- Thread starter VapeRN
- Start date
I just finished watching BOGAN,
He should've reviewed the BOREAS not fucking compare it to the supreme, they are similar but different, I'm gonna bitch slap that dick head... CUNT
The BOREAS like what raymo said is a WORK HORSE, a builders tank,
I just can't wait to get these 2 cunts in my hand damnt!!

I don’t like his style, he just goes too far with the attitude.
Just wanna say STS has the best CS
VAPE IT
Yes they do by a long shot! I emailed them with a problem at 2 am and they responded in minutes and got me a replacement out immediately.
Just text them, it's instant
I didn’t see the text contact at the time, I heard the business is run by one man, guess he never sleeps.
Like Roxy lol

They really do. They respond to emails no matter what time you hit them up at, and they do whatever they can to help you out. Along with Lightning Vapes they have the hands down best CS in the game.
My Boreas should be here tomorrow if all goes well. Originally the tracking said Monday, but when I check it now it says some weird shit about not found or not responding.

I put some transformer coils in the Boreas and now I like it just as much as the Supreme, my liking of RTA to RTA seems to bounce between what juice I'm using, what vape I want and the coil build installed.
That being said, evidently Smoktech is releasing a TF-RDTA, if you look at the TF-RTA information on VapeNW it shows this preview in the description. It appears to be an RDTA style with the quad slot (not sure why not just use two on a velocity style deck, like the Aromamizer V1, two air holes will be hitting.. posts.) airflow from the TF-RTA and the TFV4. 16mm deck, so likely 15.8mm true size. 5ml capacity, 24.5mm. I can't say I'm expecting much, the TF-RTA I got in the mail yesterday is basically a 22mm Griffin that's been resized to 24.5mm and has only managed to hold one more ml of juice. That quad coil G4 geck is a NIGHTMARE to build on and it's largely pointless. Ah well.
Point being, evidently the Supreme and Boreas have a new big RDTA competitor, though I think the Boreas and Supreme will gangrape it in an ally.

USPS is down? No shit? DAMN, I have four packages in transit.
Also here's the leaflet for the new TF-RDTA, to be honest I don't see it doing better than the Boreas or the Supreme. Just scroll down, it's in the description. http://vapenw.com/tf-rta-by-smok

Anyone looked at that link I showed? That TF-RDTA just looks like a major 'me too' in the RDTA world, because it has nothing to offer that the Boreas and Supreme don't do better. By the way, to any fellow Boreas owners, if you can either make or get a hold of some transformer wire, USE IT IN THIS RDTA, it unlocks a whole new world of potential with the Boreas, I'm getting identical if not better flavor out of the Boreas now than I am the Supreme. Seriously, it takes this tank to the moon.
Where?i missed it??
There's no stopping now bro, it's cheap anyways!
Whatever makes you happy bro GO....
By n sell bro, I can see myself just using 25 mm tanks all my 22 will FS
I do needa sell some shit. Ive got a giant box of juice and a good dozen tanks and rdas that are going totally unused right now. Shits taking up valuable real estate.
Nope, thank you smok
Sell sell now...

I have a stabwood DNA200 with a 6,200mah 25C 3S Lipo I made. Hell just making this thing cost me like $320, so the price of the AxisVapes M17 doesn't even seem unreasonable. I am NOT a woodcrafter so I had to buy my own stab wood, that shit is UP THERE in the price range. For real though that TF-RDTA looks like a pathetic hand raise, I've been using the TF-RTA for a day now and while it's not bad there's nothing that makes it stand out. It's basically a 22mm Griffin, same deck size and all in a 24.5mm package, making the 25mm Griffin or ANY 25mm tank a much better option. That G4 quad deck is a NIGHTMARE to build, I put quad 2.4mm three wrap 28x2 with 32ga fused claptons in it and I could BARELY fit enough wick into the channels because it's a quad coil deck sharing two coil builds worth of juice channels. Do not buy this RTA unless you just like the looks of it, and definitely get the G2 deck version if you do, the G4 is hell on a tank.
Oh no sir, SMOK THINKS WE DUMB!!

It's not a bad RTA, it's just a 24.5mm version of the 22mm Griffin, the build deck has 15.6mm of true build size and it only holds like 4.2mls of (true capacity) juice. It's also VERY cheaply made, the quad coil deck is also really gimmicky and overall worthy. I'm sticking with my Boreas and Supreme.

Bite the bullet and get the SS version to avoid the wait, the Boreas and the Supreme are the only two devices I even use now. VERY nice devices, I just can't make up my mind on which I like more due to my nature.

Powder coat it, just remove the deck, the o rings, the drip tip and the tank glass.

I'm keeping my eye on the Smok to see how it does. Obviously I need to pay more attention now to what's coming out, and what people like. I don't know if I will have the chance to do more past Boreas and Merlin, but I hope so 
Black is due in to Subtank Supply on Tuesday. DHL is a day behind it seems.

The TF-RDTA is a velocity style deck 16mm (probably 15.6-15.8mm true space) RDTA with side airflow using four airflow slots, seems like the flavor will really take a beating since two slots will be hitting essentially nothing. Roxy, put some transformers in your Boreas if you already haven't, your tank design was destined for those coils. Is the Merlin an RDTA, an RTA or an RDA if you don't mind me asking?
as some wondered how is the boreas with low wattage , single coil ?
had an idea ..its great ! my mod does not require to alter anything on the tank .
comparing it to a dedicated single coil tank..the batchelor,,,side by side .
made an insert from food grade high temp silicone to reduce the chamber , blocks the one air hole , blocks 2 juice holes,
coil is 1.2 ohms , twisted, rayon wicks .flavor and general tootle puffing as good as any dedicated single coil atty.
no leaks .,powder dry ! no dry hits . vaping with 2 air holes open now at 14 to 15 watts
roxy nice to find you again !!!!

I do not, I bought it from a local shop called Vapenotiq. The dude there made it. It's like a single or fused wire setup using regular clapton wire with ribbon wrapped around it. There's likely videos on how to do it.

Actually you may be in luck, sadly it's premade coils not wire.

Thanks. I would rather get a spool or those wire shots so I can control diameter and wraps.

So far I seem to favor the Supreme more for my flavor builds and the Boreas more for my juice chugging cl0udz br0 builds. I like them equally at this point, they both have their place. Nice design Roxy, if I were a single coiler I'd likely get the Merlin. I haven't built a single coil since 2014, literally. I even have a Serpant I managed to fit an enlarged version of the old school Kayfun/Russian 91% double barrel dual coil variant in.

I've dual coiled many single coil tanks by stacking them. The Ubertoot and Tilemahos to name a couple. I do like single coil tanks, too, though. I especially like them late at night (vaping a Lemo as I type this) so I don't get hyped up on nic before bed.
