IMG_0031.JPG This is what I'm using the most right now. Sigelei 213 plus with aromamizer plus. 3mm Id clapception coils 6 wraps ohms at .23. Also gotta recommend this local juice brand anonymoose joose out of Portland Oregon. Best juice I have ever vaped hands down this one is the forager, green apple tobacco and honey suckle. I know it sounds crazy but if u come across it BUY IT lol.

Totally agree. It's getting harder and harder to recommend a +150$ mod when there are several very good $50 mods.

There are several good $50 mods around but I have no problem recommending the Cartel Revenant that is $150 to someone looking for a unique mod with a quality board. I have two of them thanks to people like @MannyScoot that bought all the mods that I had purchased and never used. I don't like internal batteries and just sold my last one. I have owned many $50 mods that ended up being trashed because they were made with inferior components. There are some really nice ones out there right now but the jury is still out as to whether they will last. I have a Vaporesso Tarot Pro 160 coming today that has the same board as the Revenant so I can compare the two.

Yea it is kinda hard to spend $200 on a mod with so many quality mods ou for $50-$100. Although in the future I want to get a good DNA mod. I haven't owned one yet. Im thinking something like the boxer, they just look built to last. I just want to make sure it fits 30mm attys flush.

I like the looks of the triad,
also like the finder 250 also. Has anybody seen the new tuglyfe 250 mod yet? Looks bad ass, I just am always leery about built in batteries.

These are the center of my collection, I have a few more RTAs and about 8-10 RDAs . I Just don't use the RDAs very often unless I am sampling juices. Once the RTA market started to take off with actual quality tanks I've been hooked on them.

Some Lipos are good , they can be swapped out and good with DNAs they can balance charging , so if battery fails you can swap them out either via an plug or soldering,

Yea there are just a few more RTAs I want then I'm thinking about filling out my squonking collection a bit more. I have a drip box 160 from kanger with a couple squonk RDAs but I'm wanting to get a real good side airflow Squonk RDA. I have a tsunami 24 set up for squonking but it's just too easy to flood if I'm not paying close attention.

All Sqounking atties are too easy to flood TBH the more you use the better you get at knowing when an how much to do , side airflow allows a little better room to play , nearly all my RDA,s are side airflow just prefer it to bottom , too easy to flood or over drip , too messy my best dual coil RTA,s are also side airflow
Only my single coil RTA,s are bottom airflow direct centered under the Single coil deck , works better with single coil builds ,

Yea I am always flooding my tsunami 24, it takes me longer to squonk it than it does to just take the cap off and paint the wicks lol. What RTAs do u find yourself running most often? The only single coil RTAs that I have are the tfv4 mini and the pharaoh dripper ...although calling that pharaoh a dripper is really stretching it. It has a 2ml capacity lol.

Hussar RTA
Origen MkII 6ml RDTA ,
Ijoy Exo RTA single coil deck
First 4 can also be restricted for MTL also, so dual purpose, lower power,

Right on, I don't MTL vape myself but to each his own. I want one of those exo RTAs, looks like a well built versatile tank. I have been trying to find a good lower wattage rta to put on my pico. I have been using either a avocado 22mm or the 22mm moonshot but I'm always on the lookout for something new. I like the size of the pico for stealth vaping but it sucks u can only use 22mm attys on it. I would like something on the smaller side but that can hold a 24-25 mm RTA.

No, that's the Eleaf Ello. Comes with the mod if you purchase the kit. Nice little tank. Has a 2ml and 4ml mode.

Damn, I just unloaded a bunch of mods so I could buy another SXK DNA60 Billet Box. Why does everything have to be shiny and cool?!

You dont have to MTL any of them they are standard pretty good open draws, for DTL reduced pin for mtl is optional.
I run them on small single cell dna 75 mods or Ijust2 mods for daily use and pocket carrying.
Save my dual mods for dual Aromamiser builds usually.

The Exo RTA, 2ml -6ml glass can be single deck or dual deck ,
It can fit some big builds in there in single deck its great.

But if do want lower power the first 3 fit standard or thin Claptons in the single decks,
Can DTL on them all.

I'm awaiting a single Coil deck for my Squape x dream RTA ,Too supposed to be another good one
But until that comes wont be able to compare it to others yet.
I'm running SS 316 26g 3mm id in the single coil RTA,s for power or TC,

Really liking the
V2 Supreme 3.5mm horizontal staggered build which is quickly becoming my favourite dual build tank.
Such smooth airflow and perfect Flavours.

Yea I am a big fan of SS coils myself, I ordered 100ft of SS wire in 22,24,26,28 and so on up to 40 and haven't really used anything else since then. It's all I use unless I use some prebuilt coils. I want to get into making my own claptons but just haven't done it yet lol. I ordered some demon killer clapception coils and I love them. The ramp up is almost non existent.
