Well flavor testers aren't perfect, I know it'll taste a bit different in other tanks and things. However when testing like cotton candy flavors solo to get a base reference, I don't need to run 5ml to tell if a flavor is funky. Some just aren't even close.
Much thanks to
@Huckleberried and
@DonBaldy for the suggestion. Looks like a clean simple rda. Went ahead and grabbed one along with a pei cap/tip set because those were only $5. With the new customer 10% off came right to $19.50 or something shipped. I don't mind restrictive direct lung, that's what I get off a kayfun v5 wide open. But man that hadaly wide open is like trying to suck start a Harley with a pixie stick.
Rda is my weapon of choice for testing because I can just yank the cotton and stuff a new piece in. Don't even have to tuck it into the channel/well, just a flat strip of cotton and wet it a little for a few puffs. If I need I can drip and get a few more puffs. The 810/510 option is a perk. The wasp nano was an idea, it was out before I picked up the hadaly but everyone raved about it as if it had been blessed by the Holy Father himself and crafted by monks. A lot of people bitching about the heat and spitback from the nano so I skipped it. Maybe I'd have been better off.
That's the second supposed 'flavor' atomizer I've gotten that was bunk, the other being the taifun gt3. Also a clone but hell all the kayfuns are clones and they kick ass. So are my rda's and they have good flavor. I at least expected 'decent' flavor even if a clone was only 7-8/10 to the original. Since they seem to be around a 2.5-3/10 vs people's claims I'm skeptical and probably saved a boatload of money. Fingers crossed the axial pans out. I'm sure a fused clapton will give more flavor than a simple round wire coil which is what I've been using in the hadaly. But it's so tiny never occurred to me to try something bigger. Especially without the airflow to cool it off.
@Just Frank you may have to just play with coil placement and take notes. That happened with me with the csmnt. Everyone was saying put the coils near the airflow. Some said get it where the airflow is under the coil, so you can just see the bottom of the coil through the airflow slot. Others said no no, put it directly centered with the airflow. Still others said put it so the coils are low and the air skips across the top of the coils. I tried every which way but loose and was only getting mediocre flavor. About to give up I went against what everyone said and put the coils almost straight up. Just a mm or two between them, way away from the airflow. Suddenly I got deep full flavor out of it, go figure. Why it didn't work the other ways I have no clue. But that's what ended up working for me so I've stuck with it. Sometimes you just have to forge your own path.
Any bans here are just individual cites so far. Oh well, it saved me $20...
