RDA switch?

So today I tried an RDA for the first time. It was just a little Mutagen xs, but I think I am hooked. My question is, are RDAs like the Tsunami good for "on the go"? I read it holds about 2ml of juice. That's damn near what my Gemini RTA tank holds. Can you just fill the well and be good for 30 puffs or so?

I am really debating whether I should switch from Tanks to RDAs. Problem is, I already pre-ordered the Griffin 25 RTA lol. I am considering ordering the Tsunami in two days, which will be here before the Griffin.....I am wondering if I will ever even open the Griffin after getting the Tsunami, or will the extra maintenance (constant dripping) stear me back to the ease of a tank.

Alot lf us swap around. personally I use an RDA most of the time a rebuildable tank depending on the situation, and a subohm tank when I travel, for the convenience.

There are plenty of the, out there with deep juice wells, I have Kennedy witch is similar to the tsunami, also the new stillair4 is another good one for bottom airflow. The aelus lite is also nice, it has top airflow. since it has the airflow from the top, you can cram lots of juice in there without leaking. another one known for its deep well would be the magma reborn, they are a little hard to find still

The Tsunami will not hold 2ml of juice...Especially with Coils in it, I think your thinking of the Magma Reborn..which will without issues. The Magma's Juice well is much deeper, wider and the pipes and posts arent taking up as much space as they are in the Tsunami, this is why one holds much more juice then the other. I tend to redrip every couple draws with the Tsunami and the Magma I can draw around 25 times before dumping a crap ton of juice in it. Coils and wattage will also determine how long you can keep taking draws but your results would be similar in ratio.

So far, I've been using RDAs at home, mainly to test my DIY recipes. Out and about, I'm using tanks. However, that might change due to having bought a cheap 60W Squonker by Steam Crave. Basically a mod that has a little juice bottle in it, when squeezed, the RDA is being filled from the bottom, through the hallowed pin of the 510 connection. Therefore, there's no need to re-drip. Kanger recently came out with the Dripbox. However, the Dripbox can't be regulated, nor does it have TC, and I'm not impressed by the RDA that comes with it. Luckily, I already have two RDAs that came with a bottom feeder pin. Another two are on the way.

I never worry about how deep a juice well is... i usually drip every 3 or 4 hits.. maybe more sometimes, depending.
Drip drip drip...
