent sized post holes and well with decent afc. Also that it doesnt get crazy hot with low builds at high watts and top cap options (510 drip tip, chuff, etc.).
I can take care of the flavor after that....

Edit: if it leaks, it sucks.

lmao!!!!!
I'm a freaking idiot sometimes. I bought the indestructible when it was just jaybo, for 50$, then bought the top airflow flow vls kit for 35$ and the cloudchaser kit for 35$
so I'm 110$ invested in an atty that I use with the cloudchaser kit on my hexohm. then when I bought the noisy cricket, I bought another indestructible from wismec, and its exactly the same. hahahaha gotta love vaping


Don't feel bad, I bought the "limited edition petri" just cause I wanted the extra airflow holes so I get it I'm like dope!!!!! Then I'm on here on that other thread we were on with the guy asking about the petri And I asked about your gold drip cap........put 2 and 2 and searched dot mods site and FUCK!!!!! I could have just bought the cloud cap and had the same result but now I have 2 petri's and the only way to get the cool gold 510 cap that comes with the cloud cap is to spend another 50 bucks.....yup gatta love vaping but damn that trigger finger!!! One more day and I would have noticed I could have just ordered the cloud cap. But whatever I have 2 Petri's now on 2 different mods so I can deal...but I felt like an idiot....and I still want the gold piece that comes with the cloud cap but haven't figured a way to get it without spending 50 bucks...but knowing me I will order one:(

My favorite is the twisted messes black and gold! I'm using it on a sigelei 150 watt tc and it's perfect! I use a tidal coil with 28 gauge kanthal and .8 ribbon kanthal. 6 wraps with a id of 2.4mm. Best flavor I've ever had in a rda. For clouds I use a mutilator.

Favorite RDA? Don't know. Have a few nice ones... The only two I own, that run completely clean & dry are the Vector and Aeolus Lite. Using the AL now. It's been on my LE80 for a week. I usually change out an atty every few days but in this case (running a 0.38 ohm dual coil build) it's been so nice... I've re-wicked a few times and dry burned the coils and kept on going. Clean, dry, no mess. Can't say I have a favorite except for this moment... in this moment it's what I'm using.

Well, @Izen, you were dead on about the Vector, so: That Aeolus Lite looks pretty good. I think that's going to have to be my next RDA.

Btw: I purchased a Vortice clone last Wednesday. Purely a case of New-Vape-Gear-Toy-Itis. I mean: It's a nice enough RDA. Pretty damn leak-resistant, which was why I bit. But the flavour just isn't that great. Maybe with some experimentation. But I gotta learn to stop buying things "Just because it's there."

Better to buy things for the right reasons. What those reasons are is a personal call. Everyone regrets a purchase from time to time. Best to unload it and move on. They say, "One man's meat is another man's poison." I don't know who 'they' are but they're right. It's a true statement.

I did the exact same thing with the original indestructible! Kinda felt ripped off when the wismec came out with the vls cap and ninja post.

The 22mm version of the Euphrat RDA, because its leak proof and has good flavor with a great afc system. Im just getting used to the 32,5mm version which could be my next new favourite if I manage to get the same flavour production (clouds are there now :D )

My favorite? Hmmmm...I own a few - Velocity, Velocity Mini, Twisted Messes, MutationX4, Double Vision, Sub Zero, Aeronaut, a DeadModz, and a Plume Veil. Right now I'm hitting the Mutation X4 but I'd have to say my favorite for flavor I'd the Twisted Messes with a dual staggered stapled fused clapton build in it. It's a very close three way tie for second between the Double Vision, the Sub Zero, and the Mutation X4. I like big chunky builds and those four let me throw whatever build I want to in them. I suppose if I drilled out the post holes of my Velocity it would compete.

I can only imagine the flavor of that build. One day I will build a clapton, maybe.

Has anyone tried the Aromamizer V2 RDA? I just bought an authentic one on a "wow that's cheap" whim.

I have a load of RDA's. Too many to count.... I would like to try the double vision rda. That being said...... I find myself always leaning against my hazz mini with a district f5ve kupcake cap and stumpy RDA deck.......

I just got the Double Vision and was vaping it last night with my Stingray X mech mod. I found out that the stainless steel top from my Twisted Messes rda fits it perfectly (they're both CompVape rda designs). This makes for a badass matchy matchy combo that gives up huge clouds and amazing flavor.
