I got it second hand, $100. No way would I pay rrp. It's very nice, but like the mech way better.
Cthulu 1928 rsa. Hands down my favorite mtl rsa.
What is your go to build in the 1928? I have been trying it out, but it sure seems fiddly with that tiny deck. I am using round wire 26ga, I think 5 or 6 wraps can't remember which one fit.

26g kanthol, 6 or 7 wraps. What do you mean by fiddly? When trapping the leads, wrap them all the way around the screw head, so they trap on both sides. Makes Life so much easier 👍

Crusades RDA clone with a single 0.5Ω microcoil on a Wismec P80 using Artic Fox firmware.

PS: If ya wonder how I did a single coil in that atty, it is simples: a piece of black electrical tape covering the extra airhole. Ya can't even see it. ;-)

They just fit perfect and take a beating.
I don't need Metamucil, get fiber all day every day, lol

I have a Pico Resin that was one of the first box mods I bought, in about 2016 I think. I still use it, with a Wasp Nano RTA. Have a Pico Mega that's still going, too, but it's not as old as the Resin. They can't be beat, especially for what they cost. Best buy ever.

Had a 21700 exact same form but it left the house a couple months ago, as in one of my daughter's friends took it, I'm still unhappy about it. Perfect for the 25 mm attys, of course can't find them anymore.

I've thought about putting artic fox on the Pico but the TC actually works quite well as is on SS. About all I use it for now anyway is MTL and K1 coils.
