RDA Round-Table Discussion and Lookout

[HeiSINberg]

Has anybody ever seen or have one of these?The Nobunaga Mini rda from Tendou Vapors. A authentic for $45 from Tendou's website. It looks machined well, 3.5mm juice well, large slots for post holes, non spinning center post airflow control, adjustable gold plated 510 and a POM drip tip.

Looks nice to me I like the style. I have been looking for a new rda and an authentic for the price I might order one over the Sapor I been wanting.

Yeah I saw that too, I just started following them not that long ago. I'm more interested in there Shingen atty then this one, though that's a personal preference. It's nice and I like the looks but it reminds me too much of the derringer. Both nice products that look to be quality.

I forgot one more pic. The engravings on the bottom look nice and deep.

Yes I seen that one a while ago too and a few post back here. I like the Shingen but looks like it might be too restrictive but the pics they have posted for it says it is just prototype one and two and are going to work on prototype three for the final version.

I like the looks of this one better. The Nobunaga Mini is bigger than the Derringer so I think the chamber will be slightly bigger and I personally think the derringer is not the best on flavor compared to the Tugboat w/slam cap then the Tugboat with regular cap slightly better then the slam cap. I think somewhat of a chamber, not large, gives the vapor somewhere to billow and circulate with itself accumulating more dense and flavorful vapor rather then basically no chamber in my derringer where I feel like pulling the vapor straight off the coils and not giving it a chance to get as dense.

Just my thoughts but I do like my derringer and use it about everyday so it's not bad on flavor at all.

Heisinberg, from the pics they look like they make some quality stuff. I wouldn't mind picking this up to scout them out as a future manufacturer to watch for future gear. The rda itself might not offer anything new but the quality might be great either way I will let everybody know what I think when I end up picking this up in the next couple weeks.

Honestly I wouldn't mind having either or lol. They both look nice and if there both in that price range then that's an even better deal. If you get anything from them definitely come back and let us know. Hopefully there as quality as they look.

Coval Vapes got the Snapdragon back in stock so I placed an order before they sold out again. Will post impressions as soon as I get it in which, based on my previous orders, should be the middle of next week. Excited about this one.

Looks good to me, like REALLY good! Almost looks like it's made by VLS, but maybe that's the o-rings making me feel that way. Maybe it's something else?

So I have this problem of not paying a whole lot of attention to things I don't have an interest in, and I just found out today that The Hastur RDA is a cross between the Manta V2 and the Vortice--but for a fraction of the cost of those to atties put together. Who here has one and how does it compare to the Manta v2. I am kinda stoked to try it becasue I feel the Manta V2 is just short of being perfect since the airflow could be opened up just a touch.

 

[jhhollier]

I don't have a Manta V2 so I can't do a direct comparison but I do have a Hastur. I think it is a pretty nice atty especially when you factor in its cost which is a measly $22. I find wide open you can get a good lung hit. I don't get much if any restriction. I find the flavor is pretty darn good and the thing doesn't leak at all. Because of the inner airflow sleeve (kinda like the Derringer) it will get a bit messy if you take off the top cap but there's no need to considering it comes with a chuff style drip tip. It also comes with a 510 drip tip adapter if you don't want to use the stock tip. It has a split center post and the build deck is on the smaller side so I don't know how well a more involved build would fit. I don't build like that so I don't care.

There's not much risk in buying one at that price.

I know, right?! That is less than the cost of a damned drip tip from Element Mods (or any number of makers). LOL. Crazy. Crazy, I say!

 

[jhhollier]

I'm surprised that a V2 hasn't been announced yet. Not sure what I would change other than cosmetic things. Maybe bottom airflow that was routed to the top of the top cap?

Did you folks see the "Thump" Catfish has in stock?.... looks like a nice atty.

SXD (Russ) made a video for the atty last night, looks like it should work nicely the way it is for people who just drip. For bottom fed, I'd like to see the bottom squonk hole lower, like Russ mentioned.

Getting it.

 

[vapero]

I was really interested on the hastur but somehow I forgot about it until you brought our up, more I need one again!

Where can you get a Hastur

Where can you get a Hastur

Hastur RDA by Cthulhu Mod

It is pre-order status, though. $3.56 cheapest option for shipping.

Hastur RDA

In stock but $3 more than Smog and shipping is $6 flat rate. Also, I've never used the site so I can't vouch for it.

Not sure about shipping to Canada, Toronto

 

[Mr.Mann]

I keep seeing UK sites.

But if I may get off into a micro rant really briefly: Why (when searching for it) did I see people on FT forums asking for this to be cloned? I mean, sometimes I think people don't even care about price, they simply want to buy that crap. Sorry, it just doesn't make any sense to me. It's just $25-30 shipped. What do they want it for, $10?

 

[TorontoOntario]

People are...well, idiots? I saw that to...disgusting. can we get it state side Mann?

 

[vapero]

Come on guys, I do shop at fasttech, my main issue is that I live in mexico, when I order from the us the shipping usually cost me about 20-30 the shipping time is worse, and the successful delivery completion isn't good and add import duties, I don't have a lot of viable options...
If I want to buy locally then a 30 dollar RDA retails at 70.
Not all of us have the options you have there

It's a great atty and its totally worth the cost but I will give you a heads up, IMO the flavor is on par with a derringer. It's good, but nothing amazing. It certainly won't be in your top three.

I don't normally have a problem with the clone thing cause I get people just don't have the money and in the end it's better then cigs. What I don't like is cloning an already cheap atty, that's just ridiculous to me.
