First look at the Cthulhu V2

Thank you!
Of course. Glad to see a company with an affordable product line who still gives a damn about RTAs.
You definitely have to explain how that works
I just got the Mutation Indulgence RTA tank. Now my buddy has the Cthulhu. Honestly, I'm happier with the Indugence. Easy to build and easy to wick, better airflow, no leakage. I've seen it compared to the Zephyrus but really although they look alike they are different. And the Mutation is cheaper than the Cthulhu or the Zephyrus.
Now maybe this is not fair to say because the Cthulhu isn not my tank but I've seen it built taken apart and I have vaped on it. It has great flavor - no question of that. But you can adjust the build and airflow on the Mutation and also get very good flavor OR cloud chase with the best of them. Now I have not had it very long. It seems well built - milled negative posts, decent threading etc. Top fill is easy. Even the drip tip it comes with is nice.
I would definitely look at the Mutation before pulling the trigger on a Cthulhu. Of course, everyone has their preferences so it might not be for you.

right
I don't mean to bad mouth the Cthulhu but this thing was created by the devil or simply over designed the wick ring is pointless and the juice control is the worst when having to fill the tank close it and ohh look you unscrewed the whole tank tighten it back up and try again! then once it's full open it again if it doesn't lockup on you...... It's not a bad tank I actually love it when I find that one magical build that works for me (26g spaced Kanthal coils at 6 wraps on the dual deck) and it's full of juice on top of any one of my mods the airflow is beyond amazing the taste is ok for a tank and the look is awesome I can't keep count of the people that have asked me about it but if you're new to vaping the best thing I could tell you is stay away from this it isn't beginner friendly!!!!
Its got thouse huge ass juice channels I wonder if it will leak.. Not saying it will but hmmm kinda big
about leaking, please try to add some cotton to the juice channel. thx
Q&A for complaints of Cthulhu RTA V2 we received
- Cthulhu RTA V2 is a little complex RTA. We need more patient to get it work well.
- first of all, please watch our video tutorials https://www.youtube.com/user/leewendy2010
- Q: Why your team choose this liquid control design?(it is hard to turn)
- A: we found we can make a bigger deck if choose this liquid control design. And we make this function for high VG customer(because the juice channel is very big). Many customers tell us it is hard to turn. because we will bigger oring for this, it leaks when we choose small oring.
- Q: Could we top fill without close the juice flow? A: yes. please refer https://www.reddit.com/r/cthulhumod/comments/3qcsdb/qa2_cthulhu_v2_leaks_when_top_fil/
- Q: Cthulhu v2 don't come apart right, when we want to rebuild it.
- Als tighten the ss pin(http://imgur.com/KohgpTs) with 3mm flathead screwdriver when you change your new deck(we receive 4 same complaints and fix it with the same method). pls tighten the ss pin before install the copper screw. (we receive 4 complaints about this)
- Q: Cthulhu RTA V2 base will not come apart (is the threading issue?)
- A: It is not the threading issue. we need to tighten the ss pin (http://imgur.com/KohgpTs) before we install the tank part(if we tighten the ss pin after installing the tank, we will make the threading very tight and it's hard to unscrew). And please kindly note we must use 3mm flathead screwdriver to tighten it(small screwdriver can't tighten it right).
- Q: what should Iｄo to make it come apart?
- A: please unscrew the copper screw and then unscrew the ss pin(http://imgur.com/KohgpTs). pls take off the base part and then use tweezers(or Needle-nose pliers) to unscrew the deck.
- Q: I could not install the tank part.
- A: Please make sure you have turned the inner ring down ( http://imgur.com/xpijVCo). pls refer video:
- If you meet trouble with Cthulhu RTA, please feel free to contact us(on our sub-reddit https://www.reddit.com/r/cthulhumod or email:[email protected]). We will repy you in 24 hours.

final version
Got the black one yesterday, threw together quick NiFE48 build. Very impressed with performance even after rushing through everything. Build quality much better then v1, UT the juice control/airflow appear to have room for improvement. Have to loose up to get juice control to move, then be holding glass and base at same time. See others with issues, some go away after using a while. Anyway great tank, still would put the Crius tank above for performance and features. So far very happy with purchase.

The v2 has been a main goto tank for me as well, I gave up on juice control and find not leaking when filling majority of the time. I would put it level to the Crius tank (have 4). Also the Mutank and Mt are close.
Anyway similar experience, go either way between crius depending on mood.

I like the Crius better for my travel tank but that's only because of the threading issues with my Cthulhu when it comes to ease the Crius is miles ahead but wicking I have to give that to my Cthulhu V2, the flavor is about the same between the two just wish the juice control and top fill wasn't so hard to use on the Cthulhu because I really wanted it to be my go to tank.....
Strange, not sure what the threading issues are. Both are great, don't have any issues with Cthulhu top fill. Guess depending on day can go one way or another. Few of my Crius have seap issue, not intending on purchasing new base since not bad at all. Rather put to new tanks. Feel the Griffin and vcmt will be top 3 when I get them today / Monday. The Mutank is contender, but would prefer easy access deck.I like the Crius better for my travel tank but that's only because of the threading issues with my Cthulhu when it comes to ease the Crius is miles ahead but wicking I have to give that to my Cthulhu V2, the flavor is about the same between the two just wish the juice control and top fill wasn't so hard to use on the Cthulhu because I really wanted it to be my go to tank.....
