Watching Top Gun: Maverick and feeling nostalgic, so I figured I'd go vintage big iron...

Cuboid w/ AF firmware
Ohmega Alpha One RTA, with a twisted 26AWG single coil. Yup, it's Comp Wire by Wotofo.
DIYFS RY4

Turn and Burn baby... :cool:

  • MCV Reactor clone
  • Flave RDA
  • An as-yet unamed juice I made this morning.
(it's got DIYFS Holy Vanilla, Melon, and Sour Apple, plus misc.)

This setup had sat in a box for months, I really needed to clean it up and rebuild it completely. Took a greenie sponge to get the finish right again.

But, I finally got it in shape and it rocks once again. Hits like a ton of bricks too...I can only do 2sec pulls...but clouds of flavor and very matchy-matchy too.

I always wanted one of those Reactor clones. Not sure why I don't have one! Easily distracted, I guess. :teehee: I do have a Wismec Luxotic MF, which is kind of similar, and is a pretty darn good squonker. I should pull that thing out of mothballs and use it.

This morning I'm vaping:

iJoy Shogun Univ with Dvarw DL RTA clone, Maple Cake diy
VV Requiem squonker with Yachtvape Claymore RDA, Backyard Vanilla remix diy
eLeaf iJust S base with Cthulhu Mjolnir RDA, Sadboy Strawberry Jam Cookie

I love it, it's such a beasty. :D
Kinda surprised you'd like something so chunky and heavy, but yeah, it's a great mod. :)

Size compared to a Pico Squeeze 2...it's taller, deeper, and nearly weighs as much even though it's aluminum and not zinc alloy. The poor little Flave RDA looks kinda lost on it, but damn if it don't vape amazingly with a big single coil and a Molicel P26 18650.

Dovpo Odin 100 with SC Aromamizer Lite, Kilo Birthday Cake
OhmAIO with DotMission bridge, Freeman Red District (strawberry mixed fruit)
Asmodus Pumper 18 with LV Centaurus Solo RDA, Solo Punch diy (strawberry/orange/lime ginger ale punch)

The more I use this Centaurus Solo RDA, the better I like it. I have to keep the airflow almost closed, though, so for someone who likes airy single-coil RDAs, this would be a great choice.

O-Atty v1 clone
Underground SQK clone mod
BluBacco + Berry Stuff DIY
Nifty matching Delrin/Brass DT w/ an 810 adapter

View attachment 196124

O-Atty V1 and V2 are some of my favorite RDAs. The V1 is a little bit challenging to build, but the flavor!!! Actually both versions produce really great flavor. Oldies but goodies, to be sure.

So now having said that, I'm vaping:

Wismec Luxotic BF with O-Atty V1 clone, Solo Punch diy (strawberry/orange/lime/ginger ale)
Aspire Mixx with Taifun GX clone, Pink Bubblegum diy
Aspire Plato with Nautilus 1.8 ohm factory coil, King's Crest Duchess Reserve (Tres Leches cake and butterscotch)

Funny you say that..made me think...hmmm. So I googled it.
Yup, it's a v2.

I have both and this one has zero markings on it.
And, I totally forgot which was which...ack!

Thanks to @nadalama, I'd dug out my old O-Atty v1 and it's Pico mod. :D

It needed a full cleaning and re-wicking for sure, but the Vandyvape Superfine MTL SS316 coil was still fine. Using a quicky split-wick design on it...works nicely.

SO...

O-Atty v1
Eleaf Pico w/ Artic Fox
Caramel Mocha DIY

0.38 ohm @ 255C in TC: Mmmm!
Thx for sparking me to use this old classic combo again.

Taking this out for a test drive today since ppl keep saying how good it is. dont have a squonk for it, wanted to see if it will even suit me (i sort of ended up with it, never sought it out to vape with specifically)
View attachment 196263

I'm sad. My little green Armour Pro died a few months ago. I used the hell out of that thing; it was one of my favorite regulated mods.

I have a black one but it's just not quite as much fun as the green.

I just ordered a Mongrel from FT, thinking of putting it on a Vindicator clone tube if it's good. Tube is black, and I've run short of black RDAs that are the right size.

I think you will really like the Mongrel, a favorite RDA of mine for my squonk mods. Easy to build and wick, great flavor. I tried to order from FT for the 1st time after the Paypal ban last week during their 10% off sale and my Visa CC cancelled the sale as suspicious activity - ugh! I probably need to get a throwaway CC gift card from Walmart.

I usually just use Paypal to buy a gift certificate for myself, then use the GC to pay for the order. Only takes a few seconds and has worked every time for me.

First build, need to wrap my head around just poking wicks through instead of leaving them long. (or try to get long ones more even!)
Working fine so far though.

I've used a lot of RDTAs and the wicks don't need to to be that long to stick down that far into the tank- they should just touch underneath each hole. I found a tutorial on the Peerless RDTA and you can see how the wicks should look. They get saturated when you tip the mod to vape.

Thank you for the confirmation about wicking!
I actually did watch that video and one other one where the wicks were short, but my brain had a hard time believing it!

The Peerless is working really nice so far. I also have the little Serpent RTDA that I've yet to try - maybe soon.

Nice that you are liking RDTAs- I have quite a few RDTAs and I really like how they vape. Haha, I should pull them back out again- I have so many great mods and tanks sitting in my cabinet because I have been using so many AIOs .
I have 2 of the Asmodus Neferius RDTAs and have never used them. They can be used for squonking , I have the Flave RDTA which can be used for squonking too.
Love the Pyros and the Pixy RDTA. I bought an RDTA that works with my Smok Fetch Pro 80, that works great as well.

Pixy RDTA- I have this in silver, black and yellow

Aspire Mixx with Taifun GX clone, Pink bubblegum diy
5AVape clone of Hussar BXR boro mod, Ambition Mods Molen bridge, Sadboy Shamrock Cookie

The Molen bridge isn't half bad in this BXR mod - MUCH better than it was in the Supbox.
