Howdy ya'll !....(guess my southern upbringing hasn't worn out completely)
So...I posted here because there didn't seem to be much activity in the RTA forum...
I've been Vaping for about 3 years.
The first few mods I tried didn't give me much flavor - and that is what I'm mostly after (I suppose everyone is), but I really didn't know what I was doing really
I couldn't get any results with the mods I bought (which were maxing out around 40 watts)
So a couple people I met told me I needed a mod with at least 200 watts of power and a sub-ohm tank
So I bought a Sigelei 200 watt mod, and a Moonshot Tank (?) - I can't remember what it was but it came with the Mod - and then I couldn't find anyone that had the replacement coils after a couple months - so I bought a replacement Vapresso Tank.
I can still find replacement coils for the Vapresso Tank but - problem is, the coils stop giving out flavor after only a couple days it seems...and I am paying $12 per 3 -pack , usually 2 at a time. That combined with shipping usually adds up to at least $50 every time I need coils...which is like every two weeks at the least...
I did some research on Dripping Tanks, RDAs and RTAs and decided to buy a RTA - a cheap one from China admittedly,
(I don't' remember the name/manufacturer)
....and I got some pre-wound coils and some cotton and a tool set and I was off...
And I got NO FLAVOR. I mean NONE
Ok, so back to buying $40-$50 worth of replacement coils every two weeks minimum - and that is only because I'm on a tight budget.
Saw some vids on YouTube about cleaning and re-using the coils, but it doesn't work that well.....
So I am SICK of buying coils every month, and I REALLY want a RTA that will allow me to save money on coils (as well as maximizing flavor ??) by just replacing the cotton and the wired coils, but I'm afraid that the same will happen - NO FLAVOR.
I'm thinking of buying a OXVA Arbiter RTA - it's around $30 - and that's from the same people I usually buy e-juice from (since very few people sell Pop Clouds - which so far, is the only e-juice I like)
I also did some research on YouTube about the OXVA Arbiter, and three different Y-Tubers all said it was a good to very good RTA in construction and flavor, and one guy added it to his "Best RTAs of 2021" list , and mentioned that is was a good RTA for beginners
So - I apologize for the long post - I just want to see if anyone can give me on any feedback...for a newbie to RTAs and fairly new to Vaping in general, as I've only been doing it for about 2-3 years...
I'm looking for a way to ease into the RTA and/or RDA world so I can get the most flavor possible, as well as save money on buying the damn coils all the time - )which the first tank I both with my mod - the replacement coils aren't even available anymore - so I don't want to have to go through that again with my Vapresso Tank....)
I'm just trying to make sure that if I buy this OXVA Tank, that I won't go through what I went through with the first RTA I bought - NO FLAVOR AT ALL - and I just don't know why that happened....
Anyway - apologies again for the very long post - any feedback or advice would be greatly appreciated
Thanks in advance
